Official Celtic V Rapid Vienna match chat thread

of course absolutely happy with that point.

maybe a bit lucky, thinking of the early stages of the second half, but i have to say, i always felt we could do a bit more upfront if necessary.

still, glad we didn´t lose by a late goal.
would have blamed A. Dober for it anyways, was our weakest member tonight

 

* why did we just make those subs what use is that going to * do . this team frustrates the life out of me . the obvous changes were .


mcginn for mcgeady .

robson for brown .

killen for samaras .

why take our best player off in n'guemo . that was tacticaly idiotic .awful just awful .

 

we out off europe at start off oct. not on. tony clueless manager.

 

mate if you think Melloney and nguemo were knackered and needed subbed then you as well as TM needs there head looking at.

We never hammered them, if we hammered tgem would would be sitting way the win, and a couple, maybe 3 goals to show for it, instead we are 1 point in the group and 6 games without a win in Europe at home.

 

Unlucky just one of those nights but maloney should have stayed on, not sure if the group is really qualifiable now... We have to get at least 2 wins to be within a chance

 

Rather lucky point for us even though the equaliser was a real gift that brought you back to life. You kept the pressure up but weren't really piercing. Still way better than Hamburg, mind.

1-0 to our support though!

 

Caldwell was * , again .

 

Seems to me like Scott Brown is beginning to believe the hype too much, un-impressive for me again tonight.

 

mowbrary * off * right off a was a strach supporter and yeh he would have won this match who the * uses all the subs with twenty to go and takes off two good players am starting to really hate the * not just that a felt more safer with strach how many times we lost a goal first 15 mins in games becaquse him bring back strachan now

 

aww\shut up lol :icon_mrgreen: .

BTW your fans were a credit to your club tonight

what happened to the celtic fans i know it's only the europa league but come on no atmosphere at all tonight .

 

It was our defenders (Dober & Co.) who caused all the trouble!!! At the end we were lucky to get a point. But – be aware. We are much stronger at home!!!
:bbpd:<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>

 

Also slightly dissapointed with some of the comments, it's like people are expecting a win every game, yea that's what we all want but we aren't barca or anyone. And yea I'm dissapointed but people calling for tm to be sacked?!

 

We are absalutely garbage, no point in talkin about how we dominated and should have scored, were not here to wait for ifs and buts.

we just have to accept we cannot compete in Europe, END OF.

TM decisions are mind boggling, how he waited till the last 10 minutes and put 3 subs on at the same time is crazy. Also long balls were never going to get us the goal we needed. The standard of the squad is nowhere good enough!!!

 

when i say * i mean * because we didnt win and i expect us to play well against teams like that coz they arent good! we should be beating teams like that especially at home! we had what 4 chances in 2nd half should at least score 1 of them thats how its *

 

Truly sublime pun

Dreadful pass to McDonald, absolutely dreadful.

Maloney was really impressive. If it wasn't against us I'd say he would have deserved a goal.

 

i agree mogga was bad tonight it was with 10 to go BTW .

 

Also slightly dissapointed with some of the comments, it's like people are expecting a win every game, yea that's what we all want but we aren't barca or man
Utd. And yea I'm dissapointed but people calling for tm to be sacked?!

 

just wanted to say that. way more organized and of course much more affection in play. makes the point even more worthy.

 

don't want a win every game naw, but 1, just 1 at home in Europe in the last 6 would have done me!

 

We have hired an inept manager, it appears as if we're a learning experience for him since he's making some of the craziest tactical decisions I have ever seen.

First, the change from man marking to zonal marking, it's what gave them their goal with both defenders left in no mans land. I saw Caldwell repeatedly receive the ball far past the halfway line where he should be nowhere near.

Secondly, the triple substitution which any person with a basic understanding of football tactics and chemistry should know won't work. It only gave them 10 minutes to blend together which is not going to happen, you need to give them 20 minutes at least.

Lastly and this is something that was something that was an obvious mistake in our last European performance, YOU DON'T TAKE OFF YOUR BEST PLAYERS! Maloney was playing out of his boots during the match and looked our best chance to score and yet he's taken off for Killen who adds nothing to the squad.

It's not all doom and gloom, we had good spells during the match but it was overshadowed by poor decisions by Mowbray.
