    In no way looking into that as anything other than a title winning team visiting a desperate to appease their fans team.

    We had enough chances to alter that result, but were lacking in almost every department.

    Their highlight of the season is beating us in a nothing game, whereas we have a cup final to look forward to and a record to complete.

    The levels between the clubs right now are so different, it is embarrassing for them.

    Right now, they are closer to a wee club than serious contenders.

    A few hours have passed and I've simmered down but that was one of the most pathetic performances I've seen at their pit in decades.

    A few were given the opportunity to stake their claim for a place and ended up embarrassing themselves and the jersey.

    Bernabei & Kobayashi have no future at Celtic. Abada, O"Riley & Starfelt should be moved on to the highest bidder IMO

    Mate it was pretty much Celtic B against rangers, in basically a friendly calm down.

    I'm calm.

    For me that was Ange doing the litmus test for the Champions League. We were playing against an atrocious hun side and some were chasing shadows, that should be all the evidence Ange needs to be "agile in the market" as he's previously stated.

    We were utter * today but ive seen a cracking Martin O'Neil side hammered 5-1 in a more meaningful game by their dead club before we went onto a treble and dominating Scottish football the following years.

    As long as we keep winning titles and cups they can have their wee end of season dead rubber bragging rights.

    Importantly for me though, I do think the game shows where we need to improve.

    You seen it time and time again 2 of they * attacking the empty space in behind our full backs, we didn't even run that much either all at walking pace,
    getting beat is one thing and I can accept that but the way we played today is unacceptable whether the league is won or not

    Play like that in the group stage and we're gonna get bent over. Defence has been dodgy for years and we really need another striker. We miss way too many chances and we'll be in serious trouble if Kyogo gets injured.

    Starfelt has proven that beside CCV he is a solid centre half. If you swap him with CCV today the result doesn’t change.

    That hun team that beat Martin O'Neils team was actually decent, I get what you are saying but that orc team that bossed us today are a pish, managed by a used car salesman.

    I would say that most average CBs could look better alongside CCV, he's that good.

    Starfelt is an average CB IMO - not terrible but also not terrific, we can do better

    100% correct to have started that team today. The management would have learned a lot about the likes of yuki bernabei oh and maybe even O'Riley and hart too.. only mistake I think was not starting iwata

    I’d say both him and CCV compliment each other pretty well to be honest. Ralston, Bernabei and Kobayashi were * garbage, and all three had something to prove. Likewise with Abada who was anonymous as well. I can’t think of any player who got pass marks today if truth be told, but a lot get passes as they have proven many times before they can be relied upon. Some were given chances to show they deserved a place in the team, and none of them showed anything.

    We've gone there and not played arguably our 3 best players this year 2 of them through choice as they were on the bench and also no Maeda who tends to make a difference in these games as well.

    It was a glorified friendly and rightly or wrongly we treated it as such
