    3-0 flatterd us today but hopefuly the 3-0 win will give the players the confidance boost they need.

    Also, Robson looked 100x better than Donati in the midfield than Donati ever has.

    Not as convincing win as it should have been,we seem not to be gelling as a unit hopefully it will be better for next saturday.
    Samaras should start game with skippy.

    Samaras is definitely upfront vs the Huns. Who'll partner him? I certainly wouldn't put McDonald or JVoH. I think of McGeady upfront.

    nah tbh, robo was disapointing. the game was screaming out for sno really. and once he came on we looked a wee bit more composed in the middle

    Well, he missed quite a few headers... It's up to WGS. Though JVoH was my fave striker, Samaras is currently better than him in terms of composure. We need to make Cuellar and Weir soil their pants...I'd play the best crossers we have on wide midfield positions, to feed Georgios with ammunition.

    I'd stick with Robson for next week.. Agree he didn't impose himself today and at times you wouldn't have know he was playing , but when he did get on the ball he never wasted it and he did link up play well , and when he got a shooting chance it was a sweetly hit shot with no backlift that stung the keepers palms.. As Keltoi said he doesn't have the pace to play as an out and out wideman and often he'll take the ball 10 or 15 yards and as soon as a man is on he'll turn and play the ball back to a team mate.. I still think his composure , experience , shooting ability and clean tackling gets him a start next week instead of Donati or Sno..

    Strachan was making noises during the week about going for it in every game now.. Hopefully that means 2 up front for Ibrox , or at the very least an attacking minded midfield 5 with Hartley holding..
    I'd be surprised if we see even 2 from Naka , Donati and Sno playing next week..

    I thought Robson gave the team a far better shape i really like his style of play it gives you a bit more style and drive from the middle to the front.

    Robson did 100x better than Donati ever has?


    FFS unless you count being scottish makes you 100x better.

    He was poor today besides that one nice play.

    samaras did look really good when he came on today. but i think hes more of an impact player and is better when he comes off the bench. can you imagine him coming on aginst the huns, when weir and cueller are knackered...he will run a mock.

    Iontach was right , robson did do little , a throw away comment about him being 100x better than donati ever has been is ridiculous

    Brown gets the same backing on here and i think he's been mince all season

    sorry *, the game was crying out for someone with more composure than sno! cmon sno, wot game has he changed? wot does he bring to a celtic jersey? and an answer to robson, he would be far suited to his natural position, he just does not look comfortable in the middle of the park, basically the whole midfield still looks disjointed, anyways here's to next saturday! :celt_2::celt_2::celt_2: 3 in a row, dont lose hope..... yet........

    I'm no' disputing the fact that Robson was pretty poor, or that Brown has been poor all season. I'm disputing the fact that fans favour Scots over other players, which is a load of *' havers if you ask me.
