I still don't get the logic of resting Aguero today. He isn't playing for a few weeks anyway. Had nacho picked up an injury, we would've been screwed in the league. We need nacho fresh for the weekend so why did he play the full match?

It was so nice to listen to romanian commentary tonight. He said we had two penalties and asked a few times what is happening with the refs.

One word. Pointless.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

maybe one of the last times we see maffeo and tosin in the 1st team after that. Sane had a few bright sparks among lots of bad passes. Nacho had a good finish and was lively uptop, but should have gotten a 2nd.

Nice to have a keeper making saves again. MOTM was gundo for me. So silky on the ball

Overall, I'd sum up the match with a shrug. Not terrible, but very forgettable

I didn't see the majority of the game but don't underestimate what this game meant to Celtic. We had a serious second string out there and they came away with a creditable draw.

Don't listen to the Sky/BT clowns with their throw away one liners that influence the plastics thoughts.

On another note, 2 fucking shots on target! That's what happens when you rely and heap the pressure on one person, then expect a young lad to step up when the pressure tells.

Crazy bat shit fucks!

I'd be surprised if Pep isn't more than a little annoyed with Sergio after needlessly getting suspended during one of the busiest times of the season

Do we have a plan B?

Genuine question.

Teams got us figured out.

Puzzled the crap out of me too
He should have played Kun with Nacho
Then brought Nacho off for the weekend

I've worked out that plan A is try and score as many goals as possible while pushing as many players as possible up the pitch.

I think plan B is that when wer'e on the back foot, you don't drill the defence and leave them to mince about and basically have the oppo run through them.

I could be wrong.

The only plan I can see is where we piss about with the ball at the back until we concede. I feel like we are falling off a cliff and it's very difficult to watch. I don't really care for our Plan A.

It's currently a ball of shit. Shambolic defence whoever plays, very average players all over the pitch. Generally, it's crap.

Just got home from the Etihad . Yes very strange team selection , Tosin did well and was very cool and assured and never dived in once which was great to see. Strange sort of game but it was a dead rubber , fucking chaos outside the ground as predicted and loads of scuffles inside , a couple of free for alls going on in 122 and 121 and 120 fucking disrespectful Celtic cunts everywhere !!! Blonde haired senior steward lady deserves a medal sorting the pissed up Celtic clowns out and throwing them out , very hostlie indeedy but how did they all get tickets and get in with all the checks ???
Not really here

dear lord that was boring. i know it was a dead rubber but wow.

Willy is so poor. has to go in the summer.

pretty worried about Fernando taking Fernandinho's spot for 3 matches (including Arsenal). his passing is still bad and he's prone to errors.

Yes these were my thoughts. Said he was pleased with his players outwardly immediately after Chelsea but not necessarily inwardly. Suspect kun may well have been dropped in order to learn from his indiscipline in what was essentially a game we could afford to drop him in.

I think (and I hope) it will be Yaya and Gundogan and even Delph who is finally fit. Anyone there but Fernando ! Interesting that Zabba was tested in that position against Celtic !!
