I thought Forster and Ki played alright.The rest were chasing shadows.
i thought ledley was good tonight!
Absolutely, Davieboy.
The problem I have is that I don't understand why a berr would open an account on here and think he could impersonate a Celtic supporter.
Right; truth time.
I listened to pundits saying at half time..." its a good result, we would be saying great result if 0-0.....need to defend away from home...." utter utter drivel ALL scottish teams peddle!
In a league situation, going for broke away from home is how most European teams now play, especially with away counting double when appropriate!
So, do you bhoys honestly think that was as good as Celtic couldve played?
If they had gone higher up the park, pushed, closed, and had two up front?
Lack of confidence, fear of ridicule, fear of defeat; scottish teans European tactics are from the 1970's. Its shocking!
Aye 54, you're right. I believe it was copyrighted by The Cardigan a few years back.
quebecelt...... I made a valid point as a Celtic supporter, you are clearly not the person I thought you were if you think I am a berr...... Get a grip and discuss the topic, because as much as I love Kayal, I really think he has had his head turned !
Aye and on your other post you slate 1/2 the team.
GTF man if you thought we would win tonight you are deluded.
What person did you think I was BTW?
I dont think its an unreasonable thing to suggest - Kayal has himself refused to comment on signing a new contract several times. The fact Celtic have been trying to get him tied down since the end of last season and he hasnt even entered discussions would suggest he doesnt see himself here much longer.
Davieboy, drop the "H" you are a bear.
would anyone disagree with this ???
we played the group favourites away from home tonight and gave a decent account of ourselve, bit more luck and you never know
At what point were did the luck come into it tonight out of curiousity?
Tone.
Thought Celtic played reasonably well. Both goals you could put down as defensive errors or just good goals.
5 to go, so still plenty of time.
Hope we hump you on sunday though.
More break of the ball smid. Especially with hoopers chance in 1st half.
Id put that more down to lack of technique than luck but thats just my opinion. I think looking at another way that bit of luck Celtic did get prevented it being 4 or 5 instead of only 2.
smid you seem to be the bitter minority here
at least 3 cynical fouls on ki in very promising positions, even sammy had a decent 2nd half
you bears seem to be happier than we are sad
Different perspectives then smid. Not saying we were great but it was an improved European performance.
Not at all tonights result either way doesnt make me happy or sad anymore than any other result tonight. Rangers arent involved so I have no feeling either way, I just cant see any rationale for Celtic being unlucky or the result being any different than it was. You were up against a better side who dominated and created most of the chances, theres no shame in it but I dont think it was a particularly good performance from Celtic. Just my opinion though.
quebec ....I've seen your posts b4 .....I didn't for a second think we would win, just want our players to perform at their best , is that wrong of me ? Yes, I have high standards.... I pay more for my season ticket than I did 8 years ago.... I followed us all the way to Seville, so why should I not want the best ?
I know we are not that same team but I just want the stupid mistakes cut out ... I want us to be able to compete...maybe I'm being foolish, but I can't help but hope !
Oh.....and you GTF
considering a 3rd minute goal concede in a stadium where barca and real struggled last season I would say that was a decent performance.......but hey, the tax dodgers would have done better
Davie, don't take it so hard.
When you're a big boy you'll find you don't always get what you want.
But if you try sometimes you get what you need.
We need to win on Sunday.
Not really about how Rangers would have done, whether we would have lost 3-0 or 1-0 has no impact upon your result tonight. Im not disputing that Atletico were obviously favourites, but bear in mind they finished 7th last season and have since sold probably their 3 best players and are only 2 games into their season and its not like you were up against the harlem globetrotters. I just would have liked to have seen Celtic play a bit further up the park and put them under a bit more pressure at the back, as they werent tested much. Its only my opinion though, doesnt make me right.
Its just like a rule for Celtic away in Europe = concede an early goal.
No matter what manager, team, formation, tactics we have its just in our blood to concede early, I was really hoping we could shut them out til half time, then as the game wore on grow in confidence and attack more, thats what the half decent European sides do against the bigger sides and get a result, we cant.
We play a negative formation with 4-5-1 to try and soak up pressure, surrender possesion. But theres only one big problem with that, you need a solid defence. Sadly we dont have that and havent had for years.
Im just glad we didnt get tanked tonight and I've forgot about it already and Im looking foward to Sunday, defeat would be disastorous for Celtic but Im confident we can go and get 3 points.
