[Matchday] Celtic vs Dundee Utd - Wed 30th Dec - 15:00

Best 45 mins of our season.

High intensity, movement, options for the passer, 2 cracking goals.

Most impressed though with our commitment to win the ball high when out of possession. We've not given United a second on the ball and won it back in danger areas on a few occasions now, one of which lead to Turnbull's goal.

Can't ask for much more than that. Keep it up

 

He is deceptively quick tbf, like big Sammy. Two big beautiful * who are able to stride up the pitch in no time.

 

We all said it too,I know Turnbull was out with international footy and isolating but he hardly got any minutes either side.

 

It's absolutely infuriating man, everyone and their dug was asking for it literally months before it happened. I know fans always have opinions and always think they know better but it was so obvious what was missing and it * me right off. I obviously enjoy when we score and win but just end up being annoyed because it took him so long to see this and the league is now an enormous challenge, when it arguably needn't have been.

They must have just miraculously became fit enough to play overnight.

 

Excellent first half, again Soro and Turnbull proving their worth. Calmac is having another superb game, playing more like himself in his more natural position, no Brown to babysit. Although they havent score the hold up play and movement from Griff and Eddy has been excellent against a defence of 5 and 3, keeping their CBs busy allowing space for the midfield to move into.

 

Great first half, should be 3! Someone’s due a tanking hopefully we can get another couple next half. To often after we score 2 we seem to take our foot of the gas, on Saturday we done that even though we did manage another l.

 

A great first half but would like to see Tam on for Christie .

 

Excellent first half..

Playing and pressing high up. Forcing mistakes and creating plenty..

The amount of joy Soro and Turnbull give me when watching them man. That Turnbull flick before his goal..

Soro showing he can no only score but trying the penetrating passes over the top also..

Much more like us..

Get another and get the big hitters off for the Huns. Ajer. Turnbull. Soro etc etc..

Want to see Barkas getting a clean sheet here..

Can see the confidence in this 11 but my only wee nit-pick is Christie doesn't suit this formation. The only one really for me that looks out of sorts here..

 

All ifs n buts but Soro in at Easter road n pittodrie with Turnbull And at home v St Johnstone instead of brown and elyounoussi we would have picked up 9 points instead of 3

 

If only we had Soro and Turnbull available at any point before December.

 

My concern is not the goalkeeping issue but Julien. His positioning is poor at times and some poor passes whilst not under any pressure. When Frimpong is caught out of position he is caught in two minds what to do, cover or stay. He has been lucky we havent had a better forward up against him, if we concede it will come from him.

 

Several packy

 

Must have been 30/35 yards.

 

Couldn’t have been far off 25?

edit^ maybe more right enough as @Keano88 says

 

Perfect game for Tams skills.

 

Much more like the kind of performance we should expect against these sort of teams.

 

Massive improvement on what we were watching a few weeks ago. A solid second half will see us heading to their place with a bit of confidence.

 

When Ajer strides forward they * themselves and it’s like the parting of the Red Sea .
