    The midfield should be McGregor hatate and O'Reilly...it's also time to see what ideguchi is all about. Rogic has been * since coming back and biton has been given too many chances and shown * all. I'd also leave Forrest out the 1st team and bleed dembele and doak, we need freshness and the young guys can lift a dressing room by making the more experienced guys realise their level should be better especially if the young guys are doing it.

    He wouldn't be one I'd immediately point at today.

    I think he needs to influence games more regularly as he has the ability, but he wasn't the worst today.

    We need to change it up in midfield quickly for something fresh. Teams also seem to have figured us out a bit tactically, a change of shape might be needed for the final 10.

    Ideguchi, McGregor (8) and O'Reily, for me at home to St Mirren. Ideguchi a specialist in that role and McGregor is better with less defensive shackles.

    Don’t particularly rate his range of passing. Great at other things, but he’s more of a tidy passer.

    Feel like sometimes having that option of range from the number 6 role gets us up the park quicker.

    Midfield in general was stinking, not winning anywhere near enough second balls. Not a single one of them even wants to compete for a header. No anticipation.

    Defiantly need to change something, I would go Bitton CMcG and Matt O'R.

    Proving once again he's better slightly further forward in MF with a CDM behind him

    Caught that flush. Great strike.

    He should be doing more (not the only one).

    Thought that was the best he's played in a few games.

    Meanwhile, Postecoglou has reiterated his respect for captain Callum McGregor. The midfielder will continue to wear the protective facial mask as he recovers from a double cheek fracture sustained in a Scottish Cup tie against Alloa in January.

    “I’m not sure when it’s due off but it’s certainly not affecting him,” said the Celtic manager. “He’s comfortable with it but he’ll be guided by the medical team.

    “People shouldn’t dismiss it because there’s a reason he’s wearing it. It takes a bit of courage to wear something like that - and not just because of the way he looks.

    “He’s protecting something that maybe others wouldn’t play with. It’s a reminder for people.”

    Penalties should always be hit by strikers....itsntheir bread and butter to score goals and with an uncontested strike at goal from 12 yards is one they should be all over.
