CCV really surprised me today. Seen him a few weeks ago for Tottenham and though he looked poor but thought he looked very composed and capable today.
I want to like Greg Taylor but he's just miles of what is needed. We improved when young Monty came on.
Great 3 points. Turnbull needs to get back to his best still and Rogics passing was poor in my opinion the last couple of games feel we have lacked a bit of spark in CM think we need McGregor further forward.
There is definitely a striker in Ajeti but big questions over whether he fits the team. He just seems the big poacher type. Young Abada has flashes but I'm yet to be convinced he's a starting RW for the season. But he's definitely someone ti think will improve massively in time.
Anyway not meant to be negative just more thought provoking. I have huge confidence in this team and think we will win the league. I just think we need a few players back to full fitness and are definitely still rebuilding.

I’m sure Celtic will continue to rebuild in the January window.
The first half of the season will probably have its ups and downs due to the amount of new players Celtic have brought in recently.
We need to stay in contention to mount a serious title challenge in the second half of the season.

Completely agree with that sensible words BB.

Only seen some highlights, and I don't know who was to blame, but the defence was cut open a few times and a better team than Ross County would have scored a few goals .

Aindoh with the positivity as usual lol.

Point is it was Ross County we were playing and when it came to it Joe Hart came up trumps. I'm looking forward to seeing how Liam Scales plays when he gets a chance.
11 Sep 2021 20:44:34
What about when we beat that Dutch mob 2 0 going on 5 or 6 though?
11 Sep 2021 21:08:51
We can’t have it both ways.
Ange wants our fullbacks to come inside and help the midfielders and if there’s a loose ball, our fullbacks are caught out of position.
Celtic will create loads of chances but we will also give away chances at the back.
11 Sep 2021 22:28:35
That's why we need fast mobile centre backs, I know it was a first time of those centre backs playing together, but it was Ross County we were playing, and they could have put us to the sword, if they had finished better, it might not be positive to point it out, but it's realistic, on a positive note can't wait untill Kyota is fit to play in the middle with Jota and Abada on the wings.

If ifs and ands were pots and pans
There’d be no work for tinkers’ hands!

Could've, should've but didn't, but they were Ross County not Real Betis
If wishes were fishes
I know where I'd be
Casting my nets
In the deep rolling sea.
{Ed007's Note - We won 3-0, scored 3 and didn't concede - that's a good day's work for any team. If Ross County were playing Man Utd what would the score have been? Celtic were playing them and won 3-0 and you're still girning about it, at least you seen highlights and didn't go with what you heard on the radio which is a bit of an improvement for you.

Me to, when I'm losing the argument, I always resort to Shakespeare.
{Ed007's Note - Good for you but I don't think that's Shakespeare, did you watch that on the radio again?

Yesterday's game was exactly what would be expected after an international break, controlled the game but some passes wayward, and some players like turnbull over attempting a killer ball then not closing down quick enough when he lost possession. However against Ross County you expect a win and we got it. The danger moments against us were created by us, they will be more disciplined moving forward. Took my son for his first game and he was delighted to celebrate 3 goals and witness the atmosphere for the first time, and he had zero complaints about the game so I'll take his youthful perspective on the match and be very satisfied the win and clean sheet was achieved.
Jota could be a real crowd pleaser this season some nice flicks and tricks and on another day abada gets a hatrick, unlucky with hitting the bar.
Hopefully ajeti gains plenty confidence from his two goals HH.

Ed - "Thine face is not worth sunburning"
Aindoh - "I'll beat thee, but I would infect my hands"
Ed - "I do desire we be better strangers"
Aindoh - "More of tour conversation would infect my brain"
Ed - "Would thou wert clean enough to spit on"
Game set and match -I love a good petty handbags at dawn! So to the two of you "Peace, ye fat guts"
