Saying we are only in Europe due to a huge slice of luck is downplaying an achievement. |

Not if it's true it's not. We were garbage in Europe this season. We lost 5 out of 6 including all 3 at home for the first time ever. That's nothing to be proud of yet because Anderlecht were slightly worse than us we scraped through. Some achievement. |

Totally agree, we played Anderlecht away from home at the right time when they were a mess internally with no manager. To lose three home games in Europe is a disgrace regardless of the opposition. |

BR needs to drop his reliance on players like Lustig who is totally done. Been a great servant to the club and may have great experience at right back but he's got no pace and is easily beaten and offers nothing going forward and if anything takes play back to defence too often. Ralston needs to be given a shot. He needs to drop McGregor, Sinclair and Armstrong (again). Ntcham needs to start every game. And what happened to Kouassi? |

There is no escaping the fact that blame lies squarely with the manager. |

You know what your absolutely right. Oh how I long for the glorious days of getting put out in the 2nd qualifying round or struggling past east kilbride in the 4th round of the Scottish cup |

Does anyone care what they say, the Scottish media once told us that McLeish had the Indian sign over us & MON when he first arrived at the death star. McLeish won 1 out of his first 11 league games against us including losing 7 on the bounce

I cannot be critical of BR's Celtic after a calendar year containing only one domestic defeat, an Invincible Treble, a successful defence of the League Cup and a decent leading margin in the League as we go into the winter break. However, it is patently obvious that BR's Celtic need this winter break to rest and recharge. It is also patently obvious that we need quality additions in the January transfer market. First team ready quality. COYBIG |

Whole team is playing like they need a hug. Maybe a tighter huddle might help. Hopefully a few weeks of relaxation and followed by a solid boot up the arse sorts things out. As far as investment goes we shouldn’t require a single penny to be spent to beat that hun team. We’ve just got a serious lack of hunger at the moment and i’m not sure how exactly you cure that. |

What difference will a rest make? Last season was absolutely terrific because Rodgers (and the players themselves) got lots of players playing pretty much as good as they ever will, all at the same time. A rest won’t make Sinclair not a shampooebag, or suddenly make McGregor be able to play as a 10, or make Boyata be able to pass the ball, or make Lustig twice as fast as he currently is, or make Gordon not a shambles with the ball at his feet. At both us and Liverpool, Rodgers had proven himself to be great at improving player he already has, but if we are going to stay at this level, never mind improve, he needs to make, and get right, and few first XI signings in the next two windows. |

The decision not to play Ntcham gets more and more bizarre the more I think back on that game. |

Brendan created an invincible team with mostly underperforming players inherited from the previous manager.That team always had a shelf life which has come to the fore in last few weeks. A winter break, some squad reshuffling with couple of decent first team recruits he will have us flying again. With fewer midweek games then will help Brendan with more coaching sessions on key parts of our play, the areas that we have seen drop off recently. |

On your point Re toure and Kennedy. We have no such thing as a defensive coach, we have a group of coaches and specialists who work with the team. One of JKs main rolls is set pieces. Out of our back room team JK, KT and CD are all defenders by trade - yet none of them specifically have the title defensive coach. |
