    Ajax kept us contained very well. In possession we were terribly lost and wasteful, didn't create enough and when we did, the final ball was either non existent or inept. Stokes could have been through on twice. Last home night yet to come, hopefully we'll get the win.

    Absolutely * abysmal. Players were * and Lenny was utterly clueless. I walked out of the pub when he took Stokes off and kept that other balloon on. I've honestly never been more annoyed by a Celtic game in my life. * ragin tbh

    We might be good defensively but we are * hopeless with the ball. Stokes and Van Dijk were the only ones that used the ball well and looked as if they knew what they were doing when they had the ball

    Very disappointing tonight but you can't say it was entirely unexpected. No proper frontman, not clinical, not creative etc. etc. We defended reasonably well though.

    All is not lost though... if we can beat Milan and Barca beat Ajax the group is still open

    All I can really say is....I've seen more balls from a *.

    I can accept a defeat if we actually show some cajones...but that was *.

    Subs that were made were also wrong. Commons and Sammy for me were rank rotten from the start.

    * that we only looked interested after they scored.

    Ah well. Onto Milan.

    Europa league it may look like, but just remember........We were told we'd get * ALL.
    We've played four games....and played * in one.

    don't know about you lot but...I'm going to look at the positives in this group of European Champions

    Tactical ineptitude, wrong IX, poor subs and downright laziness are the reasons we lost...bitterly disappointed win was there for the taking.

    Time to start playing McGeouch,Rogic,Atajic and Balde.The 1st team players will have to learn that their place in team is not guaranteed.Dismal display tonight apart from the defence.Was bringing back Commons,Sammy and Forrest too soon for all 3.

    He won two away games. Let's all applaud that. He is clueless tactically for the most part, the players that wear the green and white at the moment are imposters. No drive, no determination, motivation. No * balls.

    Always feel optimistic before these away European games but I don't know why- we were awful tonight. Really disappointing again. We just don't have what it takes middle to front to win these games. Our passing and possession is laughable at times. We are wasteful with any set pieces also, which was such a strong point last year.

    I thought Samaras was particularly bad tonight. He should be our main player but he was pathetic- didn't make a single run with the ball up the wing all night. Kept giving it away as well.

    Ah well.

    There was no one in our team tonight that was able to put incisive pass , no one to make clever run off the ball.I know Browns decision making can be questionable at times,but tonight we also lacked leadership.We got nothing from Sammy in that aspect,instead he looked lifeless.Sometimes ,or most of the time ,in away games we just lack balls,to be honest.

    That makes it alright then. It was to be expected. So let's just forget about it. Utter *.

    And what? Two games? He is tactically clueless and it doesn't take a professional football manager to notice his excessive flaws. Outsmarted constantly by better managers.

    I thought he worked hard and used the ball well. His shooting was horrendous as usual though.

    The problem is Lenny brings in new guys and doesn't play them. Then if you look at the quality who's been brought in to play midfield, Biton and Rogic are just not what we needed.

    Who said forget about it? These problems haven't just appeared tonight, they've been lingering for a while so that's why it wasn't unexpected. What they were lacking in was keeping the ball for any length of time.
