    Very well put.

    Fact is that any manager worth their salt will not try to implement their attics to a team that isn't theirs. Anyone can tell you that. So * knows why he thinks he can. As for the tactics the less said the better.

    Some people on here are embarrassing as I've said all day if it was a Celtic minded person in charge they would be getting sympathy Ronny comes from abroad and gets dogs abuse :38:

    Another concern is he left his family in Norway.

    That couldn't be easy.

    Just doesn't seem like a long term commitment to me, just like all these loan signings.

    No commitment.

    Seems the jury on RD is split just now, I've been worried this would happen from the start tbh, of course at the start I was a 'negative *' just for having an opinion but as it turns out we are in the * now.

    Yes, the board are to blame for not spending. Yes, it was the board who gave the job to RD, but come on these players aren't as bad as people are saying, they clearly don't enjoy playing under this manager and his style. Why hasn't ronny gave up on all these * daft formations and said to himself, " I don't have the players for this and I'm getting * all from the board"? why should the fans suffer because his ideas about football? Pretty sure 4-4-2 is probably the most successful formation ever in football. Swallow your pride and do the sensible thing, set your formation to suit your players not the other way around, playing countless guys out of position is no way to set up a team!

    People also saying to give him time, hes had 10 games, 4 wins, 4 loses and 2 draws, pretty mediocre if all those games had been league games we would be sitting with 14 points. I know thats legia and maribor are better than spl teams but still we haven't shown we are better than spl teams the last two games.

    This is just my opinion, if you don't agree with it don't bother with all the abuse as everyones entitled to their opinion. Some people on here seem to consider their opinion as gospel and to have more value than other peoples, they forget that celtic are against oppression.

    Edit: I realise that 442 isn't perhaps the most successful formation in football globally, but in this country.

    An Honest Post mate - telling it like it is, tho some on here think they are "Better" fans than you if you have an opinion. like you all the signs are there for us to question the style,tactics,formations apart from the usual nonsense Lawwell spouts.

    I have been round the block a few times and I have posted this before Ronny will be on a North Sea ferry boat by Xmas! Every spl team will take points off of us by the end of this year and I think dermott will be on the blower to Lenny.

    Some of you are mad. Judging a manager on 4 League games, today was the first real poor result in the league if you can make allowances for Inverness. We have our captain out injured as well as arguably one of our best players in Forrest and 3 of his main summer signings haven't even kicked a ball yet, he needs time for to play new signings for a start never mind bed them in just yet!

    We will look a completely different team in a months time from now with the attacking options of Scepovic, Wakaso, Tonev, Mcgregor and Forrest at our disposal, the midfield will be tightened up the with return of Brown who will also bring that much needed leadership back to the team. Denayer is only going to get better and with him along side Van Dijk that is a fairly strong centre back pairing, Lustig on the right again solid and you've got a 9 million pound keeper in goals, Izzy is a bomb scare though.

    With a starting 11 that will look something like this

    Gordon, Izaguirre, Denayer, Van Dijk, Lustig, Johansen, Brown, Wakaso,Mcgregor, Forrest/Tonev and Scepovic

    Its looks a pretty good team, then you think you have Biton, Kayal, Griffiths, Stokes and Commons providing depth in the squad.

    We cant possibly be judging Deila just now when he hasnt even played his strongest 11 yet.

    Kiko 7 . You are spot on Hartley saw that Izzy hadn't any cover on the left so he put on a speedster on the wing and had another player backing up his winger . There isn't much a full back can do when he is faced with a two on one or if the ball is pushed past him and the winger is already on the run .

    You have seen enough of these 3 players then ??? Ive seen enough of Biton (could'nt get a game under Lennon..better players out there at thistle.
    Johanssen ( if were struggling offers nothing, scared to stick the boot in)

    Forrest (call the ambulance he's down again}

    Izaguirre ( not had a decent game since before his injury 2 seasons ago + forgets he's a defender)

    Is Deila on the usual one year rolling contract, without stipulations about qualifying for group stages or league placings?


    Just asking, like.

    Biton was a mainstay in Lennons side last year towards the end of the season before he got injured and that period is where we played the best football we had all season, he is only 22 years old he will go on to become a great player.

    thats one criticism that cant be said about Johansen, he is anything but scared to stick the boot in.

    No one has seen any of these players play for Celtic under Deila so why are we wanting rid of Deila when hes 3 main summer signings havent played a game yet?
