Had to wait until 11 pm UK time to watch the game, thanks EUFAIt amazes me the amount of differing opinions on the same game.
I think ajeti is doin well with the opportunity he's got. Some claiming he scored with his nose. I don't care if he used his tool, he got himself in the position which is the sign of a good striker. He also didn't shite out of the tackle that won the penallty. While there's no disputing ralstons heart, but he was caught out of position for two possibly three of their goals. Ange is too slow to think on his feet. He needs to make subs sooner and I'm not just talkin about tonight. Apart from that........

It took jock more than two months to build his te
We only missed Callum. One player. Jota more than covered the absent Abadas position. IMHO Welsh should have played and Starfelt dropped.
Mistakes were made tonight, before the game.
That's big game test No 4 that Ange has failed. But hey, we'll hammer Livi 4-0 at the weekend, an everyone will be happy.
I would love for the guy to turn things round Docco. Looking at his physical condition it's easy to see he's put in the work. Stop scorer ? Let's wait and see. As someone else said.....it's a funny old game.Ajeti is the new Brian McLair
Where are all the Fuds who said he wouldn't touch a ball??
He will be our top scorer this year
Them being able to use all 5 subs was to their advantage. They could take tired players, players on a yellow off, give others some game time, Ange looks at his bench and there are no options to change the game. He brings on Defensive Midfielder for Defensive Midfielder because Soro was a red card waiting to happen. Other than McCarthy Welsh was the only other he could have trusted to come on and as we were chasing the game he isn't really an option to change the game.We missed Calmac. That's for certain. Makes you wonder how we'd manage if he had a long term lay off?
Ajeti more than compensated for the loss of Kyogo, as did Jota for Abada.
Betis stepped up a gear after we went 2 up. One of their players is 40 btw.
Their left winger ran riot all night, an we let him.
Sure we got one back after they used all their subs.
I think the 5 subs should be recalled I get why it was introduced but teams with bigger pockets have a far bigger advantage than others 5 subs is replacing half the outfield playing team not right imoThem being able to use all 5 subs was to their advantage.

They are a very good team with some exceptionally good players, they were always going to dominate periods of the game. The fact we actually gave them a game with half a dozen starters missing showed, to me anyway, Ange has a system that in time will work, but only when he is backed and given a strong enough squad to compete.
We have a board who only want to participate in Europe, we have a manager who wants to compete.
I openly admit I’m not interested in any other team that doesn’t play in green and white hoopsI see bellshill bhoy is smashing the euros again, somewhere around the arse end of the table
That's a better excuse than ,,,well,,,,yer just shite at itI openly admit I’m not interested in any other team that doesn’t play in green and white hoops
We should be dealing with teams like Midtylland and Hearts home and away in my opinion ...both really poor teams but maybe they games came too soon for us .As for the game against the knuckledraggers ...i dont think we were at the races that day ..guys like Christie and Eddy shouldnt have played then there was guys being played out of position.We looked dangerous going forward last night but that defence needs sorting out ...usual pish though ..we concede a goal and we collapse ..cut out the silly mistakes and this could be s great season for us.Big test #4??
1. Midtjylland away
2. Hearts away
3. Rangers away
4. Betis away
Don't think we have any god given right to beat any of those teams away from home. But each defeat was by 1 goal. Lots of excuses to why we lost those games. Ange won't use excuses so I wont either.
which mistakes were made before the game? Not playing Welsh? Not playing McCarthy?
And yes everyone will be happy with a 4-0 win at Livi, I would be happy with any sort of win after a tiring Europa cup match and not winning there since 2007. I'm not sure why a Celtic fan would not be happy with a win at Livingstone on sunday?
I get what your saying Gary regarding a lack of subs to freshen up the team when needed.Them being able to use all 5 subs was to their advantage. They could take tired players, players on a yellow off, give others some game time, Ange looks at his bench and there are no options to change the game.

Think it's more to do with the defensive line growing more in confidence with the midfield more so imo brim.Maybe we just missed Greg Taylor more than we thought we would.
Seriously though until we get a settled back line this will continue. That's why I was so surprised AP left Welsh out. He and Starfelt were at least getting to know each other. With Ralston on the right we had 3 of a regular back 4. Well, as regular as you can get this season.
Last year we finished bottom and no one conceded more goals than us in the Europa League.
Now I know a lot of us are excited by the attacking football we're playing and it is good to watch. However, it's becoming clear to me, even if we had a full strength team, we cannot possibly keep it up for a full 90 minutes. No one can. It's early in the season an players are already pulling up with injuries, some in training.
We have to find our rhythm. When to turn it on when to just hold on to the ball and make the opposition work for it.
It's all well an good flying out of the blocks but as seen last night after half an hour we ran out of steam and it seemed ideas.
A 95 minute game of football is not a sprint, there are times when you have to defend, to conserve energy, especially in heat like yesterday.
And use your subs isn't that what they're for?
I think we'll do better at home in Europe this season, I bloody hope so anyway.
