    Fair enough but keep putting square pegs in round holes and you are going no were. I honestly believe now RD is making his job hard for himself in the decisions he is making, if he had the balls to admit he may get somethings wrong, then I believe he could be a success, but he is making the same mistake time and time again, with commons at the top of that list.

    Tell me, how many of Deila's signings were in the starting 11 last night? 2? Both of whom were poor, but Deila is still playing with Lennon's players - all of whom have been there and done it, played at the highest level snd know what it takes to win......so why aren't they performing? They can't lay the blame for their own individual performances at the door of the management team, can they?

    Ambrose played because he has all the experienced required, and there is no other * to play there. Like I say, I will judge Deila's defensive pairing when Boyata and Simunovic have a run of games together. Izaguirre will not be our first choice LB for much longer, I guarantee you that - that's why we tried to sign the boy Dijks, whoever else, and that's why Kieran Tierney will have some more games under his belt in the coming months before January when a replacement is bought.

    Like I say, the management team do not send their players out on the park to make individual errors, do they?

    Absolutely it does, and you know that I don't always agree with it - especially when the players are the ones letting the management, supporters and club down time and time again.

    I've already had a dig at Deila this morning regarding teams selection and subs. Like I did after the Fenerbahce game as well. How you feel about Deila will make no difference to my opinion, or anyone else I wouldn't have thought. I just happen to think that the majority of your opinions are utter nonsense, therefore I challenge them. That's usually how a forum works in case you haven't noticed. Any scenarios you want to dream up and pass off as fact today?

    Commons has been playing more regularly though. Deila's biggest mistake, is continuing to select Ambrose in my opinion. Sticking by Johansen in big games is a problem as well. He has been an imposter this season.

    As you said these players have proved at a higher level they can do it, but is the question now are they willing to do it for the man in charge, it's not correct I no, but there is nothing a manager can do if his players do not have the desire to carry out his instructions, this team would have ran through a brick wall under Neil Lennon, the same can't be said for RD

    I'm not trying to be smart in the slightest. I do think most of your opinions are nonsense. You have also in the past made up scenarios and passed them off as being fact to have a dig at Deila. Where am I trying to catch you out?

    To be fair, that got spoken about most of last season, and the player who played in his position went on to win POTY. He also played in a wide position when he first arrived here. I wouldn't necessarily say he is being played out of position, it's not as if it's a position he isn't familiar with. Johansen should be dropped though, no doubt about that, and this should have been done weeks ago.

    That's the argument, fair enough commons can play out wide and will do so, but to be shifted out for a guy who is adding nothing to the team, is bad management

    You have been annoying most of the forum for months now as far as I can see. Maybe you should take your own advice :50:

    I agree regards Johansen. I've been wanting him dropped for some time now. I do think Rogic come in and earned a place in the team though.

    So do you think he should have started last night? If so, then where would you have played him? Bearing in mind you would have played Commons in the number 10 role.

    Well that says everything you need to know about the attitude of Lennon's players in the Deila team then, eh? The only one who has successfully integrated into Deila's working is probably Griffiths - the rest (going by your post) have downed tools because Neil isn't here - the sooner Deila gets his own men in the better - and guys like Johansen and Brown really do need to have a good look at themselves.

    Would you not say Johanson is the most suited player to the way Ronny works and wants to play, even if he never signed him

    How many players has Ronny signed since he got the job, why is he still relying on lennons players, as you call them, he has had plenty of time to change it.
