    Paying good money to watch a naive manager playing one up front is not what I expect or want from CFC

    Right lads, I've already handed out two warnings for trolling. I understand there'll be some angry posts in Celtic Chat over the next few days, but that isn't an excuse for trolling and/or flaming.

    Warnings and bans will be handed out. This is the last warning I'll post in this thread.

    We haven't won a game at Parkhead since October, can't pretend everything is rosey. Same weaknesses out there as there has always been under Ronny.

    All you need to beat us is two fast wingers.

    Exactly I can take a defeat both domestically and in Europe if we are organised properly. Deila has not made the correct domestic selection once since he has been here. One striker against blanket SPL defenses. It would be funny if it wasnt so tragic.

    No am not defending Ronny am just simply saying that is what the board is looking for, it will always be a risk at the type of manager they will look for and how much they are willing to pay him.

    Lennon wasn't consistent in Europe.

    Because we are able to pay footballers far more money in wages than our opponents. These superior players do the business no matter what system we are playing. We are winning in spite of his selection and organisation not because of it.

    He wasn't, but he still got us to the CL.

    I know it was his third season but I have zero confidence in Ronny to get us there any time soon.

    I do get enjoyment out of domestic success, everyone likes winning. But we expect to win the league every season, it's 99% certain we will win the league. Therefore, the joy isn't the same as when we are challenged. Anyone who denies that is talking out of their *.

    As Marky said in Deila thread. The job of a manager is to make a team that is greater than the sum of it's parts, and he isn't doing that.

    In his 3rd season yes, did everyone have full confidence Lennon would do that? Doubt it.

    It's not even half way through the season yet.

    Of course Celtic are excpected to win, doesn't mean to say we have a divine right - we still require points and performances to win it....moreso the points, meaning we have to win them. I still get plenty of joy winning leagues/cups.

    The second part - you must be hoping for some magnificent magician to come in then if you think a manager can consistently lose the best players from his team every season, and replace them with players with cost an absolute snippet from the transfer received.

    I know you're being funny, but I think we're far from perfect.

    That being said, I'm not as negative as most on here these days - yourself included.
