    Also mate, a team unbeaten at home in 14 in CL and Europa and who just pumped Legia 3-1 at home.

    Celtic completed 542 passes from 615 attempted to Astana's 258 passes from 317 attempted, 63% possession to Celtic. Think about that!!!!!!

    8-4 is a pumping, no matter how and when you get the goals

    Jeeeeesuuusssss! Was fuming at 4-1 but on reflection. A makeshift CB pairing, no Roberts, 1 fit striker and 4-3 is the same as a 1-0 and 8-4 on aggregate

    All in, it's not a bad result really. Poor defense was the only reason they were in the tie. Watching it though must have been a nightmare, thank * I was at work

    Positives to take from that: we are through, Ntcham is class and great experience for Ajer, Ralston and Ntcham. Also we have Dembele, Kouassi and Boyata to come back from injury and Paddy and possibly another new signing (or 2) still to come.

    Negatives: Our experienced players, Brown, Bitton and Lustig were woeful.

    I'm not writing off Ajer, I think if he'd been beside Jozo he'd have been fine. But it does outline how important Jozo is, if he gets crocked we are in trouble.

    Thank *, will give this a watch later.

    I felt these converted defenders could cause problems. Now we're through we'll not get away with it now.

    Missed this but it sounded like a poor performance on the radio updates.

    Still, job done :celt_2:
