Why no Edourad.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 18:32:36
so with that line up i take it moi will be upfront?

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 18:36:06
No striker in that line up what is Lenny thinking does he not trust ajeti or klimala. That's a poor vote of confidence.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 18:42:26
Christie will play up front.

Agree2 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 18:42:59
Christie up front according to snide. Would have preferred one of our strikers playing there, think this is to fit him and Ntcham in the same team.

Agree3 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 18:46:52
So a one off game and we play with no recognisable striker? I understand Eddy is out injured but we have other strikers take the Lenny mask off Craig Levein.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 18:49:14
abet not fit enough klimalas hold up game nowhere near good enough v team that will sit deep so we have to go with what we got but i worry about tonight now.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 18:55:07
We should be fine beating this mob with that side.

Agree2 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 18:56:30
That is a ⨍⋃⋐ki∩⅋ disgrace, Lenny.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 19:02:32
Obviously Lennon doesn't fully rate Klimala or he'd start. Hope to goodness this doesn't backfire.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 19:06:49
Let's hope Christie puts his boots on the right feet today.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 19:11:14
he will be our most dangerous player on the park.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 19:15:46
Has someone else been practicing corners 🤭.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 20:42:35
We should be playing with a striker tonight it's a one off game just throw everything at them let's hope ajeti or klimala come on before it's too late they are tiring but still no one is taking control forrest has been rotten but then am not his biggest fan anyway so maybe a little over critical.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 21:38:25
Well Lenny has a fair few questions to answer.

Agree2 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 22:09:15
Did he answer any? his general presentation smacks of Sunday league hungover. Tactics match.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 22:12:42
Lennon will just say yes Mr Lawell whatever you want me to say, we are stuck with a dud of a manager and a coach who won’t do walking away, but at least we can say we are better than Rangers, well at least for now, bye Eddy, McGregor, Ajer, Ntcham, good players wasted, Bolingoli got further in Europe than we did.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 22:44:12
Eddy out of game, keeps him fit for the sale, deal must be close, Ajer and Christie want out too.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Aug 2020 11:21:58
Hopefully they take Lennon with them.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Aug 2020 12:18:51
Maybe they'll take lenmon as their fitness coach.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 15:17:49
Turnbull didn't train with well today Robinson saying he doesn't know if he'll be away.

Believable2 Unbelievable0

26 Aug 2020 16:52:44
I think he will be signed tomorrow. Might even be at game tonight. He looks to me like a 6-8 out of 10 every game player. A bit like we get from Calmac. Whereas guys like Ntcham can be 2/ 10 or 9/ 10. I think he will be a great long term signing.

Agree4 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 17:25:10
Absolutely agree chinks.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 17:27:22
Would be delighted if he was to sign tomorrow - hopefully after a good result. Then maybe some urgent progress on Hickey and a CB?

Agree1 Disagree0

27 Aug 2020 11:29:31
Mr Lawell should hang off on any of lennons signings he doesn't play the guys he signed but lennon should go after last night the buck stops with him. He is happy to take the credit but wants to pass the buck when things go wrong. Time to go Mr lennon.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 14:32:08
Just heard a rumour that there is no Eddy tonight.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

26 Aug 2020 14:48:35
He’s out, thigh strain, Klimala up top.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 15:05:31
you were spot on last week kev about ajar earlier in the day. i know eddy is struggling with a thigh injury big big loss.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 15:08:39
That's a big loss for such an important game. Gives us a glimpse of Celtic minus-Eddy just in case?

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 15:15:03
Heard that earlier kev then sly saying he's fit. who knows.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 15:28:55
He was hobbling when he left the park against utd.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 15:48:11
Gives Klimala a chance to show what he is made of. Big man will be a loss though as he holds it up brilliantly and brings midfielders into it, even when he is himself not banging them in. Still confident of 2 goal victory. What happens if it's a draw, do away goals count or extra time?

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 15:56:37
Extra time and pens I believe. Just hope it doesn't go that far in favour of us. My fingernails wouldn't last another munching 🤣.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 17:01:02
NL said eddy had a thigh strain in press conference other day so fingers crossed for tonight.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 17:09:11
Hope this doesn't mean eddys away. Any injury now where he doesn't play is going to give the fear haha.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 00:14:54
David Turnbull won't be completed until next week as Motherwell have requested talks stall until after their European tie with Glentoran

I'm led to believe talks will resume over the weekend and that Luca Connell or Scott Robertson will move on loan as part of any deal involving Turnbull.

Believable1 Unbelievable0

26 Aug 2020 09:52:21
Luca Connell impressed me pre-season and a loan-spell with regular games could be the making of him and show how he does over a season?

Agree2 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 10:44:03
So let him play against glentoran and he could get injured. what's the point in that.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 11:02:32
He could get injured at any point. Hopefully he plays, Motherwell go through and Scotland get more co efficient points. This will benefit us more than him getting the customary 6 months to adjust to the demands of being a Celtic player that Lennon will give him.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 12:06:43
Just get him signed and send him back to Motherwell on loan until January.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 12:21:51
Another poster said you don't get coefficient points ar this stage of UCL or EL qualifiers.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 12:35:30
I think clubs still get coefficient points in qualifiers.
I read somewhere in these one off games it’s something like 2 points for a win in 90 mins but less if the club goes through after extra time or penalties.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 12:40:40
Maybe Turnbull wants to payback well and delay until after tonight

Dont worry, rbe Jersey and scarf moment will come soon

I think he is better than McGinn incidentally. McGinn too jumpy and error prone ( decent as he is )

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 12:45:11
or maybe pedro not committing to anything until he has champions league money in his hip pocket.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 13:35:27
Robroy turnbull deal not contingent on qualification for either euro tournament

To be honest. I would bite your hand off for EL group qualification right now

Graham.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 15:07:20
its standard practice not to play when a move is lined up is it not.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 18:54:16
You only get coeff point when you either exit or qualify for group stages of either champions league or Europa.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Aug 2020 18:59:08
UEFA Champions League points system
Group stage participation – 4 points
All wins from group stage onward – 2 points
All draws from group stage onward – 1 point
Round of 16 participation – 4 points

Clubs are awarded an additional point if they reach the round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals or final.

N. B. Points are not awarded for elimination in the qualifying rounds or play-offs, since those clubs move to the UEFA Europa League and are awarded points for participation in that competition.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Aug 2020 11:33:17
If Lennon is still in charge we will have bain in goal and Barkas upfront the guy is a tactical moron and he was shown up last night by a bang average side.

Agree0 Disagree0
