How would you have described Stokesys performance?

If Big Jele performed the same way as Stokesy last night,i'm sure gers fans would be giving it big-licks

Why GIRFUY?

Can't you read? Celtic showed improvement last night and won well.

Mary,

Standing joke...take it easy mate, good article

Charlie, I think Stokes has been your best player all season - without his goals you would be even deeper in the grubber. as far as the SPL is concerned.

He had a good game last night - and as I said, took his goals very well.

Sorry TCD, i was confused about yer comment. What's your thoughts on the article's point though?

Yeah he has improved his fitness and work-rate..

He could be our Kris Boyd..but even better as Stokesy has more to his game

We certainly WERE not outstanding.Our defensive structure is shambolic and has been since MON's days...Boruc apart.

What has to be remembered though-And could be why Lenny is using such superlatives-this was a thrown together team of mostly misfits.Then at half time, we bringba teenager on.Sometimes when you are facing the abyss, it takes outstanding achievements to drag you away

Stokes is a better all-round player than Boyd. No question.

He's still a bit of a daft boy though - if he cuts oot the nonsense, the sky's the limit.

Dangerous player.

Agrree totally, i would like Lenny to have came out and said, that's more like it. We did well and it was a good 3 points and the players must now carry that on.

To be fair, winning 3-1 against a decent european outfit without:

Izzy
Brown
2 Wilsons
Ledley
Ki
Commons (fit enough for bench)

I think it was a very decent result

It's this Zonal making that fooks us up..it's clear as daylight,we don't have quick enough players to do that..Lenny must change that

TCD, i take your point but Lenny in general seems to band about the superlatives too much. And then when a poor performance comes along he can be ultra negative in his comments.

Lennon said it was outstanding given the circumstances.

To be fair, winning 3-1 against a decent european outfit without:

decent? celtic should be beating teams like rennes at home, 1st half hour celtic were abysmal, the 1st gifted goal changed the game, rennes defending and goal keeping was amature to say the least

hfh..

It was a Celtic reserve team

HFH,

Why should Celtic be beating Rennes at home?

It's changed days for the OF mate. No bankers home or away.

3-1 is 3-1, come on be fair.

Charlie, it was hardly a reserve team. Remember the thing about Celtic having two teams?

Ye cannae roll that excuse out when it suits you.

It was a Celtic reserve team

ypu are not allowed to field reserve teams in europe, only your registered players

who were the reserves?

We were down to the bare bones last night. A 17 year old kid at centre back ffs. Of course it was outstanding.

maryhill

i didnt say it wasnt a good result, my point is i dont think rennes are great shakes, not a decent standard, they have no history of european football, thats why celtic should be beating them, lenny has built a brand new team up to his 3rd season

Irivne - Barcelona are outstanding

Celtic's performance last night was good and an improvement on recent weeks, not outstanding.

M.Wilson
K.Wilson
