Ross County v Celtic - Saturday 12 September, Kick-off 3pm. (live on Ross County PPV) - all comments here

We won 5 nil and I’m still no happy.....I just feel the balance of the team isn’t right.....I truly don’t feel Ntcham and Broonie can play effectively in the same team.....Calmac isn’t the same player imo in this set up...
Left sided centre half and left wing back and we'll be flying. Ntcham will be gone over the next few weeks, Turnbull will start to play more one he's settled in.
 
Great result and great to see the new bhoys get on the scoresheet as well. We were looking pretty devastating going forward today and it could've been more goals still that said we were lucky at times not to concede Barkas made some fine saves and we had the post to thank as well. They'd never have come back into the game but they often get their token goal so a clean sheet and 5 nil away from home . Ajer struggles on that left side of the 3 at times and we had some dodgy moments still cant take away from the result and performance I also fear for Griffiths now when we have all 3 strikers scoring for fun .
 
Great result but a patchy performance imo.

Positives......5 goals coming from 5 different players. All 3 of our strikers get on the score sheet. 3 goals in 3 games for the Yeti. Duffy scores on his debut. Barkas made some great saves. Turnbull and Soro get a run out.

Negatives......This 3 at the back still looks like it has disaster written all over it. We still look too clunky and unbalanced for the most part meaning we're only seeing flashes of that quick and slick football we know these bhoys are capable of. Certain players lack of movement off the ball means others are having to take extra touches before finding a pass and it's blunting any attempt to attack with a bit of pace and purpose. Crossing into the box (including from corners) still nowhere near good enough.

Love having the 2 strikers up top again, that for me is a must for Celtic in the SPFL but this 3 at the back is going to cost us against better opposition especially when it includes Ajer on the left of it and no proper wing backs adding cover on the flanks. Every team we've played so far has zeroed in on it's weaknesses, truth be told it's been shambolic at times and even the poorer teams have managed to cause it problems. Get it sorted with the right personnel or get it to fuck because it's only a matter of time before a half decent side capitalises on it's flaws!
