[Official TC Thread] Celtic v Anderlecht: Tues 05/12/17, 19:45. Bt Sport ESPN

It’s a couple of months away, and we have a transfer window to strengthen our squad.

 

Job done.

Can't believe we started with Armstrong ahead of Ntcham.

Europa here we come

 

We’ll get arsenal and they’ll pump us at home.

 

He goes to plenty mate, and travels a fair * distance too

 

So good to still be in Europe after christmas, Anderlecht are no pushovers, to finish ahead of them is a highly commendable achievement.

 

A January window is not enough. Anyway, don't be expecting any significant investment..

 

How did we beat them 3-0 away man!

 

We should; we finished 3rd in our group.

 

Thought we were good second half but the first was nowhere near good enough.

Armstrong, Sinclair, Boyata, Dembele not good enough. Thank * for Broony first half. Ntcham was incredible when he came on and we'll done to Brendan for recognising what was wrong and moving swiftly to fix it.

 

5 straight losses in the groups. * shocking

 

boo hoo !!!!!
yes we played *, but a team that was in the pot above us and should have beaten Bayern Munich only beat us with an o.g.
we're through and they aren't, that's all that matters.

 

They had a * manager at the time we beat them and were losing a lot of games.

 

You going to the Aberdeen game ?

 

That performance stems from the central defenders. None of them are comfortable in possession meaning our midfield's movement is written off who are under severe pressure every time they receive the ball. You can't compete properly until this gets sorted. Was blindingly obvious before a ball was kicked as well this season.

We were better off with Mulgrew and I'd risk Bitton before those two tonight particularly at home.

 

That is why me must and will put this right after Christmas with a nice collection of home wins.

 

Sutton is bang on the money.

 

Really annoyed we were content to draw or have a 1 0 defeat very poor no balls perfomance so predictable no excitment

 

Expected us to get three points but not away.. there's no doubt we played them at a really good time but hey that's football..

We've got lots to learn at this level no doubt.. and we need to pay for and add some quality..

 

True, we got lucky that night. But I’ll take it

 

Don't know whether to celebrate or cry. Better second half however we didn't really deserve to take anything from the game. We are through to Europa but let's not disguise things. That was another CL defeat at home, it's not good enough if we want to progress in the CL. It's still progression in Europe though but Brendan really needs to look at the centre backs issue in the January window, Boyata and Jozo over playing it at the back time and time again. They get away with it in the SPFL but not in Europe. We looked really nervous especially first half but our general play was well below how we can play. I can't remember a game where we had so many backward passes. Onwards and upwards.
