    Kinda looked like a kinda farewell, a love moussa but hes been very poor aswell recently, a 25m striker should be making chances himself and getting onto balls, in the first half sinky played a baw right across goal moussa should have been onto that
    Huns will be creaming their pants
    To be fair when you play teams 4 times a season and we can played them 6 last season, laws of averages you won't beat them every time
    Played them 8 times since start of last season won 6 drew 2, and we won the ones that mattered in both semis
    Can't always be on our top game, 11 points ahead of them

    Don't get why Ntcham wasn't on from the start,I think it would have been a different game if he started.

    Understand your frustration but have to disagree, I think our midfield was the problem, the forwards rely on them to be imaginative. Which Ntcham is so it's the only mistake I can ever think of Brendan making cause that's twice he's done it and we looked a poorer team.
    Don't think we need to spend, our players man for man easily outclass them but sport is all about mentality and hopefully the rest and reflection will see us back to our best after the break.

    Lustig, mcgregor, boyata, Armstrong and Dembele may as well of walked off pitch today.

    We where *, Brendan's team selection was poor, players * themselves and they where up for it, fair play to Huns they wanted it more than we did and in second half where unlucky not to win.

    First half we should of taken our chances

    Must be so frustrating taking a throw in for us. We must be the worst team in the world for players making themselves available.

    Did the atmosphere come across as flat as it was at the game...worst one I can remember in ages...clearly the tedium was a the main factor... Poor end to an unbelievable Year

    At least I won't have any highlights to watch when I get home

    So much sloppy play today....brutal

    Onwards and upwards

    We shouldnt be dropping points to a team as bad as sevco ,pish performance .passing backwards for the sake of passing it instead of taking the game to them * then Gordon taking 5 mins every time to give the ball away infuriating!!

    Woeful second half performance that was like the PSG performances kept giving the ball away, a better team would have hammered us. Ntcham and Ajer only the pass marks. Gordon with a great save but the forward really shouldn’t have given the keeper a chance to save it.

    I think think if we're shrinking here then we'll be invisible away.

    I agree with what people are saying about the midfield - a whole lot of central players that don't even amount to 1 decent one - Brown and Ntcham aside.

    How did McGregor and Armstrong stay on that pitch for 90 minutes?

    Ntcham looked a class above in the short time he was on the park and should start every game from here on in.

    Taking off Sinclair just took away our main goal threat. Bizarre.

    I think that was the last time we'll see Dembele in the hoops too.

    This team lack a bit of moxie that teams of the past had, it's why we get rolled over by the big teams in the Champions League! Wouldn't have happened under Lenny! When the going gets tough, it's only Broony that stands up.

    To be fair judging from last season we went away on this break and came back a lot better which bodes well for the European game and rest of season

    Said before kick off rogers picked wrong side and rogers needs to have a plan B as that's two draws that murty has had at Celtic park.
    Think we need to bring in another two or three players in the transfer window.

    Pro's... Brooney, Gordon, SPL Lead, Not Getting Beat Today.

    Cons's... pretty much everything else (including the * pitch)!

    A generally wretched display. I expect better from the likes of Dembele and Sinclair, but they were both AWOL... and have been for a while now! Sure, Scotty has nabbed a few goals recently, but look at them... a penalty, a tap-in that landed fortuitously at his feet after someone else's shot had hit the post, a wicked deflection, and one admittedly very good strike. One good strike every now and again is not enough! Sorry, but I have even less to defend Moussa with - he... erm...has potential... and that's about it! Punt whilst he's still 'hot'!

    Give him criticism when he deserves it but ffs give him a * break when he saved us from a total riddy.
