    I really dont know what to feel after this game. I think we are a better team but they looked a lot sharper in the first 20 mins due to being well into a league campaign. They defended very well and looked dangerous on the counter. I think we will try a different approach in the return game (hoping) and possibly go for it witha 433 formation?. Am I right in saying if we are beaten over the two legs we go into the europa leage? Hail Hail.

    To be honest I dont think we played that bad, any other night we would have scored two or three. Big fortune's miss was a shocker but it happens to the best strikers so no point in slating him.

    On to Moscow and strangely going into an away game I feel we have the ability to * an away goal.

    Heard Keevans say tonight fitness has nothing to do with the result, for about twenty minutes in the second half we fell out of it before getting the second wind and pressing on near the end....so if we were fitter we would have demolished that mob tonight.

    I had a bad feeling about this game. They are way ahead of us in fitness terms but lets not get into excuses. This is obviously a bad thing. But it might be just the thing we need to push us to get that elusive away win. I think we can do it in Moscow because we know all about them now and we will be more match sharp next week.

    How many matches do we play before the away match?

    One goal and we are back in the driving seat, certainly no reason to implode!

    Thought we were unlucky to lose tonight.
    Think Mogga will prepare well for return leg.
    If all else fails, Europa league plus SPL domination.
    Things can only get better !!!:86:

    We were unlucky with the result considering the performance but were not out yet.

    It does just show how a team through there season compares to one which isnt. As long as we grab an early goal first away from home thats the only way i can see us qualify from this tie.

    But to be honest to qualify to the europa league might not be a bad route for Celtic to play in as our co officient will improve and i believe we could go far in the competition. Its maybe a good route for Mowbray to start his european campaign! I only feel our worst point is that our finances might not be great if we dont get through this tie!

    I thought we have played better (at times during the game) than I saw most of last year. Fortune and Sammy both had clear chances and should have scored. On another night I think we get atleast 2.

    It was the absolutely worst thing to give up the early one. If we could have played 0-0 a while longer I think there would have been more chances. Not going to get on Fortune too bad, but in the future he has to take those chances.

    I still think we can get a result, Dynamo played well in defense and on the break but I mean come on, they arent * Barca or Man Utd, we can do it.

    There is no doubt in my mind if both teams were 100% fit and on form that we are the better team. So that tells me that the main reason for tonight's jobbies was that we haven't had enough time to get fit and gel as a team yet. Call me churlish but I'm not going to give Dinamo a lot of credit because I don't think they're that great. If we played them again in 3 months time the scoreline would not be the same as it was tonight.
