    midfield was great today great balance in the middle but if we sign huszti i think mcgeady will go right which i think could be good because it will save him cutting in and give us more crosses in box with natural width and huszti on left with natural left foot.

    Hinkle is mince - can't head a ball,has no positional sense, can't tackle and when going forward he can't cross a ball. Not bad for a German international!

    All of them.
    It was the strikers not getting on the end off Mcgeadys crosses tbh, we could have scored 5 or 6.

    Thought I'd bump this to say - what a player Marc Crosas is going to be. His passing on a pitch you wouldn't even see in * football tonight was outstanding. Popped up all over the place, never scared to tackle and his wee flicks always reach their intended target. Good enough for Barca if he continues improving at this rate? Regrettably so.

    Naka as well tonight, looked dangerous every time he got on the ball and was up for it for the duration.

    Wasn't hugely impressed with Crosas tonight, thought Naka was excellent, Brown okay and McGeady, well i won't blame him for not playing well on that pitch.

    Robson had a positive effect when he came on.

    Much the same as me mate. Although McGeady has to learn to adapt to different situations he can't just be a passenger if the pitch does not suit him,

    To be honest our best passer & playemaker is still Naka, he came into the middle a lot tonight & played good balls, we will definetley miss him in our current squad.

    Crosas is the bawbag of hairyness & will be a legend (if we kep him) but he's not really used to * pitches like the Scottish National Stadium!

    Weren't impressed with Crosas, did you see the passing the guy is capable of? He was pinging 50 yarders cross field on to the toe of the winger on numerous occasions.

    It was between him and Naka for the MOTM for me.

    I hope Crosas and Brown will headline our centre midfield for seasons to come...I am sure they will both develop into great players and form a strong partnership in Celtic's middle

    Don't recall him doing that very often tbh. Plus he missed controlled the ball a few times and gave it away. He wasn't bad, just not great imo.
