Daizen Maeda

That was an infuriating red, especially from our captain at the time. Yes we would all love to do that to Neymar, but it shafted us and was so needless.

 

Aye its mistaken identity only mate positive of it

 

McGregor was 100% correct in his post match comments. We need to have a different mind set in Europe. Challenges that are the norm in Scotland aren't accepted in Europe. On top of the ridiculous badgering of referees from scumbag opponents like Madrid, we simply have to be a lot more careful. I don't blame Maeda one bit as that is an every day tackle that would be a yellow in most cases but he gave Madrid an opportunity to turn the heat up on the ref, who wasn't helped by VAR and the still images. We can complain all we want but 3 red cards in the group stages tells its own story.

 

Unbelievable

 

you just know it's going to be more Forrest snooze fests!

 

We do have Yang...and Johnston.

 

Maeda and Abada both out leaves us very light on RW options. Yang is going to have to step up with some end product. Might even get a glimpse of that rare Australian bird species: the lesser spotted tilio.

 

Wait... this absolutely heinous, awful, reckless, thug like tackle that he could have crippled the Atletico player has ruled Daizen out for 6 weeks...

What a * joke by the way!

 

I had domestic competitions in mind, for which these 2 are good enough. And Vata deserves a shot. The CL is a foregone conclusion after the last game and we may as well play the academy boys.

 

*, that’s depressing

 

Brendan Rodgers has revealed that Daizen Maeda will be out of action for up to six weeks.





The Japan international was sent off during the 6-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid and the Parkhead boss confirmed that the injury occurred due to the challenge.

Maeda is now likely to miss the remaining two Champions League fixtures against Lazio and Feyenoord.

He also faces a race against time to be fit for the derby against Rangers on December 30.

Rodgers said: "Daizen will probably face up to six weeks out with the injury from the challenge so he has strained his knee ligament which comes when you knock a player on the foot.


If we went in stronger in the challenge then he probably would not have the injury so it was a clash of feet that just opened up his knee ligament.

"It is a shame for him and for us because he has been brilliant."

 

Massive chance for one of Yang or Tilio to stake their claim, but the winter break can't come soon enough.

 

Needs to be Palma and Yang on the wings. Maybe even a change of Kyogo and Oh up top on occasion.

 

Man, our luck this season has been horrible.

 

that's who I would rather go with obviously but will Rodgers? I'm not convinced

 

Hopefully back for the huns with a new set of Duracells fitted

 

Ffs..

Maybe we'll see Tillo make the squad..
