That was a poor performance again by the Celtic players.
I get the feeling the players are not playing for their manager.
The body language of a few players including Edouard and Forrest would suggest there’s something wrong behind the scenes.
It’s also been highlighted that certain players like Christie, Ajer and Ntcham want to leave the club.
There must be something quite not right because why would so many players want to leave Celtic with the chance to make history of 10 In A Row and 5 trebles in a row.
I wanted Lennon to be manager up until 10 In A Row was secured but a few regulars including Ed.007 predicted Lennon could lose the dressing room due to his marmite character.
Apart from the CL disaster, we have been fortunate to win as many games since the start of the season.
Our luck could run out soon if something isn’t sorted out behind the scenes.

Buzz, we could be in for a tough season. Broony is a legend but he is definitely off the pace. There are definitely a few players who want to leave and I suspect they won't be replaced if they go. Lennon doesn't seem to know how to handle the seemingly obvious cracks that are appearing. HH.

Totally agree, he seems to be out his depth tactically and has no idea what his best team is. Added to that our Captain's impact is waning and a few players are giving less than 100%, including Eddie. Something has to change.

We seem to be lacking a spark, it's not so good when Frimpong is our best attacking outlet.
We play a lot of games on tight pitches or even plastic pitches where the opposition sit deep and make things difficult for us, we should be used to it by now yet continually struggle to overcome it.
Whether it's the manager not being popular with the players or the players not understanding the manager's tactics the people above Lennon need to find out what's going on and do something to sort it out
I'm delighted with the result but I don't want to wait for a really damaging defeat before things get sorted out.

Lennon has to get this 4-2-3-1 system out his head. Its ineffective when teams pack midfield and drop back to defend.

Its got to be 3-5-2 or 4-4-2 for me.

We need a more natural lwb and Frimpong should be starting at rwb.

Eddy, Ajer and nitcham and Christie are the same as most professional footballers, they are not nice people, they are in it for money.10 in a row means nothing to them, they have been agitating all summer with the exception of eddy who has behaved better than the others but has downed tools on the park.
That’s what is at the core of the problem and the manager has had to deal with that.
Christie’s father has been touting him around since June, Ajer has an agent who is a piece of s—-, nitcham wants to go back to France.
The real Celtic people in the squad will win the 10 for Celtic.
It’s not the manager we should be looking at but these prima donnas who are contributing nothing to Celtic. Sell them, get them out, they are rotten apples and the committed players are being dragged down by this.

We could play a 4-4-2 Phil if Broony isn’t in the midfield.
I think playing 3-5-2 against good tactical teams is asking for trouble.

Buzz I was very vocal about not bringing Lenny in full time and it was frowned upon on here and I'm yet to be convinced I was wrong we probably will go on to win the 10 but that is just papering over the cracks and allowing the board to justify their actions now I fully understand were a very well run club but we have no real ambition and for that reason I think we need a real clear out right from the too.

Buzz your right regards Broony and 4-4-2. definitely need to play 2 upfront.
