Celtic v City post match

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

Thought the first half was the worst defensive display of the season. We really through the game away, then.
We were better second half, but need to be more incisive in front of goal. Sterling superb again.
Overall not a great performance, but a decent result, considering.

Fair result. The fleet st cunts surely are creaming themselves with City not winning.

Clichy poor, Kolarov in their 3rd goal kicked the air, Gundogan and most of ours were gash, Sterling, Zabba and Dinho the best.

On the other hand, this could be a rehearsing for the candlefucks game.

Dinho? He spent more time on his arse than his feet. He was terrible in the first half.

Since when did we become a one man team? Fuckinell the way some are going on about the loss of KDB you'd think we had a team of Carlton Palmers.

Thought we were poor in the main. Sterling was superb. Silva was good. The rest, not so good. Gundogan hasn't impressed really as of yet but I'm sure he will.

Games like that where we miss leadership at the back. Otamendi and Kolarov have been near faultless all season but they are both fairly reactionary and under pressure in and intense atmosphere I think their way of playing sometimes causes a panic which then seems to become contagious.

Fernandinho had a bad game and cost us a few times diving in and missing interceptions. Gundogan was only really noticeable when he lost the ball.

That said, we had enough good moments and chances to score again. Just bad mistakes at the back cost us. Don't particularly remember them having any actual chances bar the goals. Just seemed to be one of those kind of games where every Celtic clearance and punt infield resulted in danger through a combination of luck, Dembele running his arse off and us defending like clowns.

All three of their goals had an element of fortune. One of those days, but we didn't lose, which is important in the context of the group.

THIS ^^^^^

The old Kolorov turned up tonight whole defence was off the pace tonight
Pep should shoulder some of that

Pep calling them Glasgow - can't help but giggle.

Totally agree. Gutted we didn't go on to win, but their crowd really was a 12th man. We'll dick 'em round our gaff.

 

[BL2blue]

Possession 61% to 39%, shots 24 to 9, shots on target 9 to 3 1st goal offside and 2nd a deflection

Yet Celtic were brilliant and we were shit !

 

[We'reNotReallyHere]

Pep gets all the praise for wins he has to stand up and take the blame tonight. Poor performance and horrendous defending all over. A goalie that rarely makes a save into the bargain. We had all summer to get in a couple of decent full backs . We didn't and im afraid it will come back to haunt us. Kompany and stones will be our preferred option in the middle of defence. Fucking hell that was really close to am embarrasing evening. Got to better sunday.

An embarrassing evening? No where close, the defending was poor tonight but we came back three times which takes a bit of fight.

Did you expect us to win every game this season? Draw at Celtic Park isn't a disaster, still look very comfortable in the table.
