    Lovely going into the international break top of the league, then a game against those cheeky chappies, those silly billys that think they are hot *!

    Excellent!

    Fantastic result given the exertions of last week and that the central midfield was non existstant. Thought Erik and Kolo were excellent. Three great strikes for the goals

    3points in the bag not the best performance with Aberdeen sitting in thought our midfield gave the ball away cheaply at times . Rogic and Britton very laboured with the latter looking like he had run a marathon when he was subbed. Happy with the points and we still have work to do with the defending didn't think the De Vries looked much better than Gordon.

    I didn't think it was a great game tbh, but that's to be expected after Tuesday night.


    What was impressive was the quality of our goals, also liked the fact that Brendan changed things after an hour, Roberts looked to have picked up where he left off before the injury.

    Was worried when I seen it was Madden refereeing the game but he never got much wrong which was surprising apart from a couple of tackles from Aberdeen players that could have been yellow cards and he let Bitton off who possibly should have got a yellow for persistent fouling

    Fkn great match,can't wait to go again.Auld lads next to me were funny as fk!

    A few howlers in defense,Can't wait to see the highlights. Toure was quality,Dembele seemed a bit out of it.Must have been in a huff about something ( always seems to have the hump)

    Come on you Bhoys in Green!

    First half we were great until we scored then dropped the pace until they equalised, soon as we picked up the pace we made spaces everywhere just too slow at times. Again culprits being Brown & Bitton in the second half were far too slow and invited pressure on.

    We let them in it and sat too deep not getting a grip of the ball, thought all the subs made a great impact especially Paddy always getting passed a few. Rogic was outstanding at times.
    Sviatchenko and Toure at the back are * solid, definitely our best pairing.

    Take the points and a nice 4-1, the sheep done well but end of the day they only had 1 shot on target.

    Awesome match. My first home league game in a few years, loving being in Glasgow. Griffiths's goal was great, and I thought Madden let them off with a few fouls. Loved Sinclair's running to win the penalty.

    I was in the south stand right behind the dugout, Sviatchenko was good after the game he came over, gave his shirt away, and did autographs and photos. He then asked Leigh to come over to give something to a wee lad at the front. Nice touch from Leigh for his celebration too.

    Thought it was a tough game to assess but overall it's very positive in the sense we've just came back from Israel pumped our biggest challengers 4-1 and for long spells never gave them the ball, their equaliser was the proverbial "against the run of play" that sort of stopped our passing game and total possession briefly but again like Beer Sheva at home the character was top class after a set back.

    Rogic is sensational right now and has developed into a top player for us.

    Great partnership I central defence and Toure in particular looks class, even in the respect he went over and gave the GB his shirt at the end.

    Great to see that type of crowd again for a domestic game and a good atmosphere bunged in. Sheep were quite subdued for long spells and didn't even come out with that paedophile * that they usually do.

    With room for improvement as I don't think we were brilliant today, I think it's looking really good for the domestic season, we have so many options squad wise.

    I think we looked a bit tired today but we now have a two week break. This first part of the season has been a massive success for Celtic, the players will come back refreshed and ready to thump the huns.

    Best start to a season in a long long time were looking like Brendan's Liverpool side of 13/14 heading into games knowing we can outscore opponents and it's fantastic to watch
    The Huns are next let's keep it going

    Think it's the first time since the 10/11 season we actually won our opening 3 fixtures. And lets not forget that Hearts and Aberdeen are among them games.

    1 tough away game passed and the runners up from last season pumped despite us not being at our best, top of the league with a game in hand been the perfect start

    Brilliant result after Tuesday and what it took out of us..

    Griff, that peg and finish :35:

    Thought Touré was excellent again. Should've been outta sight by half hour, nevermind half time. Second half it felt like they had a lot of the ball and delighted to see hun * like Reynolds getting sent off to seal the game, and hun * like Shinnie losing the plot as well..

    Worldy from Rogic..

    Great win. 2 week's off and we've time to get Roberts, Erik and other's up to full speed..

    Top with a game in hand. H H..
