We should now have a discussion on Jack Hendry's mistake last night . Lucky for Jack and us that are supporters we had the ever vigilant keeper C Gordon alert to the trouble and he saved comfortably .
I want the discussion to be held now, and not turning into abuse on Jack by carrying on to Christmas or beyond . In fact a mistake by Efe was recently highlighted here by a memory man, 5/ 6 seasons after Ambrose may have made a mistake .
So discuss Jack's lapse, get it out of your system so that Jack and us can continue .
I thought Jack had a very good game last night, apart from that one mistake .

Other than that i thought he done well, brought us out a few times, and should learn from it.

The lad Ajer being the youngest looks the most experienced. We have a good enough squad to dominate domestically but against quality opposition the Defence will need to buck up their ideas. Surely with Mcgrain and Toure coaching they will improve.

He only did what Boyata did against the huns twice, what ever other defender does - has a lapse.
I think he needs time, games to see progress. He looks average from the games I’ve seen. Steady enough and capable at Scottish league level.

The bhoy is the weakest link in defence no getting away from it . but he is still young and learning . but he must learn from it unlike big efe who was prone to lapses of concentration all through his Celtic career . also if Hendry (or any other) keeps doing stuff like that they should be getting discussed no matter when.

He’s young and a bit inexperienced, but no point getting on his back. At the end of the day we signed him from Dundee, he may have shone there but to do it for us consistently is a bit tougher. We have to expect it when we sign lads from other Scottish sides, I can’t think of any recently where they came in and improved us straight away . They all need a bit of time, I’d hazard a guess it will be the same with Mcginn when he comes. A bad game for Hibs / Dundee is not quite the same as having one for us.

There is no reason this lad will come good . It's some difference playing for a club like Celtic and the expectations, than playing for Dundee .
We can help him to step up, or we can destroy him by blowing his confidence away expecting a £20m performance every game he plays . Those performances may come but probably not this season.

Other than that mistake he played well. Not afraid of a tackle or putting his head in where it hurts. No bad amount of pace. Think he will grow into a decent centre half for us.
