Craig Gordon

I'm all for a confident swagger Craig, but no more trying to tap it past strikers please

 

Surely must have the best clean sheet record in our history?

 

Dunno about him, but my boxers are never clean whenever the balls at his feet

 

He's a cocky * I'll give him that.

He's due a howler

 

Forster holds it by game ratio I think.

Packy Bonner kept more clean sheets for us than Henke scored goals though.

 

Mental.

Some of the stats/records we've got are mental and they're only going to get blowing away under Rodgers.

Still canny believe we've not conceded in Europe this season.

 

Was there a reason that CG was not coming out for the high ball at corners? I was crapping it every corner that Astana got.

 

Aye,they did give us a few issues with that. Although I did notice we never had players on the post tonight. Maybe it was by order. Although he did "pluck the apple out the tree" on a free kick late on which relieved a bit of pressure.

Had a class wee header in the 1st half when he came out for a ball over the top.

 

Five matches in Europe and zero goals conceded.

 

CG on #StuSigns: "It's good for him to settle and get back to doing what he does best. He was one of our best players last season."

CG: "He's been brilliant for us. I'm glad he's got it sorted and he can now concentrate on football."

CG: "It takes time to sort these things. He is a really important player for us, a really good goal threat."

CG: "If he plays the way he has, teams will be interested."

CG: "It's good to get him for another two years, we are delighted to have him."




CG on @fca_kz win: "We expected it to be tight. It didn’t feel like a 5-0, there were spells where we had to defend."

CG: "We took our chances well, had a bit of fortune with the goals and got a big score-line."

CG: "We have to finish the job; get three points in the league then go there and play a sensible game."


CG on #CelticFC playing style: "We know the way we want to play. We have an organisation and full knowledge of our tactics."


CG: "The manager continuously works on that. We have confidence from the undefeated run and three trophies behind us."


CG: "We know the players around us are great players and can adapt. We have teammates around us that can get us out of anything."


CG on #UCL draw: "When we go to Astana and get the result, we can then look towards the draw

CG: "We've given ourselves a great opportunity. We'll finish the job then look forward to the draw."

CG on @OfficialKillie: "It'll be a different game, away from home on a different pitch."

CG: "A different style is required. We also need to be exact with our passes on that surface."


CG: "We have a young squad, players who came through playing on those surfaces. We've trained this week on the astro."

Beat at his front stick again.

 

This * will be the undoing of us in the CL Group Stages, shades of Rab Douglas under MON all over again (i.e being our weakest link).

If DDV isn't deemed good enough to take his place then we should be signing a new GK as this guy simply isn't good enough and will cost us in the bigger games. I said it was a mistake to not sell him to Chelsea at the time and I still stick by that.

Can't stand him nowhere near good enough to be our No.1 GK especially in the bigger games.

Can't believe he isn't getting the slaughtering on here that he deserves that fourth goal he conceded was a * embarrassment from a supposed experienced professional.

 

He was beat again at the near post but he did make a fine save after that, which would have put us in the *.

 

He was poor at the near post goal but saved us a couple of times.

 

Should have done better with the goal at his near post. Saved us a few times so not holding it against him. The non existent defending didn't help him at all. He was getting no protection at all.

 

Pulled some decent saves. Yes, he got beaten at his near post, but there was slack play that led to the goal, he's not the only one to blame for it.

 

I ain't got much against Gordon he's been overall solid for us but can we not get Forster back and tell him * in with Southampton.

Obviously not but this team is * crying out for someone with Forster's presence
