    Yup. And we need to invest smartly. Too much money has been wasted on dross in recent years. Ideally a huge clearout to reduce the wage bill next summer would be great, but that's probably wishful thinking.

    hes never gonna be a dominant center half winning everything, hes gonna need to be able to read the game and be able to play football, whihc to fair i think he can play and pass the ball its his defending and his bravery that lets him down

    So he’s not Celtic quality and as bad as Hendry cause his shots get blocked? How many has McGregor scored the last 3 seasons?

    Naw. As Kyding pointed out the real world isn't played out on the internet or Transfermarket. Which doesn't take into account their 'relationships' with other 'clubs' or their wages. If they genuinely 'spend' less on that team than we do; then, yes that is worrying. However, I doubt that is true.

    I agree it was bad, just don't think it's embarrassing, they're a fantastic side on a 49 game unbeaten home run. If you're referring to edouard and ntcham you're talking absolute pish.

    Said it before and i’ll say it again, Rodgers got the best out of Deila’s squad and now they have stagnated. Just needing some fresh faces. I’ll be happy if we scrape by until January and then i really hope the board back Ordgers and Congerton because if they dont, Rodgers will be off in the summer if not before.

    We have to concede that in terms of quality we've totally slipped back. In our league we flatter to deceive as generally other teams have been worse. We just can't compete at this level and that's what's so disappointing for us the fans. We're being constantly conned.

    Just another reminder where we are currently and likely where we will remain in Euro football for many years to come.

    Shocking the top Euro teams is no more and I’ve now gotten to the point where I’m not even expecting to challenge what you would call slightly better than average European teams like Salzburg - yes they are slightly at the top end of average, albeit with potential to be very good as their avg age is only 21.

    Acceptance our Euro glory days are gone is very much a thing for me sadly. Keeping the faith, while knowing the football landscape has seriously handicapped our potential to challenge, seriously challenge for last 16’s in the CL or semis/finals in the Europa League is something that’s simply not possible.

    Tough pill to swallow!

    Wouldn't agree with Ntcham few bad games but hardly a parasite who's cost us all season.

    We barely even flatter in the league.

    If I wasnt a Celtic fan I'd have thoroughly enjoyed watching them. Absolutely relentless, didn't give us a second and showed to be quality with the ball also

    after the shenanigans at the club between management and top players theres no way rogers will be with us next season, hes found out what every other past manager has found out and that is the ambition only goes so far and then the board room will * you, done it to oneil strachan lennon and delia, they promise us the skys the limit then their sphincters tighten up when we look like we are gonna achieve something big

    See the way they played it side to side? Fast paced, switching the play, getting us * knackered and pouncing on it when we got the ball in the middle.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the first 45 minutes. We were * defending properly, listening to BR’s interview the reason he changed the shape second half was to hold onto the ball...

    He doesn’t understand the value in defending. Not at all.
