    I give us every chance at taking 6 points from Want.

    That was a tough ask. We dealt with it and had lots of nervy moments but overall we were the better team. I think we should have went with Kyogo and Eddie from the start as that is our strongest option. I am still more focused on the League but it was refreshing to know so early on that we can deal with the opposition for Europe. A few stupid mistakes but take it as experience and deal with it.

    It seems to be in Celtic's DNA.

    Even O'Neill's Celtic conceded stupid goals in Europe, its why I always laugh when Hartson and Sutton act as if we havent seen it before.

    Starfelt facing away from goal and still puts it in his own net. Only Celtic :giggle1:

    I think Starfelt is the one we need to help, I say help because I think he has the qualities to be a celtic player. Turning on him won't help, Ange signed him but he's just not settled so
    My granda was from naples and my brother is a West ham fan lol I'd take that. I really want Napoli

    Yes we rode our luck tonight but how many times have we lost due to bad luck. We all know where we are weak and we all know that we need 3 or 4 players in however, we have a board that, even though big Ange clearly knows what he's doing, are still * about in coming up with the goods. As a few others have said, we are a job in progress and if anyone had said to me that we would eliminate AZ in Europe after the hearts game, then I would have just said absolutely no chance

    After all what happened even before tge season started we have really done more than could expected. For the first time in years we have overcome a better team, I think we can say that. They had a great season and the team stayed together, unlike ours. I didn't expected this when we draw Alkmaar and I'm really really pleased now. But the game left it marks, haven't been so exhausted after watching a game for dome time :giggle1:

    Great job boys!!

    Oh so glad to qualify . Hopefully we can learn from tonight's game , and improve again . We are due an easier group than we usually get drawn in . A couple of major players missing tonight , and still room for a couple of new signings . This season should be much better than last season's debacle .

    Hopefully Ange learns from this, away ties in Europe aren’t Dundee or St Mirren at home. I get he has a way of playing, but there needs to be a time of reigning it in and being more tactically sound.

    I know its early days and I have asked this question before but at what stage would you look to get Ange on a longer deal.

    I think we will all have to ensure that we have adequate supplies of clean underwear this season as I reckon we are going to see a lot of games like that under Ange's rule. Oh, and don't bother asking Charlie Adam's sister if she has any spare

    Weathering the pressure they put on us for a good half hour in the 2nd half and not conceding and then turning the screw the other way when Eddy came on is a big feather in our cap.

    Ultimately - job done.
