The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

[Itchy]

I don't give them much credit but that's as good a first half of football as you'll see from any team.

Pace purpose and intensity from the 1st minute Rangers haven't a clue what hit them!

Mad how many of the same players couldn't muster the same energy to make history last year.

Same players? A good few new exciting players there. They've been so good going forward that you don't notice defensive weaknesses. Rangers look absolutely shocked and their defending has been brutal, the last goal a particular gem of an example didn't defend the throw or the cross

Great first half. Started brightly but Rangers had a really good spell and some great chances (one gilt edge one). Celtic absorbed this well and what a finish to the half.

Same players? It's a new team playing the Celtic Way.  Nice to see Ange finally let it all hang out.

How much did Hatate cost. Celtic will do well to hold onto him into next season.

A totally different team from last year. Only McGregor and Taylor were involved last year.  The rest were Ange signings .

Don't watch these games too much but thought I'd give it a lash!

Picked over 2,5 over 8 corners and under 6 cards!

1.5 million.

I don't watch too much scottish football. But the energy and intensity of these celtic lads is fantastic to watch. Hatate And O'Riley are some finds.

Snap. Really enjoying watching the pace and intensity. Carving Rangers apart.

Celtic poor in 2nd half, just need someone to start passing the ball and hold possession. Lucky to have not conceded

FFS man. We slaughtered them. 2nd half was a training exercise. Their best chance came with two minutes to go!
O'Reily is a good all rounder, all his stats were apparently best of any midfield player outside of English premier.

Really enjoying watching this Celtic team. Big Ange has done some job of turning around the shambles of last season.

[rodney trotter]

Ange clearly has a good eye for a player. Matt O Riley signed from Mk Dons in League 1 , another very good signing.

Lennon made some awful signings and kept hold of wasters like Leigh Griffits for too long.

The speed of O'Riley's pass on a tight situation is excellent. He set Celtic away several times.  Good tackler as well. The scouting system deserves some credit. They have built a decent team from nothing in a very short space of time with bargain buys.

No I dont agree, they have to learn to get compact and controlled when they ahead. Only Rangers were total muck they should've had a goal or 2 in 2nd half.
