Worst game iv seen Van Dijk have.

Scepovic is behind Guidetti, Stokes and Griffiths in the pecking order. As I've said a few times now he will either be sold or go out on loan in January.

scepovic is for the off.

another without game time. point in that.

Get John Park to fook. Why is he even there.

I loved the way Tonev came on and made an instant impact. Best I've seen from him.

Commons came on and didn't do a thing

Im sure that was griffiths first full 90 mins this season. Biggest game of the season and he does that.

Hate that train to and from Aberdeen, I need to go up for work every so often and always get sat beside some roaster!

Fair enough assessment rnr

Getting through to the next round was the target when we started, performances hopefully will improve but realistically, are we better than say an Everton if we draw them, probably not imo

If we meet a half decent team, we will get pumped. As proved last night.

We concede far too many goals

Can you imagine if Maribor hadn't scored at Parkhead that night? We would have been absolutely roasted in the CL.

Only positive being the money but we never see any of it invested into the team anyway.

McGregor must be sookin Deila's boaby

Scepovic isn't behind Stokes. RD plays Stokes in the AM left position.

For 25 minutes we were terrified of them . Then for 70 minutes we battled and worked and had intensity.

However let's not kids ourselves even without the implosion at the start they were a class above us and we would have been lucky to draw.

EL is our level. I don't think it's theirs.

On another note Johansen impresses me in the AM role with Brown behind him but is no use further back.

Kayal is not the answer but he offers far more than Mulgrew. At least we know he will give 100% and when he does give it away he'll battle to get it back.

We are too exposed at the back, any time who plays on the counter will beat us.

Crying out for a decent defensive midfielder

Scepovic isn't behind Stokes. RD plays Stokes in the AM left position.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
If Guidetti is unavailable we play Griffiths, this was proven last night. I believe if Griffiths was also unavailable we would play Stokes up front.

Scepovic is very much on the margins and may not even be on the bench at the weekend.

We are crying out for Ki Sung Yeung in that role

Biton should be given a chance in there too. Mulgrew will no doubt keep his place in there for Sunday though.

I would go 4-4-2 on Sunday.

It's criminal that we are being exposed at the back though when we are playing with one striker

Salzburg played some delightful stuff

Sunday for me is just as important, fcking hate Hearts and as an Edinburgh based fan love it when we ram it up them, Biton or Kayal should be in before Pirlo Mulgrew, not hating on chuck but he just too slow for there

Smid - Correct

Totally agree on everything really in your OP RnR

How good was the blonde fella in midfield for them ? He had everything , pace , skill , vision and a fair bit of dig - he was nicely complimented by the guy alongside him , who just sat back, intercepted things and played it tidely

Tonev - great cameo , if that was the first time i had seen him in a celtic shirt i would be creaming my undercrackers - clearly has talent and pace

I think our first team line cost up

No Forrest was criminal - especially after his display on saturday
Mulgrew - playing him was criminal - especially after his display on saturday

The scepovic thing is a bit baffling

I think most on here have liked what they seen in him early doors -cant get my head around why he wont let this guy get some game time and a much needed goal

Smid All very strange tbh. Beginning to believe the rumours his missus hates it here and it's somehow affected Scep coming into training etc every day and performing.

CT Kampl, he's got a buy out clause of 10m euro and is for the offski in January. They have some smashing players and a very good team and play in an awful league, some of the players like Soriano must be getting paid well. Alan was class too.

McGregor btw, what does he offer? Feel bad getting on his back but he was dreadful again last night, need to be honest here.

RnR he was superb all night , any ideas whos likely to sign him ?

See even looking at their market value on this website

http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/red-bull-salzburg/startseite/verein/409

they have the right balance of good players in good positions

Look at it

two guys upfront worth £5M , they two midfielders worth £7m
and the centre backs £5M and £2.5 M

they look like they have focused the team in the right areas - get a solid core and you'll have a very capable team
