Celtc never put their feet up. 

 

Something we should learn from

And, BTW, it beggars believe that people lay into Gio and "his tactics" when it is essentially the same formation and personal we had for months and years under SG. It is not the manager`s fault if people crawl into their shell out on the pitch or single-handedly throw games away.

 

it is Gio's tactics though. The fact that it is the same personnel doesnt mean we are playing the same way. He is keeping the fullbacks back and not pressing teams the way we did under Gerrard. Under Gerrard we had a great defensive record by pressing high up the pitch and keeping opponents away from our goal. Also the fullbacks overlapping with the wingers caused opposition defenders problems. Kent and Diallo were pretty ineffective last night and I think would be better with the support of  a running fullback. Also Kamara, Aribo and Arfield is too lightweight a midfield. We really need a Davis, Jack or even Lundstram in there to do the ball winning. In the second half when we let Tav forward more and got bodies up the field we dominated possesion albeit the game was over

Was thinking the same thing.

 

Someone should explain to Kamara, Barisic et al that you get to put your feet up at the end of the season.

Or change the tactics

4-3-3 was madness last night

That exact thing was said clearly enough on this forum after the Aberdeen game and again before last night's debacle but (I feel) there are some individual players for whom, on current form, it wouldn't matter what formation was fielded.

Do we need to have the winger conversation again?

 

Really?

They did.  The second half was an absolute embarrassment - they didn't try an inch and didn't have to either because we were so poor.

Ryan Jack was the positive for me. If he is fit enough to play for the rest of the season and if Ramsey is too then that could be huge for us.

It isn't much of a consolation but Ryan Jack. He was pulling us back into single handedly and was inches away from scoring a worldie. He had no help at all from the attacking players.

Agreed.  Despite Celtic tiring and allowing us more possession/territory he and Balogun's presence did contribute to more comfort on and off the ball.

 

They should be the first names on the team sheet for Sunday.

I would prefer we ease Jack into the team, gently.
