    I would agree with this although we are more likely to score goals away in europe now , brendan already hinting its down to not syncronising our play , with that im taking it he means attacking as a team moving up park and defending as a team ,moving back to shut down space , to much space being left inbetween our movement ,teams who can pass are exploiting this.

    i actually get tired of our play and have been all season its all so slow and boring! this isnt knee * btw

    at the start of season i put it up to getting back early without hardly any rest we where winning games and scoring 4 against hearts at the start of the season but the drive just didnt look there ... more games in it never picked up we where winning games bit always walked away feeling we never gave the performance that we could. we where not * but it was far from what we could be and what we had been the previous season

    ill add one of mine to your list ive noticed we have very few chances im matches i remember even under deila we could manage double figures and match that with shots on goal we are going in at the break with a shot on target at times its really worrying me

    maybe we are not giving other teams credit for the work they do but at the same time we still should be better

    our midfield is weak and far to open we need a wanyama type in the middle

    What a load of bollix.
    Even Barcelona lose and lose big now and then. I recall Germany who are the world's best losing 4 or 5 nil to a Michael Owen England.
    What the * has England won since, all it did was wake up a Giant.

    Yes players look tired and a few need a break or replacing, Lustig looks like he has concerns out of soccer. Boyata agreed is not comfortable with the compulsory passing game.

    Mon was over rated! Henrik was the gem that made the Celtic tic an O'Neil had f all to do with signing him, he signed umpa lumpas like Sutton and Hartson, great blokes and good players made look great by an exceptional once in a generation player!

    BR is a much better manager than MON, neither btw are like ye all and me, real Celtic people who would walk over broken glass to play.
    Before he left MON took 2 million in shares for * all, he does the same to Ireland, he loves who ever pays. Fair play to him but do not kid yourselves he was a dedicated Celt above all else.

    Yes we got to a Euro final but via no great soccer plan by O'Neil it was defend the box exact same shyte he does with Ireland, a system that can be lucky with (think Greece) but never progress from, as it is a dull counter attack system.
    Would have won f all if it were not for Henrik.

    BR is a genius in comparison to MON.

    Definitely not at the standards of last season, the squad is also weaker and I agree about the pressing it seems they sit back a lot more this season. Hopefully we can start improving, maybe the pressure of the unbeaten run was getting to them.

    We didn’t but even then it’s hard to say thats progression. We finished on exactly the same amounts of points, conceded more goals and scored fewer. We were just lucky the 3rd seed this season was poor.

    People underestimate how much brendan improved us last year taking over from Ronny deila's reign.

    Pile of absolute nonsense.

    McGregor is a POTY candidate, having a superb season.

    If we are talking technically. Then yes, today we have regressed. We just lost a game of football where we hadn't done domestically in 69 games.

    Only a matter of time before things went wrong for us,the good run was always going to come to an end.
    The worrying thing is the cracks have been appearing for a while now in our games and while most fans have noticed the decline the management/board didnt seem to notice it.
    It has to be a bit of concern that despite our great run and our continuing run in Europe that the investment in the team doesn't seem to match the successes we have had recently
    We need a new keeper and our defence is weak and yet it seems there will be no changes in those area,s anytime soon..

    Funny this * only turns up on days like today, where exactly were you when we won the treble? Going over how many missed placed passes we had in the whole season maybe.
