    Sorry to disappoint you 4-4-2 I don't drink sherry it's maiden's watter. That's Gyp's poison not mine.
    A Celtic player shell shocked in two Ranger's games now has to be traumatised.I am the Doc here, remember ? Surely you are not contemplating playing Sviatchenko in the Cup Semi Final ?

    The alarm bells were ringing at ibrokes tbh, poor concentration, he looked easily outmuscled.

    His lack of stature is showing lately. Looks slower than ever too.

    Bit of a worry. Before Xmas he was excellent though, I actually had him down as a candidate for POTY if he continued his form.

    His habit of getting caught the wrong side of players is something that's always worried me, compound that with him going in a wee * huff in January and then producing casual as * performances like that? Get him benched.

    I definitely want to see Jozo back in. Needs consistent games.

    I think him and Erik as a partnership is still our best regardless of Boyata's form. Perhaps it's best for Erik to take a back seat for a few games though, wait and see what Brendan does.

    He's not proven himself that's the best partnership, we've looked weaker when he's been since the turn of the year.

    For somebody who showed a lot of fight in the first year of his Celtic career, it seems to have fully left him because things weren't quite going his way. Yesterday from him was * shocking, so casual, not giving a *. He has his flaws as a defender, his fight and desire covered a lot of those flaws. If he's not showing that same fighr, same desire? It's evident as *.

    I agree, he gets very tight to his opponent at times and gets easily rolled, waghorn also backed into him a lot and got a lot of joy out of it. Erik was outmuscled and even outpaced at times by an overweight striker. A defender who lacks an inch or two needs to make up for it in other areas of his game. Those areas being; reading(of the game), pace, strength and agility.

    Yesterday he lacked all of those, caught too tight or wrong side, lacked recovery pace and bullied. Needs to get his head sorted.

    So did I. Him and Jozo were in excellent form for a while.

    Hopefully they can get back to it because our defence has went from a strong point to looking dodgy as *.

    Watch this change when Jozo comes back. Guys the calming influence at the back.

    Aye. He should be back in next week. I was actually shocked he didn't start yesterday. He's our best centre half at the moment. As you say, he just calms * down.

    I feel like I'm * attacking him but he's been like this since the winter break. Needs to wrap his * whinging and get focused on staking his place in the time.

    Yep..

    Been saying the same myself for a while now. Slow. Passing TERRIBLE. Caught out of position. Bullied (especially in the air against target men)..

    Him and Boyata were shocking..

    Don't trust either now..
