Most probably a 7 - 1 defeat.

Generally agree. Any of them can be effective if done properly though. Same as 3 or 4 at the back, same as zonal v man-for-man. There isn’t one approach which is absolutely right or wrong. Just effin practice the one that best suits the players and style of play, and get better at it. |

Not only is Clarke correct but Rodgers would do well to takes notes for when the tables are turned in the champions league I'm pretty sure a Stevie clarke managed Celtic wouldn't ship 7 goals in Europe, albeit I also expect the football most other weeks wouldn't be sparkling either It's up to our manager to find that balance and the pressure is on him to do that next season because while my own expectations are pretty low as soon as we hit the group stages, a couple of humpings is not on |

Fair enough. I would be nowhere near as confident of navigating the qualifying rounds if Clarke was our manager |

Rodgers could have chosen his words more carefully and Clarke has responded in a pretty civil and professional way. |

For the lads discussing set pieces I started a topic on it after one of the games in March - 8 pages of discussion and some links to articles discussing the effectiveness of corners and I think there was something written by CelticByNumbers as well. http://kerrydalestreet.co.uk/topic/11064416/1/ General consensus was that we aren't very good at them.

This. There's absolutely nothing wrong with what Clarke has said. We've had the same condescending crap from clubs in the Champions League when we've defended well. Perhaps Rodgers should take note and actually learn the value of being able to set up an underdog to scrape results. |

there was none of this firemen stuff last season. Not BR’s smartest comment.

Clarke is a class act, he isn't one to let BR's comments go without having a pop back but he's been clever with his response. I like BR but there was no need for his comments the other night. He did this at Liverpool too towards the end and his mask slipped. |

Every manager has his moments. Clarke wasn't moaning about refs when his team was winning every week, for example. |

His mask slipped. Aye, his carefully cultivated image of not saying anything to annoy Kilmarnock players and fans has just been exposed. I expect the whole facade to come crumbling down soon anytime soon. |

Feck it - I'll bite - Explain "his mask slipped"? Love how this comes from a Killie fan who have had such football luminaries as Wiliamson,Hunffries,Calderwood and Elbows managing them in the last 20 years or so - That shower of feckers didn't even bother with masks.

Hunffries....how long did that take you to think up? Am I not allowed to be critical of BR? Anyone who watched that cringeworthy documentary he did with Liverpool can see that his persona is an all an act. I'm sorry if supporting another team and us not having great managers such as Macari, Brady, Dr Jo, Barnes et al stops me from commenting on somebody making daft comments. A year ago Rodgers wouldn't have moaned about grass, calling teams 11 firemen. Take a look at his latter months at Liverpool and you'll see comparisons. Edited by Killie1997, 12 May 2018, 10:32 AM.

Rodgers has complained about pitches in Scotland, including our own, since he arrived at Celtic. I don't agree with the firemen comments. I do agree with the moaning about carrots growing their grass long to prevent teams playing a decent passing game, cos I prefer that to hoofball. He's doing a decent job for a manager who has a fake persona. Just glad the players are too stupid to see through it all. Edited by Novelty_Bauble, 12 May 2018, 10:42 AM.
