    May have something to do with there being more movement up top, with the two strikers dragging defenders about.

    Forgot it was him that put scepovic through, was inch perfect..

    For the one he * with the goalie , it was as if he didn't know what to do or was waiting for the keeper to commit, either way it shoulda been certain goal..

    I was hoping Ronny would have gave him a wee rest, but was happy to see him upping his game again yesterday and playing a big part in the first goal

    Aye, he seemed to just hesitate and it allowed the Kilmarnock player to get a tackle in. I was waiting on him just side footing it past the keeper. It was a very good move that actually. Good chipped ball by Johansen and great awareness and chest down by Scepovic for McGregor. I was a bit surprised by some people's comments regarding the game when I came on here last night. I thought we played some decent stuff yesterday, and had we had our shooting boots on, it would have been 5 or 6, and everyone would have been talking about how well we played more than likely.

    The young Kilmarnock keeper had an excellent game I thought.

    Aye, he did mate, coupled with a few very good blocks as well from defenders, and a wee bit of luck kept the scoreline down.

    Aye, could tell why Kilmarnock are doing decent this season, a lot of heart in there performance and bravery on the ball. Pascali * it for them, it would have been a hard game if not for the sending off.

    You would have been looking for Scepovic to score when he was clean through, and I think we would have still went on to win the game. Of course, the red card changes the game, but I thought we were the better team even when it was 11 v 11.

    Yeah the chest down by scepovic was was quality, even though i thought he was poor Thursday he played a lovely little backheel in the box as well and also in his bounce game where he done a nice flick on the halfway line that set up the goal so definitely does have some skill in his locker the big man..

    Mcgregor was better yesterday but i still feel he should be coming on a sub for a few games, there's nothing wrong with that and it just takes him out the firing line for a while and gives a few others a shot, forrest , tonev, Matthews or griffiths so we have options in that department..

    Have to say I usually dont want him in the team but ive liked him tonight. More mature performance in an away European game.

    He is a skilled footballer with good ability and improvin

    Not done much or really anything ging forward but hes been much smarter defensively, falling back into place for Johansen or Lustig allsorta times

    important in away games to defend well and remain solid in past games hes not done anything at the back

    It's amazing how opinions can differ. I think he has been very poor tonight. Didnt get himself involved in the game at all tonight and should have been subbed.

    Offers nothing going forward. Against pish sides like Astra, we need someone like Forrest (or better) instead.

    He was utterly, utterly shocking. One of the most anonymous european performances from one of our players in a while.

    No idea why he was kept on.

    I know Wakaso didn't have a great game, but at least he looked a little lively. Bringing Matthews on instead, and playing him left wing, didn't really make much sense.

    he is a very tidy player and his movement is fantastic , he could fit into a really good side as he has the football brain , however he doesn't influence games enough , he seems to enjoy doing the quiet efficient "keeping the ball moving " role...but he needs to realise he isnt iniesta or scholes and needs to start imposing himself on celtic matches. He is being mis managed imo.
