Rogue Daddy Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Here's my two cents FWIW... what made it difficult for us in the first half was their press. Whenever we had the ball they had 3-4 players swarming around to harry and get the ball back. This leads to panic and poor (hasty) misplaced passes... and Celtic do it very well, they have better players. Inevitably, it leads to them tiring and, in the end, we should have taken something out of the game. My solution (having achieved nothing in the game) would be to put an extra midfielder in there (McEneff or Beni) and have 2 up front (it worked in the first game of the season when it was 1-1 and we were being over-run)... when they're pressing, it would give our players an extra outlet and deprive them of space IMO. And after 45 minutes - and they're knackered - we can go on to win the game! Simples 🙄 I get fans getting a bit frustrated, it seems to be the script this season when we play celtic - but I wouldn't be too harsh on Robbie, he set the team up to go out and have a go at them... how long have we been shouting for that! I do believe, however, we're getting closer to the OF. We are, at the very least, competing and giving them a bloody nose. If we continue on the path we're on, it'll not be too long until we're taking more points off them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazzas right boot Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 (edited) Since it's a topic on Bob. We need to get him and his team on extended contracts. He Enters his last year after the summer. We need to keep him at least for a few seasons so we are stabilised near the top of league, can't be having 1 or 2 good seasons then 5 shit ones- again. He's proven to be a good and consistent manager with an excellent league record. Him leaving any time soon would be the worse thing for the club.

Guest ToqueJambo Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 (edited) 5 hours ago, NextGenerationJambo said: In my original post I quite literally stated that both the old firm teams are clearly better and recognised celtic’s speed and creativity, so I’m not forgetting anything. I also understand why the game played out the way it did and that is because we allowed celtic to dominate us and get a 2 goal lead, essentially killing the game. They may be a better team but they’re hardly bayern munich. Regardless, the better team doesn’t always win - if that was the case the bookies would be bankrupt - and I certainly hope that is not the attitude of the players and coaching staff. Anger and frustration are completely justified emotions after watching us play the exact same way that has failed us time and time again against these better teams. When will we learn? I agree the game was fine margins, which only amplifies the frustration. Exactly, we’ve already beaten them this season and also surrendered a 2-0 lead to them in the cup game. It appears as if we learned nothing from those matches. As I mentioned our issue is clearly a psychological one. The talk off the field does not match the tactics and application on it (not for the first half of most games anyway). Accepting that they are a better team and therefore are somehow more entitled to win these games is not the way to go about breaking the mental block. It’s 11 v 11 and we need to remember that. Our issue is not clearly a psychological one. It is very clearly a "Celtic spend 20m a season more than us one". They have good players and will always have 30min spells (at least) in games when they are very on top. However in games this season we've had spells like that when we've been very on top, which is very encouraging. Put it this way we've given them very hard games over 90 mins. You can't split games into neat chunks of time and say if we'd played the same way in the first 30 mins of the first half as in the first 30 mins of the second half we'd have won. Players tire and teams come back into it. Despite that we've beaten them this season and should have had a draw on Wed. We've competed well across 90 mins with Celtic this whole season (and Rangers for that matter). Even in the league cup game we scored twice - still the only team aside from Bayern Leverkausen to score more than 1 goal at Parkhead that this season I think. We're not going to transform overnight into a team that regularly beats the OF. We do have a good squad and manager. If we had significantly better ones they'd more than likely be at Parhhead right now or we'd never had have a chance of signing them, or they would be targeted by them pretty quickly, which the likes of Beni still might be. That's the reality of it and "mentality" isn't going to change that. Edited January 28, 2022 by ToqueJambo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that mentality or just things clicked into place on the day, we took every chance, etc, etc? That's how games are won. We beat the OF by taking our chances and defending well, getting our fair share of ref decisions and often needing Celtic and Rangers to be off their game. Boyce's penalty goes in and we could even have gone on to win that game - we were on top and had them rattled. The encouraging thing this season is I've come away from very defeat off the OF feeling we could easily have won, apart from the LC game.

Folk asking why we can't play like the 2nd half in the first half, well the answer is the same reason celtic didn't play the same in the second half as the first. There are two teams, which far too many seem to ignore. They over powered us with their speed, awareness and quality. It's that simple. Finally, someone who gets it.

Should they think that or just concede in their thinking right now because we’ve got better resources? And nutters? Calm yerself. . but it's about being pragmatic and realistic. basically, when you're paying millions more for a player, what you're buying is the consistency and higher probability that a player will shoot, pass, tackle or move more accurately, more often. You're getting a player who can do that stuff 19 times out of 20 (celtic) pay less money and you have players who do it 14, 15 times out of 20 (us). what we have to do to beat celtic is hope the probabilities fall in our favour in key game moments. They did for Boyce's goal....but not for the pen. The odds are stacked against us, hence the regular defeats, but once in a while we win.

Ofc they should think that, but if they don't win they shouldn't cry about and talk nonsense about how if they pressed us, different mindset etc it would have been different and start slavering about thier manager.

The standard of player, their parent or previous club. How that player is viewed by their peers , how they fit with our plans. That is crucial when paying higher sums, we will upgrade that level again in the summer pre season. That seems to be the way it is going, players coming in who are a higher level of talent with the salary to match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers have just stolen our best defender for peanuts (or nothing) and got a £19m pound player on loan and sold a guy that played a handful of games for over £10m These arseholes should be hammering us, thankfully football isn't played on a spreadsheet and although we have built a good team and can compete with them the magnitude of the financal gulf will dictate results over a season.

Watt-Zeefuik Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 4 hours ago, Bazzas right boot said: Makes sense. Our players weren't at it the first half, basic control, Composure and passing escaped many for a bit. However, Celtic are a good team, too many on here think press and run about is the tactic that wins every game. It doesn't. Even in the first half, Gordon was relatively Quiet and only well hit shot / mistake and an offside goal was the difference. We weren't ripped to bits or carved open often, if at all. In the second half Gordon was busier in the first ten minutes than he'd been in the whole first half. After that we dictated the play. Folk thinking if we pressed from the start we were quids in are off on one. In general I am very much on your side of the debate—when you play a team with much greater resources such as us vs. the OF, if you want to try to win, you pick a gambit and hope it pays off. If it doesn't, you get spit roasted. That said, I do think Robbie wanted a Hodgson-style "bars of four" with a high line, and couldn't get his players to move up far enough. I think if we'd managed to get that in a bit earlier, it might have stopped the bleeding. Of course the downside is it risks route one passes over the back line for speedy strikers to run onto but it might have solved our possession issues in the first half a bit more. In the end I think our biggest problems in the first half were that Cochrane was lost at sea, McKay got flustered, Smith was just overpowered athletically (and then Akka understandably wasn't up to game speed), and Haring went missing when we had the ball. When that many parts of your outfield crumple, you're in for a ragdolling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on, had we actually turned up we’d have comfortably dispatched them because we’re a better side with more money & a better squad. We had an absolute shocker & they punished us. Celtic & Rangers aren’t unbeatable (nobody is) but saying player quality & budget isn’t a factor is delusional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tazio Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) He just can’t win. A player made a mistake today and someone near me shouted out “FFS Neilson, that’s shit” as if it was his fault.

Ked Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Are these threads still a thing. BRB is desperate for them admittedly. But the majority of us are happy enough no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who went to Motherwell away saw us overrun in midfield. Today RN made sure that would happen again and got the result. Yep. I was there. We are lucky to have him that’s for sure Edited January 30, 2022 by 1971fozzy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
