Vilareal and Maccabi Tel Aviv suspended till at least 9pm due to a deluge in Spain
Jesus that was poor. Bitton not great again.
Woeful 3 minutes from Celtic.
Alan Thompson is insufferable on co-commentary. But thatās the least of my concerns for now.
Itās on Virgin Media 2 as well. Donāt think itās Alan Thompson on Co-Com there.
Iāve Alan Stubbs on BT. Is that who youāre on about ?
Yes, thatās a scouse accent on reflection rather than a geordie one.
Insufferable is a fair description
Heās meant to make snappy interjections but heās waffling on for ages.
That was very unlucky. Fantastic pass by Christie and a great run by Elyounoussi.
Some ball by Christie there.
Shut the fuck up Stubbsy
Jesus christ
Duffy is out of his depth.
Fucking hell
McGregor was poor there too .
That 17 year old lad terrorising Duffy looks like a right good player.
Thatās an awful half.
Frimpong has been good. Laxalt decent. Centre backs are rotten. Midfield useless. No control of the game at all. Nothing from Brown when weāre struggling. McGregor should be taking control but heās too passive. Rogic getting pushed off it too easily. Elyounoussi very hit and miss. Good pass from Christie but wasteful otherwise. Edouard taking far too much out of it.
Second goal from Christie losing it poorly. Frimpong probably pissed off at that after heād gone ahead but he took an age coming back. No shape at all in our midfield and defenders coming back just like Milan at home.
Time to address Edouard too. He looks like he needs someone beside him. But we cant afford to so that. The whole 3-5-2 was to accommodate that and it really didnāt work at the back or up front.
Yeah I donāt think the front four have been great individually or collectively, but the two centre backs and the two holding midfield players are a bit all over the place alright. Thereās a lack of mobility there too, we look very open and slow when they break. Agreed that was weak by Christie for the second goal, he seemed to try to take the ball across his opponent but wasnāt strong enough to get in front of him. McGregor then sold himself at the end of the move, but there were other chances to stop it. The start to the game had been fairly promising too. Iām not ruling out a 3-2 Celtic here yet, although thereās no reason to think the others wonāt be able to score on the counter attack.
Bitton should have blocked the cross. Brown should have headed it wide instead of just behind him. McGregor should have done much better on his challenge.
