    I think Celtic can take comfort from the fact that they played quite well last night. Although it has to be said they never looked like scoring. Juventus were clinical and streets ahead of a diddy team romping home in the SPL. It didn't help when yet again their manager was exposed as a clown in picking the obviously knackered Ambrosia. Basic error in management. Hopefully he will learn from this but I doubt it, the man is too arrogant.

    In saying that I still feel Celtic have a chance of going through. If they can keep it tight at the back and set aboot Juve in the second leg, get in their faces so to speak, score an early goal then it will be game on.

    I fancy Celtic to go through on penalty kicks.

    All is not lost.

    Lennon said "Celtic need a miracle". That's OK then, their fans believe in miracles.

    A huge task ahead of us, but we are one of the best 16 teams on the continent.

    I will still hope against hope.

    hmmm, thats a big claim. Im not sure you would be top ten in the premier league tbh. Teams in England defo better than Celtic:

    Man Utd
    Man City
    Spurs
    Chelsea
    Arsenal
    Liverpool
    Everton

    probably better:

    WBA
    Stoke
    Newcastle
    Swansea

    Not much in it:

    Sunderland
    Norwich
    WHU
    Soton


    Add to that - Barca, Real, Valencia, Atletico Madrid, Malaga, Juve, AC, Napoli, Fiorentina, Inter, Ajax, Dortmund, Shalke, Munich, PSG, Lyon, marseille, Anzhi, Porto just to name a few and you really cant say your top 16. Top 50 definitely, maybe scrape top 32

    Who are West Brom playing in the last 16 in the competition to decide the top team in Europe?



    Exactly.


    Man City and Chelsea pfft. They were in the same competition and were pumped out already.

    That is why Leicester are in the last 16 of the Champions league.

    Would you honestly say Nordsjaelland are better than Spurs then? You are in the final 16, well done. But to say you are one of the best 16 teams in europe is so deluded its unreal! Do you honestly think your better than Man CIty who arent in final 16. Are St Mirren one of the two best teams in Scotland as they are in the final of the scottish cup thing. Maybe Celtic should stop being cowardly and work harder to try and be allowed in the EPL like Swansea. Cardiff etc. Rather than getting a bye into the CL with no hope of ever improving

    Well I seem to remember the same criteria being applied to the Irish team in the Euros as "the worst team in the history of the competition" despite playing the two best sides in the competition.

    Can't have it both ways.
