I'm a spurs fan who also loves Celtic, when the English media laugh at Celtic's poor performance in the champions league need to get real. Psg front 3 would be enough to buy the whole of Celtic football club lol . Like I said many of times if Celtic had the revenue if most of the European clubs they would be winning the champions league as well. I bet neymars one week wages would pay the whole squad wages for a few weeks. I will always be proud of the bohys whatever the results.

PSG may well beat the English clubs but I doubt that they would put 7 past them.
I love what Rodgers has done for our club, but he doesn't seem to learn any lessons as regards European football. We really have to become better organised against these teams and make ourselves more difficult to beat
I don't expect us to go away from home against these teams and win, but we shouldn't be letting 5,6,and 7 goals past us so often, we should at least be able to keep the score down.
The problem is that it's not just happening against the big guns of Europe, we scored 5 goals against Astana at home but still managed to concede 4 in the away leg, we lost to Lincoln red imps last season, and only just held on against Hapoel, again after scoring 5 in the home leg.
I don't know if it's tactics, or whether some players are just not good enough, but we really have to try and do something about it.
Last week England, Northern Ireland, and the Republic of Ireland (at least in the away leg) all played superior opposition, but they were all well organised and kept their games very tight.
That is what we should be aiming for.

Gerryc i agree with what your saying I don't know if it's just Brendan's inability to organise a defensive setup or just too stubborn to change from his attacking philosophy but your right I don't think many people thought we could go there and get a result so why not organise the team to make it more difficult for them hit them on the break occasionally and limit their scoring chances. on a side note the FFP regulations are a complete joke salary caps and transfer budget caps are required now I think it is getting beyond a joke also the fact they were allowed to take mbappe on loan after his transfer was blocked just makes a mockery of the FFP reg's.

digibanger, that's the whole point, we shouldn't be in a position where we are playing this level of opposition with players playing out of position. You can probably get away with doing that in our league, but you won't get away with it in Europe.
In my opinion we badly need a goalkeeper who gives confidence to the defence, and we also need a Centre half who can read the game at that level.
As I said previously, we aren't just struggling to contain the elite teams in Europe, the smaller teams are finding us a soft touch as well.
We have good forward players who can cause problems for most teams, but they've got no chance to shine whilst we are conceding this amount of goals.

Feel sorry for Bitton he's only playing were he's told to. Probably be out the door soon but to put the guy in defence against a team like that was bordering on cruelty. Blame for that lies squarely with BR and the board.

Well he could have moved McGregor to right back, and brought on Armstrong to midfield.
