    Happy enough with that so far. Everybody has played well except Izaguirre and maybe Forrest. Wanyama has played very well.

    Need to take off Izzy, maybe move Mulgrew back and bring on Tony Watt and put him on the left as when he's been on before he has had quite a few good runs down the left.

    good first half, started to get a bit slack towards the end but never the less.... I've been very impressed by Miku in that half. Izzy should come off for Lassad, who goes to left mid... we need the height, Matthews to left back, Lustig to right back, Charlie to centre back.

    Im not that dissapointed, its our first CL games in ages and some of the guys have never played in CL, give them time to settle. No one said the CL was easy, this is what playing at the highest level is all about. possesion 55% for celtic.

    It's as if he's been passing with a blindfold on. Who is on the bench, especially defenders and DM-s?

    Not good enough. Benfica are there for the taking.

    Izzi has been * dreadful, needs to get a * grip or get him out the door.

    Miku has done quite well.

    Not a bad half, no real service up front, Brown doing a lot of dirty work in midfield, Izzy poor.

    Aye I agree, Izzy made too many mistakes and Forrest just doesn't look up for it.

    Would maybe encourage Chico and Forrest to release the ball a tad earlier from the flanks to try and get Miku involved in the game. Other than that, it's ok - keeping a cool head during a cagey affair is essential for European success. Worried about Izzy tho.

    I wanted Watt to start the game.

    Still haven't changed my mind. He deserves game-time.

    He is playing very well but he's limited in what he can do. Need someone with a bit more skill and attack minded. Would like to see this new bhoy.

    I hope Lenny takes Izzy off. It obviously needs to be done, he's getting less and less comfortable the more mistakes he makes which will cost us a goal.

    A lot of nervy play by Celtic which is understandable but if Lennon gets them to settle down and play a bit they will do Benfica ,Im not impressed by them at all ,The game is Celtics if they want it bad enough.
