Great performance today from the team. Aberdeen couldn't get near us and I've never seen such a 1 sided final for as long as I can remember. Good to be a tim at the moment. Mon The Hoops!

Proud to be a celtic man today, Great win again after a hard week hardly gave aberdeen a chance. Things can only get better we have landed a true manager worthy of the club the supporters and the players Nothing is beyond us given time.

Nobody in Scotland can beat us as long as we perform to our capabilities. The best of it is we are only going to get better and we have a young team on the most part.

28 Nov 2016 14:00:31
Yes a Young team with most if not see their future at Celtic for at least a couple of years.

Brilliant win and performance on what can only be described as a coo field. Surely there must be a solution to that pitch. How many players from both sides fell or slipped? It must've been murder to play on, it was moving like sand under their feet. Anyway great achievement 100 trophies. 🍀🍀🏆.

Just seen the video of Bertie auld there hahaha what a character give us the treble for the lions! In the heat of Lisbon . thanks Celtic for another terrific day.

Great performance from all the players, as others have said broony was outstanding today n just drives the team on leading by example. Wee james played really well n looked a lot more dangerous than he has in weeks n took his goal well, hopefully he finds that consistency n end product more regularly. The absence of sinclair will allow Roberts n Forrest both to play alongside rogic.
Big erik n simo both great again as were the rest n rogic is now a mainstay of the team.
1st part of the treble complete, well done brendan n the lads.
Hail hail.

After seeing the players lift the trophy, my favourite part was laughing at that wee bigot McInnes.

Too easy boys.

Gordon- not a lot to do but what he did he did well.

Lustig- as ever mister dependable.

Simi- strolled it. Guy getting better every game.

Svia-strolled it as well. Building a good understanding with big jozo.

Izzy. Very good game.

Brown- captains fantastic this season and again was great

Armstrongs- good game. Worked hard. Should have had a goal though

Forrest- great game. Scores one wins then wins the penalty. My MOTM

Rogic- really good game. Great goal.

Roberts- good game.

Dembele- good game worked hard tired things. Great penalty

Biton- played well. Help see out the game.

Mcgregor-not a lot of time but worked hard and was busy.

Griffiths- no time to make impression.

To be honest, I thought lustig lost his way for a bit in 2nd half, throw ins, and passes straight to an Aberdeen player, putting the team under pressure a bit but probably just being over critical, excellent dominant game from Celtic.

28 Nov 2016 22:49:24
Kev83 Very good assessment and I certainly agree with Forrest and Lustig . Lustig showed he was still fresh as he jumped the advertising hurdle after getting a Swedish flag after the match.

27 Nov 2016 16:30:59
Absolutely delighted with how game is going just thinking how good could Armstrong be if he can get that consistency in his passing really think the boy is so close to being the complete midfielder.

Enjoy the day bhoys

Anyone know if Sinclair is 'out for a month' as some reports states, or is there a chance?

My team if SS is unavailable would be:

Gordon
Lustig
Eric
Joao
Izzy (shame for KT, missing the final)
Brown
Armstrong
Roberts
Forest
Rigid
Moussa

I would want to see LG coming of the bench for a goal, as he has been top drawer for us, turned his career/ life around and has really turned into a great player for us.

The dons will be no mugs today, we need pass the ball with speed tonfrustrate them. I reckon they will come out the traps with aggression to try and stop us dominating the midfield.
Rogic (if starting) will be key


Hail hail.

27 Nov 2016 12:08:47
'Rigid' LOL :D.

27 Nov 2016 12:38:20
If we put our chances away we will pump them.

All set for the match, got beers chilling, dinner all preped for after the match, wife and kds away for the day and just about to get the tunes on to get hyped up.

COYBIG.

The loss of Sinclair, along with the absence of KT leaves us very weak down the left and Izzy needs to step up and avoid mistakes.
Dembele was isolated on Wed, but today the other forward players will have more time and space to link-up and create and we should keep the pace and pressing as sharp as possible to take the initiative.

27 Nov 2016 13:49:48
If I was as confident of the rest of the team putting in a shift as I am of Izzy i wouldn't have any worries .
Big deal Dembele was a bit isolated were playing one of the top three club teams in the world.

28 Nov 2016 13:37:31
They will look to exploit Izzy. He is the weak link. I like him though and hope he can return to his former self. A worry though.

Taking our chances has not happened lately I hope today is the day.

27 Nov 2016 11:46:41
I think we may be in for a tough game today, they are going to be physical again. I think we need to pay attention to Maddison for the sheep as I think he can be a game changer for them. I'm saying that if we fire how we should we should have more than enough for them. But they are certainly not there just to lie down for us, especially with that Hun in charge. I'm looking forward to him passing on his congratulations if we beat them 🙈.

Poor cup final. Thought we were disjointed, never really got going and very exchanges m are. Aberdeen were worse. History books will show we won the cup so more than happy. Let's power on and wrap up the league ASAP then bring home the Scottish!

27 Nov 2016 07:13:00
What to what to do must be the question on BR mind after our CL qualifing who stays who goes, What do i need to compete at the highest level
Goalie perhaps but not right away
Defence needs pace and backup fullbacks
Midfield needs strengh and guile
Forwards the one area we look ok prehaps another winger or can we keep and develop what we have.

The vast majority of the squad has been inherited and it's obvious there are several (some out on loan, others floating about) that are not good enough or not in his plans and there are others who get a game, but are obviously not good enough for the demands at Celtic.
If he is here for the long haul, I am sure he has a list of potential targets right through the team to bring us up to the standard he requires and the supporters will appreciate - going by the difference he has made in the short time, so far.
