I thought last night was a high stakes game? At least that's what a few posts alluded too before kick off. |

That's what I mean, we may as well close down the talking shop now. Bad players aren't actually crap, they just haven't met Brendan yet. I was never one for calling him utterly useless or whatever but could more than understand why folk would given the amount of chances and goals he cost us. He was bad, it was just a fact. |

He made quite a few mistakes but unlike the likes of Efe not many of those mistakes actually cost us goals on a regular basis. |

I dunno if that's the case or not but the fact Ambrose is the bar shows what regard he was held in. One real test will be how he handles his next error. |

Exactly. He was mercilessly targeted by the opposition from goal kicks because they knew he would cough it up. A real vicious circle. Not now though. No sirree Bob. |

nah. he cost an absolute shampooload of goals in a short space of time. way more than efe until he had his usual brainfart against fenerbahce the criticism was in no way harsh or undeserved. this was only a few months ago https://twitter.com/LilZe7/status/768487115223162880 the praise he is getting now is equally deserved |

This. He was awful at times. But he rightly deserves the praise he's getting just now. He was excellent last night. |

He was genuinely brutal. Big physical centre half who wasn't comfortable on the ball and was prone to quite a few errors per game, moreso than Efe - though Efe's did tend to be bigger. It's been an absolute transformation and it's mental. While he must've had something to get picked up by Man City their fans thought he was an absolute calamity too. Great to see and Rodgers forcing him to the fans last night was a great touch. To think some are bemoaning his man management in relation to Griffiths.

Boyata has, and always had, far more scope to be a player than Ambrose. Edited by PaulieWalnuts67, 2 Feb 2017, 01:16 PM.

HE was awful at times and lapses in concentration cost you as we all know agaInst European teams and 3/4 teams who test us domestically. Big man is getting well deserved praise but I still think Erik/Jozo is our best pairing. All for seeing one of our players do well but would still not trust him in Europe at this point. Keep playing and silly mistake free until end of season and chat will be different. |

To be fair, it's easy to understand him being nervous coming from Man City to Celtic. It's a big step up.

If he keeps his place he will make mistakes, just as Erik would if he came back. Van Dijk had his fair share but seemed to brush them off. It's the type of mistakes he makes and if he can react well to it. |

Think Rodgers looked at it objectively as well, unlike us he's in a position to influence it and deserves a lot of credit. He may well have saved us millions in the summer in how Boyata and Gordon have responded. |

I got 33's from Betfred yesterday afternoon, and had a wee swatch at half time in the stadium and Ladbrokes were offering 28's on their first goal in the 2nd half coupon. I'm not much of a gambler but is it often you get such big differences in odds? |
