We were in a European final less than 20 years ago mate so you may wish to adjust your timeline a little and I wonder if Peps Barca thought the same when they came here in 2012? It’s not as if they weren’t arguable the greatest football side ever assembled was it? Football doesn’t work the way you describe hence why we love it, we also love it for heads gone moments like the one I’ve just quoted

Exactly as planned? You think it was part of the plan to concede some of the chances they did or that it should take up to 60 minutes to get on top? I’m not convined

What’s pathetic is your obsession with Celtic mate, it’s unhealthy. But if you think if Celtic had scored one of the Abada, GG, McGregor or Maeda chances that we probably should have that we couldn’t have taken something from the game then you haven’t been paying attention. It’s not like we haven’t done it before is it?

I know I give you this feedback quite regularly but you don’t half don’t shite and try way too hard Real Madrid will beat many teams by much more than this, they will beat many teams in the 1st half alone and will play many games where they concede few chances never mind concede chances where it was easier to score than not. Your entire existence on this forum seems to be centred around a dislike for Celtic, it’s mildly amusing

Congratulate us when we go through

No matter your opinion we were in that game for 60 mins with a chance of taking something. This game was over in 20. Not really comparable performances irrespective of score

Expect a bit of rotation however at home we should be too strong 3-0

Do they write them a post match script also or do some mission impossible style tomfoolery?

Was the Ajax manager or players admitting that the first 20 or so minutes of the game they were just trying to survive?

And the cry was we surrender

4-0 Aberdeen

Klopp getting the chop in the morning!

Big if, Leicester are howling

Gio under pressure here? 5 points behind in the league in the 1st week in September and back to back 4-0’s

VAR doing it’s job well

Confident for Saturday then?

And so insightful, makes you wonder why their teams don’t take so many more points off us by changing their normal approach

Our normal game saw us almost take the lead several times. We had the better chances in the first half and Maeda missed an absolute sitter. Changing our game may have saw us create f**k all and get battered anyway which is what used to happen with Brendan Rodgers. So nah I’m glad we had a go, nothing ventured and all that

Its both

Like it or not football is a pyramid system at every level and unless you change the system at Uefa level and implement all of these suggestions such as revenue sharing, salary caps, limits on foreigners then it’s just blue sky thinking. We aren’t going to be getting a cut of Real Madrids revenues, we aren’t going to be given a handout by PSG, Man City aren’t going to reduce their salaries to make it fairer for us so the option presented with us is a singular one and that is use the resources at our disposal and try get better. Thats the reality and it’s the one I’ll face into with optimism. You won’t hear me say it’s pointless or meaningless or that we should just start playing our reserves

We are showing ambition hence the investment in our squad this season but Rome wasn’t built in a day

You say they like I have any control or say in where we play Difference is I’m not going to bitch and moan about finances because there are parts of our performance last night which were good and if we were more clinical then getting a result may have been a possibility. Glass half full mate
