Arsenal v Celtic

would have won it if walcott didnt rip mulgrew a new * for 1 and 3rd goal

 

Potential to become a Celtic legend. He's got a lot of drive and fight in him, he's skilled and looks dangerous when he moves forward. Man of the match for me.

 

Charlie Mulgrew is for cover only. I can see him being useful when we have teams pinned back but against pacey wingers he gets exposed. Twardzik looks a fantastic prospect. Ki was bad when the midfield was congested, but much better late on.

Crosas was disappointing. It frustrates me cuz we all know the guy can play better and has a good range of passing.

Cha being in our defense is a great boon as his speed will help us not get countered so easily. I think his background as an non-pro footballer (until age 23 and was discovered while playing around at university) really helped him develop as an athlete first (fast, never stops running).

Sammy and MAF actually played well together for once and Hooper looks a good poaching compliment to either. Murphy is decent cover and Rassa is for when we have people under siege as a 3rd striker.

I liked the central defensive pairing for the most part but maybe Misun would provide a speedier compliment to Jos who seemed to show a decent reading of the game. Rogne>Loovens based on today

 

I didn't see the formation or personnel that we ended the match with but Im guessing it was far more attacking then the one we used for the first 45 minutes..

What has been shown through the Braga game and the first half of the Lyon game and certainly the first half today is when you play more cagey and sacrifice a forward player to try and get hold of midfield (or even deeper than the middle of the pitch in our case) you simply invite pressure and allow the majority of the game to played in your own half.. I had to do stuff and missed most of the last 25 minutes today but sounded like we went for it.. Im not sure from reading posts if Lenny changed the formation from what looked like a containing 4-1-4-1 that we played for the first 50 to 60 minutes but much prefer to see us try to take the game to opponents and not leave players isolated in the oppositions half to do the job of 2 men on their own..

 

Lennon has to admit to himself after that, that a new LB is priority.

 

Not done enough to prove that he would be better than Zaluska. I would prefer if we got another keeper in. I honestly though Zaluska could make the step up to number 1, but he has made a lot of mistakes.

 

Juarez is a treat to watch. He seems to really enjoy wearing the hoops.

Spot on, Juarez was class ! Great player has a lot in his locker, seems pacey, full of energy and will run all game and I like how direct he is. Defo man of the match for me !

 

McGeady might be off to russia just announced on commentary in game!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

fairplay how good did we look for 20 mins of the second half, if we start against braga like that i think we will be fine, only friendlies but draw 2-2 to lyon, maybe could have beat arsenal - Plenty of postives their!!

 

I want another keeper - I just meant for wednesday.....I cant bear to think of us 4-0 up and zaluska misreads the flight of the ball on a last minute freekick

 

you cant take any positives from the defence

 

* we should have won it in the end! never mind great effort against a very good team. very pleased with the weekend. seriously need to concentrate a lot better though.

 

Regular PK taker for S. Korea.

 

Can you not?? I can.... Every attack that got through us went down the left side. Did u see chamakh get a look in?? Nobody got down the right or through the center. Says it all.

 

Fair enough I mean confidence is such a major factor with keepers I would think he would need to stick with Cervi now. I cant imagine that Zal is brimming with confidence after being subbed at half time after the goal he let in.

 

Nonsense! Hooiveld and Rogne looked a good partnership, and Cha Duri looked good again when he come on

 

our defence is a disgrace lennon better get there act together for wedensday....
mulgrew is a terrible signing and STILL doesnt solve our left back problem....
we looked bright towards the end of the game with sammy juarez moloney and fortune
But our fans were behind the team today and i hope wednesday is the same BRING ON THE BRAGA !!!
