Don't think he's naive enough to think we can play the same way in Europe. We have the tools to counter as needed. Five at the back?
Think that is a real possibility

Goals scored so far this season from attacking players:

Dembele 7
Griffiths 7
Sinclair 4
Forrest 3
Rogic 3
Roberts 1
Christie 1
Armstrong 1

So much firepower. I love the attacking brand of football Brendan has us playing. We can potentially break all kinds of goal scoring records this season.

That sub yesterday bringing on Armstrong was a stroke of genius :worthy:

I would bet about 99 per cent of us where scratching our heads. It really did seem a little baffling. Rogic didn't look overly tired and I expected the huns to blow themselves out in the same way they did in first 15 minutes of the first half. However, a couple of minutes later we looked more solid and we ran all over the top of them. The guy is all there and then some :wub:

I'm going to go and read over the match thread when Armstrong came on - just for laughs!! Probably sounded just like everyone in my section.

I love the excited he gets at the end of the game. He just watched around the ground at "you'll never walk alone" you could see the pride in his face, then at the end, his thump of his heart and the big smile . Love him :wub:

That sub showed why Rodgers is manager of Celtic and we are not, while I wasn't going apoplectic, I thought it was a load of nonsense. Drove us over the line in the end.

I never posted about it but I thought it was utterly bizarre. What do I know.

'don't be disrespectful'

shades of MON dealing with the press.

Did not think Armstrong was a good decision at the time. Happy to be proved wrong.

Got to admit, Armstrong sub puzzled me but in hindsight it worked well. Barton had dropped deeper to gain space, he was starting to come onto a game. I think Armstrong was the better option to close that down. Given Rogic was tiring and isn'the as good at closing space it worked out well.

The Armstrong sub confused everyone, I think. I initially thought he was going to replace Sinclair but he knew exactly what he was doing and it worked wonders. Rogic was tiring and couldn't press which allowed Barton et al to put together a few passes. They had their tails up and thought they had a chance. Armstrong came on and brought the energy that was required to put the game back into the position it was beforehand - total dominance from Celtic.

Love the guy, i just hope (its going to happen) he can handle it when the zombies start their pish and the press start hounding him, we arent allowed to be streets ahead of them and they will do everything they can to destabilise us.

I genuinely believe he thinks he is very lucky to be at Celtic and he is loving every minute of it, long may it continue :pray:

It was a genius move. His ability to change things up mid match has been superb so far.
