[Matchday] Kilmarnock v Celtic, Premiership, Sunday 9 August 16:30 Sky Sports Football

You watch the huns because you’re a football fan?

 

Ajer and CM passing it around with seconds to. Go summed us up today.

 

Its pretty much as I expected how it panned out although I thought we would have sneaked it with a single goal. Some people need to take a reality check and think we are going to steamroll teams to the 10. Everyone wants a bit of us, especially Killie as its full of ex Huns and wannae be Huns. Every game is going to be a cup final, we have to be up for it not the sluggish performance today. Lenny must have known how Killie were going to setup, balls over the top would have been the way to go not the Rogers tippy tap passing game.
Last season when we had games like that you always felt we could get a late winner and on many occasion we did but today you felt it was never going to happen, I hope thats not a sign of things to come.
We are up against it but have to earn it, we will get no help from anyone including the officials who were their usual inconsistent selves. There will be more points dropped on the way but not off to a great start. Hail Hail

 

When we go two up top why the * do we have to automatically go 3 at the back? Why not keep the wingers and take one of the centre mids off and go 4-4-2?

 

One of the worst attacking performances I’ve ever seen. We never looked like scoring at any time.

It was so bad the team looked like they’d taken a bet. I don’t know if it was panic or apathy but we just decided to have a few long shots today and stick in wild cross after wild cross.

Kilmarnock did okay but they didn’t have to play well. We were disinterested.

I suppose if we’re going to lose points we might as well do it early, but today’s performance was worrying.

 

We could also have put Dembele on for Forrest who was absoloutely pish

 

Cancel all ideas for a CF. We shouldn't be struggling to defend against Kilmarnock, but we are. Cb the only transfer we should be going for the rest of the window.

 

How’s that fat * wearing a fleece in the sun.

 

Going to a 4 in midfield is impossible with Brown in the team, but Ntcham on for him and 442 is an option.

 

You can have all the possession in the game but when you are as passive with it as we were today then it doesn't help you

 

Fs .

 

Aye cos the CB’s were the reason we lost most midfield battles and could break their defence.

 

Tbh mate a don’t fear them either, but there’s nothing wrong in watching the team that’s going to be your biggest rivals for 10 in a row

my point basically is had the Huns put in a performance like we did today, a lot of Celtic fans who would watch it

would be on here saying “ how * they were and how 10s in the bag “

we were to a man absolutely pish, apart from free kick we didn’t have another actual shot on target or make their keeper work

big julien cost us with that stupid penalty

 

In a word. BRUTAL. We lacked creativity to break down the Ayrshire huns that park the bus. Yes the surface is * but we were not at it today. Taylor is not creative enough going forward. He is not the answer. Julien rag dolled by an ex Hartlepool striker. We need to stick to a 352 when we are up against teams like Kilmarnock. It will be interesting to see Lennon's team on wed at St.Mirren as they will play the same way as kilmarnock with Obika the target man and sitting in.

 

Absolutely woeful every one of them including Lenny .

 

They know, as we know, one game doesn’t mean anything.

 

We need a centre half, striker, a left winger and maybe even an attacking midfielder or we'll have trouble securing this 10. No doubt about that.

 

We have shown in the past we are the team who can put together a good winning run. We will do it again. But the manner of the performance is concerning. Livi away will be very similar. We really need to start getting to grips and being more tactically astute.

 

Killie away. Tough. Plastic pitch. Don’t usually do well there.....


* off with this patter, * losers

 

If we played like that then they would have gotten something at Celtic Park.

This isn't to do with the pitch, which we've played on dozens of time and won on. It's to do with how * we were today. We could have played all night and not scored again. Our only goal was a freak that the goalie should have saved.
