    You obviously have been brainwashed into thinking the odd goal or nice touch makes these guys the future ?!! If these guys are our future then i dont know what to say , but if you honestly think that then fine , hope youre right but i wont be holding my breath !!

    Was poor Today, but we have players that are consistently poor and don't get the * he does. He'll bounce back, just wasn't his day.

    I hear you kdawg, but these guys are average players who are going to have as many bad games as they do good ones, especially when we play in europe !! We have to get a better class player if we want to have a go in europe , if fans are happy with just domestic success then these players might and i mean might suffice !! Serious question if cmg , hendo , armstrong , allan etc were put on the transfer market where do you think they would end up ?!!

    Agree with Armstrong but this is knee * over McGreggor.

    Also no idea why you would put Henderson in there at 20 years old and just breaking through, having excelled on loan and shown enough for us so far.

    Nice name. :50:

    I agree with everything you have wrote, but we don't have a better class of player, our best player is on loan from Man City. Tonight Bitton played great, but he's spent the last few months hiding in important games, McGregor, as average as he is has played out his skin for us in big games and apart from tonight, he never usually hides. To be honest with ye, this group of players have me changing my mind week to week, Armstrong looked brilliant a couple of weeks back, tonight he was awful. We need a gut-out, but until then I'd prefer a player who is "average" but gives his all over a player who is talented but can't be bothered. In Paddy and Tierney we have both; heart and talent, shame all our players aren't like them.

    I agree with paddy and tierney m8 , and also about giving 100% but honestly hope we can get somebody with a little dig who can spot a pass and chip in with the odd goal !! Not asking for much i know but surely its the least we should expect from a celtic player , right now i dont see it in any of our mfers hope im wrong though !!

    McGregor has a goal in him and has been one of our most consistent players the past 6 months, even if many have failed to notice it.

    One poor game doesn't change that. Others will go well before him, excellent squad player to have now and is quite rightly starting at this moment in time.

    One bad game doesn't make the lad a bad player. I've got high hopes for him playing in a deeper midfield role. Very gifted natural ball control and has end product.

    He has had far, far more than "one bad game". Be honest, no other team in their right minds would play this guy in a Champions League game. Only us.

    Don't talk absolute *. He has not been some revelation from new year, and he has had PLENTY more than one bad game. Complete revisionism.

    Agree when he plays out wide mate,but think in the middle of the park he is one of our better players imo

    First time I've seen him play poorly in midfield. I'm not a fan of him up front.

    I'm not even close to seeing it. I wouldn't have him as one of our 20 best current players. It's as if people are taking the * or something, I don't think I'm being harsh at all, I really just don't see, in any way, what some others seem to. He's a Jamie Hammill/Mark Kerr/Ryan Stevenson level of player all day long for me.
