The performance overall speaks for itself. Armenia at home all over again and it will continue to happen as long as we set up and play in as open a way as we do. Hopelessly naive stuff.

Kenny was terrified that he would lose at home to Latvia after going 2 up so had to leave his most inform player out there to try and put the game to bed.

Every decision made through a prism of fear now. Hope that Ferguson gets him over the line against Latvia and hope that his injury isnt bad and he can play against France.

As for the performance, cant you see the progress? LOL

Hendrick already showing his quality. Brilliant sweeping pass in the lead up to Johnstons chance.

We have gone out there and scored 3 goals. Smallbone excellent, Ferguson gets his goal, promising cameo from Johnston.

There's a problem for sure with the link between our defence and defensive midfield. Too many goals have come from breaks after losing the ball or from long range strikes after defensive lapses.

Overall though, I feel positive after tonight. Looking forward to Monday

I was positive at 2-0. Now im fooking dreading what France might do. There will be no big game result. Im sure of that now.

Some positives in Smallbone, Ferguson and Johnston. The rest were poor to average. I don't think we have progressed much overall though.
The only way is up

Johnston is interesting. I don't think he will offer enough to start regularly for us, but a great option to have off the bench.

This game will have zero significance to Monday.   New keeper and probably two new defenders and a new midfielder.

Agreed. Hanging on, hoping to beat Latvia after being 2 up 🤦🏼‍♂️

We don’t have a good record of our players playing with Celtic so wouldn’t read into that either way. Tinpot club in a tinpot league imo. 

Johnston played well when he came on tonight

Tinpot Club with the future coach of Liverpool or Man City and with 4/5 players who will play at the very top level in the next 5 years ..

saw him loads at Celtic also and the guy can offer something different. May not start loads but a good option chasing any game. He did well tonight and he’s a good addition to the squad.

A “tinpot” team that would’ve spanked the Irish team that was out there tonight 🤡
