    If Griff had been playing tonight it might have only been 6 nil.

    We didn't miss anyone tonight. It wouldn't have made a difference if our strongest 11 started/played.

    That Barca team could pummel the best of them when they are in the mood.

    Dembele's link up was a lot be desired tonight, lot of misplaced passes. Griff link up has vastly improved this season...

    Griffiths would have done a worse job that Demebele up there tonight, for sure.

    Put them in the same situation with the same ball by Sinclair and I dont see why he wouldn't have won it? I think he probably would've scored it simply because he likes to really batter it in the net, whereas Dembele seems to like to place it.

    Either way I don't think it would've mattered if we had Aguero up top tonight, the striker we put on was never going to get anything done regardless. This game was about damage control and we clearly did not do that.

    The only job the 2 Barca centre backs had all game was keeping tight to Dembele in the long balls giving him no chnace plus he had * service and no support. More than harsh on Dembele. The penalty however :54:

    no rush to get him back, up to The Moose to lead the line and bang in the goals.

    great opportunity for our team to learn each others game up front and keep LG fresh for the City game

    It'll be good to get him back in against Alloa.

    Friend of a friend is good pals with Griff, 35 grand a week he is on apparently.

    Only asked cos I wondered what the wages were like at Celtic these days. He must be the top earner surely? Brown as well maybe?
