Last night showed again that when we come up against the elite of europe that we cannot try and play the same way we do in domestic football as we are never going to have the amount of time we have on the ball as we do in scotland and also we must have a plan b were we can try and play ugly football and shut the game down because to give the amount of space to world class players and silly passes in our own half and give the ball away 20 yards from out goal is suicide football, sometimes play the ball long to moussa get players around him to pick up the second ball and even if we lose the ball it is not 20 yards from our goal
Enough of that now on to hampden to win first of three.

BR Jan wish list must be CH and a number 10 with real quality simple as that what's your thoughts EDs.
{Ed007's Note - A 'keeper is more a priority than any other position and until we have some quality between the sticks we're going to struggle in Europe. Why go out and splash millions on a CB when the weakest link in the team is still behind him?}

Aye start at the back but that's no going to happen wae de vrice signing an extension but definitely need both and a number 10 for me is needed someone who can keep ball and pass it right too I know it's no even Dec but have u heard anything possible targets ED?
{Ed007's Note - Nah, nothing yet.}

Mostly agree Ed that CG is a very weak link but I personally could not fault him too much last night, especially the goals. They saw our right side of defence was weak and that was where they hit us hard.
{Ed007's Note - I'm not meaning for games against your PSGs and I'm not blaming Gordon - or anyone else - for last night but Gordon has consistently let us down on the European stage, all the way back to his first season and playing in the EL.
At European level we will always risk conceding with Gordon in goal no matter who the opposition are.
His constant palming the ball into back into the danger area, decision making at coming for balls and his well known weakness at his near post will always cost us. Although his mistakes are rarely punished in the SPFL, he still makes them and at the higher level they will be punished.
Gordon is a good shot-stopper but he isn't a good goalkeeper.}

Brown gave the ball away for the 1st, some fantastic play for the 2nd, then the heads went down, was talking to a sensible hun today, and he made a point that the Celtic players looked as though they didn’t believe they can compete with these teams, and I agree slightly, but PSG are an outstanding team, and will beat a few teams this year with similar score lines, as much as I hate saying it, that wee shite Neymar is one of the best players in Europe at this moment.

Got to agree ed but surely it's not out with our means to get a quality centre half and a better keeper.
