[0762]

Clearly a consistent problem for Celtic and definitely looks like some players "taking the piss" - too regular an event, Edouard again scorns opps to score "comfort goals", Griffiths arrives late in the match again to try to change a "flat" team performance. The whole scenario "sucks" from the point of view of many critical Celtic fans and ultimately Lennon can be "sent on his way" as it becomes clear that their "crash out" in the past couple of months has rendered any hope of 10-in-a-row to be well nigh impossible. Any match after a Euro footie commitment is clearly too demanding for certain Celtic players while other players are just not good enough to either score goals or even create scoring opps - a shambles! I think this match finally exposed a few "home truths" - this league match was clearly important, far more important than Thursday's Euro match in Milan and maybe Lennon should've acknowledged that priority by fielding a highly defensive but deliberate weak side in order to focus on positive league results. He didn't do that and seems to be oblivious to this regular failing and how to tackle it properly! If one scrutinises the loss of points over the past couple of months, note they would be closer to Rangers lofty position by gaining lost points from these post Europa League Scot Prem fixtures alone. He has learnt nothing and he still has one more Europa League fixture to complete - if he is still kept in place as the Celtic manager btw!!
