The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

The overrated McGeady is playing shite.

Did you actually watch the match or just post shite?
Fantastic result - team played well, was worried when he put on Brown and took off Fortune (who didn't really shine) t6hought one man up not good, but then Samaras came on. Deserved result and a stinker to come!

Bring it on......

Fortuné looks a poor mans Caleb Folan.
He makes Samaras look a class act.
It's early days yet.

Good to see a lot of the lumping it forward, gone.
A lot of players were rusty, passing sloppy, first touch poor, all as might well be expected.
Though, I thought Fox looks the part.
Looks very steady, with him on one side and Hinkel on the other.
Mobray had the team set up Trap style, 2 holding at CM with 2 wingers, even complete with the dropping back after scoring a goal
But the team came good with a traditional Celtic like grip on proceedings in the last 1/4.

If Moscow had grabbed a late late goal would it have gone into extra time  before away goals counting at the end of all play?

Bellamy doesnt shy away anyway.

Samaras took his goal well.

The game needed to finish 1-0 to Celtic for it to go to extra time. Anything else and the tie would have been over after 90 mins.

Big task ahead in the next round though, but these games will benefit them alot.

Bellamy doesnt shy away anyway.

Neither does Fortuné

Good man Belamy, and fair play to the joker asking him, lol

According to newstalk, there are only 5 teams Celtic can draw in the next round:
Arsenal, Fiorentina, Stuttgart, At Madrid and someone else I can't remember.

Very tough!

Lyon, who I would prob prefer, they ain't the team they were

All in all a good performance, the team seems to be coming together well, early days though

The terrible away record had to end at some point.    However, I cant believe that Moscow team won at Parkhead.

Other positives we can take are that Fox and N'guemo look like good signings while Samaras and Brown look like different players from the ones we had to endure in the Strachan era.

The 2 teams celtic dont want in the next round would have to be Arsenal or Atletico Madrid. I would take Stuttgart or Fiorentina (sure didnt the Huns knock Fiorentina out of Europe in recent times). Even Lyon would have to be considerably weaker in losing Benzema.

Great win 2nite! thought brown was excellent when he came on!

[tyroneStatto]

Seeded Teams:
Arsenal

dont really mind any of them now as long as it isnt Arsenal.
