    Celtic were so exposed that we all seen their true ego. :31:
    wee baws.

    I need to reword this statement:

    Celtic were so exposed that we all seen their true ego.
    The Ghirls at the game required their galilean binoculars while the rest of the jewellery rattlers lay silent.

    Is a stand-up area behind the goals just another lost cause?
    All we are getting is Peter Midas holding a toilet roll when it comes to game day at Celtic Park.

    I agree, think Griffiths will be the shining light for the rest of the season in terms of entertainment value.

    Commons 2 players on him most times couldn't get into the game and when he did poor touch let him down, midfield was basically brown and johansen samaras[hopefully never too be seen in a celtic shirt again] wasn't interested and forrest cant defend and again only showed in patches of the game. Ambrose once again was on another planet reminiscent of the juve game at times, Aberdeen wanted to win more and after they got their 2nd never looked like they were troubled by celtic.

    watched the hi-lights again last night and the anylasis of the zonal marking just showed how bad we are at it. Lenny said we knew aberdeens best chance of a goal was a set piece .... and still set up exactly how they expected us to .

    Aye, must have taught Lennon it.

    I've never heard it spoke about so much though in recent years.

    I dont see why we cant play 2 strikers from the off in games, with commons then in behind the 2.
    Said this a few times this season.

    Our team seems not to want to try. Aberdeen beat us. Big wow. They are * and any other day if Celtic played like we know they can they would have destroyed that team but Celtic players seem to have lost interest.
    So a so-so Aberdeen team played against an uninterested, uninspiring Celtic team.
    Hopefully this will be a wake up call for Lennon but i honestly don't think it will.

    better team won nae doubt about that . I used love going parkhead always boiling atmosphere and intimidating and we loved it but now its a stadium of bonnie langfords sitting on there hands waiting for everything on a plate. Last 20 years you and your neighbours have bought up any young talent coming threw any sign threat and its il have him, and then you moan about nae competition . Soon as there is toys come out. Come out your bubbles live in the real world look at your budget with regards finances compared to the rest is it really that great winning leagues and cups. Look forward to your other cheek when they come back in league see how great fans are when there struggling mid table and they will. Look forward to couple weeks when we gub ye again.:50:

    The sheep fans yesterday sounded like huns. Usual songs about child abuse and telling Lenny to get to * back home.

    a miniscule minority of course :rolleyes:

    Good point, it's something that's been working for us or we have been getting away with but against anyone with quality or half decent and clever we get exposed badly in the 6 yard box..

    It's a tactic I hate,i've seen so many big sides look stupid using zonal!
