A combination of no strikers fit and to many players off the boil. Bad luck is to blame . Manager under pressure . Oh my god

Pre season is down to him, the wait for the EPL squad transfer strategy is his. Injuries, that's unlucky yes, but of course he is under pressure. Despite what earlier posts say it's not a team with an excellent cl pedigree we were up against, but they still created the best chances. At the moment we're lucky not to be all but out. If we play more games like that we will be. |

🎙️#CelticFC manager Brendan Rodgers spoke to the media today ahead of Saturday's #DafabetCup17 clash with @SunderlandAFC 💬 BR on team news: "Will mix it up. 1 or 2 players who played the other night will play, some, with little knocks, we'll need to keep back." 💬 BR: "Most important game is next Wednesday but a chance for some players to play & get some game-time & for some of our younger players." 💬 BR on @Leighgriff09 latest: "Will wait & see. Over the weekend, we'll see what his reaction is to working outside, same with @eriksviat " 💬 BR on #UCL 2nd-leg: "Reality is at this time in the season, we aren't going to be at the same level of fitness as the other team." 💬 BR: "Doesn't make it any easier in that we are missing two top strikers and Dedryck Boyata. Take those 3 players out & can be difficult." 💬 BR: "The players have been brilliant. Other night, we played with no striker, trying to find a way, and most important we didn't concede." 💬 BR: "Never going to be perfect as so early on, but we found a way not to concede, which gives us a great opportunity for the 2nd-leg." BR on promoting @JackAitchison7 for #UCL tie: "A 17-year-old boy who needs time to develop. An excellent young player but not his time."💬 BR: "I think one of my strengths is gauging when it's the right time and moment for a young player." BR on scoring over in Norway: "Game will open up a bit more over there. Huge pressure on them, playing at home. Should open more space."

BR on promoting @JackAitchison7 for #UCL tie: "A 17-year-old boy who needs time to develop. An excellent young player but not his time."💬 With some crying out for Atchison to play I had a feeling this was going to be the reason. if he is not ready, I fully agree with Brendan. |

If your interpretation is that "KDS panic merchants" think Rodgers is under pressure to keep his job, horse shampoo. If your interpretation is that "KDS panic merchants" think Rodgers is under pressure to progress to the final UCL qualifier, as Deila and Lennon were before him, spot on. |

Exactly. Of course he's under pressure, pressure to get to the last qualifying round. No one is talking about sacking the man.

Not sure I'm following the logic of BR's comments about not having three top strikers at the club. If that means the third striker has to be around Cifti's level then it makes no sense to leave him unregistered for two crucial games when it looks like the top strikers are out. I can understand not wanting to throw a young player into these games but surely Cifti being up there would have made things even slightly better? I don't see how it can make them much worse. |

Leaving a squad size of 22 (13 midfielders) as Ciftci isn't in the Euro list. |

Edited to add 20 players "fit" to play. 13 of whom are midfielders. |
