Champions League Matchday 4

Sport

@Rocko, I’m hearing a 3-box-3 / 3-5-1-1 for Celtic tonight. I have a very very very good feeling about the match but I might have egg on my face afterwards. Time to put in a serious home performance against top quality opposition in Europe after a few damp squibs - PSG in Matchday 1 along with Barca and Borussia Monchengladbach last season - and I think a back three with a packed midfield is the best way to go about it.

Gordon;
Lustig, Boyata, Bitton;
Forrest, Brown, McGregor, Tierney;
—> Armstrong, Sinclair <—;
Dembélé.

Commentator’s eye. Those eleven (11) players start but it could be anything from the 3-4-3 or 3-5-1-1 I mooted earlier to a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1.

I’ve backed Celtic and over 2.5 goals at 10/1 tonight.

Keep The Faith

We need to show some intent and aggression tonight. A lot of “we have to believe we can compete” talk ahead of and after the games against the elite coterie of super franchises so far. Seemed like we were trying to convince ourselves at times. Need to go out and do it - display that belief rather than talking about having to have it.

FFS sake. Talk about picking your poison.

That tit Rob MacLean on main commentary on BT and that doughnut Keith Andrews on co-commentary eir sport.

Unreal!

Robben enjoyed that, as did Rafinha.

3-box-3, bhoys. But McGregor (right) and SInclair (left) are in front of Brown and Armstrong.

Roma one up

9

Armstrong misses a sitter.

10

Celtic playing really really well so far. Wonderful atmosphere too.

11

United miss a dodgy penalty

12

A cracker

13

Forrest has let Coman away twice in last few minutes. Needs to track back better than that.

14

FFS sake.

15

Ah that’s a fucking shambles. Boyata and Gordon horrible there. Gordon making fuck all effort to get back too

16

That’s a scandalous goal to give away.

Separate to that, Sinclair needs to really up it. He’s not effecting the game in any way. Not showing for it much at all.

17

Fuck that would have been some goal

18

Great football. Nice corner routine too. Alaba excellent defensively x2.

19

Forrest playing very well tonight.

Celtic battering Bayern. Tierney is outstanding.
