    not been to great. if it does not pick up soon i would consider getting forest or matthews on for ki or leadley so we can get some more width. need to get kris back on the left.

    brines is the most grossly incompetent ref ever, he should not be taking charge of junior games let alone spl games.

    Someone needs to murder that referee. Intimidation is the best course of action against them.

    Not a bad half, great finish from stokesy bhoy but we just need a bit more incisiveness in the final third.

    As long as we get the points I do not mind about the nature of the win! Its the first game of the season ,its a very early start to the season, give the lhads a chance. Plus the team is not complete yet there will be more signings to come. Chin up ffs!

    I think we have defended well and Hibs only chances are from crosses in because they just can't get by our midfield. when they have chucked it in we have looked assured IMO and loovens looks actually pretty good while kelvin looks very athletic.

    Think we need to calm it a wee bit with the forward runs from full back as thats where hibs are getting their joy, while stokes n hooper look isolated at times.

    overall i've been pleased and i'm very happy with Ki and his passing ability.

    Commons is a much better player on the left hand side.

    I thought that was an alright first half, everything I expected from the first game of the season. I actually like Commons on the right, he is good at cutting inside.

    Only change I would make would be to take off Ki who is going through the motions.

    Yeh exactly, the passing game is great when it works, we dont seem to be breaking the defence enough, a Maloney or Mccourt is whats needed.

    what i think celtic need to do is get another winger on , ledley is wasted outwide and when the hibs full backs are upfield we have no pace on the wings to counter attack and put the hibs defence under pressure , i would take ki or ledley of and put forrest on and try and pin the hibs full backs back as it is them that are causing us slight problems.

    kelvin wilsons looks decent so far , looks pacey and looks composed , one slack pass but other than that a good debut so far !

    Nah Ki has been our best player this half, his passing has linked up the play well.

    Stokes for me by some distance. If he learned to hold his run a split second he could have had a hat trick first half. Quality finish as well.

    If I was Hooper, I'd do a Cantona on him. Dead serious.

    Aye Stokes has been on the ball, and I cannot believe that finish tbh cool as!
    But honest I think we would miss Ki in midfield, he looks more polished than the rest, who are clearly a wee bit rusty from the break.
