The Ronny Deila Thread

I thought he did well too, bit erratic, but good, Matthews did well too, especially first half.

As for Ronny, if he can deliver a treble I'll be more than happy.

 

Well, it shows how * the rest of the team is if he's the best player.

 

So what, you were at the game, i still saw him ON the ball as clearly as you did..
There were 10 player worse off than Mcgregor and Matthews was definitely one of them, yin.picked out one fault when he didn't look to his right and play Matthews through..Well done..

 

Said some things in the match thread that were purely out of frustration I will give Ronny the benefit of the doubt for now if the league form is hit and miss then I will raise questions again

 

The other players are struggling with the new formation.

Biton and Mulgrew, two slow players playing in a 2-man midfield, if one gets caught out the other cant recover - terrible stuff

Johansen on the wing, Johansen spent most of the game inside and Izaguirre was having to cover the whole wing, Izzy was left wide open with 2 men against him on his side for almost the entire game.

McGregor playing 2 deep basically standing in Matthews from pocket and he has no pace so 9/10 when he got the ball he couldnt do anything.

We all spent 6 months last season watching Commons playing off Stokes and knew it was pish, and thats what was played. Neither have the pace to run away from anybody and neither of them can get onto crosses.

We were pishing into gale force winds playing those tactics.

Matthews, Izaguirre, Lustig, Van Dijk, Mulgrew, Biton, Johansen and Stokes were all hampered by the tactics played tonight.

 

I'm still in shock that the board allowed this to happen.

If the player's have attitude towards Deila's methods or expectations, they know where the door is.

Tbh I hope Deila gives the board an ultimatum - back me or I walk. It won't happen but he needs funds desperately.

 

If he doesn't qualify for the Europa League the game is up.

 

Hope that quotes true and he has an overhaul of the squad and gets his own men in.

 

No it's not.

 

It's his 1st proper crack at Europe I'm sure he's learnt a lot tonight and we won't be as open in the Europa League are we back at Paradise for it?

 

No chance.

He will be given the time he needs to build his own squad and get rid of some of the * that we have currently. It looks likely that either Forster or Virgil, perhaps both, will be sold now anyway to make up some of the money lost from CL qualification.

 

Prediction, and it doesn't sit well with me.

If, and maybe even before then, we don't qualify for the Europa League, Ronny will be out. To support this, until 72 hours ago, our Club Captain had said nothing until he was put before the Press to answer questions and advertise the game. The acting Captain, Charlie has said nothing. The only ones who have spoken are the Scandanavian trio of Mikael, Johansen and Berget. By sacking Ronny, it will enable Celtic to go to the Press with 'it was a painful decision but we feel we have to look ahead and it is best in the circumstances.' It will enable The Club to immediately bring in a 'Celtic Man', e.g. Mackay or Coyle...can't see Moyes coming who will be seen as the one to 'unite' the players and take the Club forward.

In business it is always easier to remove one rather than many.

 

We're not getting into the Europa League anyways barring a miracle..... we do and Deila is a *.

 

* is ordinary man on about? Why would he sack him in August for 2 losers like Mackay and Coyle?

 

Biggest lot of nonsense I have heard. They bring in a guy for a few games to get us * out of Europe so they can bring in a Celtic minded manager? my days.

 

Embarrassing

 

What is?

 

It should be.

The squad needs a lot of work yes and he has been let down by the board in regards to investment but that team is capable of holding it's own against a bang average mob like Legia. He has * up massively and if he doesn't redeem himself in the EL, the fans will want his head.

 

He's been dealt a terrible squad, which will probably get even worse in the coming days and weeks. There's no way Forster and van dijk will be hanging around now that champions league football is out the window.

He's made some questionable decisions, no doubt about it, but he's the man hte board have picked, and how the like his philosophy, well now is the time to get the wallet out and get some players in, good enough that will fit into his style of play. Last season should of been the wake up call needed to realise that the squad was bare of any real quality, barring 3 or 4 players, it should of been strengthened in the summer but wasn't, and now we're starting to see the consequences of not doing so.

Continually downsizing is going to lead to inevitable failure, we scraped by last time but this time we came up against better opposition and were found out horribly.

 

It is aye. Our worst European defeat ever.
