    We play against Young Boys the way we've been playing recently, we will lose. Play that way against Villa, it will be worse than Dortmund.

    You're better off avoiding this place when a game goes against us, there's obviously justified criticism but far too many go OTT.

    You'd think we were only 4 points clear after that.

    Rogic was a smashing player but fast movement and rogic definitely don’t go together, dropped 9 points so far out of 69, it’s gonna happen now and again over a 38 league game season, getting the equaliser at the end at no losing kinda softened the blow for me

    It's bonkers. Criticism is fine but once again some of the reactions are wild, as if we have a * given right to win every game we play. It's as if some folk can't grasp that there's an opposing team on the pitch doing everything they can to stop you winning. With our team and finances we should win the vast majority of games against teams like Dundee... and we do!!! :56:

    This thread is laughable. Years of unparalleled success in the league, a trophy already in the bank, an extended run in the Champions League likely and it's not enough? If we can't accept a very occasional loss or defeat domestically then I don't know will satisfy us.

    He's unique, we won't find many if any players like him

    100 percent the team is lacking that desire, it's almost like post title win performances .

    I think to be a pure * walk out in 18th minute and come back in on the 88th minute . Back to work in the morning. You never know the Dandies might turn up for the first time in weeks at Ibrox tomorrow night

    These results happen, Dundee were immense TBF . Not going to be overly critical, but a few players will be disappointed with their performances

    But his ability to cut teams open is what we need..we don't have any of the midfield able to see the gaps he did or score the goals he did..

    Totally! These things happen, players get tired, injured, bad form… but we are 13pts ahead. So its probably a mental thing as well. Some probably feel comfortable enough to just take the foot of the gas. But some on here react as we are getting relegated soon.

    We are absolutely crying out for a Tom Rogic type who can bang one in on the half turn in and around the box and generally create magic .

    One of my favourite players ever.

    It was poor tonight and tbh our away form has been concerning for a while. However could you imagine how quickly Celtic Park would empty if we were in the EPL?

    People lose their * * when we drop the odd point. I honestly don't understand it.

    Brendan saying exactly what we are all saying... too many sideways, backwards passing and not aggressive enough from us.

    For me that's on the midfield that just isn't aggressive enough going forward or infront of goal.

    Got away with one.

    Dundee deserved 3 points on that 2nd half alone. They were immense. We couldn't breathe.

    Its again highlighted some issues in our squad though. Not clinical enough, need more in attack and the midfield is weak. Defensively as well Trusty will need to be more aggressive. Aggression the word of the night for me...just too passive in defence and attack.

    I thjnk the now 16 point lead has added a touch of complacency to some players performances and Rodgers will undoubtedly need to keep an eye.

    I've been saying for years that we need to sign a few big, tall athletic types as we are constantly being out muscled both in Europe and here in Scotland. We have a team full of midgets and have struggled to cope with crosses and high balls punted up the park for a while now as well as a lack of energy in midfield. Sort that out and we will improve greatly

    All very true but we were bullied by Dundee in that second-half.

    It's true. This is why a lot of our fans just can't get to grips with the Champions League....
    Too used to inferior opposition and us coasting through games domestically..

    In the Champions League we play good teams with good players that are set up to try and beat us. That is they're purpose on the park and they are a lot better at it than Kilmarnock or Motherwell....When things don't go exactly to plan (like the Leipzig game when they did) the same fans are too quick to jump on us with a long list of complaints...it's like they don't understand that we are playing top level opposition

    For me it's less the dropping of points than the performance itself. If we'd played them off the park and they had scored a late equaliser it's just one of those things, frustrating but it happens. But when you have CL games coming up and players like Idah and Trusty look like they have never seen a football before, never mind played with one, it gets a bit concerning.
