    Boyata is a * beast, playing with the spirit of Bobo.

    Let's hope we do what we normally have lately and come back out in the 2nd half like a new team and finish this game off

    Boyata and Brown are immense. Roberts and Rogic have done the square-root of *-all so far.

    Not wanting to be arrogant but I really afraid of what PSG will do to this Anderlecht side. Their attacking is good but the defending is atrocious. Some SPL sides were harder to break in.

    Boyata and Simunovic best performances so far. Apart from the goal set up, Ntcham has had an awful game so far. Nothing Roberts could really do very heavily marked.

    Hopefully they'll start opening up when they attack.

    Rogic, ntcham and roberts have been poor, but im hoping rogic or roberts can get space in 2nd half as they press.

    We've dominated possession

    Great half. Settled in well after an nervy start.
    62% possession
    42 attacks anderlect
    69 attacks Celtic

    Dominant enough first half.

    Half time talk should set us up nicely.
    Anderlect look rattled they didn’t offer anything to fear that half.


    Yeeeeooooooo

    Great to be 1-0 up, we can finish them as they press in the 2nd half. Ntcham was awful though that pass to KT was sexual. Sinky and Griff have been class. Boyata is a beast and has been excellent passing the ball. Broony superb. Rogic off the boil & Paddy a bit isolated.

    They will press and we have the threat to punish them. Can't remember an away CL game where we had this much possession.

    1-0 away from home in the Champions League. What a feeling.

    I think it's clear that Brendan has instructed the team to play carefully and not push forward too quickly. We'll create another chance in the second half, just need to hope we put it away.

    Brown Jozo and Boyata have been immense.

    Get in..

    Boyata has been immense. What a difference with a quality centre back back in..

    KT. Excellent. Our best attacking outlet and his tackling. Ooft..

    Broony. Been doing the job of 2 men most of that half. Class..

    Sinclair. Been a real threat..

    Slated Ntcham as let's be honest, he was brutal. Missing tackles. Letting guy's casually run off him. Horrible passing. Not in it, and then......sublime pass and move..

    They have to come out now. Forrest and Armstrong, possibly McGregor even second half for a bit more pace..

    Would get Roberts off. Lost count the amount of times he has lost the ball .. again. Forrest suits big games like this much better.

    These guys are there for the taking tonight. We're 1-0 up and haven't played anywhere near to our best.

    I still think we should consider bringing on Armstrong for Ntcham at half time or shortly afterwards. Roberts has been poor too, but I don't think we've done well enough finding him in attacking areas. He's picking the ball up in our own half more than I would like.

    45 mins away from a huge 3 points. And we've played well within ourselves.
