It's clear we struggle to break teams down who park the bus. Instead of always trying to play through the lines I don't understand why we don't stick 2 big guys up top. We got plenty of crosses into the box yesterday but no one attacking them. I think it's time for Bayo to get a run in the team, seems decent in the air from limited footage I've seen of him. It's not always the most attractive style but sometimes its needed and it certainly worked for O'Neill and Strachan.
{Ed007's Note - Then fans could moan that we are just punting balls into the box at two target men.}

I don’t think I’ve seen a Celtic team with less of an aerial threat and Bayo can head a ball. Why him no play? Think the criticism of Lennon is a tad unfair. We’re paying the price of the dearly departeds lack of interest since last summer and two panned in transfer wondows. I’d appoint Neil amd let him try for the 10. He’s a safe pair of hands and we know what we’ve got but don’t know what we’re getting. Appointing a new manager is always a risk and one I don’t think we need to take. I think the tanned fella with the teeths BRexit must have had an impact on the players. If we feel let down think how the players particularly the younger boys must feel.

We can’t break teams down because we over play it we want to pass it in from 5 yards, what has happened to shooting from outside the box rarely see it anymore when theirs plenty of opportunity too, we play into their hands they sit behind the ball and hit us on the break they no we will over play and pass pass pass pass all day long and any ball into box we won’t score because we have no target man griffiths was lethal in the air and we miss him and bayou is good in the air from what I’ve seen, the tactics are the number 1 problem here, we play 2 cm and 1 am behind striker when one holding mid (brown) is sufficient since they all sit in against us, we should then play two am behind striker mcgregor Christie rogic and Henderson can all do that job well eddy on left and griff or bayo up top I believe this would make a huge difference ðŸ€.

It's anti football Livingston tactics.

Totally agree Phil, it’s horrible to watch 11 men sit in their own box against us no space whatsoever, any of the rangers games I’ve watched recently the opposition doesn’t seem to sit in as much against them, they seem to have much more space especially today against Motherwell they handed them the goals on a plate.

LG is a big miss.

Livingston are playing within the limitations of their capabilities and resources. They came to Parkhead set their stall out and did what they had to do. We just we’rent good enough to break them down and when we did we couldn’t take our chances. Fair play to them.

It's simple. When people park the bus we are required to pass it through them.
We have no threat in the air. Seen against monchengladbach, valencia Zenit and Anderlecht at home
They just centralise their team and allow us a bit more space out wide.
As they know we won't cross and if we do then it's usually harmless.
Likewise with corners and free kicks.
