The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

[tyroneStatto]

Just reading that the guy that scored the hat trick is a part time electrician. Eff me.

[Angelo]

I really don't want to call a fella out but Duffy is awful or made look awful in that Celtic side...totally out of his depth.

the bigger joke is that people were saying it was bad for ireland and that he wouldn't be tested in Scotland. He has been shocking - there's no other way to describe it.

In fairness he has been shocking but he's better than that. Celtics problems are midfield. No steel, poor on the ball and on counter they offer no protection. Duffy can get better. Mcgregor for example can't

Celtic's problem is the manager.

You're watching a well drilled side with an inferior squad against a shambolic side with superior talent tonight.

We've been shambolic all under Lennon, we were a one man band with Edouard last season and when his form fell of a cliff this season we have gone to pieces.

The bottom line is the next job Lennon with be offered will be with a club like Plymouth, Kilmarnock or Leyton Orient. He was never, ever up to the job.

[Sheedy]

That was as poor as it gets for celtic. Embarrassing performance.

I'm sorry but thats nonsense. McGregor has tons of talent - Duffy hasn't.

Nope, he's a donkey. Look at 1st 2 goals tonight for a start. Looks average against average Scottish teams.

[JimStynes]

I think it is time for Lennon to go. I can't see him turning this round and the confidence is at all time low. Rangers will walk the league at this rate. Stevie G is a well improved manager. The rangers team are full of confidence, playing well and very well drilled. And the thing about it is, the Celtic team has twice the stretch in depth that they do and arguably better players. I just can't see how Lennon changes this all of a sudden. It could be too late to turn it around if this goes on any longer. I'm not a Lennon hater like Angelo but I just can't see him turning it around. Which is a shame as he is a local fella and would have been great to see him delivering the 10iar

He's a midfielder that was back trying to cover for 2 centre halves that were posted missing..... again.
There's a load of things wrong at Celtic but he's not one of them. I don't know how this works out in middle of a lockdown but that should be Lennon's last game. He will never turn this around

Agree with that. Angelo has a serious chip. But sadly after tonight there is no coming back. Lennon is a club legend and will always be in my eyes but his position is no longer tenable at the club. I hope the club now act swiftly.

Its not gaa lad with man on man marking. Midfielders are supposed to track back and not dive in like clowns. They are also supposed to keep the ball and create chances, they made zero in 1st half. Duffy has no pace but has lots of other good attributes yet Lennon has his team set up all wrong, trying to pass through teams with players who are not capable of passing. Last 2 goals game from horrendous efforts to pass the ball.

Come on. Look at Duffy for the 3rd. That's nobodies fault only his own. I'm a big ireland fan as well and i honestly thought he was better than this based on his performances for Ireland (i don't watch much english football). I simply didn't realise he was this poor.

As for Lennon he should never have got the job in the first place and the chickens have come home to roost

[Itchy]

I said he was shite tonight lad. No argument from me. But he will come good, others I've named are not able for it.

[marty34]

I agree with Angelo. He has been spot on. Lennon was the cheap option - yes man after Rogers to get Celtic over the line.

Quite a few times last season, especially in Europe, you could he wasn't up to it but Rangers have improved their system and structure this year.

As I stated, Lennon lost the changing room when he called the players out a while back and it's been down hill since then.  He'll always be a Celtic star but not at management.  Most Celtic fans would agree with this.

We all can be parochial about it and cut him slack cause he's from Armagh but, in this year of all years, it's not good enough.

One other issue, a top manager would have "rested" Duffy a few games ago to get his mojo back but Lennon kept playing him and it was clear to see his confidence is getting lower and lower.

Time for Desmond to get the cheque book out.

I don't have a serious chip at all.

I've been right all along and have got nothing but abuse and snide remarks for pointing out a few home truths. He's just not up a job of this magnitude, he should never have got it in the first place and the slow learners are not coming to realise this.

If anything people owe me an apology. We need a manager to come in and hit the ground running now. Someone like Allardyce who is flexible and pragmatic would be by my choice, he has a track record of taking on jobs where teams were in disarray and turning the corner.

[general_lee]

You do have a chip. A Celtic legend and you have already picked his next club ffs. I think even illdecide will have a job on his hands defending Lennon after tonight.

[tyroneStatto]

The only people backing NL after tonight would have to be friends, family or idiots.

[rodney trotter]

His signings haven't been great. In his previous spell VVD, Wanyama, Gary Hooper, Foster, Izaguirre were all good signings.
