Strong words KS don’t know if id be that harsh but his team selection of 3/4 players at the moment genuinely under performing is confusing. Seems to have favourites who last few weeks have been pretty poor consistently performance wise. They specifically nearly cost us today. His not playing Ntcham is a crazy and playing a poor Armstrong in such a big game was mental. He now needs to step up and get them back into his way of playing ...massive window for him now. |

I'd agree with you in that a combination of injury and quick rotation seems to have destroyed the form of a lot of key players from last season. Rogic, Roberts, Dembele, Griffiths, Armstrong, McGregor, Simunovic to name have all performed well below the standards they set last season. |

Couldn't disagree with his assessment. 2017 has been a special year. Time to hit the reset button now and move forward |

Ntcham was great when he came on but the game was stretched by then. We were in control at ht. We had dominated the half and Mac/Arm had played their part. Mac was always available for a pass and despite a few wild shots he did ok. In the second half our whole midfield fell out of the game. Rodgers tactics and team should be 3 nil up at ht. With the game running away from us in the 2nd half he brings on Griffiths. Too many players under performed today. Rodgers is not above criticism. However Sinclair missed 2 sitters in the first half. Forrest should have scored as well. Back Rodgers, in January with 2 new players to complement the German lad and we will improve. Edited by allthewine, 30 Dec 2017, 03:25 PM.

Brendan has signed and re-signed 20-odd players as Celtic manager. |

We’ve not spent the money that we have available on the team, we’ve signed lots of projects, I’m sure there have been some players that he wanted that we couldn’t get due to budget constraints |

Just to clarify ticcy, you believe he got his tactics and team selection spot on today? BR deserves criticism where it’s due as well as praise when it’s merited, and today, he tactically shat all over the place. The most basic call, was to start Ntcham when every poster here unanimously called for it in their predicted line ups. |

We don't have the passing speed to play out front the back. Too slow getting into position and Gordon ponders with the ball whilst we do. Need to change up. |

This. His constant rotation is actually starting to cost us. Especially players who don’t deserve to come in. He deserves time of course and money but it seems hs stubbornness is nw starting to cost him. I only refer to his european performances and his patter post PSG.....well this the way play so thats it. Stubbornness showing in more ways than one. Still have 100% faith in him all the same but it is a worry. |

The reality is, too many of the new guys are just not raising our game. Gamboa, Kouassi, Hayes, Edouard, DeVries and Benyu have all hit the ground walking. That's SIX signings. There's a reason why people keep saying BR is winning with Deilas team. It's because a majority of signings just haven't done enough to oust the old guard. |

Providing we get the right keeper in. Keepers that are good with the ball at their feet are few and far between. And likely cost a pretty penny. Completely disagree that they would make a miraculous difference to our mis-firing players. We badly need better quality players. Ones who calm in possession and ones who are better creators. We really need a play maker just now. If it's that easy why isn't the manager dropping them? Playing McGregor today was mind numbingly stupid. |

I'd forgotten all about Benyu. Although Edouard did get a hat-trick recently and I think Gamboa perhaps deserves another chance - Lustig looks absolutely done. |

Guilty of over-thinking things on too many occasions in order to achieve some sort of tactical masterclass. Picks the wrong team and changes the team too often. A few, possibly knee-jerk, criticisms from my entirely amateur point of view of one of our greatest ever managers, who's attributes and achievements are too numerous to mention in a quick forum post. |
