See my earlier thread. Defence looked well ropey at times last night.
Of course I'm the same. You can understand why everyone is getting excited and a bit carried away though.
I'm also going to err on the side of caution.
Nevertheless, Celtic have been playing in European competition for fifty years and we have only lost a home game at Celtic Park by two goals on just three occasions. Two of which were against the quality of Barcelona and Arsenal (and even that was under Mowbray). We've never lost a home game by three goals in Europe, to the best of my knowledge either.

I think you are being kind to the defence Izzy
However I don't think they can play that badly again anytime soon.
Although I don't think it will be a stroll next week I am confident that we will progress

Do we play our normal 4-4-2 or a 4-5-1
Don't think we're any good at playing for a 0-0
You guys are thru, Helsingborg couldn't score in a who re house. Embarrassing finishing
Play our normal game FS. Not gung ho or anything, start Forrest aswell, caused them allsorts of problems last night and his pace on the break was killing them
I'd play 4-4-2.
They need to chase the game, so I'd get Forrest and Samaras on either side with Commons playing just off Gary Hooper. If you want to call that a 4-4-1-1 then do so.
Forrest has to start, Commons maybe behind Hooper and Samaras on the left again. Those 3 were key to our attack with Hooper helping the build up.
I'd go for that, and assuming Ledley is injured then just a straight swap for Wanyama.
Henrik thats what id go for. If we setup not lose opposed to playing our normal game i fear the worst. But i think Lennon will go 4411.
Sounds like Ledley's done his groin going into a stupid tackle. Victor in for him next week.
Off topic but noticed Twardzik had a great game for U20 team again last night must be pushing for the odd start in the SPL or cup games
I wouldnt be surprised of Twardzik starts on Saturday....along with Paddy.
I can see Paddy playing too, it'll be a tight game and Lennon will be resting players to make sure we have the best players to choose from as possible in order to see us over the line in the second leg against Helsingborgs.
