    He's much better on the right if there's not a lot of space on the pitch, if there's a lot of room he's good either side.

    so whats that 3 draws 3 defeats ?

    we are obviously in transition, we are definately worse than last season, but last season we had virgin van * and he was a cracking footballer it was a big big loss losing him

    the slow passing play that goes all the way back to gordon strachans time he got the first team and reserves playing in that style didnt he

    i think in ronnies first season we seen johansen playing in the hole and when he didnt have the ball the team pressed hard the opponents with johansen being the chaser down at the front

    we really havent got that style going this season at all is that strategy finished are we not going to play like that anymore ?

    He was being diplomatic too. When asked if he thought Deila was able to take them forward next season, Strachan completely dodged the question.

    Conceded 11 in the group stage last year, 12 this year. So statistically you're not wrong. When I watch the games though I see a difference. Our defence is dodgy as * right now. I had a level of trust in van Dijk and Denayer, they were more reliable players.

    Perhaps it says something about Ronny Deila's organisational skills that we conceded almost as many goals with far superior defenders. One could easily reach the conclusion that he's just pretty clueless when it comes to setting a team up to be solid defensively.

    yep but we were more of an attacking force and in actual fact controlled possession a lot aswell

    1 year later we cant hold on to possession more than a few passes before we lose it and ofcourse for definate thats gonna cause goals

    so we have definately weakened since last season and by quite a bit, things could be improved if we got a * decent quality european or english striker though

    I like him on right, but we don't have anyone effective on left. For that reason I prefer Jamsie on left and GMS on right. That's least of my issues.

    For me we are so predictable. We pass side to side. Jamsie is probably our most direct player. If we had 1 or 2 more with his desire and pace coupled with a few more with Tierney's passion, never say die attitude, I would be more optimistic.

    We are pedestrian, predictable and after watching The Bhoys for over 50 years I never thought I'd say this of a Celtic Team, we are boring.

    are you sure its the players making the wrong pass!

    or could it be that further up the field like in midifeld and attack we aren't threatening the opposing teams formation/defences and therefore they then press us so high that it puts our passing under pressure ???

    1-1 but the only positive to take from that match was our goal. Simunovic looked good again too I suppose and Forrest.

    Nadir Ciftci needs shipped to Wigan in January.

    Tbh a 1-1 result in Istanbul isn't bad at all, once again we would've won if it wouldn't have been for 1 individual mistake.
