[Matchday] Celtic v St. Johnstone (15:00 GMT - 18/02/18) Celtic TV

People saying Thursday game is far more important! Won’t be saying that come 19th May if we lose the league by 1 point in a worst case scenario!

 

You've just took that too far.

 

Highlights and reaction

 

Highlights * * crow was bad enough live without highlights!

 

We will win the league by 15+ points . Rogic, Roberts , Armstrong , Compper, Griffiths all to come back in .

 

You can enjoy a great game over and over now.

 

Typical European hangover performance. It's either risk the next leg with injuries and fatigue and play the same team, or risk this game and play youngsters. We should have won it but we missed the big players. Time for Dembele to start the next 4 games.

 

He won’t stay fit long enough

 

Not a chance will it be double figures this season mate be lucky to be any more than 8 tbh.

All 3 teams in top 3 are inconsistent as *! Aberdeen and Sevco max winning run currently 4 games and us 3 games at any point in season!

All with trips to each other aswell as hibs and hearts dropped point central could be lowest ever tally this season to win a title

 

Someone gee @Blochairnbhoy a valium before he hyperventilates.

 

Am fine regi, come to expect inconsistency in celtic this season just one of those things

 

But if you think this is good to watch or is acceptable domestically then send me some of that gear your taking @RegiBlinker

 

It certainly was turgid in parts but we did still create enough chances to win that game.

With the likes of Griffiths, Roberts, Rogic and Armstrong to come back I'm sure we'll kick on in the coming weeks.

 

Not acceptable for me i want dounle figures and another treble to make up for some of the * we have seen this season its the only way i would get over half of the * games we have had to deal with

Maybe sounds a bit spoilt but * it a wouldnt even say this season has had half the enjoyment as last and we are still in 2 comps compared to last season and on our way to a treble

 

Thought it was a huge mistake bringing so many players in to the team who have barely kicked a ball for months all at the one time. Think Rogic could have could have came on as a sub for instance so we had at least a spine of players that knew what they were doing.

 

Probably because everything was new and last season and led to setting unrealistic expectations of the players and team this season. We've been involved in five separate competitions, six if you count the qualifiers as a stand alone competition and we have a squad full of international players. Add to that we barely get a break over the summer or a free midweek from August onward I think we're doing pretty well.

 

I think games after split will be crucial imo with 33 points available I can see

Celtic dropping 10-15 points
Rangers dropping 10 -12 points
Aberdeen dropping 15+ points

 

Most successful teams (across all sports) are generally very consistent in team selection, which allows all participating players to develop cohesion and a bigger collective understanding.

This season the team has constantly been changed (for various reasons) and the disjointed performances reflect that.

Similar to England vs Iceland, it's obvious who had the better individuals, but a lack of collective cohesion was always going to make 3 points difficult today.

 

15 dropped really, us losing 5 of the last 11 games or losing 3 and drawing 3 of the XI? thats a stretch.

 

I don’t think so mate tbh I can easily see us dropping points at hearts, hibs, Aberdeen, Rangers and kilmarnock
