Prestigious Europa League 2017/2018

Michael Keane is a pauper’s John Stones .

Lost all momentum again

Lyon are way better .

Marseille fans react to Evra kicking one of them in the head before the game in Portugal the other night.

Celtic can get one of the following in the draw today at 12.30pm:

Atletico Madrid
Arsenal
Zenit
Villarreal
Dynamo Kiev
Athletic Bilbao
RB Salzburg
CSKA Moscow
Lazio
Sporting Lisbon or whatever they’re called now
Milan
Braga
Plzen
Lokomotiv Moscow
Atalanta
RB Leipzig

A lot of tough enough draws there mate.

Yeah, Celtic have regressed this season too despite coming third in the group. Now think a couple of signings are needed in January to make any impression - before I thought they were set to have a decent run without any additions.

Struggle to beat any of them I’d say

Ye might be best off getting Lazio or Atletico as they probably won’t be taking it too seriously if their form holds up in their leagues between now and then

celtic have the beating of a few there
the problem celtic have is that from now until feburary they are playing non competitive games
its very difficult for them to be tuned in again and lif to that level

from watching Besiktas a bit in the CL, RB leipzig were really really poor, celtic can get a result against them anyhow

Atletico Madrid - difficult
Arsenal - difficult
Zenit - difficult
Villarreal - difficult
Dynamo Kiev - difficult
Athletic Bilbao - difficult
RB Salzburg - beatable very much so, poor league
CSKA Moscow - meh
Lazio - meh, ciro immobile - actually very difficult
Sporting Lisbon or whatever they’re called now - meh
Milan - meh
Braga meh
Plzen - were very good vs HBS - decent side but beatable
Lokomotiv Moscow - meh
Atalanta - meh
RB Leipzig - beatable

some proper old school european ties here

Napoli v RB Leipzig

Celtic have a decent chance .

That’s a tough tie for Celtic. Zenit will be out of season but will have the benefit of playing some Swedish and Ukrainian sides in La Manga in competitive friendlies while Celtic will be playing dross in Scotland to prepare. That said Rodgers will have to go if Celtic get beaten.
