    Depends on opposition, that lot are not great so, once we got on top, should have burried them. OK, so not going to dominate for 90min but the worry for me is when they did have their spell, we could not turn the tied, guess that's where substitutions come into play. Bitton is so one paced, we just needed someone to get stuck in, win dirty ball and then work our way back into the game.

    A strange one this. Would happily have took 1-1 before the game but couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. Their keeper was pretty much the only one making saves, kept them in the game in fact, yet they could have won it. Still, a good result with an away goal. Fingers crossed for next week.

    On the first half performance this tie should have been put to bed their keeper saved them.

    Confident we can take them at home.

    My only concern was the way we (once again!) struggled to deal with a 'press'.

    The contrast between the before and after was worrying.

    The twitter from the CPH police, was the 2nd ed.... the original one, was removed within minutes, because it had some funny errors in it.

    the article is in danish, but i'm pretty sure you'll figure it out ;) Needless to say, that someone at CPH police, brought a truck full of cake for work, due to the unfortunate spelling abilities.

    And it was a pleasure having you guys in CPH once more, Celtic fans are properly our favorite fans combined with the (Edit) Cliftonville lads.

    A positive for me is that even though they had more posession and territorial advantage in the 2nd half they only had one good chance so we defended well. During that time we also created a couple of good chances though I thought we could have hit them on the break better with a bit more composure. Was hoping Soro would be the guy to get stuck in we're looking for but might be too early for him though if Christie and Broony are out then we might need to risk him.

    Honestly, this means to me we have to stick to the 3-5-2 even if it mean playing Bolingoli, Klimaka/Bayo, whatever.

    What gave us fresh legs and improved the performance considerably after the two bad matches against the huns was the new formation. We came back to the 4231 and the team becomes predictable again.

    Even a team with Bolingoli, Simunovic, Hayes, Bayo, whatever, would be in paper better than FC Copenhagen and good enough to defeat them. These guys are much better than the Malmo FF, Red Star Belgrade, FC Midtjylland players that defeated FC Copenhagen this year

    It was going so well until the HunField at the end.

    1-1 is a good result and if Eddie had been at the top of his game it could've easily been 3 or 4-1.

    4-2-3-1 was the correct formation with both foresight and hindsight on last night's game.

    We're still in the driving seat to progress.

    Taylor and Elhamed at full back would have us looking a lot stronger in future games I feel, hopefully we can get them on the park together.

    The fact we are disappointed in a score draw in the last 32 of the Europa league is testament to the performance levels the team has given us this season. In the cold light of day it’s a solid position to be in. If we play like the first half at paradise, we will be out of sight by half time

    I hope Broony is able to recover from his injury as soon as possible . He remains the "beating heart" of the team . Although the 2nd half performance was way below the standard set in the 1st half , overall we should be grateful we got a score draw away in Europe . And as long as we qualify , everything is great . Well done to the travelling Celtic fans , who made themselves heard in their vocal backing for the team . And "made friends on the journey" too !

    How tha * did the referee come to conclusion that it was a hand ball no action towards the ball ,arms is a natural position when jumping ,Christ, Christie has his eyes closed during the most of it.A completely * up decision!
