Celtic v Real Madrid

Just said to my Uncle, if we lost 10-7 that would be progress

I might be pished but I can’t see Ange altering too much. Probably have our starting formation start about 3cm further back than usual. That’s the managers idea of change haha.

 

Computer says no

 

I said to my brother earlier the only thing I am certain of about this game is it's not going to end up 0-0, 6-6 is more likely! I'm just looking for signs of improvement against top teams, if we can keep it competitive and give us hope for the other CL matches that's all I'm asking, anything more than that would be a bonus.

 

Basically how I feel. We're in as good a form as you could hope for such a quality opponent, but on paper they should be scudding us.

5-0 Celtic.

 

As long as the real madrid players are talking about what a tough game they had rather that the wonderful atmosphere afterwards hopefully complaining about losing

 

It’s going to be a massive test for Jenz. He’s been found out of position and beaten in the air a couple of times so far in his time here and has sort of escaped criticism for that. I believe both times Iacovetti scored against us he was to blame? I’ve faith in the guy anyway.

 

They’re just 11 humans on the other side of a white line. Let’s * take it to them. If we lose 3-4 or some * at least we show we can hang.

I’m feeling awfy romantic right now though. Last time they came here they left with a * nose.

VIVA LA QUINCE BRIGADA

 

Genuinely no longer worried about this.

Start the same team as we did against Dundee United and Sevco. If Kyogo is out then GG starts. Be relentless as always.

The atmosphere is going to be electric and win, lose or draw in absolutely certain Ange and the boys will do us proud.

 

Buzzing to hear the CL Anthem and the Celtic Park roar.

Will be some experience for the lads in the team that haven’t played CL with us. (Everyone except McGregor?)

 

* it, why not? If anyone can orchestrate that it'll be Ange!

 

Especially against Benzema, who has been electric this year.

 

The big danger will be Benzema, he's lethal in the air and will probably get on a lot of crosses, that Colak had a few chances today and is a medicore big dumpling.

I don't fear them though as they struggle to play well more often than not despite winning the League and CL, any time I watch them they're boring and don't dominate games or play well. They play in moments with individuals and breakaways.

We should get plenty of the ball against them and be on the attack a lot, just need to take our chances, Kyogo will be a miss as you'd prefer his movement and whatever.

Also I feel we are just due to do a big team again.

 

I genuinely think that we have it in us to win. A massive task obviously and huge underdogs, but as an attacking force this is as good as I’ve ever seen a Celtic side.

I’m going for 3-1 and us to blow them away with a fast start. Call me crazy but I just think we can do it.

Unfortunately I’m going to be stuck on a flight back from London for most of the game. Could have had a ticket too.

 

Think i am glad to be working for this one as i am not sure my nerves could take it.

 

Win lose or draw I just want to see us put on a show and play the exact same way and threat them the exact same as we would Ross County or the huns..

This is the the biggest and most successful club side in the world and especially over the past decade but fuckem.. we are Glasgow Celtic... into them Bhoys

 

Last time Ancelotti brought the reigning European champions to Celtic Park we know what happened, football can be a funny old game like that, history can often repeat itself

 

2-2

 

Not actually too nervous about this one yet, probably cuz I’m not really expecting we’ll get a result.
It will be a high scoring game I feel.
I can see us getting a goal or 2, but they’ll cause us all kinds of trouble running at us and putting crosses in the box.

Think it’ll be a 4-2 loss, but I think we’ll show that we can compete with, and cause problems, for the top top teams in Europe.

 

The older he gets, the more he seems to be morphing into Roy hattersley. One for the kids lol.
