[Official TC Thread] Celtic F.C v Paris Saint-Germain; Tuesday 12 Sept, 7.45pm. BT Sport 3

Ye and sadly the powers that be dont seem to give a *.

 

come back in 10 days when we've reamed you!!

 

The hardman quickly threw a hissyfit..

Giuy..

 

Get back on do the bouncy weeman and come back on when yous progres by the preliminary preliminary rounds of the Europa league and can overcome a wee Luxembourg pub team

 

The game has changed, we're further away from the top of the game than we've ever been.

That's not a criticism against us either, it's just how much of an exclusive club the elite table of football has become.

 

Ten + years of Russian gangster cash and Middle Eastern oil money pumped into five or six top clubs,
ten + years of rocketing income from Fox / Sky coverage deals, and of course millions in sponsorship from online/live betting. The elite few clubs are getting bigger and wealthier and further away from their roots.

Its the way of the World.

PSG will win the CL this year.

 

Ooft sair yin tonight.

 

Like I've said before, it's the way we play just now under BR. Great when we are the dominant team, but leave ourselves very open to stronger opponents who can punish us, heavily.

Our team is just not built, designed or have the skill to soak up pressure and frustrate stronger and better teams like WGS, MON or even Lenny teams done at home. Could you imagine our current team parking the bus against PSG or Bayern? Nope, me either. We could try, but I fear the result would be the same , although maybe not as insulting. That's where I think BR has to learn in this comp.

Teams are far better than us and we cannot afford to go all hung ho all the time and need to adapt a more restrictive approach. Yes, it maybe be unpleasant on the eye, or even boring, or dare I say it anti-football, but at least the defeat might not be as heavy and if we could keep the score line in these games to a draw or 0-1, all it takes is one chance.

Having said that, I think BR has a tough job on his hands because in order to do this he needs a fairly solid defence. Ours is not. Therefore, what's the point in delaying the inevitable. Try to play to our strengths. I think he tried that tonight and, against real quality opponents, were badly found out. If he wants to change it, he'll need to wait til the Jan window and buy a solid CB.

 

That's the best I've ever seen a visiting team play at Celtic Park tbh.

They were very, very good.

That fifth goal from Cavani was unreal - Henrikesque.

I think it's between them and Madrid this year.

 

Did you just have a shot of that emojis spliff?
Think we'll get our arses handed to us there as well mate, no looking forward to that one

 

Pitch invasion in one thing but going to actively kick an opposing team player is absolute thuggery. Embarases the fans & club. Absolute *.

 

When you look at the teams being bankrolled by arabs and russians they are in a different place from us and we wont catch up as we play by the rules and the flaunt them and toothles eufa can do nothing as thet wont kuck them out of the tournament for fear of losing sponsorship money

 

Ah boys. That cavani header is sensational seeing it on tv now.

 

You gonna help pay the fine if your so proud, aye?

 

I said the same thing when that boy Attacked Dida.
