    What if Messi & Ronaldo & ibrahimovic & Silva & Lahm & vidic
    & one or two other top players were playing for us, they wouldn't win.

    See you talk bollox & we all can talk it. Not as much as you though.

    Rangers aren't around :50:

    Think as fans we've never been overly confident of anything. Seems to have always been like that. Probably why some of us can't get with the programme , but we're getting there. Stick with us we'll get there eventually :50:

    Some of the football we played under Lennon in his last couple seasons was rank rotten, I mind some games at home were unbearable. His first season was when we were at our height domestically alot of the time, but still we lost out on the league.

    I think in the long run the football under RD will be alot better, even if we might concede a few more. I will sacrifice that for more chances, faster play and goals. Just need to make sure we do it on a consistent basis now. There will be a few howlers ofcourse, but generally our football lately has been excellent to watch, only 4 months in as well. Given more time the philosophy will have us playing even better, hopefully.

    I think too many fans are still wanking over Lennon, need to move on. Too blinkered and stubborn to acknowledge that Deila is making clear progress.

    When we were doing poorly in the league he was getting slated. Now we're doing well the league doesn't matter as we were always going to win it :56:

    Deila is beginning to make his mark, all the more remarkable considering the very shaky start he had.

    Will be very interesting to see what kind of players he brings in to compliment the squad in January.

    Think big Ronny is doing well,the changes he wants to make are slowly coming across,give him time and we might play a brand of football that most will be envious.Needs another couple of transfer windows to bring in the players to fit his 4231 system,he says he wants 2/3 signings in January will be interesting to see what position he is targeting.Imo we need cb another lb and an out and out lw similar to Forrest

    The defending has been comical at times and if it wasn't for Gordon we'd concede so much more.
    But we can play some terrific stuff and the transformation in Johanson has been incredible

    We defi itely need to improve our defending, it's horrific to watch at times. I still think we miss Johan Mjallby on the touchline im that sense.

    Defending has been rotten at times but I think the way he is looking to play is going to leave us exposed alot of the time. We'd have to be some team in order to be clinical up top and perfect at the back, don't think we ever will be.

    At the same time, some of the defending against Zagreb for example was schoolboy. Could easily have been avoided but ah well, luckily it' didnt matter.

    Don't need to be perfect but it's a joke at times. Proper Sunday league * and it needs to improve

    Johansen has effectively ended Commons Celtic career but I am delighted with him and his performances and its all down to Ronny being brave enough to drop Kris and trying Stefan there

    Aye, probably used the wrong word there. You know what I mean though, there are going to be alot of times where we will be left open by this style. I still wouldn't mind a centre half who is a bit less ball playing and more brick shithouse.

    This. Even today putting on a youngster as his last substitution when Commons was on the bench.

    He'll probably get slated in the media for it but I thought it was brilliant.

    Sutton will probably have slit his wrists.

    One thing I think Ronny could do better is find a way to get Kris Commons in the side,could Johansen play wide left?

    Johansen Commons Forrest


    Would that work?

    Why put a player in just for the sake of it when he's detrimental to the system?

    No.

    Johansen is playing incredibly well where he is, why destroy that by bringing Commons in to disrupt the system and put Johansen in a position he is completely unfamiliar with?
