    Maybe sky have it wrong but they have it as klimala Christie and Forrest behind eduoard. Although it would make more sense for klimala and odsonne to both be up top. Hope your right and they are wrong

    I’m 95% sure it’ll be 352 mate.

    Sky are clueless when it comes to Scottish fitba.

    Good win tonight and glad to see a bit of rotation in the squad, but he needs to get us playing better. Defence still looks sloppy at times.

    We won, so i'm happy enough, but why would he drop Ntcham and Frimpong? Ajeti I can understand and even Elhamed for Jullien I get, but the other two are absolutely bizarre to me.

    Brown was pish as usual, yet he got the full 90 minutes? What is Lennon playing at? The tactics we went for this match were barely working, why not bring on Turnbull around the 60th minute and ajeti around the 65th?

    At times? It hasn't been right at any point this season. It is a shambles.

    I must have imagined the clean sheet in the last game.

    And that was probably the worst we’ve been defensively this season in the league.

    Tbf, Barkas was arguably our best player at the weekend. Our defence wasn’t convincing at all in the first half.

    Well, Forrest got the winner for us.

    And Ntcham’s replacement Christie set up the two goals

    Hence why I said “sloppy at times”.

    Think the team was ok. Tactically we are a bit * though. Brown seems to want to play CH which leaves too much space as McGregor and Christie are too far forward. Middle to front we look devoid of ideas, just hoping for Edouard to pull something off or putting it out wide for Forrest or Taylor to play back to the midfielders, again and again.

    The shape or personnel is just not working.

    I didn't say I wanted Ntcham on in place of Christie, why play brown in two successive games away in which teams will clearly try and frustrate us? Play someone like Turnbull there who can help us when we attack, even at that if we're going to play Brown he does not need to play the entire 90.

    As for Forrest? He scored a good goal, but he was horrendous throughout the game, he's clearly first choice in any other formation but he doesn't work well enough at Wing-back.

    I like the guy but he simply doesn't learn. Continues to fiddle with the team when it's not needed, drops players who don't deserve to be left-out whilst playing guys who do deserve to be dropped. He seems incapable of making us a solid unit, I have never known a Celtic team look so vulnerable defensively. I doubt it will go down well and it pains me to say it but from what I've seen so far this season I'd have sevco as favourites at this moment in time.

    Very clever but if you watch the game we were all over the place. Only some good saves and pure luck stopped us conceding a good few goals. Not once did we look defensively secure.

    Totally agree the defence needs to tighten up.

    The defence is not the problem its the midfield, Brown is constantly getting turned out of position leaving the defenders vulnerable, we have no press it very easy to play through us right now.

    He needs to drop Brown.
