    You're right about up front but we finished the game with 4 wingers on the pitch and another having been subbed. We have the numbers in wide areas, just most of them are gash.

    I get that and totally agree, but the tactics today totally hampered the guys that started. We had enough quality out there to win that match.

    Wot we need to remember is ,the manager when he speaks is going on about amount of games and asking the players to keep producing 3 games a week and then consider the players we lost and never replaced summertime,then add a catalogue of injuries to key players and there has to be a big drop off ,he knows he's asking a lot from players he cant or wont drop , take certain players out and it makes us so much less of a certain thing ,boyata ,teirney ,lustig,forrest and mcgregor, throw christie in as well ,any 1 of those missing makes us much weaker ,we were missing 4 .

    We've been ruining side's with a 4-3-3. Fuckit, let's go a 3-1 * knows here..

    We've got an out of form left winger. Fuckit, let's stick him right wing back..

    We've got a slow midfielder, turned centre half. Fuckit, let's play him to the right almost as right back again..

    We had 1 striker playing. Fuckit, we didn't put 1 on the bench so let's stick a winger up top and get him off..

    We've * the formation here. Fuckit, let's wait till they score again and the game's done before changing it..

    Calm the * down bhoys ,cmon.

    Yes he * up today,yes the team players were a disgrace,yes Eddy just looks brutal since his move,Yes sinc still gets picked.

    As much as Rodgers has won 7 outta 9 trophies,it doesn't mean hes untouchable.....This season tbh has been pretty dissapointing so far.

    We haven't played for a major long spell well enough,seems to be in bits and bobs....The CL exit was * and i personally didn't want the EL even moreso now that we are dwindling in the League and are loosing players every week to injuries,The EL is just in the way now,regardless that it might just be 2 games.

    We were in a hard group,but qualified,and we had luck on the last day.....I personally didn't think we were impressive in that group tbh,for us to be a supposed CL team we looked out of our depth in some games.....and again Rodgers record in europe is dismal.

    Going ahead we need to stick to a winning formation,the players have to start showing up now in all games,and he has to get his tactics right now...no * about.

    Today was the big eye opener day for me,players like Eddy and Sinc better start playing or they can * off.....not appearing one week and not another,sick of it now.

    It's interesting that the poor performances of early season have crept back in, we all know why and judging by the post match interview from Rodgers "I know what my strongest 11 is" I think he now knows as well, brown and ntcham together ain't working. We don't get remotely the control of that midfield with them two in there.

    Hopefully he now knows to get back to McGregor, Christie, rogic when all fit. And if not, be looking to bring someone in that can help rotate when one is out.

    He held his hands up for the system today, another lesson hopefully learned.

    Although not many do rate Ralston, at least if we had stuck to a tried and tested formation with a flat back four, with Ralston starting, we may have been a bit more organised. Because the rest of the players on that pitch should be capable of bearing Hibs. No one was a complete new start etc.

    If he knows his best side and formation, then why oh why does he keep drastically * about with it?

    Ralston isn't great at all but would've been much better suited for today than Sinclair as wing back or Ajer drifting out there..

    Finances weren't why we lost today and we should have more than enough to dispatch of hibs, but it's more to do with a bigger problem look at the players we lost in the summer and bringing in fresh players and spending money gives you fresh impetus. now we only have 1 striker who's not even a striker more playing off a striker.

    sold the family silver again in dembele.

    Most teams sell the family silver. Hibs had to make do having sold the gold and the silver

    So with about half the season gone we find sevco top and ourselves in third. Not even 2nd. Third. Imagine how bad you'd have to be to be worse off than that heap of dross over at Snake mountain, yet that's where we are. Thing that gets me though is this form isn't new it's actually how we've been playing since about the same time last season. We put on a few good performances, usually against the better teams in the bigger games, then either do the bare minimum to beat the smaller teams or struggle to break them down at all. And on the few occasions where a team really gets stuck in such as Tynecastle, Easter road etc. we seem to have no answer and worse still look like we don't even want to be there. BR has been excellent overall since he came here but this form has been allowed to drift on for too long and the longer it goes the more likely it will seem that he doesn't have the answers.

    Rodgers problem today he tried to shoe horn players into the side that he thought were better and came up with a system he thought would work. Having 4 players out, playing players out of position with an unfamiliar formation seldom works, especially when we have only won 3 away games and came up against a Hibs team that have only lost once at home in 2018. It is by no coincidence we went on a good run without Brown and Nchamp, they cannot play together in the same midfield. We had a winning formation, yes players were injured or rested before they get injured, but surely you stick to your formation and brings players in that can play and know that formation? Yes Brown was always going to come in with no Christie but that left us with no urgency going forward from midfield with Nchamp alongside him. Forest was wasted in the middle, when he went out wide he was more productive. As for Eddy, never seen a striker so static in the penalty area, but he also looked lost at times, prob didn't understand the formation like most of us!!! Rodgers has been magnificent but sometimes I think he gets blinded by his own success.

    Will always jump to bredans defence, being one of the best Celtic managers in my life time but this made me laugh to be honest
