UCL Last 16: Celtic v Juventus Chat

* swapping scarfs with this *....ledley been doing good.

 

Same here, it will be a *

 

Was the same in the first leg it's like it's trendy to say he is class even when he is anonymous

 

On the positive side, how good will we be in 1 or 2 years when all these bhoys have European experience and another year in them?
It's really pleasing to see us utterly dominate a top European side away from home.

Yes, it would be better for us to do a WGS or Walter Smith, but playing expansive, good, quick passing football and at least trying to make a game of it is what I want to see and i'm glad Lenny is brave. Just inexperience has killed us this season.

 

We've given the ball away far too cheaply at times and thats whats hurting us. Also we're struggling to create any real chances.

 

For me the better team is always the team that wins.

The game is all about winning

 

It could easily be that scoreline in our favour over the two legs. Easily. The * are clinical as * though.

 

Exactly

I don't know how tactics can be wrong if we have more possession and more shots over the two legs. It's just lack of quality finishing.

We are playing high-pressure, posession football. What would be the point in, for example, counter-attack when they will sit back and defend?

Absolutely nothing to do with tactics this game, it's been a case of defensive unforced errors and lack of finishing.

 

Their plan is to sit back and pick Celtic off on the counter, it is obvious to anyone who can watch a game impartially. They've done it in both games. They are happy to let Celtic have the ball high up the pitch because it opens the game up for their counter. They know Celtic can't break them down which is evident from both of your examples which would be termed as "half-chances". Hopper almost touched the ball. Buffon saved a deflected shot from outside the box. There hasn't been a real chance created because, and I repeat, Juve know Celtic don't have the quality or the smarts to break them down. They look out of ideas, it is get it wide, * cross, lose the ball, repeat until Juve score.

 

Give Hooper 10-15 minutes, then get him off. I knew we should have given Miku more game time, but Lenny always sticks with Hooper and right now he's not a threat at all

 

Wanyama has been a beast! Love the guy so much. Just dominates whoever he comes up against. It's hilarious how poorly Matri has done going up against him.

Whine some more, *! :smiley-laughing002:

 

Need stokes and hooper on. But personally I'd be takin commons and kayal off.
Izzys crossing is * but has defended pretty well. Mulgrew is not that good at lb. stokes and Forrest on, push wanyama in cm, mulgrew cb.

 

i enjoyed that ad

 

Mate dont kid yourself, a few of the players will be off in the summer.

 

Lenny be brave ring the changes now .

 

Imagine if we had Chris Sutton over the two legs, very different score

 

I really wish we had a big centre forward that could head a ball.
Hartson would be on a hat trick right now with all the crosses coming in.
Mulgrew should be putting the balls into the box though

 

Ahhh quite right its freezing :smiley-laughing002:

Proud of the bhoys tonight

Like Collins just said we are crossing from to deep, they are easy to defend

Get Forrest on I'm surprised he never started to be honest

Don't know if I would take commons off as he could play the striker role and has more creativity, skill and can also score = better than hooper

Could take Emilio off put ambrose at the back and get big Vic back in midfield putting mulgrew at left back but then that may give us other weaknesses

Settle for hooper and commons change places take of hooper for Forrest and go for it
