DMAA

Yassss!!

Waste of a good attack again from Morelos, shooting when there was no chance of scoring.

Bring on Itten!

Not for me, one of our better players

Hagi making an impact already

Morelos has been rotten. He can’t keep the ball for anything, it’s unbelievable.

That is a bizarre decision, what is going on

Why is Roofe going off!!

Hagi is coming on, yess!

Not for me!

Hagi should be playing. Morelos and Kent have both been so poor. Every single attack breaks down with them. Poor touch, dribbling, passing. I’m so tired of it but it is so predictable. At least Hagi can take the ball in to feet in tight spaces, win free kicks and link with Roofe, Aribo and Kamara. Gerrard should make a sub at half time but he almost never does.

Poor from Balogun again, pretty much a free header there

We look like we are improvising when we go forward

Kamara is brilliant

Morelos again giving it away in a good position

We are really missing Hagi, a player who can take the ball in to feet in tight spaces. We just aren’t getting the ball up the field with Morelos and Kent, they aren’t providing the options and they aren’t keeping it. Kent has had a couple of breakaway runs but he must have given it away about 10 times.

Kent and Morelos both just giving the ball away a lot so far

Stupid from Morelos already

I agree that there is a rationale. Especially with this Celtic line-up, pace may be important. I just see Helander as so good I’d always prefer him.

Athletic yes but not physical, Helander is stronger and much better in duels imo.

It’s a really surprising Celtic line-up. It’s all out attack. One thing that isn’t a surprise is Brown not playing. Anyone who has paid any attention to their games know Soro has put that question beyond doubt, he’s a very good wee player IMO. But most of the rest is surprising, no change from the formation they play at home against wee teams. Frimpong and Laxalt could both easily have been replaced with more conservative players, I thought Taylor would player. Bitton ahead of Duffy is a big surprise for me, going for technique over braun at CB. I was convinced they would have Duffy in for set pieces.

I’m very disappointed Hagi and Helander don’t play tbh. Really hoping Morelos/Kent/Balogun prove me wrong but I’m just a wee bit less confident than I was, pinning my hopes on Roofe now.

You’re more humble than I am ?

Simple solution is Kent, Roofe, Hagi.

Not an unlikely line-up though. Brown and Soro playing together would be much more defensive than the diamond they have been playing, but would be a return to the 4-2-3-1 they have played for years. It would be a bit strange though because it would mean McGregor in the 3 and he hasn’t played that far forward in a while.
