    * them all.

    Go to each of their houses, cut off their balls and * and serve it them for dinner.

    Then break the circuit to make sure the heating and electricity run up a smelly dirty bill at lawwells gaff making him cry and this ruin his favourite bedsheets

    I can't say I know who I'd bring in as manager, or who's realistically within our budget, but if the board are serious about winning the league this season, it's something they need to do in my opinion. It's a drastic call but necessary now. I don't think the issue is with the players.

    Edouard

    Against most of the SPL, playing 3 centre backs is a bit overkill because our wingers seem to come back into defence and it almost becomes 5 at the back with no out ball like today.

    Should play 4 at the back with the two full backs playing as high as they are playing just now and providing the same width.

    A midfield three of Brown, McGregor and Christie has more legs and dynamic rather than Ntcham in there (absolute utter waste of a jersey)

    The front three are proven goalscorers and can come up with the creativity to carve open more teams. They are the three who have won us treble trebles so they can be trusted to do the job.

    Sadly everything seems to point to the manager.We have the players (board seems to have backed the manager)but they are not performing and that is down to the manager.

    I guess the solution is a new manager,or maybe lenny should drop a few regulars .I think part of the problem is some player seem to play regardless of form.

    To me the likes of Brown,Ntcham,mcgregor seem to play some part in every game regardless of form.Maybe im wrong but Ntcham seems to get a run out every game we play and yet you can be sure if he starts he will be subbed before the game ends.

    I mean whats the point,the dogs on the street know he will play * and be subbed so why boher..hes *.Again its down to the manager so either the manager cops on(unlikely at this stage)or he goes.

    Formation defo needs addressing. Feel like we dont quite fit in to a 3-5-2 or 4-3-3 atm.

    Dont think eddy would press down, guy is so languid and nonchelant at times. Defo dont think you could with Ajeti and Edouard together but need to find a way to get them playing.

    Midfield has been too lightweight and now getting dominated.. id bring in a Brown replacement now. Someone who can offer more on the ball. I think its achievable.

    Posted this on the tactics thread but equally as applicable here:



    We need to get back to basics. A best 11 that we stick to, two up top, no false 9’s or * like that.

    3-5-2
    GK - torn in this but would honestly give Bain a chance
    CB - Julien
    CB - Bitton
    CB - Ajer
    RWB - Frimpong
    LWB - Laxalt
    CM - Brown
    CM - McGregor
    AM - Christie
    CF - Edourd
    CF - Griffiths (going with him over Ajeti based on those two being the two that ended last season, and played our best football under Lennon)

    4-5-1
    GK - Bain
    RB - Frimpong
    CB - Ajer
    CB - Julien
    LB - Laxalt
    CM - Brown
    CM - McGregor
    AM - Christie
    LW - Mo
    RW - Forrest
    CF - Edouard or Ajeti


    3-5-2 is my preferred option but you need to do it properly. No forcing in Mo as a second striker

    The three at the back seemed to work last year but it just will not work now with the current players, management and tactics.

    We saw today how the three CB’s just passed the ball to each other the whole game - story of every game this season.

    One of the CBs need to be sacrificed for another CAM at SPL level I’m afraid to say.

    Lenny needs help with tactics and formations , if he is too stubborn to get help in then it will cost him the Celtics manager job as we have been abysmal so far this season since Duff left !
