Bain looks nervy every time there is a back pass with a hearts player near, we should be busting a gut to chase it down as he looks like he has more mistakes in him. 

Leave that tactic until next week.......give him plenty of time in the 2nd half & hope Lennon did not notice his 1st half display.

 

Pressing all over the park will be important next week.

Really? He’s been rinsed every time? He looks good with the ball but looks nothing in the tackle.

 

Johnston had a good first 15 but he's done very little since. Hickey's hardly getting rinsed either.

Clare just loafs about.

 

Really needs to work harder off the ball.

Don't mind a bit of a luxury player if he actually has some end product but I'm afraid Clare more often than not shows nothing.

 

He will probably score now and everything will be forgotten for another 10 or so shit performances ?

Assist for the goal which is crucial but agreed. Workrate of a wooden leg.

Back 4 Irving and Mulraney all playing well. 

 

Wighton is noticeable but that's as far as I am willing to go. Efforts a minimum

Even tracking back. He gives the ball carrier a headstart, puts in a burst to catch up then slows down again?!?

 

I'd have him nowhere near the team next week tbh.

 

We'll need players who are ready to fight tooth and nail to win. He doesn't fill that category.

Passed the ball well first half. 

 

Pressure Bain and there’s always a mistake there waiting to happen

Exactly, when someone runs past him he just jogs back shaking his head. After a poor start he had a decent run but quickly going back to his early season form. Could be time to see if any teams down south fancy paying a fee for him in the summer as he was supposedly highly rated and just seems to weaken our team.

Best 45 minutes for months. We actually played football!

Was nice of celtic to cut the grass short and heavily water the pitch for our midfielders to play their passing game.

Irvine has been brilliant.

 

Him and Hickey must be under consideration for next week

Hats off to the youngsters - acquitted themselves well in that first half

 

Left back sorted for the future ?

Are you watching the same game? Had a mare in the opening minute but hasn’t done much wrong since. Certainly isn’t getting rinsed every time.

Probably our best first half at Parkhead for years lol.

 

Been impressed by Hickey definately a star in the making.

Hickey and Irving showing up well.

Shaughnessy and Souttar driving forward with the ball from the back.

Only real disappointment has been Clare.

 

First half has given CL some food for thought for starting/bench places next week and that is what he would have wanted.

 

As others have said Berra missing seems to be a bonus so far, but it is a shadow Celtic team our shadow team is up against.

 

We have now put doubt and pressure on Bain for next week.

I'm struggling to think of a Hearts player who ever looked as uninterested than Clare.

 

He reminds me of loads of players growing up that had plenty skill and thought they were too good to do the hard work first.

 

Frustrating player, can’t be bothered with him.

Showed his lack of confidence that he laid it off bit also his ability with the weight of the pass

His assist came from passing the buck. Thankfully ended well. ?

Let's be honest.

He could score 6 and set up 5, and you would still slate him if he misplaced a pass.

Would you play Hickey in the final? Need to go 4 at the back against them and without Shaughnessy. Highly risky, but seems very good.

No chance, not against James Forrest

We probably shaded that half imo.

 

Edit: Nope, according to that daft bint on Sky Celtic have reasserted their dominance.

Good to see players being brave on the ball and not just giving away possession all the time.

 

Great finish by Mulraney!

I can't shake the feeling that he considers us beneath him.

I agree with this. I think he signed for us because we were the ones to take a Chance after his injury. Thinks he is better than he is.

I've been quietly watching him. I've not said a bad word towards him. 

Saying that he's been Excellent is a bit strong IMO

Irving and Hickey have been magnificent. Especially Irving - what a player.

I did a thread about why aren’t we playing Cochrane and posters who know the reserves said Irving has been the better of the two by far this season.

If this is Leveins plan I can buy into it  but please get Clare off, absolute powder puff. Needs the biggest kick up the arse I have ever seen. Clearly a decent footballer in there but no heart or courage so for me get rid.

Utter disgrace having that **** on there

All he can talk about is what "we" did.

Imbecile with no grasp of the english language.
