    As others have said he's probably more interested in seeing what the fringe players can do than he is in winning the game. Also resting the better players and not being willing to risk them. He now knows for certain where he is with strength and depth. A lot of them will get punted I'm sure because they're simply not good enough. I'm not worried in the slightest by this result. I get that folks will be mad paying to go and watch that mince.

    Can't imagine he won't have the team motivated for the cup final and plenty of Celtic sides have dropped off after a league win but we've not had a good 90 mins for ages and it would be nice to actually see us play well again before the season ends.

    It's worrying. Is it just pre season type doesn't give a fuvk about results games?

    Or is the writing on the wall he'* 3rd season down turn a few months early. Has he ever had a good 3rd season previously?

    CCV - just vital to this team.

    Have to hope he is back with some pre-season to be ready to go.

    without him, utterly * rudderless at the back.

    Well if he has what's the problem? I think we should all be told. Tbh being a manager in Scotland will have been a real eye opener for him. There's something really nasty about the whole mindset around football in this country.

    It’s painful without him.

    also important to note RB as well.

    2 guys out and it’s been….frankly awful.

    Be interesting to hear what Ange has to say after tonight's debacle. As I said in the match thread the biggest mistake of all tonight would be to just dismiss it, this is NOT a one-off and those players need a serious wake-up.

    Too many changes again. He said in post match interview last week that he made too many changes. One game later, he does it again.

    Should have hooked Maeda. A blind man could see he was getting a red ffs.

    Really disappointed in Ange tonight.

    I’ve never seen a team completely chuck it for a month and then turn up for a one off game so the cup final could get interesting

    He's one step ahead of everyone including you and I. He's delivered all that's been asked this season now relax and let him deliver the treble and freshen up the team for next season. Relax.

    Didn't see anything coming from him on the sidelines. Hands in his pockets and giving off the same 'whatever' attitude that's being reflected in the teams performance.

    Love the guy but the drop off since securing the league is bordering on unprofessional and leaves a wee bit of a bad taste.

    I can't imagine he's happy with what he's seeing tho and I can see another decent sized squad overhaul this summer.

    I think it’s all to do with Anges son taking Blockers son place in the football team


    Blocky has since taken issue with Ange

    Also Ange knocked back blockers when he was getting a pool installed


    Obviously bad blood there

    He isn't infallible. The recruitment this year has been woeful, only one signing has come in and made an instant impact and that was after because our LB left. Oh looks like he will deliver and Iwata could but Yuki, Bernabei, Seigrist and Abildegaard have been poor. We were rolled over in Europe too, we should have beaten Shaktar.
