    tactic for 2nd half: trying to hold the 2:0 and defend with every man or take some risk with the realistic danger to concede even more goals?

    There's a fear in tackling them in and around the box because even though they are so good they go down really easily

    Bitton is a severe defensive handicap

    Awful penalty from Dembele. Some of the defending could be better but others times Barça just can't be stopped.

    No we might need to keep the goal difference down to get 3rd spot.

    Barca are good yeh but celtic haven't turned up..not closing down fast enough..Tierney looks petrified everything he gets the ball the new boy doesn't know what day Ito is and as for Bitton not sure if it's laziness or he just doesn't have a clue how to defend properly so disappointed with the performance

    Enrique, just take the foot off the gas mate. 2-0, you've won it. No need for more goals.

    That second goal, Messi is the only player I've seen who can make one twos in spaces that tight, it makes the defence look all over the place but he's done it to even the best teams in the world. It's tiki taka at it's best, 19 passes ffs.

    Still though, we score the next goal and we're right back in it!

    Run up pick a spot or smash it , see this stalled run up and a game effort at the keeper . You have one chance against barca , smash it

    Bad penalty. But at least I won't be tempted to get a Dembele tattoo on my arm yet. (Yet)

    I don't think we are playing so bad - they are just a million miles ahead

    Packie Bonner used to stand one step either side of middle and basically make up the strikers mind.

    He would then be on his bike as soon as he made his run up. :smiley-laughing002:
