On Sunday St Mirren came up with a system that troubled us for quite a while and our own team selection helped the Saints also.
Firstly to the good planning by the Paisley team in making Celtic play from the back using Boyata to distribute the ball, as we all know Boyata could not hit a barn door with the ball two feet away.
Secondly playing GMS ahead of Roberts was a huge mistake by Rodgers, GMS has neither the skill nor the heart to play in our first team.
So on Sunday surely the distribution must come from Biton or Armstrong, I know Biton slows play down but he is surely a better passer of a ball. I think it is clear also that Roberts MUST play ahead of GMS we look better when he plays. The third thing we must change for Sunday, which I think it will, is our attitude, against St Mirren we disrespected them and thought we just had to turn up to win.
Make these 3 changes and we will run all over the top of the tribute act.

Think gms started due to paddy havin been out with the injury. and hell start for sure on sun . But think the big decision is whether to play griff and leave Bitton on bench.

I think a combination of our tempo (or lack there of) and slackness made St Mirren look a bit better than they were - even early on.

Let's not GMS missed a sitter and Biton should have been one on one if not for dodgy offside call.

Point is we were getting in behind before they scored (from an admittedly well worked set piece, it happens) and continued to do so after the goal: dembele missed a sitter, and gms again when two on one picked wrong option.
