    Load of *.

    Ambrose * it for us. Plain and simple. We go in 2-0 up and we win that game, asbolutely no doubt in my mind.

    You could see the whole stadium go a bit flat as soon as this numpty made another mistake. He not only has the ability to put the fear of * into his teammates but also has the ability to silence a rocking Celtic Park. Some player. :rolleyes:

    This is the kind of mind numbing defiance of this guy I'm talking about. Why can't you admit he * it? It was no-one elses fault for that first other than him and he has to take some blame for shoddy defending at the second. Completely caught on his heels.

    That's all well and good but give me a * any day who can actually perform over a ticking time bomb.

    The nice guy persona can't save him now. Has to go or he is going to cost Deila and us again.

    I don't think anyone is arguing he should stay TBF.

    I think he should stay.

    He is an able deputy. You aren't going to get the quality he provides 95% of the time to come and sit on the bench.

    If someone offers us daft money for him then yes by all means punt, but otherwise I think he should stay. In no way should he be an automatic starter though.

    I don't care if he stays or goes, but he should never play in a European game again. Not being dramatic. He doesn't have the composure for it, simple as that.

    That 1st goal was a pretty simple, low pressure spot to be in, and he couldn't handle it.

    He has had good games in Europe, he just needs to be under the cosh and have no time to think.

    When he engages his brain that's when the problems arise.

    I think we could still get a couple million for him, purely down to his 'experience'.

    So, I'd definitely look to punt and bring in someone else. His time is up here, for me(probably should have been a year ago). Whether it's back up or first team.

    How much time should he not have because it was a fairly quick pish decision he made on Thursday for that header.

    He had the bounce then the turn to figure it out. That is an age in football terms.

    It's not the actual move I'm talking about anyway, more having nothing to do for long periods. Up until his brain fart we were hammering them, therefore he was scratching his * for a while.

    So as soon as we went two up some * should have grabbed hold of him and said "right concentrate now Efe ffs" ?

    But who ? Outside of Brown who do we have that can do that ? Lustig ? Gordon ?

    I would be happy never to see him in a Celtic jersey again, no matter the opposition.

    His likeability factor should not come into play. He's harmful to us.

    It's become a case of us being able to predict before a game that he'll * up at some point.

    That situation is simply not on, and it must also heap loads of pressure onto him, making it even more of a nightmare for everyone.

    He has to go, even if he plays a MOTM performance in his next game, we all know what he's capable of.

    Yep.

    Pointless keeping him when he's capable of doing what he did the other night. You want to have a back up player you have some confidence in. Ambrose isn't that.

    But for his brain farts he would be at a rich club. He is a quality player mistakes aside.

    If he never made mistakes he wouldn't be with us.

    He is a good squad player in that respect.

    My thoughts to mate, like I said previously its past laughable now, his * ups are costing us dearly, once or twice fine, every footballer has odd nightmare but Efes way past that, we expect him to * up now in the big games and he very rarely disappoints, time for him to move on.

    The guy is always prone to stupid mistakes , He is not Celtic class and I hope we get suitable coverage soon and I hope the guy never pulls the hoops top on again .
    I am sure he is a lovely guy but he should never play for us again sorry !

    I believe in him... And that's not a joke what I saw before the mistake and even in the Ajax game when he came on he shows he is capable anybody says otherwise is in big denial!

    Other than Juve and the other night on the "big stage" where else has he * it ? I'm not talking about an error... something that caused a goal or lost points other than Juve and fenerbache ? Please enlighten me

    The 6-1 in Barca he played his part in all 6 goals. Worst performance I've seen off of any Celtic centre back.

    Van Dijk was worse that night. Constantly found standing inside the Barca half without the ball.

    Awful night, the worst I've experienced. Hurt so * bad.
