Ross County 0 - 2 Celtic

Yep. I'm over it now..

Was a sore one but how sweet will this be when we wrap this up. I'm gonna terrorise them about it..

 

There's no reason we should be nervous for this. We beat Ross County 4-0 going on 7 last time. Aye it was at Parkhead but they'll be more inclined to attack at home.

Sunday was a poor result, but we've still got an incredible record domestically, keep the faith lads.

 

it is ross county away.
they will sit in, play compact, be physical and try balls over the time.
we will have more corners, chances and shots on target - if we cannot win here we dont deserve to win the league.
an early goal with a good first half performance.
any chance of working on attacking corners, free kicks and shots outside the box.
move the ball quick and make good decisions coming in from the flanks

 

first cut is the deepest - was a keek game we didnt look like we wanted it.
we looked less fit than them - forrest getting left for dead showed our want and desire.

 

CCV injured?
Jullien playing midweek to get some mins under his belt?
Any idea what guchi can be like him or bitton (prob start bitton) some height and breaking balls etc.

 

CCV looked like cramp imo but dunno defo think that’s why jullien played though

 

given his height etc - extra body and height in the defence when we went 1-0 seemed smart, any idea why bitton wasnt on the bench. i think he could have helped stop the third man runs from airfield.

shocking team performance - a win would have been the icing on the cake.

villareal knocked out by liverpool, red bull do the business and hearts turn them over in the final.

 

Worried about this one. Half the first team is injured or carrying one. Need to score a couple early to de-stress it for players and supporters

 

I know that points are always dropped through a season, but with 5 games left you simply dont * drop points against teams like Ross County, and i dont mean to disrespect them.

Cant wait to * rip them apart, because that is what will happen

3-0 to the good guys. Need to respond from Sunday

 

Genuinely don't know who will be fit for this one after being forced to sub players due to injuries on Sunday.

What Sunday has shown is how light we are in some areas - left back, center back, defensive mid, striker.

Ajetti, Boli, Jullien and Soro all to leave in the summer and to be replaced with real quality that will be more reliable/push for a first team place, please.

I'd want to replace Barkas as well but I'd be happy just to see the back of him anyway we can.

 

Ross county not lost at home since we beat them in December, well that’s * changing!

 

This will not be an easy game ,,,,they are fighting for a place in Europe, they are 1 point away from a place in the top four which gets them into Europe with some cash to put in the coffers.
Anje will not take them lightly neither will the players. This will not be a St. Johnstone walk over , i wish it was . We want 3 points .

 

Pulled this from transfermarkt.

Other than Hibs - where we were just very poor on the day imo, the other games came early in the season when the squad was having it's teething problems and could be got at. He's a * ref but really shouldn't be a superstitious factor to beating Ross County. Their home form is more of a concern but I strongly fancy us to show up and put them to the sword.

Biggest game of the season for me now .

* brickin it

 

I see this being a tight game, county have it all to play for and I expect them to be well organised but that said we should have too much for them amd we should win by a couple. Players need to be right on it though, any signs of lethargy and we might be in bother. Ange really needs to get the team spot on and that means a change or 2

 

Need to start with the same intent as we did against County and St Johnstone in recent games.

Don’t give them a chance to get any foothold in the game. Don’t give them a second on the ball. Relentless pressure is the only way to bear these teams who want to sit behind the ball.

Big GG has to start if he’s ready. A big one-touch finisher is exactly the type of striker we need for this run-in.

 

I think I'd like to try Mcgregor a bit further forward here in prep for the next game v them. If not from he start then a bit later.

I reckon Hatate needs a rest from the start, and he would make a great impact sub as well as Rogic, Abada and Kyogo.

3-0
