Last year you could say the players were giving him everything he asked of them, in every game.

He’s not getting anywhere near the same level this time around. It’s all a bit MON’s last season.

Lenny never got into EL or CL group stage in either of 1st 2 seasons by results (granted got into EL in 2nd seasons because of Sion).

In his 3rd got CL last 16, which is the one season that is better than BR and in his last got gubbed even worse than we have this seasons in CL without qualifying for EL.
lennon didnt have the luxury of the seeded, champions route in fairness

we hardly got gubbed even worse in his last season, same number of points as this season and less scuddings

not that id swap brendan for lennon at all. lennon is still vastly underrated by many though
Fair point about seedlings but in addition he had a poor Ajax and Milan in his last group rather than PSG and Anderlect, so swings and roundabouts.

Was just more a point that the majority of lennys results weren't good enough to use as stick to beat BR with.

Team has too many mistakes in it whether that's losing the man or giving the ball away.
Team isn't creating enough (in many games) and not scoring enough.
This pass pass pass is now a habit meaning the killer pass is too often needed to create anything, when it comes off its great , when it doesn't it just looks inept.

We've gone from invincible to indecisive.

Is he doing any better than Lennon?
Lennon. Ffs.
I'm not suggesting we replace Rodgers with Lennon in comparing European success and budgets.

BR deserves a bit of criticism for this season but some of the stuff flying around is ridiculous.

Lennon.

The Hibs manager. Give me peace.
Aye - who could possibly consider a Hibs manager good enough for Celtic?

That's good. Lennon is an inferior manager to Rodgers in every way.

It's worthwhile to keep that in mind.

Apart from when you said give Lenny half the budget of BR and he achieves the same results?

Yip exactly what I said.

See post a couple up.

Ronny never qualified for CL in either of his 2 seasons, BR has and also stayed in Europe post Xmas in 1.

Lenny never got into EL or CL group stage in either of 1st 2 seasons by results (granted got into EL in 2nd seasons because of Sion).

In his 3rd got CL last 16, which is the one season that is better than BR and in his last got gubbed even worse than we have this seasons in CL without qualifying for EL.

Don’t get why anyone can say we have progressed in Europe this season , we ended up with same points in champs league , last year we had 3 decent performances in group stages . This year one arguably 2 if you include the defeat at home To Bayern. We only qualified for Europa was because anderlecht were truly awful. This whole season we have regressed. No doubt about it.

Aye, to be fair, you're not going to convince me that 10 points in the UCL is not better than 3.
