    Attacking them is the best way. Theyve slowed down with age now. Still a top team but you can say with confidence they wont win the champions league this year. It looks like rebuilding time and there cycle at the tops over. Perfect time to sneak a cheaky draw.

    Still think we'll be beat in Munich but I see no reason for us not to do be able to do what rostov did to them last year when we get them at parkhead

    Ribery out for at least 3 months, bit of a boost for us.

    You could be right Chris.
    I am starting to believe we could beat Bayern home and away now.
    That 3-0 scudding of Anderlecht in Belgium will have sent shockwaves throughout Europe.

    Unfortunately your right it didnt all pundits did was pull out stats saying it wasn't that big a deal we will need to take a big scalp to get recognition

    Not really understanding the big upsurge in confidence.. rather than talk about beating them Home & Away (ffs, can't believe im actually typing this) i will be delighted if we can get a draw in any of these games.

    We still have to play PSG away and that could get messy.. very messy. I think we have goals in our team but we have had some rotten luck with injuries and our defence is always a worry

    I actually think we could nick a draw away to Bayern but it will require a great team performance

    If we get a point against Bayern that would be a huge achievement.
    They are still a top class team.
    Can't see us getting anything over there but could see us nicking a point at home.

    See this is a higher quality than your recent efforts, you don't need to worry about facing the music in the Gold Room now.. in with the plebs suits you fine! A lenient punishment in the end!

    Much would Celtic benefit financially if we do make the last 32 of Europa?

    Always the same low energy, low confidence by a lot of our fans on the eve of a big European game. It serves no purpose having low esteem of ourselves going into these games.We had the same mood going into the Anderlecht game away with many questioning whether we could even get a draw, we won 3-0 remember. Bayern are in turmoil just now, ageing team, rock bottom, having just sacked their manager, just like Anderlecht were. There is no reason in this world why we can't beat them when they are down in the dumps.We will be fresh as a daisy after the International break with a full of compliment of players to select from again, and I for one want to see Ralston back in at right back for his strength and energy in this vital position.

    You write stuff (in your case, *), people read, people respond..

    That is the whole point of this place, correct me if I'm wrong?

    Nice swerve though doc..
