Neil Lennon

still get lennon to *. doesnt make a blind bit of difference . and that * tory board.HH

 

edouard especially. been crap and not interested. hes off in january.HH

 

I have no confidence in him to make the right decisions.

Scott Brown's Celtic career should be over, let him go off and do his coaching badges. He might be good to have around the dressing room but his playing days are finished, or at least limited to sub appearances when guys like Soro, Turnbull and Henderson need a rest.

We now need a settled shape and system. Is it 4231 or 433 or 352?

I'm still very sceptical about our league chances under him.

We must win all 3 remaining games against the Klan.

 

I disagree. Even though he's 'over' his injury, it's only right that he was blended into the team as he fully comes to what it's like at a bigger club. Was a big fan of going back for him as soon as he was fit, but squandering him when he needed a little time to fit in and acclimatise to our more stringent setup made sense. The covid thing was just a further delay. More time yes, just throwing him in, no!

Really hope he's going to be our new powerhouse in midfield going on. Deserved the goal, and to stay in the team now. Let so so called '1st team's colleagues sub for him, and hopefully some of their arrogance will be knocked outta them. Same as Soro

 

Canny wait to see how he fits Turnbull and Soro in alongside Christie Ntcham and Brown.

 

Every game until the old firm is a cup final for Lenny! I've accepted that he's here to stay until January against the will of the supporters. But I accept it, and I'm prepared to back him on a game by game basis until that old firm - the board have chosen to live and die on that sword. Huns haven't lost a game all season. As it stands we're chasing the title. Go out and prove us all wrong Lenny particularly the fans outside Parkhead on Sunday.

I also hope he gives John Kennedy a slap in the face and tells the * to cheer up. It looks like they can't stand each other. Kennedy is not fit to lace Neil Lennon's boots.

 

A good win, that gives us a wee bit of respite from the aftermath we've been dealing with after games recently. Glad Lennon stuck to his word and made the changes required for the start of the game. Also a bit of pressure off the players and management.

However, this win has raised some other issues. Why haven't Soro, Turnbull and Klimala been given more time than they have?! Watching Soro in CM was as refreshing as an ice cold pint on a gorgeous summers day, such as we have become accustomed to Brown's turgid, tired negative game. The pressing, passing, especially forward passing and energy all there and what this team needs.

Turnbull, similar. His work rate. Ball control and eye for pass all as refreshing. Far better than Christies shoot on sight policy and dire set pieces. Klimala, definitely a diamond in the rough but again similar to Soro and Turnbull, the effort and desire is there. Would definitely benefit with Griff beside him. We cannot use the pish excuse that players aren't fit, clearly they are and are busting for a proper chance.

Positives are there tonight, question now is, is Lennon aware and brave enough to carry on this. The tried and tested players aren't doing it and not interested or in Brooneys case not able any more. If we had a proper modern coach, capable of progressing players, Turnbull and Soro could flourish. As much as a win pleases me, still major issues that Lennon can't solve but can certainly not humiliate the team or himself as bad as recent months.

Be brave Lenny.

 

He should make a statement to players and actually drop the. From match squad this team doesn’t need them to win that game

Although I agree with this, he also said we were breathtaking last week. So I’m not paying to much attention to what he’s says.
The acid test will come at the weekend if he has the conviction to play these same players that put in a performance tonight.
Also after hinting “we need to be careful...” with Soro and Turnbull etc, I’ll be very surprised if he doesn’t revert to type and play the old guard.
Christ, it took him ages to makes subs as per tonight.
Does he ever learn??

lennon really doesnt know when to shut his trap

 

Scott Brown would make a good assistant manager

 

yeah that worried me aswell didnt take long before his backsliding started to show its face again, the new guys should be fit, they should be training and playing bounce games regularly, but then again are they being trained properly ? they looked quite fit and lasted well into the game

that was a top side tonight we beat can anyone say that brown ntcham and christie would have had the same effect as soro turnbull and henderson, in my honest opinion had we went with that first 3 tonight wed have been gubbed tonight and it would have been another apathetic lethargic performance

cmon neil play the guys who want to play that have desire

 

I agree. The plus point tonight was the potential shown by Soro and Turnbull in particular - Klimala also worked his **** off but is definitely suited to a front 2. Hazard was impressive also - certainly didn't look like a step down from Bain or Barkas.

I honestly think some people are giving Lennon way too much credit tonight. How long have people been calling out that Brown is actually dragging the team down and you can tell after 10 minutes if Ntcham has turned up or not. Christie's work rate is admirable but he shoots from anywhere, wastes opportunities and his corners are ****.

Soro, Turnbull and Rogic should have had much more game time. However, Lennon has persisted with Brown, Ntcham and Christie. Let's face it - this was a "dead" match - there is no way he would have played this team if it hadn't been.

If Lennon hadn't been so pig headed this season, we wouldn't now be relying on the Huns to drop points.

I have always maintained that we have a better squad than Rangers - they are just better coached. I had high expectations of Turnbull (having watched him at Motherwell) and he certainly matched those - Soro was great and I hadn't anticipated that level of performance.

As ever, the 3 second half substitutions were made with 10 minutes and 3 minutes to go ??.

I'm heartened about the level of quality in our squad. To be honest, I'm even more certain that Lennon isn't the man to take us forward. As you say - a modern progressive coach could really make something of these players and that isn't Lennon and never has been.

 

What are you basing this on?

 

Basing it probably on the fact Lennon couldn’t start him week in week oot.
