This has been a brilliant strange game! Fully expecting us to concede one here towards the end just to make things difficult!

Well, according to Wilshere himself those injury stats are incorrect. May 31, 2020 to now is just over 4 months - Wilshere says he has been fully fit for 8 months.
They probably aren't entirely accurate, but you just need to look at the list to realise he's way too fragile. I can't see how we'd afford his wages and also be prepared to take on the risk unless we got him on a pay per play deal, but given our past with those I can't see that happening either.

I can’t believe we would sign him, he’ll end up spending more time with the doctors than on the pitch.

What's with this latest craze in the media of misers telling people not to celebrate? It's the whole point of football ya mopey fuds.

Great draw for us I think, all tough games but all winnable.
Saw Celtic's draw, oooffff! Top seeds as well haha!

YES MAN!
Gerrard is the man! Brilliant from the team, Tav is godlike.

Could feel them scoring for the last 20 mins.
Itten done more than Morelos in 5 mins!

We've looked great although to be fair to Hamilton they've picked up the last five mins.
iI don't want to be a Barker boo boy but nothing is coming off for him. He's trying so hard and it's painful to watch.

I mean if it's 20m that's pretty good I'd say.

I think at this point we need to get him sold ASAP and maximise the potential fee. I'm a bit concerned we don't have the bargaining power we once did with him after he was dropped.

Surprised by Barker, if he can keep improving like this then I’ll happily eat my words.

It's alright saying shoot from distance but even the it will be like pinball bouncing off the sardine defence and only luck getting on target.
Set pieces looked our best chance but we were denied by poor refereeing and cute defending.
I think that's the point though, the game was so stale and stagnant that it needed shots from distance or crosses to inject that piece of randomness. You can call it luck but really what it is is creating uncertainty for Livingston in their box.

What would yo prefer: a top class player that's not doing what you want them to do, or a below average player that is doing what you want them to do?
Hmm, I'm not sure there is an answer there. Neither was effective.
My point about Barker is that he's looked a mile off what's required any time he's been used, but he's still getting decent opportunities.

To be fair he showed more in his cameo than Hagi, Arfield and others showed.
You're not wrong, but I feel that's more of a damning indictment of Hagi and Arfield's game rather than any positive indication that Barker is a suitable player for us.
What do they call that, damning with faint praise?

I think, like most, I'm also scratching my head at Barker still getting opportunities. He must be great in training or something because I just don't see what he brings to our team, unfortunately.

Actually I think Jack is quicker on the ball than Kamara and has a better reading of the game. That’s just my feeling. I don’t think Jack has been brilliant either though, but the delay in passing is something that permeates the whole squad. Perhaps with the exception of Ryan Kent, who has another infuriating tendency to cut inside not matter which wing he’s on and over-running the ball.

Kamara is just too slow. There was a point where he was on the left wing with Borna infront of him ready to run on, and he just hesitates for half a second before passing by which point the moment has gone - that half a second is what lets Borna get forward and put a cross in. We are always wasting half a second before passing, all over the park, but Kamara is particularly guilty of it. It's extremely frustrating. Passing to feet slowly isn't going to break anyone down.

It's kind of disappointing that we are squandering this opportunity to put pressure on Celtic so early. In fact it's very disappointing but it feels very inevitable.

Sitter missed by Morelos, can't afford that this match.

I have to say, I just do not see what most like about Kamara. He seem's slow and wasteful to me. It's not that he's terrible, but he just seems average and I feel like we could do much better.
I realise I am most likely in the wrong here as this opinion seems to be against the main.

I don't disagree with we're not getting close enough to their box to test that. Too many balls being played from deep and when we do get wide, we tend to turn back too easily.
I've been very disappointed in Hagi and Kent who want to drop deep too often and then give the ball away when under any sort of pressure.
Hagi has been very disappointing. He's clearly a talented lad but absolutely nothing is coming off for him.
In saying that, at least he has put pressure on the opposition after goving away the ball, he's trying but it's just not working.

Sometimes I feel like the players won't take responsibility for taking a shot. Surely that's what we need here? We need rebounds and scrappiness around their box, are we really going to pass our way through this? Or we need good old crosses and someone like Roofe in the pitch.

There is definitely space for games, how many did we play in 10 days on the run up to the UEFA cup final?

If he's been training with the squad then they are at risk. Doesn't matter that he returned a negative, he probably wouldn't test positive in the early stages if he's caught it. I can't see how the authorities don't come down on Celtic like a tonne of bricks after what Aberdeen players did. At the end of the day he's broken the quarantine laws in the UK, it seems to be a worse crime than the Aberdeen players.
Christ footballers can be daft.

Wow, that was brilliant! But it was almost like we didn't even get fully up to speed! With a front three a bit more up to speed that could have been a massacre.
