Celtic vs Legia Warsawa (UCL 3rd round qualifier, August 6th 7.45. NOT ON TV).

Can stick his philosophy up his * if thats how its going to pan out. Would take Strachans tactics back before I sat and watched a bunch of donkeys try to play two touch football.

 

Plus the fact that he wasn't even able to buy a player. Gordon who had no club and Berget who played 10 mins for a relegated team last season

 

When did I blame it on one player???

Was he not useless??

 

Embarrassing. That was painful to watch.
Crazy to think it could have been a lot worse than 4-1 too!

 

Berget did absolutely * all tbh though. Don't know why he was in the starting XL to begin with.

 

Unfortunately I agree!

 

Aye cos Berget caused that the night.

 

If we cant beat legia ee wont get out of the groups

 

Can we all get of the VVD band wagon please, hes good when he's got all the time in the world in the spl, he's been useless in Europe this season, Forster must stay! Or my * i'll be * irate!

 

Need something explained? Is it not quite clear that this mob are pish and we should be wrecking them?

 

Can't get my head around Griffith and Izzy not starting....

 

it will probs be his last game so Fraser should be captain next week, charlie failed terribly.

 

What I don't understand is, we give away two penalties, and even though we're let off with both of them we still can't see it out. The defense was horrendous.

 

Truthfully that was like a re-run of the Brazil v Germany game. I paid to watch that tonight and to be honest after watching all our games so far this season due to also getting Celtic TV I can honestly say that I'm not too surprised. We are utterly shambolic defensively and have given away chance after chance to even the poorest of teams in every game. The back four have gone from a cohesive effective force to wayward and clueless. There is absolutely no defensive cover coming from midfield, I have noticed that in every game, there's constant options for the opposing team not only in the final third but even in the BOX.

From minute 1 to 90 our midfield look knackered because they are running about like headless chickens. They try to press as Ronny wishes but a basic six yard pass takes them out the game and they CANNOT be bothered or are unable to get back. When they do receive a pass they are isolated, tired and give the ball away. We do not press as a team and therefore leave huge gaps in between our lines it is embarrassingly easy for teams to pick us off.

I said months ago upon hearing Ronnys philosiphy that I hoped he would play a solid 4-5-1 when in Europe as I thought we did not have the players to play good European teams at their own game and would be handed a good few beatings, I just did not think than that it would come so early against such a mediocre outfit. We are all but out, it could have been 8 or 9 tonight no complaints. Ronny must sort this out and restore some pride in the second leg.

 

Berget being chucked into the team was an incredibly poor decision, the guy has played, what 1 competitive game in the past 6 months? What the * was Ronny thinking. That's not chucking the blame on him either as it clearly wasn't his fault.

 

If the correct team was picked then that wouldn't have happened tonight! The team and tactics were a shambles, it looked like nobody knew what they were supposed to do. New players would be great but that team should have been more than capable of getting a result against a mediocre polish team tonight. The board can take part of the blame for not putting money up front but players, management and tactics were to blame for tonight's disaster not the board

 

* sake man I knew it. So angry and disappointed right now

 

No... it wasn't.

Legia are a better team than Artmedia were. We were horsed from start to finish in that game whereas we were as good (if not better) than Legia for the first 20 mins of this game.

 

Embarrassing performance tonight, starting that new guy was the first mistake instead of emilio. Fair enough we got the goal through mcgregor, who was the only positive performance in the whole team, but after that im not sure that we even had a shot on goal? The sending off was correct but ambrose had no choice in the matter but to bring the guy down or we could be looking at a 5, 6-1 scoreline. I am a huge fan of Mulgrew but he was the worst player on the park, had a play in all of their goals albeit they missed the penalty. I will be a photographer at murrayfield next week and im not convinced i will be taking many shots of celtic celebrations if there is another performance like that!

 

I have a bad feeling about Ronny Deila the same feeling I had when John Barnes was in charge. The players were bad but the tactics were *. Very lucky that was not 6 or 7 one. I can see Celtic taking a hiding at home as well.
