    Time to hand over the armband to McGeagor. Christie could have played in midfield, Klyimala up top.

    Lets be honest here. In Europe we are now a joke. Brown can swan around the Scottish league but in Europe you can see our midfield ain't good enough. I could do a job in the middle for us when in playing in Scotland. How far have we fallen in recent years in Europe. Celtic Park no longer feared for any team. Sad to see it

    would want to see going forward a 3-5-2 with a new CB , Turnbull , or even more so a 4-3-3 with Cm's pushing up with Calmac sitting

    Christie
    McGregor
    Turnbull/Nctham

    He doesn't pick himself, so I don't blame him. Yes, he's slowing, you can see it in his face as well, he looks knackered after every run. This is all on Lennon

    Hate to say it, but Broon is slowing us down. When in buildup play his passing isn't fast or precise enough and he lacks creativity.

    He was absolutely, * horrendous tonight.

    I absolutely love the guy, he is a club legend, but he is completely done as a player. Teams are targeting him every game, pressing the life out of him and it works everytime.

    I think hes one of the major threats to 10 in a row. He has to used properly during the season which doesnt mean every game.

    Just doesn’t offer much now, Lenny not dropping him is our biggest danger.

    This is all on Neil Lennon. He picks the team. Broony is a legend and that will never be contested but he needs to take a back seat.

    Neil Lennon picking him and not trying someone else can be the biggest threat for the 10IAR and it shows . He needs to get creative or at the very least, use common sense.

    Balls must be shown and he must be dropped. Quite simple.

    How he finished that game is beyond me. Ajeti/Klimala for Brown was the obvious sub from about 5 mins in

    He was absolutely, positively, not better than McGregor tonight. Wise up.

    Surely Brown himself knows he is done? He has to step in, we will lose the league if hes still first choice.

    He is done. Christie needs to be back there with his energy.

    The thing is while Lennon is at the club Brown will start every game if fit.

    Lennon’s tactics have not only embarrassed the club tonight but If he continues down this path he will * the 10.

    changes need made but Brown will never be dropped.

    We'll firmly agree to disagree. McGregor has been really poor since the beginning of the season. Hard to believe yes, but got to call it. Tonight Brown was in the game more. Nothing special but certainly did the better of the 2!

    Brown was absolutely not in the game more, nor was he better than McGregor. McGregor’s passing was excellent tonight, Broony’s wasn’t and he plays far more simple passed. That’s before we even get into their respective mobility.

    Mate you are way off. Seriously, way off.

    Brown played tonight like a guy that will sit in the dressing room afterwards and it’ll be like an epiphany to him. He’s not got the physical ability to play at European level anymore and it showed.
