Celtic 0 v Aberdeen 0

You might suggest I'm showing signs of insanity by resorting to experimental personal again but I have an incredibly strong feeling this wee guy Bayo is a much bigger personality and he loves scoring so much he could be an important and inspiring player.

Then again, Mikey's previous few games he was scoring goals but as much as I love him too he doesn't have that impenetrable confidence Bayo appears to have, a player who appears to consider the opposition traffic cones waiting for a parked but rather than the bus itself.

Eddy is frustrating, we've seen him come on with 10 mintes to go and change a game. Wasn't he a late sub the 10 man game with a last minute classic? But he was culpable for a similar thing Mikey did too, they were over playing a few of their skillful turns. Even Toljan who is much better going forward than back skilfulling turned a player inside out and decided to go back to where he just used the skill to extracate himself from and leave the Sheep grazing. I think they were surprised at how lucky they were getting. When we dribble past players we don't go back again, move the ball on if your vision of the state of play changed. I think Weah noticed this when he was sitting on the bench because he came back to collect the ball from Toljan when he seen him about to twist back again and it's the simplest 2 yard pass but it took out 3 Aberdeen players who were starting to press Toljan. It's why Weah is going to grow into an exellent player cause we've all been there with our school or pub teams, dribbling past a player to find ourselves marked men getting pressed cause our dribble is predictive. See when a team made comes over and creates a simple outlet for you and all the pressers growling cause they never seen that happening the first three times, it's a wee blow to the confidence cause how do the press now if your team mates are creating those precious triangles Scottish football was famous for inventing in the 19th century and for which Barca are now.

Another reason I was gushing over Henderson is it's always great to see a player with lovely feet and positive attitude but again I seen flashes of a footballer, just like Weah. There was an attack going through midfield and the ball kinda bounced almost like a random 50/50 but Henderson seen it happening and he seen Bitton was going to win it so he turned sideways moving toward the Aberdeen goal and lay his hands down pointing to Bitton, 'lay me on man,' it was and easy and natural thing for Nir to do but *, he turned around and faced out * goal and passed it to Broony or Ajer, maybe even lost it. That was the moment I knew Bitton should be off and Henderson was in a creative mood, like him and Broony were the only ones who heard Lenny saying we need more forward movement.

I'd love to see the stats of who covered what ground, I guarantee you Henderson was in the Aberdeen half 2ne only to Broony who was a warrior.

If Callum isn't fit we have to play the wee guy, folk are saying he's not ready, can we really say Bitton was ready for that gamee today. We often have bad times with refs but Bitton got away with two yellow tackles.

If you've seen my previous posts I used to love Bitton, a guy with style when he's in the mood but for an Isreali he's a bit * weak. I mean they all do two years army service and yes it turns them into * but that's a differnt story, we want * in midfield, like Broony, he was treating every Aberdeen player with disdain and generally got the ball in every tackle. He saved a bad passback from Bitton too.

Why did Bain decided to hit a 50mph pass straight to Broony in a packed midfield, causing a counter from Aberdeen in the last few minutes? Has anyone reached even a benefit of the doubt state of logic for this type of behaviour? Why couldn[t he just punt it when Burke is up there? I'm going to keep mentioning it even though it seems I'm missing something cause it hasn't changed for 3 years now.

But it better * happen soon because it will eventually lead to disaster and in the last five minutes of the game it's over.

I would play Weah ahaead of Mikey even though I admire the kid, Weah has a more mature understanding, let's face it his dad won a Balon d'Or and Puskas award plus I think he's a successful politician. It suggests Weah knows more about football and how a lot of the game is played off the ball due to that upbrings.

Even so, this guy Bayo looks like he;s going to challenge Broony for being Ninja level focused winners scared of nothing apart from losing.

Give him a go against Dundee. If he's * I'll take the hint and accept it's more comples than a 4 minute video but as I said before, Wanyama made a 6 yard centre circle pass, Virgil made Ajax look a lower division. There are some players you don't have to see much of to know, we've seen it since we've been kids, the difference between a good player and a special player and it goes through our body in the visceral sense of memory and we peak up, we have another gander and we think * man we might have a 30 goal a season kid here who is also inspirational.

I could go on but I've said this too many times. I just want Bayo and Callum back. Toljan is not a worry for me, definitely better going forward than back but he nearly made something happen and he's not been hear long. No doubt he's got quality. I wouldn't be surprised if Lenny picks his tried and trusted Mikel, I wouldn't be unhappy either cause this might be a time for experience at the back and, buzzing likee * forwards all dying to show they love scoring so much they learnt those extra skills to help do it.

Sincy, Eddy and Burke, then at half time fi we're winning take Sincy and Burke off and unleash the

 

Are you pished @Swervedancer ?

 

Or course I was pished off, upset isn't the word, pished is,' weren't you?

 

* me, I tried to quote your post Swerve and it came back saying "You're kidding right". When I'm pished it's usually '* play....... Zzzzzzzzzzzzz', so well played.

By the way, 'Unleash the........... Kraken?'

 

Spot on mate

 

Expected better ....

I know you only support their fans against us

 

Why ?

 

I would love to see Bayo and Eddie start together next game tbh. And if I am honest I expected to see more of Bayo instead of a 5 min cameo.

We seem to be doing everything right except have that killer instinct in front of goal.

 

That result wouldn't actually bother me as much if I thought for one minute that Aberdeen would be taking confidence from it and putting that into getting a result in their cup game. However I am pretty certain they put everything into what was essentially a meaningless game to them, now they will no doubt be shattered and just end up bending over as usual midweek.

The other thing I took from the game is we just shouldn't bother with corners. It's sad when we get a corner and you are 100% certain nothing is going to come from it. Admittedly that isn't just coming from yesterday's game.

 

They beat Rangers in the Semi final of the league cup, and beat them the last time in the league at Ibrox. What you talking about "bending over"

 

The way im looking at it is still 8 points ahead with another 3 games off the fixture list.

We keep the 8 point gap thats what matters,they WILL drop more points than us.

 

im wondering we cant do what every other team in the country does and that is hit the ball into an area you have big guys, try and deliver it head height with a bit of pace ?

whats so difficult about doing that ?

henderson swings in good deliveries, swung in a great ball for ajer

 

We have been pretty * the last few weeks tbh points getting dropped should be the kick up the * we need

 

Abysmal..

 

Another behind the scenes video from Celtic TV

 

Thank you Notorious, it’s a good watch and I am glad to see the bhoys looking * off at full time .

 

The Boyata booking but?

Laughable..

Thomson knows exactly how to spoil a game. Constant nothing fouls. Every throw in and foul the sheep are allowed to take minute's with. Shinnie is never out his ear refereeing the game the wee utter shitebag either..

Big streak of * Thomson..

 

Up there with Gollum as the worst imo, both very unapproachable..

* always smirking and acting like people are trying to con him when they’re actually protesting after a poor decision.

Retirement soon hopefully.
