their defence is there for the taking but our midfield and defence can't match their attack

Celtic know the best form of defence is attack because their defence is poor. our defence is poor and attack isn't as strong so we are caught not going for it and holding back. Until we have players and a change of tactics/pace/ philosophy I can't see how we'll take anything off Celtic.

Warburton first half hour of semi showed how you play Celtic, attack, pace and movement.
 
Our defence was poor because Roberts was given free reign by Hodson. On the other side Sinclair didn't do much, Tav had him sorted with Candeias. Our first choice defence would have done much better. Attack wise Morelos is a decent player that will improve further. Candeias is a decent player, Dorans playing to deep for me, we need a wee change of shape and get him involved much further up the park. Windass started well and just needs to find some consistency, there is a player in there just needs to do it more regularly and for all the game.

We need another quality midfielder, left winger as priorities in January.
 
There were huge gaps, if Pena was more alert and faster to react we could have been in a fair amount of times.

Better defending and better decision making would give us a chance.
 
Pena was slow time he took to get the ball under control they were 2 of them on top of him, we have nobody in midfield who can make the killer pass.
 
Their defence is pretty average. Ours is a fucking disaster. We had no answer whatsoever to their wingers. Cardoso cannot defend against someone running at him directly.
 
No no no we had a makeshift defence today, that said young boy Mcrorie was fantastic again, weak link left back, Tav was being told time and time again to tuck in, some people are expecting way too much from Cordoso, hes a decent player and will prove the doubters wrong im sure of that.

They are sh#t at the back, we just need to believe in ourselves, thats what we are lacking just now, self belief. Have a go at those cunts and they will bottle it, just see some of the periods in the first half, we need to learn to believe and keep it going for 90

Today the turning point was not that disastrous first goal to lose but the Morelos equalising chance, had that gone in then i think the 2nd half would have been the polar opposite of what it was.

No need to be wetting our knickers just now we are moving in the right direction, KEEP Beleieving

Good always triumphs over Evil
