Ange Postecoglou

I get what you're saying, but he's not on he pitch. If the striker wrestles it off the penalty taker at hat moment what can he do. You're right though, it should have been clear who was taking it and that was that.

Regardless, still a complete sit show.

 

That made me chuckle.....

 

The points dropped, excluding huns game, have been completely inexcusable. Embarrassing

 

Made to look like a daft * again sadly.

 

For me we've just lost 7 really careless points already in the 2 Livi games and Dundee United at home. Important to try and stay patient with the team but we really can't afford many more of these.

 

Because he couldn't break down a 12 man defence ?

 

Unfortunately for him our two best players play on the other side of the world internationally and one has already played a full season and the other is injured. Both will need to be rested at times. We struggle without them . Still think he is doing a great job especially after only one window. Looking forward to who he signs in Jan. We are too reliant on Kyogo and Rogic at the moment.

 

Kyogo should start in the middle up top every game. He gets taken off if we're 3 or 4 up. It's up to GG to remove him on form...

 

Got a lot wrong today imo

 

Am as raging as the rest of you but I honestly don't put much blame onto Ange myself. I don't think Kyogo instead of GG would have made much difference as there was no space whatsoever. GG is a powerful big * and he got bossed so Kyogo would have been ragdolled imo.

The rest of the team, as poor as they were in terms of creating clear cut chances, again I don't think personnel changes would have made it any easier. We played ok (just ok) it is just an unbelievably * defensive team we're up against.

The problem today was not tactics, it was purely down to an anti football non football team who it's near impossible to break down. You could tell Ange was fizzing g with them in his Celtic TV interview there.

Just a * horrific day which we should still have won if not for that big * * bag Giakoumakis. Blame for the dropped points lies square at his feet in my view. * *.

 

No because he squandered the chance to go top against a team that has a fraction of the resources he has at his disposal. Chose to start the game without Kyogo, get the game won then take him off if you like but play your best players. I wouldn't let Bitton clean the other players boots.

 

Absolutely.

We need serious investment in January.

I've said since the window shut our squad is too thin and too lacking in quality.

That remains the case.

It's frightening how poor we are in MF. The most important area of the team and the three first team picks McGregor, Rogic and Turnbull - the latter two have ongoing fitness/recurring injury problems.

Absolute madness.

 

40 million?

 

Postecoglou just said it was his decision to make Giakoumakis the designated penalty-taker. Said the only reason Juranovic took the last one was because Giakoumakis wasn't on the pitch. Weird because I'm certain I saw Juranovic arguing with Giakoumakis seconds before he stepped up. Smells to me of a manager just protecting his player.

 

Did he say anything about that * taking the penalty?

 

We're not settled and good enough to make so many changes..

Tough one to take but we move on..

Still a long long way to go..

 

Kyogo has played more games than anyone this here. He will need to be rested at times and there is never going to be a good time for it.

Imagine the meltdown on here if he got injured after not being rested at all.

The big man will make mistakes. * it move on. Huns are *, huns are skint. We will have a good Jan window.

Lot of games left to play.

 

McGregor said it was decided before that if Giakoumakis was on the park he would take the pen.

 

Because he has 1 point from 6 ... against Livingston. Pathetic.

 

Got it badly wrong today.

 

Who plays instead of Bitton ? We're badly lacking in squad depth.
