Watched it again. First half we were so off it, not for the first time against them. On the one hand 17 points don't lie. And you can't argue about a possible Treble. We are Simply the Best but only because we're the best of a bad bunch.
On the other hand, and it would be unfair to single players out, I think we're weak throughout the team.
A big summer ahead for Celtic. I'll defer to those of us who go to the games but all things considered, I think we're mediocre.
Then another part of me thinks enjoy and appreciate our dominance while it lasts.
Tear me to shreds lads if I'm talking crap. Confused. com.

We should always be looking to improve and progress from a position of strength and there definitely are areas we need to strengthen.
There's also the possibility of players leaving in the summer, so there should be (hopefully quality) additions in the summer.

Celtic mad is mostly correct . Whilst we can never rest on our laurels, our team has shown its strength and ability in our long difficult season with success on four fronts . Watching a game against a team created less than 13 yrs ago by criminals and maintained by fraud and cheating ever since doesn’t give a true picture of our strengths and weaknesses .
We are currently 17 points ahead of the field in SPL and could well finish 20 pts or more ahead if we really wanted to . We have won League Cup and have Scottish Cup Final to look forward to . In Europe we showed very good improvement and beat some very good teams in our Champions League .
May I suggest anyone who wants to give judgement should rewatch all the meaningful competitive games before we come up with a judgement which most Celtic fans wouldn’t agree with.
God help our club if Board and manager agreed and ripped out the heart of our team to remove the mediocrity of it.

Im with you we’re weak all over the park every position can be improved upon and we need dig in middle of the park. But Jota and Khun were big losses in terms of wing options. We’re relying on James Forrest who didn’t let us down but is older than Ed 007. It’s indeed a big window for the club with question marks hanging over recruitment generally and the good feather hatted football doctor in particular. I don’t agree we’re mediocre though I think our performances against the best of the best in Europe and including Bayern disproves that allegation. By the way we’re having a podcast on Wednesday night. jfp.

I thought our build up play and passing was a good bit crisper than previous derbies. When we got in and around the box we looked lost though. We miss a Rogic/ O'Reilly type CAM.
