Haven't enjoyed watching Celtic as much in a long while. A joy to watch going forward, but VERY dodgy at the back. Denayer looks suspect, a few bombscare moments and all his best moments have been on his arse when he lunges into last gasp challenges. Hope he improves. Hope Deila isn't naive enough to play with this system in Europe, the back 4 need more protection, ie another centre mid. What worries me is he already tried it in Warsaw. But the tempo and fitness have been great so hopefully another few goals to come.
That was a demolition. Can't recall last time Celtic played so well. Kayal was tremendous when he came on, but Izzy was my MoTM, he was outstanding. Like the look of Berget, his link up play is excellent. A happy Tim today.
Repeat that level ofperformance on wed and we should be fine. Outside of the weather, don't have a single complaint today fingers x'd for Forrest

Even the big Clubs have players on loan, i'm happy with what we've got so far. I just hope Tonev is as good as the others. If Forrest is injured again Tonev could be his replacement.
He certainly has the pace Starting to look like the wee man might never find a solution to his hamstring problems I hope I'm wrong.
That was more like it today, looked a totally different team than the one that offered nothing against Liega. Dundee United defending was woeful and the game was over very early as a result so dont want to get too carried away, but that should be a good confidence booster for everyone. Izzaguire was excellent, we all know what he can do so lets hope he keeps it up. Mcgregor looks half decent but far from the finished article. Stokes and The Thumb are not good enough, they will get goals in Scotland but we need better quality up front. Kayal was good bar a couple of poor passes but id like to see him stop turning back every time he receives the ball, he looked good the few times he ran at them, need more of that. I thought the boy from Man City looked to have some potential, give him the benefit of the doubt that it was nerves early on, he grew as the game went on and looks a decent squad player for the season. We will need to be tighter at the back during the week but much more confident than I was before the game.
I take Mulgrew was winding Stokes up claiming the fourth goal , the press have now credited Stokes with the goal .great performance thought Berget maybe edged man of the match
