Group already won and I understand the team selection.
Green tinted glasses off.
Some supporters who traveled to watch the team might feel cheated with so many regulars missing.
How would we feel if the boot was on the other foot and we needed another team to do us a favour? (dont get me wrong, I am happy to see Lazio out but the point remains)

12 Dec 2019 22:00:54
We might feel bad tinytim but it wouldn't be that teams problem.
No way we should have fielded anything like a full team tonight.

Agree1 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 22:29:06
Everyone and their granny knew we would field a reserve team and who cares about other teams!

Agree1 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 22:40:54
As long as we go out on Sunday and secure 3 points, then the team selection for tonight will be justified.

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 23:14:38
Lazio lost to Rennes anyway.

Positives first off.
Biton bauer Robertson ntcham and looked really good tonight.
Griff sinky boli and Gordon all got good game time to sharpen up
Bayo got some time in his legs

Negatives
Morgan. The bhoy just doesn't have it. To light to weak and just isn't good enough.

Johnstone. I know a lot rate this lad but I have serious doubts he's going to be a major player for celtic.
He only plays for himself not the team. Never lifts his head and several time every game he turns into trouble rather than playing a team mate in.
He like morgan is to lightweight and weak.
Imo he will end up at the mid to bottom of english championship at best.

Believable3 Unbelievable0

{Ed007's Note - I was really impressed with Robertson tonight and hopefully he gets a chance to show what he can do more regularly, maybe when we're a couple of goals up and need to see the game out he can replace Brown to give him a breather.}

12 Dec 2019 21:07:48
I would go with that Ed and give him a chance.

Like the look of Robertson excellent on the ball agree about Morgan never a Celtic player but disagree about Mikey bags of talent and he'll always have that. when to release the ball will come and he gets goals.

Agree1 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 22:09:16
Mally there is and always has been players with bags of talent.
Players that can beat men for fun or do every trick in the book but still have something missing and don't make it to the top.
Top defenders with brush him aside like he's not even there.

Agree1 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 22:28:07
Agree mostly Kev83, but think Mikey will be a star. Quick feet, bgs of skill, and can find the net. Needs coaching but that will come.

Agree1 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 22:30:08
Morgan consistantly plays πŸ’©.

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Dec 2019 09:23:10
Kev he's young and still filling out he gets goals big goals at that and has tremendous feet. beg to differ bud.

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Dec 2019 09:42:22
kev. thought ntcham wasnt great. bauer a positive? he's rank rotten. think we could hunt him back to stoke come january.

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Dec 2019 09:42:23
Kev, Mikey is only a young lad. He's still growing and developing. He reminds me of Forrest when he first broke into the first team. Give him some time and I think he'll prove you wrong. Agree about Morgan though he looks every bit a St. Mirren player.

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Dec 2019 11:45:41
Ntcham total controlled the first half and was by far celtics best player.
Bauer defended well and put some great balls in to the box.

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Dec 2019 14:48:35
I just can't take you seriously Kev giving Mikey it tight whilst continuously praising Sinclair who is a complete passenger whenever he plays.

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Dec 2019 14:52:13
Smiddy can't agree young Robertson is left footed and plays deeper Henderson is right footed and more attack minded.

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Dec 2019 16:02:27
Aye tompo88 a complete passenger whenever he plays.
1 season player of the year
2 second season top goalscorer
3 season second top goalscorer and made it in to top 10 midfielders in Europe for combined goals and assists along with james forrest.
Apart fae all that your bang on, he's a total passenger. πŸ’©πŸ’©πŸ’©πŸ’©πŸ’©.

12 Dec 2019 20:50:47
So is it OK for us to lose out on 570k Euros by playing a weakened team while the Club claim the Green Brigade have cost us over 500k Euros in fines and according to the manager have cost us a player?
Did Lennon's team selection tonight cost us another player? 😁

Hahaha nicely done eddy.

{Ed007's Note - πŸ˜‰ πŸ˜‹

12 Dec 2019 22:21:59
Or you could look at it as an investment because we will make more than that if we win the league and resting those players will help us do it.
Also having robertson and dembele playing will help with their development which will drive their value up and make us more money.
So in essence Lennon speculated to accumulate later?

Agree3 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 22:43:30
Good point Ed. πŸ˜‚.

12 Dec 2019 23:13:45
Get over it ed007 Celtic did the right thing it gives us a needed rest, rested some players and gave a chance to future talent.

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 20:46:30
Morgan is rubbish, Sinclair is rubbish and Bayo is rubbish. I did enjoy watching Sinclair but he's finished.

Believable2 Unbelievable0

12 Dec 2019 21:02:00
Thanks Ed - sorry for the vulgar.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - There's an auto filter that changes it mate.}

12 Dec 2019 22:17:21
Belbhoy what did you expect from Sinclair he’s been sitting in the stand, or on one or two occasions in the dugout all season, therefore a serious lack of match fitness very harsh comments imo .

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Dec 2019 14:17:49
Oldkilly he wasnt just off the pace his decision making was as bad as I've seen in a while.

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Dec 2019 14:50:50
oldkilly I'd expect him to try and make a point rather than complelty hide for 90 mins.

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 19:46:32
Although we got beat tonight I've just got to say, I think Craig Gordon pulled off some great saves.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

12 Dec 2019 20:12:53
Thought his kicking was on point tonight as well.

Agree1 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 20:29:24
Do you think he could have done better for their second goal? At the time i thought big fraser would have came and stopped that cross getting to the back post.

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 19:33:24
I know it’s his first game in a while but Sinclair is rotten and is 100% not better than Moi or Mikey. He needs to go in Jan. so predictable cutting inside all the time.

Believable1 Unbelievable0

12 Dec 2019 20:30:28
Nonsense. A fully up to speed Sinclair blows both johnstone and morgan away.

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 21:04:45
Well he blew his chance tonight kev. i've been wanting him to get a chance for as long as u have but im afraid he won't get many more on that showing.

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 21:14:01
He was up to speed last season and was rotten. That’s why he lost his place in the team.

Agree1 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 22:18:55
He has played about 45 minutes all season and some fans seem to think he should be at the top of his game.

Rotten last season except being the second top goal scorer and making it in to the top 10 in europe along with james forrest for combined goals and assists.
Aye that's shocking eh.

Both johnstone and morgan won't even hit double figures for goals this season.

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 22:30:46
Morgan wont, Mikey will.

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 18:44:29
Lewis Morgan needs for Xmas a multi gym pump some iron and get some upper muscle strength he pushed off the ball to simple and lose the ball to easy lennon needs to address this problem frimpong is smaller faster stronger so I don't thin Morgan is good enough or strong enough.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

12 Dec 2019 19:12:36
Morgan is rank rotten mate!

Agree3 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 20:08:40
NL has a huge blind-spot regarding Morgan as he is definitely not Celtic class in any shape or form - at the moment. He should have been loaned out again to get some experience to monitor any improvement (if any) ; however, it seems the manager rates him?

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 20:31:08
Does anyone know what has happened to shved? Was hoping he would be ahead of morgan.

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 17:41:05
What position is the boy Savoury? I’ve heard he’s a tasty player πŸ™‚ come on the squad players out in a shift and get a favourable result? And let us pray for Porto and young boys do the business πŸ˜‚πŸ€πŸ†πŸ†πŸ†.

Even though he has had no gane time to mention. What will happen if Sinclair has an absolute blinder of a game?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

12 Dec 2019 17:02:48
Hopefully forces his way into contention but can't see it even if he rattles in a few.

Does anybody know if griff is fit and sinclair is fit I hope he gives them a game Lewis Morgan not good enough sinclair should get the nod hopefully scores goals.

I guess all will be revealed soon jinky. I'm hoping shved gets game time.

12 Dec 2019 15:33:36
What a strange situation we Celtic fans are in tonight, ie not worrying about result in europe, even a defeat does not harm us except in the pocket.
But I am not into this "hope both teams win to improve Scotland's CL coefficient" No if we get 2 CL places it only helps Sevco and they even enter at same stage as us for finishing second.
No come on Cluj and Young Bhoys tonight lol
By the way UEFA have appointed a German referee in the new club's game who is card happy, 8 reds so far by him, so my usual bet of a booking for Morelos is looking good at 11/ 10, also a neutral referee will "miraculously" see ALL the fouls el buffalo makes that Scottish refs fail to spot.

Believable2 Unbelievable0

12 Dec 2019 15:59:13
Yeah, but he will probably behave himself as he can't get away with all the nonsense he pulls in the spl.

Agree1 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 17:08:40
The extra place might help them but the less qualifiers help us.
So for that reason I ain't bothered one way or the other how they get on
If they go through cool that helps us.
If they go out ha get it up yeez.

Agree2 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 17:28:50

Ed if that lot were to win their group we would both be seeded for next round. Obviously we both can't play in Glasgow on 27th February. What would be the situation in this case?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed007's Note -

21.03 - If more than one club from the same city, or within a radius of 50km (31 miles) of each other, is taking part in any of the UEFA club competitions and/or plays in the same stadium, and if the association and the clubs concerned explicitly declare when entering the clubs that their matches cannot be played on the same day or on consecutive days, the UEFA administration may alter or confirm dates and kickoff times in accordance with the principles set by the Club Competitions Committee.

Which basically means they'll cross that bridge when they come to it, in the past when it's happened they usually just have different K.O. times but that might not be practical in Glasgow.}

12 Dec 2019 13:28:20
Just a follow up to this one Ed. Will the away leg not be affected in this situation i. e UEFA will not decide one of the clubs will play their home leg first?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - They could change one of them.}

12 Dec 2019 18:18:04
U would like to think the club with the highest co efficient would benefit from any decisions to be made.

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 09:43:46
I know there are people who don't like him but seems rod Stewart was causing havoc in the directors box at weekend.

Bamming up the mobs directors that much one of their sons tried to give him a slap

{Ed007's Note - Stewart was probably too pished to remember what team he was supporting but Bear on Bear fighting is always good to see.}

Is griff out there sinclair good bet goal scores.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

12 Dec 2019 11:12:38
Would love to see Griff get at least one goal tonight. Just hope he is relaxed and not going out to try and impress. doesn't have to impress anyone as far as Im concerned as he is a fantastic striker. On sunday Morelos tried too hard to impress and score against us and he certainly did as he has become a Celtic Legend. Sometimes you can try too hard. If Morelas is worth 50m Griff must be priceless.

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Dec 2019 11:46:55
Celtic FC have been great with Griff and patient. Hope he can get goals and get back oo form as we need him he also needs this to work and show Celtic how much it means to him tat Celtic have looked after him. Hope it all works well tonight and he plays a blinder HH.
