Novo has shown more in 2 games than Sionko in all the games he played. I agree he must be given a chance on sunday.
-
What was that jumping into le Guen's arms? A bit of Arse licking out of the top drawer that was!
-
I agree with Elderslie, Klos was a great shot stopper, but a nightmare at cross balls and deadball situations. His kicking did indeed also leave a lot to be desired. I would however prefer him to Letizi at this moment but would put McGregor in the goal first.
-
Waterreus unfair, certainly no dumpling. He was a exellent keeper and rightly kept Klos out of the team.

I think you are getting carried away with that one Ian.

Michael Ball. Now, there's a surprise.
pete replied to elderslieblue's topic in General Football Chat
Different styles between Hiddink and koeman. Koeman wants the backs attacking and Hiddink wanted a back 3 with a sweeper. The sweeper became an extra midfielder when PSV had the ball. Ball fits in well only in defence. If he crosses the centre-line he gets a nose bleed -
I must agree i thought before tonight that Adam couldn't hit a barn door holding it by the handle, but i was glad to see this one hitting the back of the net.

Chelsea were 180 million in the red,at the last count. If Abramovich loves Chelsea so much why does he not clear that debt. If he walks away Chelsea will not recover and be the English Third Lanark.

I would make that the end of the season. If he has turned things round and an improvement is visable that gives us hope for next season then i will rest a little easier. He certainly isn't filling me with confidence at the moment. I don't know what he is at the moment a good disciplinarian or a bullheaded arrogant man. I am starting to wonder if he has\or can have the players on his side at the moment. I have faith in him but i must admit there are a few seeds of doubt starting appear. Oh ye of little faith!

"You'll Never Walk Alone" - why do Celtic sing it?
pete replied to ascender's topic in General Football Chat
FC Twente also sing it as the game is starting but they also seem to have a bond with Celtic as many supporters wear Celtic tops. Here is another point worth discussing. I like the song sung by Gerry and the pacemakers and Written by Rogers and Hammerstein for the 1945 Broadway musical 'Carousel', Should i hate it just because the tims sing it? I don't, if it comes on the radio i sing it at full volume. I won't let the tims rob me of a song i really like. -
If i remember right he ripped Hearts apart as well in the good period.
-
The tims had a brazilian and he was scheidt.
-
Wawh! No keeper thats new, what do we do with a shot on goal. The important thing is movement off the ball and the tempo you play at, not the formation. You can put 11 dustbins in any formation you want, but if they don't move then they won't win. That is the biggest let down for me, our movement off the ball has been atrocius in the games i have seen. I thought le Guen would bring in the touch and move football instead it seems like a lumberjacks waltz.
-
Clement is just 21 i believe, so maybe he will improve enough for us not to need or want Rino back in 2 years. Just a thought. I would love to have him back at this moment though.
-
Agree in general but i would make it. ______________Clement____________ ____Fergie______________________Hemdani
-
As far as i know Clement should return at the weekend. Livorno was just too early for him.We seemed to be playing better football with Clement and Hemdani in the midfield. After injuries are cleared up Burke, Clement, Hemdani and Rae appeal to me. Could we think of moving Barry to LH or RH? Maybe on Sunday, Novo, Clement Hemdani and Fergie. Fergie, Clement Hemdani,Adam\ Rae Is that too many riches in one team? Any opinions?
-
Murray is obviously only interested in selling up now, which will mean a tight budget aimed at keeping his share price high. I don't see any improvement as in cash coming from that area. Hopefully if we can get to xmas in europe it may give le Guen 1or 2 million for new players. What do you get for 1 or 2 mill? Probably more mediocrity, unless you can strike gold with a young upcoming player. Le Guen does need more time, to call him a failure after 10 games is crazy. Good players turn bad through a lack of confidence and i feel we just need a good run to get the confidence levels up. Maybe PLG iisn't really helping on that part with all his chopping and changing. Fergie i don't rate him, never did and possibly never will but maybe i have been spoiled by watching Cruiff, Rijkaard, wouters, Sneijder and many others week in week out.
-
Welcome mate i hope you enjoy.
-
No use in if's and buts, he is now doing well with Blackburn and probably wouldn't have come back to play for le Guen anyway. Eck treated him wrong by playing Moore, after slating Moore in the papers and stripping him of the captaincy. That was the end of Zurab and my support for Eck.
-
I would be very disappointed if the ref gave an offside decision like that against Rangers so i must say no. He is not offside in the first phase because it was a shot on goal and letizi playing the ball back also makes him onside in the second phase. For me the ref got it right.

Were you dressed like a terrorist today Del.
-
Have we had 3 goals in 9 hours?
-
Yeh i am really happy we got that huge investment that he was on about all last year. The rewards are blinding. Well, i can't see them anyway!
-
I agree with that. We have them here and the Police use it for a nice way to fill the koffers. If you are not carrying it, you get fined. In the beginning they were stopping women out shopping and fining them for not carrying them. Now i believe they have to have a reason to ask you to produce it but that is found easily enough.

I still think he should have waited for a bigger fish. Going further into the season better teams would have become available for him.
