Awful, awful game and although Wayne Rooney is past his very best - what talent and vision that's left is wasted in that pub managers team. He'd be better off well away from N0-Goodison Park.
Liverpool were in second gear without several stars and lost a great chance of an easy three points - obviously prioritizing the CL.

@Mally was going to post something similar. Mrs T dropped a pin and woke me up.
Also hope that puts to bed these daft rumours about Coleman and Ings coming to Celtic, both slow, ponderous and off the pace.
And it also proves that without Salah, Liverpool are garbage.

Tim ings looked awful clumsy slow and wouldn't get in our team but a quite like young Coleman just back from horrific leg break.

I’d take Seamus Coleman in a heartbeat, along with Jeff Hendricks they are the 2 Rep of Ire players who i’d sign .

George Connelly.

My first time to Celtic Park was to watch the Bhoys play against Ujpest Dosza in the European Cup in October 1972, I had just turned 11 the week before
And was so excited to see my favourite player of all time Jinky.
The team that night was
Williams
Hay
Mcgrain
Connelly
Callaghan
Johnstone
Dalgliesh
Deans
Macari
Hood


Not a bad team for your your first time

Although the hero of the night was Dalgleish
He scored both the Celtic goals that night
I remember on the way home my Uncle John and his mate Frank McLaughlin could stop talking about George Connelly and how he was head and shoulders, they may have used different words, above anyone in the team that night

I think that sums up how good Connelly was when he stood out that night in a great team with great players.

Great post Jimmy. Before my time but enjoy reading up on old players that wore the hoops. Do you or any others have any info on Callaghan? I remember my great uncle talking about how good a player he was but didn't really get the recognition like others.

Have heard loads of people say how good Connolly was and that it was a shame that he retired early from the game.

Unfortunateely, I never had the pleasure of seeing him as I was too young. Only guys I saw from that team were McGrain and Dalglish.
