Be interesting to see what everyones starting elev would be if everyones fit me personally
Barkas
Elhamed jullien ajer
Frimpong mcgregor ntcham forrest
Moi
Eddy ajeti
In certain games brown for ntcham and you can rotate forrest and taylor and christie and moi. Could also put brown in with ntcham and mcgregor further forward but i feel we have to go 3 5 2 as we struggle with one up top.
If i had my way a better lwb and another central defender in and we are looking strong .
1.) 30 Aug 2020 19:48:40
i would be looking for a top quality left back/ winger for a starting 11.
2.) 30 Aug 2020 19:58:01
Barkas
Elhamed Julien Bitton Taylor
Turnbull McGregor Christie
Ntcham
Edouard Ajeti.
3.) 30 Aug 2020 20:18:35
I would be trying to get a first choice left back as I think Taylor should be no where near our team.
{Ed007's Note - I really don't understand the hate Taylor gets, defensively he's solid enough and he's a grafter, you can't accuse him of hiding during games. I've said all along he would be good enough in Scotland and can only get better but even if he ends up our back-up LB he'll prove to be a reliable player for us imo.}
4.) 30 Aug 2020 20:51:22
i think we should definitely be doing better than taylor.
5.) 30 Aug 2020 21:31:02
I think Taylor is very good, can't understand all the criticism.
6.) 30 Aug 2020 21:34:57
Taylor is a cracking playerðŸ‘.
7.) 30 Aug 2020 22:05:04
Honest hard-working player who's learning what is required. Can't fault that.
8.) 30 Aug 2020 22:17:50
I agree Taylor is a good honest player who does his very best for the club.
One thing I notice is very many of our players go out of their way to get the ball to Taylor, to me this seems his colleagues are full of confidence in the player.
9.) 30 Aug 2020 22:41:05
I would do my best for the club but it wouldn't be good enough.
10.) 30 Aug 2020 23:02:41
Barkas
Elhamed
If we get Duffy
Jullien
Forrest
McGregor
Turnbull
Christie
Taylor
Eddy
Ajeti.

I hav not posted in a while (personal issues) but have a few thoughts after last night. I for one never wanted lennon back, as a player and a man i like him but as a manager not for me. I will always support celtic through and through but that does not mean blindly sitting by and just accepting things because lennons a celtic man or he beat Barcelona years ago or whatever. I feel tacticlly he is poor and seems to rely on players just producing magic to win games and he himself has said he thinks players not tactics/ formations win games which is nonsense and to me is his problem. He trys to shoehorn players in to positions and hope that they come up with the goods instead of tactics. After 5 mins last night you could see there line up would give us problems with the 3 4 3 setup yet nothing was done to accomodate it. If u listen to him or watch himon touchline there is very little coming from him except barking at players to run more or chase down which makes me wonder why now suddenly players want to leave. Are they unhappy with his man management or his coaching and why if players have openly told him they want to leave is he playing them, why not name them and drop them surely playing players not interested is madness. I hope he turns it round a really do but am worried about this year as this to me has hibs all over it where he fell out with players and they downed tools. Another small thing save me the he came and saved us when rodgers left nonsence he was out a job and was not wanted by anyone else so why would he not take it let's be honest no one else wanted him. And before anyone says it i have had a season ticket since 93 and seen how bad the 90s were i am not a spoiled fan i just want the best for celtic and right now i worry about this year and our long term plans as its seems as if all we are consumed with is ten in a row but we should still be thinking long term and the future of celtic. I know a lot won't agree but this is just how a feel. I welcome any debate about it as we are all entitled to our opinions.
1.) 27 Aug 2020 18:46:40
Nothing to debate mate, that is a top class post.
2.) 27 Aug 2020 19:26:23
While Peter Lawell is pulling the strings, there will be no more top class managers at Celtic; as his ego won't allow it.
The rare intervention of DD led to the previous managers appointment when RD was dismissed at a very low point, but the relationship between manager and chief exec was volatile and difficult to say the least, ending with a one-way ticket to Leicester. DD has been pretty anonymous since.
I can't see any immediate changes within the current regime, unless we drop more points, exit cup competitions and start to make an absolute bawz of the season - and no-one wants that.
However I take your point about the alleged unrest and telling tales out of school, leading to damaging team spirit, splits, cliques and low moral on top of the tactical and personnel issues.
3.) 27 Aug 2020 20:30:16
Good post Hamilton Bhoy in my opinion I agree with you.
06 Oct 2019 16:49:15
No been on in a while due to health issues recently but most will know i was not happy with lennons appointment and i stand by that although i must admit i had been pleasently suprised with our start obv apart from cluj we have been doing well but the last two games have worried me. Against hibs i thought lennons subs at the time were baffling and again today i thot his subs were poor and resulted in us just pumping long balls up the park more in hope than anything else if any team presses us and gets physical we struggle and seem to have no plan b although of course the sending off didn't help . If was up to me i would pull mcgregor and forrest out the scotland games as these boys need a break if lennon isn't going to rest them . Hopefully seeing that mob go top will motivate the players to up their game as on paper we are head and shoulders above anything in scotland yet we sit second.
07 Aug 2019 19:56:22
Know its only half time in first leg but think this shows we need a few bodies in our left side worries me a know its very early but boli is giving me fear when he defends and am sorry but morgan is not gd enough hoped to be proved wrong by both but cluj are not a great side either yet look capable of scoring more but anyway mon the hoops woulda took score draw before game began.
02 Aug 2019 14:15:17
only saw twitter comments from lennon but seems as if we are now waiting on english market closing before we do more business which worries me slightly as a feel we would be better looking at other leagues like dutch german scandanavian ect also saying now he's happy with the squad and its balance which again worries me . Personally feel we are short of 3 players at least as i don't think we are any stronger than last year and surely we want to improve year after year and try make european qualifiers easier for ourself . Again just my opinion.
1.) 02 Aug 2019 14:29:12
Hope he's not implying no more funds until KT is sold with that comment.
2.) 02 Aug 2019 16:08:51
Samm, there’s funds there if need be, lawwell isn’t daft mind! It’s just typical Celtic, the younger generation on here won’t get how it’s worked for YEARS.
Celtic never overspend, rightly so, but they also don’t speculate to accumulate.
We’ve spent £10mil on transfers, take wages into account also, there will be deals in the pipeline but nothing will really happen until KT has moved on, then maybe another 8/ 10mill spent on transfers/ wages, it’s just what happens.
The only good thing now, normally when we get put out champions league qualifiers, we also used to always sell our main asset, that might not be the case (unless someone pushes for a move not wanting to play Europa)
With all the money the board are sitting on. gathering up. for a rainy day. mibe. probably no 😂.
3.) 02 Aug 2019 16:09:13
Waiting until the English market closes makes sense, if we were actually to reinvest the KT money, our level of target could change considerably.
4.) 02 Aug 2019 17:40:42
jimtim a get wat you are saying but the wages down south are crazy a 4 to 5mill player dwn there will be on upwards 40 grand a week which we simply won't pay where as if we invest wisely abroad a feel the wages may be cheaper.
5.) 02 Aug 2019 18:34:42
HB my point isn't about signing players from EPL clubs that are surplus to requirements there. My point is that once the English window is shut we have a fairly good idea of where KT will be playing next season. Say we sign a RB this week for 5m. Then KT is sold at the death of the English window for 25m. We might be left feeling that we could have got a better, more expensive target. I'm not necessarily saying any more signings depend on him being sold. But KT being sold I would hope seriously changed the level of player we'll look to bring in.
6.) 02 Aug 2019 19:00:34
dont think the board think like that mate but you never know hopefully your right but personally don't see it that way what a got from it was we will see who isn't gona get games down south that may be willi g to come here ie castoffs or youth players on loan.
7.) 02 Aug 2019 19:36:06
It could be either theory to be fair bud. I'd seriously think if they knew what was best the board would make a couple of quality signings if KT is sold.

morgan should never be starting infront of sinky in my opinion his crossing and touch is really poor would rather have seen shved instead but sinkys goals need replaced n don't think morgan or johnstone will get 15 a season.

Al bite since your aiming that at me mate although a was in hospial after being jumped after old firm game so thts why i not posted in a while. Also i did say a had been pleasantly suprised by our start but i still have my doubts about lennon its not sniping its called constructive critisim if he gets plaudits for playing well then need take critisism also when its due and recently in league we have been poor and scoring less goals while conceding the first goal making it harder to win. Lennons teams have a habit of playing well for a while but then dropping off and going on a poor run i just hope its a blip and a boot up the arse because this is going to be closer than a lot of fans think . Again its just ma opinion.
16 Aug 2019 20:46:14
A feel we need a few more if am honest as a feel we might sell one more. I would like a gk (know it won't happen) lb def mid and poss another striker.
16 Aug 2019 20:31:18
End of the day enrico a just want best for celtic mate and i just don't think lennon is the right man and not just based on one game. What annoys me more a suppose is the fact that we should be so far in front of them that they should be irrelevant to us the fact that they are close to us after only 8 years ago being in third division is shocking we seem to be regressing to a level tht allows them near us which is unacceptable.
16 Aug 2019 20:08:05
Aye ed its got a bad name but couldny see myself anywhere else to be honest 😂 good to see you back on again know you were unsure about doing this but hopefully u stick around.
{Ed007's Note - I've been about mate but I just can't be ar$ed with the whole transfer window sagas and the hysteria that comes with it.}
16 Aug 2019 20:01:27
Enrico he won the league when he should have let's be honest there his track record since walking out on us has been poor so again why did he deserve the job would u have been happy with anyone else with the record he has if they had no affiliation to celtic.
