    We’ll be missing the two that do next weekend with McGregor suspended as well.

    That’s the real proper test for Mooy

    Absolutely. All credit to the captain for knowing that had to be done.

    Well, it's a win and back to the top of the table.

    But Ange has a couple of issues that needs to be figured out, to say the least.

    Tut tut. You’d never have criticised Neil Lennon after a win. Where’s the loyalty man? I thought you were holier than all of us.

    An overall poor performance, some players have lost some serious form. 2 things that stand out is how wasteful we are in front of goal and have been of late. No matter how poor we have been, we are still creating chances but failing to take them. It is not just 1 or 2 players, but they are all at it.
    Secondly, even when we scored the second and took back control of the game, it felt like we were liable to gift them a goal, we looked like we were 1 pass or 1 poor decision away from throwing this game away, and so it almost proved with Calmac being sent off. I can't help think that if that was an away game today coming back from the International break, we would have dropped points. Happy with the 3 points though we really need to up our game, getting CCV back is going to help that.

    3 points by any means.

    We move on.

    We could've easily scored 6 there but didn't. We need to take more of them!

    Beaton was * horrific as per.

    Knocked the confidence a bit the last 2 games. Need a good performance in the next game.

    We lack a lot of composure in the final third at times.

    That can’t be coached.

    Does that make the St Mirren game a pre-international hangover then ???

    Thank * for that.

    Absolutely outrageous performance from Celtic to be honest.

    Misplaced passes, lack of determination, awful decision making, awful finishing, tempo nowhere to be seen and errors all over the park all day.

    There’s even times when a player is in space and not even an attempt is made to make the pass. I remember Ange shouting and swearing at the team for not taking those passes last season.

    There’s times when there’s space for a player to run into to receive a wide pass and the run isn’t even being made - inexplicable.

    To be honest, I expect a slightly drop in performance when we lose both CCV and Starfelt from the starting lineup, but it shouldn’t be knocking us this much.

    We are so much better than what we’re showing right now. There’s no excuse for the individual errors laced throughout our game.

    We had performance like that last season Dundee Utd 1-0, Dundee 3-2, Motherwell 1-0, performances like that will always happen, on days like that the most important thing is to get 3 points so job done, hopefully CCV back asap

    In all seriousness though, yes. Our form has dropped of late and it needs sorted. It happens. Better now when we’re on top than having to chase though.

    Need CCV back pronto

    3 points in the bag but our performance was poor.I said after the last game the response to that defeat was crucial and sadly we didnt get the response that was needed.

    We seem to be struggling to score,maybe its bad luck but what ever the reason we need to get it sorted or we could find we have a challenge on our hands.

    And whats the story with the refs jersey?its looks like hes wearing it backward..* looking.
