what a great first half......and a peach of a goal from mcdonald end to end stuff as expected......they've been dangerous coming forward.....had a few moments, especially when we lose possessioncan see berbatov or rooney or both coming on for the 2nd......hope we can keep up the pressing and test that goalie again - as he's looked pretty nervous 'mon the bhoys! :celtic:

Murder so it is. ![]() So happy to be 1-0 up at this point and all credit to the players for raising their game and matching them with energy all over the park. Everyone has been good so far, pressing the game and Scott Brown and Barry Robson have been tigers in the centre of the park.Tough ask for them to continue with it, but so far, so good. Was a peach of a goal from McDonald, quite how the man finishes with that much finesse when he has the touch of a double decker bus outside of the box I will never know. Great headed pass from Caldwell as well. Clean sheet and goal to the good from what has probably been one of our only attacks, got to love it. :cheer: United have had their chances as well though and if we can keep them playing at this frantic pace then we have a chance. Stand off them and the second half will be a different story altogether. :celtic:

Good result in the end, especially considering our injuries and the gulf in class between the two sides, but to lose a goal so late, you can't help feel a little deflated. Seems to me Strachan shat it with 15 minutes to go and his change in tactics left us with no outlet whatsoever. This leads to you defending on your 18 yard box and absolutely no respite for the midfield and defence. You clear the ball and it comes straight back at you. Absolutely knackering. Amateur tactics if you ask me. Also feel that Boruc could have done a bit better at the goal. The back four were also very slow in reacting. But hey ho, at least we didn't lose. P.S. Ronaldo is a preening, effete, diving, cheating prick. Let's hope Manure win nothing this season.

was really proud of the team....they gave 100% and were under the cosh for most of the 2nd half, we managed to hold them off for so long, but it wasn't to be I suppose from the possession they had we should be happy with the draw....och well.....the guys played as a team and deserved at the very least one point from their performance......shame the other game was a draw too! |

First up, well done to them all, every single one of them put in a good shift. Was particularly impressed with Brown today, everywhere so he was. The defence was actually very solid for the most part, all of them acquitting themselves well and joined by O'Dea who did what he was asked. Pretty sickening being almost there yet again, but that is what it was when it comes down to it. Basically what got them a draw was the strength of their squad. To be able to bring on Rooney, Berbatov and Evra put that extra bit of pressure on us and they got their equaliser. Deserved it was, but I have to say, I am pretty low after that given the nature of it. Oh well. When it comes down to it, we have a massive injury crisis and that is what will happen. Some of the resilience was a joy to behold though and I think on another day, someone would have closed down Ronaldo and Boruc would have seen the shot wide instead of straight down the throat of Giggs. Shame as we had really gotten to them as well. CP was rocking as well. Nice to have a wee bit of luck that you sometimes need in the CL, but that is how it goes. So, it will come down to the game in Denmark I think to decide whether we will have European football in the 2nd half of the season, keep saying it, but no better time to break our away CL duck. They will be tough though, scored a Naka-esque freekick to draw 2-2 against Villareal. Onto domestic matters.

Strachan on Hutchinson after the game; "He is 7th choice striker and it was too much for him when he came on." WTF? What kind of thing is that to say??? Oh aye and he couldn't play Naka cause of the height at corners! :rolleyes: |
