    Can't believe how slow our build up is. I mean come on, a bit of urgency wouldn't go amiss Celtic.

    We should be used to that by now though

    It's static and nae movement. No pace. Pretty much how most of this season has been.

    I wish we would just start shooting on site coz this passing side to side isnt working.

    How many times have we seen this game this season?

    Side to side, slack passes, no end product, players hiding...

    Fair play to Morton though. They are actually going for it and been more positive than the majority of the teams we face in the league.

    Not having every single player behind the ball. Credit to them for that :50:

    This is boring af.

    I miss the days when players would actually taken on another player and try and beat him.

    Theyve got 9 players in the box. We arent going to pass it through them.

    Side to side, side to side. Give it to Forrest then stand back and admire him.

    Come on to * Celtic!

    Our problem is slow build ups.

    Keeper gets the ball and waits an eternity for everyone to get in their positions. This is turn allows the opposition to get back and get themselves sorted. Then we’re back to square one.

    Bit more directness. Play the ball in the channel, get them turning, break quicker, don’t let them settle. Launch a couple of long balls. Just do anything other than pass it horizontally in our own half for 2 minutes. As a defender for the opposing team that’s a joy, you get a breather and a chance to compose and organise your own defence.

    Get into the final third and what do we do, pass it backwards. Despite the defence being pish it's the attacking part of our game that's been awful this year, domestically anyway

    Would really like Tierney to improve on his right foot.

    Dembele and Forrest are the only forwards up for this.
