Why do we need seven passes before attempting to put balls into the box when it could be done with the first one? And the balls we do put in are from central positions which are usually over hit or need three touches to control. Far too slow to get forward, no one taking any responsibility just passing for the sake and still pissing around in the overcrowded area in front of the box instead of using width. We need to up the tempo and stop playing at their pace.

I originally thought BR was at fault for changing a winning system and altering formation and tactics, but I think the players have to take a lot of responsibility for the predictability and tempo of our play. None of the wingers attack the full-back enough and get to the bye line to cut the ball back and we try to play through packed defenses far too much without the control and composure required. Quite frankly, far too many opt for passing the buck sideways or backwards because we don't have enough decent passers or crossers of a ball in this squad and that's criminal for a Celtic side.
