D.C. - Disasterous Catastrophe
They say there are no pub teams in Europe anymore. Try telling that to MLS team D.C. United who humiliated Celtic to a level we haven't seen since the horrific mauling away to Artmedia Bratislava.
Thank goodness Celtic don't have a European encounter coming up because we would not perform very well. We are such a poor team that we've regressed from last season. It's unbelievable this could happen.
Isn't WGS meant to be a man who knows about players? The legend was that he would bring in all our new players BEFORE the World Cup began. If that is the case then we might as well hand the SPL trophey to Paul Le Guen's all-conquering French Revolution.
I mean, is it remotely possible we can even score a goal? The pre-season friendly score count under Strachan shows 2 solitary goals and 9 against in two pre-seasons so far. We're currently doing a 0-4-3 and 0-0-3 for this pre-season. Those are depressing statistics no matter how much of a Strachan apologist you are.
So what has Gordon done for us. Firstly, he sells the best goal scorer in Scotland against his wishes and then tries to bring in an aging Dutch has-been on crazy wages. Haven't we learned anything from the misfit Dion Dublin?
Then we have others who seems to be emerging in the dud category, with Miller totally losing it tonight with a horrific tackle which totally deserved the red card it got. Rangers were lucky to not bring this one in. Then there's Caldwell which even has Aberdeen fans laughing at Celtic.
It's worrying that we have to rely of a 35 year old Telfer as being our top defender. We have no steel in the middle of the park with our only saving grace being Neil Lennon holding us together tonight. If that's how we play with 5m pounds rated Petrov, then what will we look like without it?
I am so fearful of us playing in the Champions League. This will be six games of torture and ridicule which surely will be Strachan's downfall. He can't hide for too long now that his pal Big Eck has left Ibrox.
Where McLeash may have had his issues in understanding how to deploy tactics, this luxury will be vacated with the Le Guen factor. I hate to say it but the more this man talks clearly shows he is the genuine article. It has been suggested he may not be of the calibre he was being talked up to be but it's emerging that this is all wrongly placed optimism by Celtic fans.
So where does that leave Celtic? Hearts and Rangers surely have to be too strong for Celtic and we'll be lucky if we can fight it out with Hibs and Aberdeen for the runners up spot in the 1st qualifying round of the UEFA Cup next season.
One last thing, Strachan, if you have any common sense get Chris Sutton back to Celtic Park. You think you need an experienced striker who is a winner then look no further than the man you bombed out the door in such a shameful manner. Rangers fear him and this would be a masterstroke up there with what Rangers did bring back Mark Hately and Richard Gough in past seasons to out fox Celtic.
Go do it. Bring him home.
