Mate, I'm a celtic fan. Just watched to see the other sides reaction and iv got to say its refreshing to hear a rangers fan be truthful about the match and give his honest opinion 👍
Mate I did the same with this channel about 3 years ago and haven't stopped watching him since. And generally comment section ain't too dangerous here, can have actual conversations with genuine football fans
@@scott1888 think you hit the nail on the head there. Plus I think the people that come back week after week are of the same ilk and that's why we can have conversations together and just enjoy our sport the way it's meant to be enjoyed.
CJ as an Aussie following Ange and his Celtic journey, great video can definitely see the passion you have for Rangers, can literally hear the mental cogs grinding in your brain as you churned out that detailed analysis for both teams without missing a beat as well as being pretty damn accurate and honest, that's pretty damn amazing. Keep up the good work.
Celtic being able to bring on five strong subs in the second half definitely helped see out the game when the energy levels started dropping. Bitton rock solid when he came on and Maeda has an unbelievable engine. Just didn't stop running all game.
We've had to make do with a regular 12-14 players but when Hagi got injured that left us short again. Those regular haven't had help from the squad. As you intimated, two games a week with a regular team has had an impact as they're running in empty. Aribo is a fantastic player but he's knackered. Squad not good enough and that's down to Parks.
@@chicsharp5786 we have an enormous sqaud, i think its the biggest in scotland thers like 40 plus players in it. The problem is there is very little quality in it. Ive been saying it since gerrad took charge. Bring in QUALITY over quantity. He brought in LOADS of fringe playets bit part projrcts & loanees etc instesd of bringong 5 or 6 of thpse in & payinv thrur wages just bring in ONE quality player & pay him what 5 or 6 of those others who dont even get on the bench anyway would get if need be. I'd rather have a sqaud if 20 or 22 quality players than 40 to 50 very average or poor players. It's a very simple philosophy to follow but it doesn't see to be what anyone at Rangers wants to follow.
Listen I’m a Celtic fan here, always tune in to watch your videos CJ and as many have already mentioned brilliant analysis, just wanted to say about how the bottle incident was a disgrace and that, however every team has individuals that take it too far,and good and bad everywhere you go, but the point of this comment is seriously don’t let the result get your moods down because I see close hand it can bring many people down mentally and at the end of the day it’s a game of football, look after yourselves don’t let it affect your life and keep your heads high, there’s always gunna be good and bad days for both sets of teams
Aye, cos Thursday is the next big game and a chance to put right what went wrong. And rewards for a good result on Thursday are very interesting and can give the fans a wee bit of of happiness after a poor performance.
you should be a Councillor for sad huns Aaron...the bottle incident more than a disgrace pal our physio needing stitches Jota gettin pelted at corners, everywhere that mob go there's carnage sooner they die again the better
It's clearer than ever now that this Rangers squad winning the league last year was more to do with Celtic's implosion than anything else. Nearly every player they've signed has been excellent and lets face it if it wasn't for Morelos then how big would the gap really be. 6 points ahead before Christmas now 6 behind. Gio isn't up to it, his substitutions are shambolic. Bottled the title at home as well as the £40m that comes with it and I'm sure players will need to be sold. Finally, whoever chucked that glass bottle on the pitch is an absolute embarrassment to the football club.
I agree with everything apart the gio part. Now his subs are stupid sometimes personally I think maybe give gio one more season then we can start seeing if he is up to the job.Other than that part I agree with everything else who ever throw that broken bottle should never be allowed in the stadium again
Been a Rangers supporter for 69 years. For Celtic to come to Ibrox and beat us in such an important game with our home crowd , I say well done to them. You should send your video to Rangers management because you are spot on with your assessment of the game, our playing style and players. This defeat should waken the club up, we have major issues all over the park. Sad to see broken glass and coins thrown onto the ground . You would think that the game has moved on from this rubbish. Sadly there are some idiots still around. They are not true supporters, they are a disgrace to Scottish Football, true Glasgow Rangers supporters and the Celtic team. Keep up the good work your videos are honest and fair.
Celtic Fan. CJ I have to give you credit where it’s due. You call it as you see it, impartial and professional and with a solid tactical eye. No bigotry on show, you’re a football fan who follows his team with a passion. For me Celtic have been the better side for some time now. Hankering back to 2021 I’d put it as simple as this, Celtic were not as bad as people made out, and Rangers not as good as people made out. But that’s history and history only remembers the winners as they say. Perhaps your European Journey has masked over a few cracks, but it’s still going unlike ours. I’m a subscriber on the basis of you’re clearly a decent fella and seeing it from another perspective is important 😳👍🏻🍀
Nah it died in 1994 the first of the old firm to change Businesses who ran the club clown even when your team win you come here talking absolute shite moon howler
@@MassiveHappyClapper mate I didnt come here to troll but how could it be ? Campbell Ogilvie former rangers oldco chairman and esteemed QC said this is a new rangers, charles green said " I bought those titles " walter smith the same. If you want to believe it is the same club fair enough. A good example though is this , your great grandfather buys a car because of its registration plate say RFC1 and its MOT'd yearly, then passed to your grandfather same registration and again MOT'd yearly , then to your father who writes off the classic car but cannot bear to give up the registration. The cars a write off and history but he buys another car and puts the same RFC1 reg on it before passing it MOT'd onto you, is it still the same car? This would mean that say queens park are in dire need of money ( though they're amatuers) or dumbarton, they could sell their titles to whomever wants to buy them . Past titles won by any club are not financial assets in themselves. I'm not going to try to convince you of anything just show you the logic behind it and if they were attainable financially then Charles green claimd he owns them
I am a.celtic fan but I have lot of time for cj. Always very fair and honest in his opinion on the game. Ange has done an incredible job in his first season but it not over yet . God bless you cj .
Any Rangers fan that cannot see that we deserved to be beaten today is delusional. What’s hardest to accept is how well we have performed in Europe and yet been so passive domestically. I saw today’s result coming and I’m not surprised as it’s the story of the season. I really worry about playing Braga midweek as they’re a young hungry side.
Good on you CJ, the rest of us bears have been avoiding the internet all day but you’ve had to get on with your job, good work. Pretty poor today, not sure Celtic we’re anywhere near amazing but your correct, we can’t defend set pieces and we cant keep the ball on the deck. Changes needed but I’m just not sure how we can afford it. McGreggor made that amazing save but just can’t seem to get off his line nowadays. Need to see the season out then make some big changes. Thought Ramsey was quality, can’t understand why we kept passing it around in defence instead of going right to Kent and Ramsey. Cut backs instead of crosses and big punts, clever attacking play instead of hit and hope. Celtic defended so well and nothing was going to drop for us. Anyway, thanks for the video CJ, keep it up mate.
Pedro 55 to be honest a had fan rant but ange has our number as our defence is still in trauma after the 3.0 defeat celtic new if they got in front we would fold and we did.
Yep, the defeats that hurt the most are the avoidable ones. Like I didn't brood too much over the 3-0 defeat v Celtic cos we were blown away. But this... It was pedestrian, feeble, no plan B. Sickening. Thursday now must bring a total squad shake up.
A manager that can't beat teams other than Scottish ones hmmm great manager 🤔 rangers will bounce back next season and get their 56th title, we have a european journey to get on with but as we know European football isn't for everyone 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🇬🇧✊
@@sharpy5550 Celtic have signed 15 new players this season, half of which were only signed 3 months ago! so this narrative that Celtic have failed in Europe is pish. Rangers squad has been together 3/4 seasons. Celtic now have CL football and £30m in the bank, we will now be able to attract even better players. Hope your hurting!
@@sharpy5550 9 points in the UEL group of death and one bad game in the conference league leading to us fielding a reserve team in the second leg. Been very positive considering the team we were last season, compared to now, can’t expect to win many games or go long runs yet he’s won games and showed very positive signs in his first year as manager, has rebuilt the team and a treble could be on the cards. You’d piss yourself laughing if I said we could win the treble this year after losing the league by 25 points last year. Ange Postecoglou has done sensational since his arrival at Celtic Park.
Credit to you for an honest and fair game review when you must be feeling like it’s the last thing you want to do. Well done. Watched a few of your reviews and find that’s your way so as a Celtic fan , kudos.
This is the most civil, honest and respectful discussion i have seen online, between Rangers and Celtic fans. 👍👍 I reckon the host sets the tone. Good man
Great analysis mate. We all share your frustration. Scunnered is absolutely the right word. Our defending was shambolic. McGregor somehow managed to keep us in the game and cost us the game at the same time. We were good for 5 minutes, and then didn't control the game again. Gio's subs were shambolic.
Hello from Germany, Ramsey, Lundstram and perhaps Bassey get pass marks ,the rest including Gio and his team, well they need too have a long hard look at themselves. Celtic knew what to do, did it and won. What else is there to say. Great vid ,as always you are there win lose or draw ,i wish we could say the same for the team .
CJ - firstly, great you are back after a difficult time in your personal life. Hope that’s improved and that life is a bit brighter for you (this result aside). I’m a Celtic fan, but it’s great to see a real football fan doing these podcasts, regardless of who they support. You never hide after a bad result and, while I wouldn’t always agree with you (for obvious reasons), you have been gracious in defeat the last two derbies and have given an honest and fairly balanced assessment of this game. Well done too for calling out the idiot that threw the glass bottle on the pitch.
Totally agree with you lad, that was another dire league performance, we’re playing at home and knowing what’s at stake, and put that performance in, absolute joke. Can’t play high balls in to Kemer Roofe, we can all see that. The managers substitutions were scandalous. To be honest we could have got beaten by more. And WTF is it with somebody throwing a bottle on the pitch, cheers for making all Rangers fans look like idiots.
Great review as always CJ. Spot on with your comments, I wish the backroom staff could see your video and listen to your ideas. I thought Aaron Ramsey had a great game taking him off the park was a mistake it's an up hill struggle until the end of the season, it's not over yet but we are depending on Celtic dropping points.
Hullo CJ, agree with your summary of the game. When Ramsey was subbed it felt like we had given up and why wasn’t Steve Davis on for Jack makes no sense but it’s at the back where we lack confidence and you could see it in the poor passing by Goldson and the hesitant McGregor. You’re spot on about the poor service to Roofe and why we didn’t play more 1/2’s with him on the deck showed what we were missing from Buf. I’m gutted that the league has more or less gone now but we need to pick ourselves up and go for the rest of the season to get some pride back. I’d give some youngsters a chance too, we must give Lowry a start. You are a fair voice out there in the cacophony of pods glad you’re staying true to your opinion. WATP 🔴⚪️🔵
CJ I've watched a few of your videos as a a Celtic supporter mate and I've got to say you're a top man. You've always adhered to your principles and said what you believe to be true even on controversial topics. You've pretty much nailed the events of Sunday to a tee. What I'm going to say next is absolutely genuine and I mean it from my heart, if any young Rangers supporter is looking for a role model then they could do a lot worse than yourself. You're passionate about your club but there's none of the spurious bile that comes with a majority of your support that comes onto our sites and I can't pay you any bigger complement than that. I like to think I'm a good judge of character and as I alluded to earlier you're a top man.
You're spot on CJ. Didn't understand our tactics after the opening goal ; Celtic struggle against teams that press their defense and play on the deck. So let's sit off them and play high crosses into the box for the rest of the game ! Exasperating !
We changed formation but didn’t change tactics to suit those players. You play roofe which was right we need a target man in the box. If all we are going to do is lump crosses in. Thursdays game could tell how quickly our season could implode with nothing to show from it. Or we only have a European run to focus now on. Great match review CJ 🔴⚪️🔵
I like your reports on the football mate . I don’t support either teams but just like football in general . Nice report . No bile or unwanted badness . Win or lose you are fair … good on ya mate
That's twice Ange has out managed Gio this season, our title defence this season has been awful. The Celtic board have backed their new manager and he's brought in quality players. It's criminal we've let a 6 point lead slip to fall 6 points behind. It really won't surprise me if they do the treble. This season we've fallen like a deck of cards.
I totaly didnt want van B, I wanted gattuso because we BADLY need a tough manager without sentimentality Someone who loves a challange and thrives on a challange. He would soon suss out the ones to clear out the taverrniers, kents etc who are too nice & who don't have the mentaly or toughness to play for rangers.
I've been saying fae the summer, no spending any money on that squad will catch up with us. Cannae even make meaningful subs noo the squad is that weak. Big changes required now, but let's start with removing Ross Wilson, his recruitment is abysmal. And I don't care who likes it, van bronckhorst isn't the man for the job. He's a soft touch.
I think Ramsey is too clever and skilled to play in the rangers team, you could see him asking for the ball , trying to link up and no one noticed or reacted quick enough then he got subbed 😂 Ryan jack done nothing , Celtic didn't even play to they're full potential as well but deserved the win , Joe aribo , no words 😂😂😂
How many games has Ramsey had to bed In with his new Squad. Very few. He will most probably go on to eliminate Scotland or Ukraine in the playoffs such is his pedigree.
@@MassiveHappyClapper how do you know that's what the issue was , I get that he was injured when he arrived but gio said he was injured, not match fit but he plays the full game for Wales ?? 😂
lost the game we had to win. story of our season coming up second best everytime. want to say positive and say the leagues still not over but i can’t see them dropping 6 points with us keeping a 100% record from now to the end of the season.
Celtic will drop points against hearts and hibs but unfortunately rangers will drop more points too. If it was rangers of last year, we would be 20 points ahead.
@@stuartkane2786 give it a rest bro! We had 11 player that’s never wanted tae be there last year!! See how many years it takes use tae wain another league trophy 🏆!!
Great to listen. As a Celtic fan it's great to hear good honest opinions without any of the usual poison we hear. Classy bud...keep it up. I'm sure Rangers will return at least you have had Europe to shout about. They did you all proud.
I'm a Celtic fan but just subscribed to your channel, well done mate, I'm looking for football reaction not blinkered biased, even when you play football at a low level you know when you play pish and when maybe it just wasn't your day.
I think part of the problem is too many rangers players have been there too long players like kamara,aribo, Kent, barisic,goldson are all good players but think it's time to sell them and freshen team up also need to sign players with right mentality as I feel there are some rangers players in that squad who don't have the mentality to be at club who demand to win every trophy available
Not a fan of any of these teams but wat u have said is pure dirt. Its a team that won the league easy last year look at them in Europe dis year. The players of course want to win. U just can't win all the time.
Fair play CJ. If that was me on the losing side today I wouldn't be able to let the CCV "handball" go. Good analysis as usual, can understand the disappointment, but I thought both teams showed up today. Intensity was there, and both teams made it difficult for quality on the ball to show through for the opposition. Celtic edged it with chances created, but if it ended a draw, couldn't have complained too much either.
I feel like Im repeating myself again CJ but we will never progress to the next level with that back 4. Cost us again today. I was done with Goldson 2 years ago.
I’m bored, I didn’t have a good feeling going into this, what with our league form. Cannae see points being dropped from the deserved winners today. Fckin sick tae my stomach.
Our two most important players are Ryan Jack and Buff. We missed the latter terribly today. Jack tried to get us going but looked tired and out of sorts today.
From a Celtic fan, i appreciate and value your objective and unbiased analysis. Cant say i'm not pleased about the result but, to be honest, i would have quite happily have taken a draw which would have made the rest of the season far more interesting. Kudos to you mate and good luck on your European adventure.
Very honest and justified valuation of how we were, not good enough, limited them to one shot in the second half , however baffling substitute ions, ach well that’s the league for another season.
Top notch assessment as always CJ. As a Celtic supporter I am of course delighted with the result but anything can happen in football and the league has yet to be decided although it will be very difficult for Rangers to claw back the points. Whatever the outcome I wish you and your support every success in Europe. I will be cheering you on on Thursday.
Celtic were rattled today early game - Rangers managed to give them confidence. You missed Morelos today. Celtic clearly have a stronger squad and more resilience. Good luck on Thursday.
C.J, fine reaction as always, yes the same old movie, Greegs planted on his line, when he does make a save it's pushed out to a rival, Tavenier panicking in defence and absolutely no quality going forward and I'll repeat it again he will never be a Rangers captain, Goldson panicking in defence and making mistakes all over the park and gifting possession to rivals, Balogun suffering because of these two, Bassey good game and sorry for him, Jack unfortunately mediocre today, Lundstram good game, Aribo terrible, Ramsey good game, Roofe terrible, Kent mediocre. We must now concentrate on the Europa and earn as much as we can for recruitment for next season and try and win the Scottish cup to save some face. Final word, a 6 point turn around doesn't look good for the manager even if it's still Gerrard's team.
I think you’re a wee bit harsh saying that Tav is not Captain material. I agree with everything else you say, but stats don’t lie, and he is one of the most prolific full backs of this generation, I think he’s definitely worthy of the armband, but he’s always more settled when buff’s on the park.
@@olianderson9697 Oli, I know what you mean, Tav is great going forward and I've advocated that he should be given a run at RM, I just think that when we need an inspiring captain it's not him as I'm in the ahem vintage supporter category I've seen many great Rangers captains like Bobby Shearer, John Greig, Terry Butcher and Richard Gough but sorry to say Tav is nowhere near any of them, still it's all about opinions, I'm just feeling a bit down as you do after an old firm defeat. Take care mate and we're still the people.
Celtic fan here and not coming to gloat but you always give a good analysis again Novo. Thought Bassey was your best player yesterday, really negated the threat from Jota who is usually our most dangerous threat going forward. , he really is a beast. Agree though can understand why GVB brought off Ramsey ? Looked dangerous
love the analysis bro, was a really entertaining match to watch and despite the 1 goal lead rangers did not give up so you have got to rate the effort. But I have to say on that note, mon the hoops
Ramsey getting subbed was criminal, he had a few misplaced passes but he was still the player who was capable of a bit of magic. Hope the so called fan that threw the bottle is found, banned and charged.
Scottish Cup or bust for Gio im afraid, I want him to work out but he's been in the job for a while now and the same problems keep persisting. Tbh, even with the cup win there should probably still be conversations in the summer. I know its the least of our worries the now but what has Amad done to Gio? Couple of good apps, couple of bad apps and hes been banished forever. Ive seen Sakala have terrible games but guaranteed next time we need a sub to come on to change things, Sakala gets the nod. Just dont get it.
Spot on CJ. A lot of scunnered bears tonight. Pains me to say it. But Europe may be keeping gio in the job. Poor start to a massive month. However, things can only get better! 50% win ratio not good enough in 2022
Good honest review mate, I've been saying this for months now that Rangers squad is overrated. Some decent players but they don't play as a team especially defensively . Celtic weren't great today but you know we are well organized and always a goal threat. When you rely on a goalie who is obviously past his best coupled with defenders who can't defend like Goldson and Tavenier your going to struggle.
Anyone wanting Gio to stay as manager at this point is doing so on blind faith and/or the fact he used to play with us. His tactics are non existent and his subs are borderline trolling they're that bad, couldn't give 2 fucks he's only had one window and wasn't given any money to spend in that window or what's happened in Europe leaving on Aribo amd bringing on arfield today was beyond criminal not to mention how he set us up in the last old firm. Alot of rangers fans think the league was lost today, for me i could tell in that game against ross county we weren't winning the league never mind the Dundee United game or that motherwell disaster. Legit even if he wins the europa and scottish cup, which isn't going to happen, I would still want him gone he had every advantage a 6 point lead an invincible league winning team and up against a team on the rebuild and has well and truly fucked it
As a Celtic fan iam being totally honest and non biased, rangers league form has been rotten, draws , late goals to survive, absolutely stinking passing movement and relaying on " we are rangers we will win regardless"…. Not good enough, Celtic suffered from the same balls last year .... Sooner or later it gets found out and your /our luck runs out... The sad thing is like lennon last year and gio this year , they didn't learn from the near misses and obvious stale play !!.. . Arrogance on both manager s i think ! .. scrappy game today , o didn't see much quality from both teams , but as a Celtic fan , a great result !...
Your right but i think celtic have been the same mate. We had bad games that ww drew only difference is when celtic have been bad theyve won late. Dundee, dundee united, hearts and i think it was county. Difference to me isnt class from both sides the differenfe is celtic dig in and ger a late winner when they struggle where as when we need a late goal we rarely score it.
@@craigsmithbodybuilding yes mate Celtic were same for about 4 or 5 games , Ange picked up on the staleness and totally changed the team for Livingstone away , and Celtic hammered them...that's what iam saying about learning from bad form patches , he sorted it , while Lennon last year and gio this year didn't .
Not here to take the piss but whats the thoughts on GVB? If he doesnt win the league from the position that he had then thats a massive stain on him, do the majority of fans want him kept on? Or is it too early to judge? How much of a bearing will the semi final have on that? Ramsays a quality player, anyone who watches football can see that. But he better be for 140k a week! A complete waste of money if you dont win the league, thats what he was brought in for after all. Seems a strange one when you have an injury prone Jack, ageing players like Lundstram, Davis and Arfield. Why not look for something longer term? That centre midfield alone is going to take a pretty big rebuild. Anyway, fair play to you CJ. Pretty honest and unbaised view of the game, which isnt easy when emotions run high 👍🏻
What really kills me is when you look at the amount of silly draws we have had! It’s absolutely killed us! Conceded 3 last minute goals! Threw away 2 goal lead at home to Motherwell. Absolutely started amazingly and let them just waltz in to our box which led to their first goal! It’s been a season of self destruction too many times, same mistakes over and over again! I think I have the sheet music for this season! Is it time to give the youths some much needed game time? Domestically at least! The players who will be here next season? Cause there is gonna be a lot of exits in the Summer! But the thing that leaves the biggest sour taste in my mouth is the fact we have carried Scottish Football in Europe on our backs the last 3/4 years only for us to hand them the rewards! Credit here it’s due they’ve recruited well and they seem to have a working formula!
Review spot on especially regards subs. Players all to predictable and flair players who aren't like lowry don't get a sniff. For whatever reason this team does not perform the same without Morelos. Absolutely stunned by that home performance.
Failed by the board in the summer they backed Gerrard, but when the title was won it's like they saw no need to keep improving. The worry for me is how quicky Celtic have been transformed under a good manager, stable in goals now & more quality going forward. While we're asking questions of certain positions now, a new GK, LB(maybe) CB, CM, 2 wingers & ST at least needed in the summer. Celtic now have more depth attacking wise, they have 3 wide players that could probably be put in the same bracket as Kent. Then when Morelos is out, we always feel the gap it leaves. A great start but then just dropped off, allowing Celtic to have more control over the game. How we allowed McGregor the time to get in the box, for the first goal was a joke. After that goal a lot of our play seemed to be that bad at times.
also a Celtic fan as you know - Rangers did not or could not employ a plan B and Celtic had the much stronger bench. I know it's early days for Bio but he sure as hell needs a transfer window as Rangers look shot - especially without Morelis but a team like Rangers should not be that reliant on one player! Understand your frustration and disappointment CJ and of course as always admire ur passion.
Its been a long long season and to be honest im glad to see the back of us in the league same dross week in and week out. How on gods green earth can we dominate last year and celtic were in the mud to them doing a total re-build with reletivily unknowns to romping the league. One answer...... Hunger Our team is severely lacking and in need of a overhaul. We need, Direct, Quick, Clinical. This team is lazy, Unimaginitive and severely lacking in any bite. Side to side balls, Long balls to 5ft kemar. Decision making is horrible, And no confidence in going forward I mean what the hell is this taking a touch then half a step back to set yourself before deciding what to do next allowing celtic to get back into position. Im just bored with this rangers team. Ageing, Boring, Pitiful in defence and what where those pathetic excuse of shots today? Can anyone strike a ball properly?? Genuinely embarassed and so should this team be. Seen more hunger in school level football. Blank canvass needed including the manager, The only people that worth keeping are Kent and Morelos and to be honest if we got decent cash for them could do alot of good. This isnt even a over the top reaction we are Rangers football club and asides that good year last year and the european nights we are still in trouble people I hope Im not alone in this view.
No you're totaly right! We need to take a leaf out of Anges book. He came in and just cleared out regardless off who it was & what they'd achieved b4, all he knew was they failed the previous term the players he cleared out had only the type of sucess that these rangers players can DREAM ABOUT! If they only achieved even HALF of what the players ange got rid of had achieved they'd be doing cartwheels diwn sauchiehall st. The difference is the MINDSET. There is no sentiment at all, he wants to do it HIS WAY with HIS players. Our managers want to be too nice & sentimental towards losers basicaly. Players who win one thing in 9 and now 1 in 12 it will be and think that makes them winners at this club or legends at this club. The manager needs to just start a clean slate & get rid of them all. The board has gone for the name over the substance of the manager. How many chances do these players need to get b4 it's time to just move on from them? Big ange had no sentiment at all he knows what he wants. I don't think Van B actually knows what he wants. In front of the crowd these players have yet to win a single piece of silverware! Hibs & St johnstone off the top of my head & probably others have a better cup record than us in the last decade. Hearts have been back for one season and one hane away from a scottish cup final better than us in 6 years of being back. Its NOT good enough & its the same captain for a start who's been here all this time. Any other club in the world would have changed their caprain LONG ago. The guy just CANT lead us over tge lime in big pressure must win games. He just can't do it & it's not really his fault anymore because we KNOW he can't do it so the fault has got to lie with the manager & his predecessor for continuing to put him in that position. The guy is a follower NOT a leader. But yet they keep putting him up as a "leader" And it might be neither here nor there some people might think but i disagree! Iam sick of all this "eeeeeee.......i know i ..eeeeee.....want my eeeeee....team to eeeeee" stuff. Come on Gio! Your english is better than that man. Is that how he gets his team talks across? Because if so i dont think i could find much in this guy to inspire me or make me want to buy in to what hes doing of thatd how he gets his message across!
I think for me personally the board have to take some flack. Celtic brought abada on from the bench that cost 5million. I went through our entire bench and we paid under 5 million for all of it. Not getting real quality in has fucked us majorly. That and persisting with a goalie that won't claim any crosses
Lost more money today losing the champions league spot. You’d think that would be an insensitive? What will we have to spend in summer. It’ll be free transfers and old players again
Great summary of the game CJ. Gio is at fault for this team selection and for not changing it yesterday, or throughout post winter break. Not good enough. Subs terrible. Need a clear out in the summer.
CJ you are very honest , we absolutely cheered when Rangers took off Ramsay and replaced him with Arfield you replaced a match winner with a with a journeyman who has no creativity,he gets lucky occasionally but he is never a top player .Too many Rangers players thought the game was won in the first 5 minutes .Will they ever learn ?keep up the good work even though you may have some more pain in the next month or so.
For me I blame the board for everything and as for ross Wilson his signings recently have been shocking we had the chance to put a massive gap between us and them and the board were penny pinching everyone new we needed a new stricker and cb who did we bring in oh sorry we got Cedric itten back absolutely shocking
Like most clubs would have done rangers spent good amount probably more than they should to win the league. It's asking bit much ( & very risky ) to keep doing it, now a title was won board have said right time to start getting financials in order & try to balance books each season. Can't keep spending money you don't have especially when no guarantee it would work out anyway
@@camdenNW1 You are right. My club needs to be run better financially. They also should have built a team from youth, with a couple of experienced players bought each season. Turn profit on players after getting good first team experience and build the club from that. If we put our short term thinking away, back Gio and the Dutch guys to work with our most talented youths and bring in a little experience in that mix, it will pay off, on and off the field.
Whilst our defending was school boy today our front three aribo, Kent and roofe were shocking …… lundstram and bassey were decent but after that it was along drive home again 😕😕😕😕😕😕
This squad under Gerrard were deserved champions as the invincibles. Blew Celtic away . Under this current manager he’s made these players worse . 50 percent win rate in the last 12 league games is horrific. Even the wins have been scraped . The substitutions were criminal today and not for the first time this season . The two most composed players on the ball taken off in Ramsey and jack . How Aribo got 90 minutes was mind blowing . A player who has been off form for months now and was hiding today . Alan McGregor horrific all season and getting picked on past glories . Like watching an old man now . We will win nothing with him in goal . Roofe showed today why Gerrard played him wide . Not strong enough to lead the line and gave Ramsey nothing to play off . Lost all faith in this manager . 12 point swing doesn’t lie . That’s a poor Celtic team that’s won the league this year and more a reflection of our manager. Clueless domestically and there is an arrogance in him not bringing in a Scottish coach like Neil McCann who knows the league inside out . Dire ! 😩
Gio has to take the blame for this. He doesn't learn from mistakes and domestically we've been a shambles and it's been going on for months. I'm sorry but Gio has to fall on his sword.
@@MassiveHappyClapper No, it would have been made clear to Gio that we were operating within a budget and he must have agreed to take the job with the understanding he could win the league with the players that were available.
@@garysellars8914 I don't know if that is true. He took a while to sign as manager. Someone of his caliber would normally expect a transfer budget. Every manager that has come in to us has been given something to spend. So why hasn't Gio? The board have alot to answer for. Look at it this way Pedro got money, £4 million was spent on Pena. We were chasing champions League and a huge pot of cash, yet we spend nothing really after losing our manager.
@@MassiveHappyClapper Oh he'll have been given a budget of sorts to buy players but the number one thing would have been the goal of winning the league for the CL windfall. Now that's buggered up so there'll be a lot less money to spend. In fact we might now need to sell players. This is the situation Gio and the players need to take the blame for. They've F'd it right up. Since we can't get rid of all the players Gio will need to answer for this debacle as the manager always does. I mean how do you think manager's get fired left right and centre in the English Premiership week in week out after a string of bad results? Gio's no different he's not produced the goods. This Europa run has just been a sticking plaster over the wound.
@@garysellars8914 Well he wasn't given a budget in January. All the signings were loans and a free agent. With all that was to play for that is not good enough. Another thing the fans have literally cut their noses off to spite their face with regards to the Sydney Cup. We could have went and fielded a weakened team or a 2nd string team mostly and took the money, that we need. Instead we will likely be liable for breaking a contract now. Add to that Celtic will get £40 million CL money to add to what they have got. We are in a dire situation. Players will leave as well in the summer to balance the books. We will not be able to attract a top manager or anyone better than Gio. The smart thing to do is to build a team of true blues from our youth, and blend it with some experience like Jack and a few others. Make Jack captain and eventually like the Dutch do, sell players who are talented for big money and reinvest sensibly and in youth. The Dutch guys are perfect for that. That is what Gio and co did at Feyenoord. It will take time and pain but it would be worth it.
I love listening to the Celtic fans RUclips channel. Great discussions. I also enjoy CJ Novo's RUclips channel. Tried listening to a few others but it's all swearing and biased views. Can't be listening to that. Keep up the great work CJ! 👍
Spot on CJ. Better team won unfortunately. League is pretty much over so credit to Celtic. We've still got the Europa League and the Scottish cup but big changes needed in this squad for next season.
Mate, I'm a celtic fan. Just watched to see the other sides reaction and iv got to say its refreshing to hear a rangers fan be truthful about the match and give his honest opinion 👍
I watch Ryan 118 for the same reason. Both honest streamers and cheers for not just coming on giving it the 🥳 🎉
Mate I did the same with this channel about 3 years ago and haven't stopped watching him since. And generally comment section ain't too dangerous here, can have actual conversations with genuine football fans
defo no excuses, We played uz off the park for 6 minutes lol
Mate i think cj an ryan are revolutionary. Opposite fans like to watch them for a laugh but end up staying because they are proper football men
@@scott1888 think you hit the nail on the head there. Plus I think the people that come back week after week are of the same ilk and that's why we can have conversations together and just enjoy our sport the way it's meant to be enjoyed.
CJ as an Aussie following Ange and his Celtic journey, great video can definitely see the passion you have for Rangers, can literally hear the mental cogs grinding in your brain as you churned out that detailed analysis for both teams without missing a beat as well as being pretty damn accurate and honest, that's pretty damn amazing. Keep up the good work.
To be fair to him he genuinely is honest which is great to see
Celtic being able to bring on five strong subs in the second half definitely helped see out the game when the energy levels started dropping. Bitton rock solid when he came on and Maeda has an unbelievable engine. Just didn't stop running all game.
We've had to make do with a regular 12-14 players but when Hagi got injured that left us short again. Those regular haven't had help from the squad. As you intimated, two games a week with a regular team has had an impact as they're running in empty. Aribo is a fantastic player but he's knackered.
Squad not good enough and that's down to Parks.
@@chicsharp5786 I hope ye's win in Europe with all sincerity btw
@@chicsharp5786 Yeah Celtic bringing in 4 during the January window was a real boost to a squad that was a bit threadbare before the break.
@@tommym1966 Only 3 of the Celtic players who played yesterday were there when Ange arrived , what an amazing turn around .
@@chicsharp5786 we have an enormous sqaud, i think its the biggest in scotland thers like 40 plus players in it. The problem is there is very little quality in it. Ive been saying it since gerrad took charge. Bring in QUALITY over quantity. He brought in LOADS of fringe playets bit part projrcts & loanees etc instesd of bringong 5 or 6 of thpse in & payinv thrur wages just bring in ONE quality player & pay him what 5 or 6 of those others who dont even get on the bench anyway would get if need be. I'd rather have a sqaud if 20 or 22 quality players than 40 to 50 very average or poor players. It's a very simple philosophy to follow but it doesn't see to be what anyone at Rangers wants to follow.
Listen I’m a Celtic fan here, always tune in to watch your videos CJ and as many have already mentioned brilliant analysis, just wanted to say about how the bottle incident was a disgrace and that, however every team has individuals that take it too far,and good and bad everywhere you go, but the point of this comment is seriously don’t let the result get your moods down because I see close hand it can bring many people down mentally and at the end of the day it’s a game of football, look after yourselves don’t let it affect your life and keep your heads high, there’s always gunna be good and bad days for both sets of teams
Aye, cos Thursday is the next big game and a chance to put right what went wrong. And rewards for a good result on Thursday are very interesting and can give the fans a wee bit of of happiness after a poor performance.
@@grizzlygrizzler8594 you cant put right what went wrong yous just lost 40mil hahaha
you should be a Councillor for sad huns Aaron...the bottle incident more than a disgrace pal our physio needing stitches Jota gettin pelted at corners, everywhere that mob go there's carnage sooner they die again the better

He sounds like a native of Larkhall.
I agree, I enjoy the lads’ vlogs, he talks sense.
Rangers controlled the game to Celtic scored with there 1st attack so controlled the game for 7 mins lol
He’s a top bloke I love his analysis, especially when they lose!
@@den264 that’s a Falkirk twang nothing like Larkhall 😂
It's clearer than ever now that this Rangers squad winning the league last year was more to do with Celtic's implosion than anything else.
Nearly every player they've signed has been excellent and lets face it if it wasn't for Morelos then how big would the gap really be.
6 points ahead before Christmas now 6 behind. Gio isn't up to it, his substitutions are shambolic. Bottled the title at home as well as the £40m that comes with it and I'm sure players will need to be sold.
Finally, whoever chucked that glass bottle on the pitch is an absolute embarrassment to the football club.
Finally someone that talks sense
same as its clear to see rangers throwing it away this season to ? . that's how it works . what about Europe since 2004 explain that ? 🤔
by way use will need that 40 million and more this year more than ever .victims payout will be that and more .
agree with bottle throwing muppet .👍
I agree with everything apart the gio part. Now his subs are stupid sometimes personally I think maybe give gio one more season then we can start seeing if he is up to the job.Other than that part I agree with everything else who ever throw that broken bottle should never be allowed in the stadium again
Been a Rangers supporter for 69 years. For Celtic to come to Ibrox and beat us in such an important game with our home crowd , I say well done to them. You should send your video to Rangers management because you are spot on with your assessment of the game, our playing style and players. This defeat should waken the club up, we have major issues all over the park.
Sad to see broken glass and coins thrown onto the ground . You would think that the game has moved on from this rubbish. Sadly there are some idiots still around. They are not true supporters,
they are a disgrace to Scottish Football, true Glasgow Rangers supporters and the Celtic team. Keep up the good work your videos are honest and fair.
Celtic Fan.
CJ I have to give you credit where it’s due. You call it as you see it, impartial and professional and with a solid tactical eye.
No bigotry on show, you’re a football fan who follows his team with a passion.
For me Celtic have been the better side for some time now. Hankering back to 2021 I’d put it as simple as this, Celtic were not as bad as people made out, and Rangers not as good as people made out. But that’s history and history only remembers the winners as they say.
Perhaps your European Journey has masked over a few cracks, but it’s still going unlike ours.
I’m a subscriber on the basis of you’re clearly a decent fella and seeing it from another perspective is important 😳👍🏻🍀
Wouldn't be a post " old firm" game without getting CJs insightful, honest and raw recap. This from a Celtic fan. Always always very fair.
Then as a "Celtic fan " you should know it's the Glasgow derby pal the old firm died with oldco in 2012 you know this yes?
Nah it died in 1994 the first of the old firm to change Businesses who ran the club clown even when your team win you come here talking absolute shite moon howler
@@Winter-gf9nt nope a lawyer has proven the public institution of Rangers is the same one today as it has always been.
@@MassiveHappyClapper mate I didnt come here to troll but how could it be ? Campbell Ogilvie former rangers oldco chairman and esteemed QC said this is a new rangers, charles green said " I bought those titles " walter smith the same. If you want to believe it is the same club fair enough. A good example though is this , your great grandfather buys a car because of its registration plate say RFC1 and its MOT'd yearly, then passed to your grandfather same registration and again MOT'd yearly , then to your father who writes off the classic car but cannot bear to give up the registration. The cars a write off and history but he buys another car and puts the same RFC1 reg on it before passing it MOT'd onto you, is it still the same car?
This would mean that say queens park are in dire need of money ( though they're amatuers) or dumbarton, they could sell their titles to whomever wants to buy them .
Past titles won by any club are not financial assets in themselves. I'm not going to try to convince you of anything just show you the logic behind it and if they were attainable financially then Charles green claimd he owns them
@@Winter-gf9ntuh huh, no one is convinced. We are the same club, you watched the Old Firm.
As a Celtic fan it's good to hear a rangers fan speak the truth it was 50 50 for most of the game but we created the best chances
Aye like listening to this guy talks more sense than most Rangers fans put together.
F/ox trot Oscar yeah.
I am a.celtic fan but I have lot of time for cj. Always very fair and honest in his opinion on the game. Ange has done an incredible job in his first season but it not over yet . God bless you cj .
Can’t hide the truth. This is not a political channel 😂
Any Rangers fan that cannot see that we deserved to be beaten today is delusional. What’s hardest to accept is how well we have performed in Europe and yet been so passive domestically. I saw today’s result coming and I’m not surprised as it’s the story of the season. I really worry about playing Braga midweek as they’re a young hungry side.
Good on you CJ, the rest of us bears have been avoiding the internet all day but you’ve had to get on with your job, good work.
Pretty poor today, not sure Celtic we’re anywhere near amazing but your correct, we can’t defend set pieces and we cant keep the ball on the deck. Changes needed but I’m just not sure how we can afford it.
McGreggor made that amazing save but just can’t seem to get off his line nowadays. Need to see the season out then make some big changes.
Thought Ramsey was quality, can’t understand why we kept passing it around in defence instead of going right to Kent and Ramsey. Cut backs instead of crosses and big punts, clever attacking play instead of hit and hope. Celtic defended so well and nothing was going to drop for us.
Anyway, thanks for the video CJ, keep it up mate.
Unlucky m8 , Its football.
Neither team was outstanding after the first ten, being honest.
The difference for me was the defensive performances without a doubt.
@@JamesBond-si7xs completely agree 1st ten mins was shocking from both sides Celtics managed it better than rangers, 1st 5 mins I was shitting it tho
Only review that mentions the embarrassment of the glass incident. Good honest summary, good work
Spot on assessment, said most of this during the game. Unforgivable to have thrown in the league away in this fashion 😭
honest appraisal of the game , it's a shame other fan's can't follow your lead
also the bottles thrown as well
Pedro 55 to be honest a had fan rant but ange has our number as our defence is still in trauma after the 3.0 defeat celtic new if they got in front we would fold and we did.
@@cheesebob7185 Never mind the bottles.
Yep, the defeats that hurt the most are the avoidable ones. Like I didn't brood too much over the 3-0 defeat v Celtic cos we were blown away. But this... It was pedestrian, feeble, no plan B. Sickening. Thursday now must bring a total squad shake up.
Postecoglou schooled GVB tactically, what a manager he is.
Except in Europe , where he's pathetic.
Gordon Neely,,,,nuff said,,,,the wee Harry Dunnes don’t do irony
A manager that can't beat teams other than Scottish ones hmmm great manager 🤔 rangers will bounce back next season and get their 56th title, we have a european journey to get on with but as we know European football isn't for everyone 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🇬🇧✊
@@sharpy5550 Celtic have signed 15 new players this season, half of which were only signed 3 months ago! so this narrative that Celtic have failed in Europe is pish. Rangers squad has been together 3/4 seasons. Celtic now have CL football and £30m in the bank, we will now be able to attract even better players. Hope your hurting!
@@sharpy5550 9 points in the UEL group of death and one bad game in the conference league leading to us fielding a reserve team in the second leg. Been very positive considering the team we were last season, compared to now, can’t expect to win many games or go long runs yet he’s won games and showed very positive signs in his first year as manager, has rebuilt the team and a treble could be on the cards. You’d piss yourself laughing if I said we could win the treble this year after losing the league by 25 points last year. Ange Postecoglou has done sensational since his arrival at Celtic Park.
Credit to you for an honest and fair game review when you must be feeling like it’s the last thing you want to do. Well done.
Watched a few of your reviews and find that’s your way so as a Celtic fan , kudos.
If there was ever a game to summarize our league season it was this one here..
What's that ? NOT GOOD ENOUGH 😂
This is the most civil, honest and respectful discussion i have seen online, between Rangers and Celtic fans. 👍👍 I reckon the host sets the tone. Good man
Great analysis mate. We all share your frustration. Scunnered is absolutely the right word. Our defending was shambolic. McGregor somehow managed to keep us in the game and cost us the game at the same time. We were good for 5 minutes, and then didn't control the game again. Gio's subs were shambolic.
Hello from Germany, Ramsey, Lundstram and perhaps Bassey get pass marks ,the rest including Gio and his team, well they need too have a long hard look at themselves. Celtic knew what to do, did it and won. What else is there to say. Great vid ,as always you are there win lose or draw ,i wish we could say the same for the team .
As a celtic fan I always find your reviews incisive and honest.
CJ - firstly, great you are back after a difficult time in your personal life. Hope that’s improved and that life is a bit brighter for you (this result aside). I’m a Celtic fan, but it’s great to see a real football fan doing these podcasts, regardless of who they support. You never hide after a bad result and, while I wouldn’t always agree with you (for obvious reasons), you have been gracious in defeat the last two derbies and have given an honest and fairly balanced assessment of this game. Well done too for calling out the idiot that threw the glass bottle on the pitch.
CJ doing what he does best, telling the truth. Great analysis as always. Hope you are keeping well 👏
Spot on CJ.
Couldn’t have put it any better.
Totally agree with you lad, that was another dire league performance, we’re playing at home and knowing what’s at stake, and put that performance in, absolute joke. Can’t play high balls in to Kemer Roofe, we can all see that. The managers substitutions were scandalous. To be honest we could have got beaten by more. And WTF is it with somebody throwing a bottle on the pitch, cheers for making all Rangers fans look like idiots.
Great review as always CJ. Spot on with your comments, I wish the backroom staff could see your video and listen to your ideas. I thought Aaron Ramsey had a great game taking him off the park was a mistake it's an up hill struggle until the end of the season, it's not over yet but we are depending on Celtic dropping points.
Hullo CJ, agree with your summary of the game. When Ramsey was subbed it felt like we had given up and why wasn’t Steve Davis on for Jack makes no sense but it’s at the back where we lack confidence and you could see it in the poor passing by Goldson and the hesitant McGregor. You’re spot on about the poor service to Roofe and why we didn’t play more 1/2’s with him on the deck showed what we were missing from Buf. I’m gutted that the league has more or less gone now but we need to pick ourselves up and go for the rest of the season to get some pride back. I’d give some youngsters a chance too, we must give Lowry a start. You are a fair voice out there in the cacophony of pods glad you’re staying true to your opinion. WATP 🔴⚪️🔵
CJ I've watched a few of your videos as a a Celtic supporter mate and I've got to say you're a top man. You've always adhered to your principles and said what you believe to be true even on controversial topics. You've pretty much nailed the events of Sunday to a tee. What I'm going to say next is absolutely genuine and I mean it from my heart, if any young Rangers supporter is looking for a role model then they could do a lot worse than yourself. You're passionate about your club but there's none of the spurious bile that comes with a majority of your support that comes onto our sites and I can't pay you any bigger complement than that. I like to think I'm a good judge of character and as I alluded to earlier you're a top man.
The glass on the pitch at start of 2nd half pure crazy and dangerous for both sets of players but well spotted by Joe hart.
You're spot on CJ. Didn't understand our tactics after the opening goal ; Celtic struggle against teams that press their defense and play on the deck. So let's sit off them and play high crosses into the box for the rest of the game ! Exasperating !
CJ, Very Well Said,
We didn't ask enough questions of their defence and our shooting was weak.
We changed formation but didn’t change tactics to suit those players. You play roofe which was right we need a target man in the box. If all we are going to do is lump crosses in. Thursdays game could tell how quickly our season could implode with nothing to show from it. Or we only have a European run to focus now on. Great match review CJ 🔴⚪️🔵
Top drawer summary mate. Passionate, honest, insightful and fair. Enjoy listening to you. From a happy Tim.
I like your reports on the football mate . I don’t support either teams but just like football in general . Nice report . No bile or unwanted badness . Win or lose you are fair … good on ya mate
That's twice Ange has out managed Gio this season, our title defence this season has been awful. The Celtic board have backed their new manager and he's brought in quality players. It's criminal we've let a 6 point lead slip to fall 6 points behind. It really won't surprise me if they do the treble.
This season we've fallen like a deck of cards.
That was without Kyogo, where as we lacked Morelos and had no real quality replacements.
Rangers bottled it who's laughing now
@@owenmcnally4269 still look forward to Europe anyways buddy what u doing on Thursday? 🤣😂
I totaly didnt want van B, I wanted gattuso because we BADLY need a tough manager without sentimentality Someone who loves a challange and thrives on a challange. He would soon suss out the ones to clear out the taverrniers, kents etc who are too nice & who don't have the mentaly or toughness to play for rangers.
55
I've been saying fae the summer, no spending any money on that squad will catch up with us. Cannae even make meaningful subs noo the squad is that weak. Big changes required now, but let's start with removing Ross Wilson, his recruitment is abysmal. And I don't care who likes it, van bronckhorst isn't the man for the job. He's a soft touch.
Season was done a while ago IMO, need a clear out in the summer
agreed
And Start with that unless clown Roofe
I think Ramsey is too clever and skilled to play in the rangers team, you could see him asking for the ball , trying to link up and no one noticed or reacted quick enough then he got subbed 😂 Ryan jack done nothing , Celtic didn't even play to they're full potential as well but deserved the win , Joe aribo , no words 😂😂😂
How many games has Ramsey had to bed In with his new Squad. Very few. He will most probably go on to eliminate Scotland or Ukraine in the playoffs such is his pedigree.

Great to listen. As a Celtic fan it's great to hear good honest opinions without any of the usual poison we hear. Classy bud...keep it up. I'm sure Rangers will return at least you have had Europe to shout about. They did you all proud.
I'm a Celtic fan but just subscribed to your channel, well done mate, I'm looking for football reaction not blinkered biased, even when you play football at a low level you know when you play pish and when maybe it just wasn't your day.
We've nobody to blame for surrendering this league but ourselves. Completely threw away too easily.
YOUR SIMPLY THE BEST 💚💛👋
Good honest assessment of the game
I think part of the problem is too many rangers players have been there too long players like kamara,aribo, Kent, barisic,goldson are all good players but think it's time to sell them and freshen team up also need to sign players with right mentality as I feel there are some rangers players in that squad who don't have the mentality to be at club who demand to win every trophy available
Not a fan of any of these teams but wat u have said is pure dirt. Its a team that won the league easy last year look at them in Europe dis year. The players of course want to win. U just can't win all the time.
Best analysis of the game by far, good job mate, pity about the result.
Fair play CJ. If that was me on the losing side today I wouldn't be able to let the CCV "handball" go.
Good analysis as usual, can understand the disappointment, but I thought both teams showed up today. Intensity was there, and both teams made it difficult for quality on the ball to show through for the opposition. Celtic edged it with chances created, but if it ended a draw, couldn't have complained too much either.
I feel like Im repeating myself again CJ but we will never progress to the next level with that back 4. Cost us again today. I was done with Goldson 2 years ago.
Don't see what the big deal with goldson as I think he's pish average tbh
Defense panicked too much. Celtic just look more youthful and urgent. Still, they’re crap in Europe

Jack did look tired playing for Scotland never got rested
From a Celtic fan, i appreciate and value your objective and unbiased analysis.
Cant say i'm not pleased about the result but, to be honest, i would have quite happily have taken a draw which would have made the rest of the season far more interesting.
Kudos to you mate and good luck on your European adventure.

A very fair and balanced review of the game as always.
Top notch assessment as always CJ. As a Celtic supporter I am of course delighted with the result but anything can happen in football and the league has yet to be decided although it will be very difficult for Rangers to claw back the points. Whatever the outcome I wish you and your support every success in Europe. I will be cheering you on on Thursday.
Your a bettter man than me
Good Video CJ
Celtic were rattled today early game - Rangers managed to give them confidence. You missed Morelos today. Celtic clearly have a stronger squad and more resilience. Good luck on Thursday.
Thanks, appreciated.
C.J, fine reaction as always, yes the same old movie, Greegs planted on his line, when he does make a save it's pushed out to a rival, Tavenier panicking in defence and absolutely no quality going forward and I'll repeat it again he will never be a Rangers captain, Goldson panicking in defence and making mistakes all over the park and gifting possession to rivals, Balogun suffering because of these two, Bassey good game and sorry for him, Jack unfortunately mediocre today, Lundstram good game, Aribo terrible, Ramsey good game, Roofe terrible, Kent mediocre. We must now concentrate on the Europa and earn as much as we can for recruitment for next season and try and win the Scottish cup to save some face. Final word, a 6 point turn around doesn't look good for the manager even if it's still Gerrard's team.
Cannae disagree wi that.
Correct!!!
I think you’re a wee bit harsh saying that Tav is not Captain material. I agree with everything else you say, but stats don’t lie, and he is one of the most prolific full backs of this generation, I think he’s definitely worthy of the armband, but he’s always more settled when buff’s on the park.
@@olianderson9697 Hi Oli, looks like the only thing missing was the weekly Tavpen!
@@olianderson9697 Oli, I know what you mean, Tav is great going forward and I've advocated that he should be given a run at RM, I just think that when we need an inspiring captain it's not him as I'm in the ahem vintage supporter category I've seen many great Rangers captains like Bobby Shearer, John Greig, Terry Butcher and Richard Gough but sorry to say Tav is nowhere near any of them, still it's all about opinions, I'm just feeling a bit down as you do after an old firm defeat. Take care mate and we're still the people.
Celtic fan here and not coming to gloat but you always give a good analysis again Novo. Thought Bassey was your best player yesterday, really negated the threat from Jota who is usually our most dangerous threat going forward. , he really is a beast. Agree though can understand why GVB brought off Ramsey ? Looked dangerous
love the analysis bro, was a really entertaining match to watch and despite the 1 goal lead rangers did not give up so you have got to rate the effort. But I have to say on that note, mon the hoops
The players are scared to tackle and shoot defo need a clear out
Wit you said CJ. Spot on.
First time I've actually felt sick at an OF game. Shambles mate. Team looked so leggy.
Ramsey getting subbed was criminal, he had a few misplaced passes but he was still the player who was capable of a bit of magic.
Hope the so called fan that threw the bottle is found, banned and charged.
To put Arfield on, too. Absolutely mad.
Scottish Cup or bust for Gio im afraid, I want him to work out but he's been in the job for a while now and the same problems keep persisting. Tbh, even with the cup win there should probably still be conversations in the summer.
I know its the least of our worries the now but what has Amad done to Gio? Couple of good apps, couple of bad apps and hes been banished forever. Ive seen Sakala have terrible games but guaranteed next time we need a sub to come on to change things, Sakala gets the nod. Just dont get it.
No chance in a million years winning that game either rangers are winning nothing and it's the truth
As a Celtic fan I like yer vids even when you win it is good to have a insight from the other side
CJ refreshing to hear an honest opinion from the opposition.
Well done, you have stood up to the plate , taken the defeat and gave a fair assessment of the game - ✅
MAN ON THE POST, old school yes, but that's the basics of football, proven season after season.
Every day of the week mate, tried and tested.
Spot on CJ. A lot of scunnered bears tonight.
Pains me to say it. But Europe may be keeping gio in the job. Poor start to a massive month. However, things can only get better! 50% win ratio not good enough in 2022
Good honest review mate, I've been saying this for months now that Rangers squad is overrated. Some decent players but they don't play as a team especially defensively . Celtic weren't great today but you know we are well organized and always a goal threat. When you rely on a goalie who is obviously past his best coupled with defenders who can't defend like Goldson and Tavenier your going to struggle.
Seems the Rangers squad prepared and performed much better in derbies under Gerrard than GVB.
I'm a Celtic fan but like your honest opinions keep it up fella
Anyone wanting Gio to stay as manager at this point is doing so on blind faith and/or the fact he used to play with us. His tactics are non existent and his subs are borderline trolling they're that bad, couldn't give 2 fucks he's only had one window and wasn't given any money to spend in that window or what's happened in Europe leaving on Aribo amd bringing on arfield today was beyond criminal not to mention how he set us up in the last old firm. Alot of rangers fans think the league was lost today, for me i could tell in that game against ross county we weren't winning the league never mind the Dundee United game or that motherwell disaster. Legit even if he wins the europa and scottish cup, which isn't going to happen, I would still want him gone he had every advantage a 6 point lead an invincible league winning team and up against a team on the rebuild and has well and truly fucked it
As a Celtic fan iam being totally honest and non biased, rangers league form has been rotten, draws , late goals to survive, absolutely stinking passing movement and relaying on " we are rangers we will win regardless"…. Not good enough, Celtic suffered from the same balls last year .... Sooner or later it gets found out and your /our luck runs out... The sad thing is like lennon last year and gio this year , they didn't learn from the near misses and obvious stale play !!.. . Arrogance on both manager s i think ! .. scrappy game today , o didn't see much quality from both teams , but as a Celtic fan , a great result !...
F/off .yeah.
Your right but i think celtic have been the same mate. We had bad games that ww drew only difference is when celtic have been bad theyve won late. Dundee, dundee united, hearts and i think it was county. Difference to me isnt class from both sides the differenfe is celtic dig in and ger a late winner when they struggle where as when we need a late goal we rarely score it.
@@craigsmithbodybuilding yes mate Celtic were same for about 4 or 5 games , Ange picked up on the staleness and totally changed the team for Livingstone away , and Celtic hammered them...that's what iam saying about learning from bad form patches , he sorted it , while Lennon last year and gio this year didn't .
Celtic Fan - always enjoy CJs post game analysis'. Measured and insightful, no matter the result.
Had one lucky season out of 10 this is the start of 10 in a row again for the cells hh
Good man . Your honest. Get respect from a Celtic fan 🙂👍.
Not here to take the piss but whats the thoughts on GVB? If he doesnt win the league from the position that he had then thats a massive stain on him, do the majority of fans want him kept on? Or is it too early to judge? How much of a bearing will the semi final have on that?
Ramsays a quality player, anyone who watches football can see that. But he better be for 140k a week! A complete waste of money if you dont win the league, thats what he was brought in for after all. Seems a strange one when you have an injury prone Jack, ageing players like Lundstram, Davis and Arfield. Why not look for something longer term? That centre midfield alone is going to take a pretty big rebuild.
Anyway, fair play to you CJ. Pretty honest and unbaised view of the game, which isnt easy when emotions run high 👍🏻
What really kills me is when you look at the amount of silly draws we have had! It’s absolutely killed us! Conceded 3 last minute goals! Threw away 2 goal lead at home to Motherwell. Absolutely started amazingly and let them just waltz in to our box which led to their first goal! It’s been a season of self destruction too many times, same mistakes over and over again! I think I have the sheet music for this season! Is it time to give the youths some much needed game time? Domestically at least! The players who will be here next season? Cause there is gonna be a lot of exits in the Summer! But the thing that leaves the biggest sour taste in my mouth is the fact we have carried Scottish Football in Europe on our backs the last 3/4 years only for us to hand them the rewards! Credit here it’s due they’ve recruited well and they seem to have a working formula!
That's football.
Just have to hope we can qualify for champions League. Think we have 2 qualifying rounds.
@@swallis0001 it's automatic to group stage in Champions league if we win Europa league.
Brilliantly put
Review spot on especially regards subs. Players all to predictable and flair players who aren't like lowry don't get a sniff. For whatever reason this team does not perform the same without Morelos. Absolutely stunned by that home performance.
Failed by the board in the summer they backed Gerrard, but when the title was won it's like they saw no need to keep improving. The worry for me is how quicky Celtic have been transformed under a good manager, stable in goals now & more quality going forward. While we're asking questions of certain positions now, a new GK, LB(maybe) CB, CM, 2 wingers & ST at least needed in the summer. Celtic now have more depth attacking wise, they have 3 wide players that could probably be put in the same bracket as Kent. Then when Morelos is out, we always feel the gap it leaves.
A great start but then just dropped off, allowing Celtic to have more control over the game. How we allowed McGregor the time to get in the box, for the first goal was a joke.
After that goal a lot of our play seemed to be that bad at times.
also a Celtic fan as you know - Rangers did not or could not employ a plan B and Celtic had the much stronger bench. I know it's early days for Bio but he sure as hell needs a transfer window as Rangers look shot - especially without Morelis but a team like Rangers should not be that reliant on one player! Understand your frustration and disappointment CJ and of course as always admire ur passion.
Top man, I'm a Celtic fan but I really appreciate your footballing honesty!
No big silly grin today cj nachos
Its been a long long season and to be honest im glad to see the back of us in the league same dross week in and week out. How on gods green earth can we dominate last year and celtic were in the mud to them doing a total re-build with reletivily unknowns to romping the league. One answer...... Hunger
Our team is severely lacking and in need of a overhaul. We need, Direct, Quick, Clinical. This team is lazy, Unimaginitive and severely lacking in any bite. Side to side balls, Long balls to 5ft kemar. Decision making is horrible, And no confidence in going forward I mean what the hell is this taking a touch then half a step back to set yourself before deciding what to do next allowing celtic to get back into position. Im just bored with this rangers team.
Ageing, Boring, Pitiful in defence and what where those pathetic excuse of shots today? Can anyone strike a ball properly??
Genuinely embarassed and so should this team be. Seen more hunger in school level football.
Blank canvass needed including the manager, The only people that worth keeping are Kent and Morelos and to be honest if we got decent cash for them could do alot of good.
This isnt even a over the top reaction we are Rangers football club and asides that good year last year and the european nights we are still in trouble people I hope Im not alone in this view.
No you're totaly right! We need to take a leaf out of Anges book. He came in and just cleared out regardless off who it was & what they'd achieved b4, all he knew was they failed the previous term the players he cleared out had only the type of sucess that these rangers players can DREAM ABOUT! If they only achieved even HALF of what the players ange got rid of had achieved they'd be doing cartwheels diwn sauchiehall st. The difference is the MINDSET. There is no sentiment at all, he wants to do it HIS WAY with HIS players. Our managers want to be too nice & sentimental towards losers basicaly. Players who win one thing in 9 and now 1 in 12 it will be and think that makes them winners at this club or legends at this club. The manager needs to just start a clean slate & get rid of them all. The board has gone for the name over the substance of the manager. How many chances do these players need to get b4 it's time to just move on from them? Big ange had no sentiment at all he knows what he wants. I don't think Van B actually knows what he wants. In front of the crowd these players have yet to win a single piece of silverware! Hibs & St johnstone off the top of my head & probably others have a better cup record than us in the last decade. Hearts have been back for one season and one hane away from a scottish cup final better than us in 6 years of being back. Its NOT good enough & its the same captain for a start who's been here all this time. Any other club in the world would have changed their caprain LONG ago. The guy just CANT lead us over tge lime in big pressure must win games. He just can't do it & it's not really his fault anymore because we KNOW he can't do it so the fault has got to lie with the manager & his predecessor for continuing to put him in that position. The guy is a follower NOT a leader. But yet they keep putting him up as a "leader"
And it might be neither here nor there some people might think but i disagree! Iam sick of all this "eeeeeee.......i know i ..eeeeee.....want my eeeeee....team to eeeeee" stuff. Come on Gio! Your english is better than that man. Is that how he gets his team talks across? Because if so i dont think i could find much in this guy to inspire me or make me want to buy in to what hes doing of thatd how he gets his message across!
I think for me personally the board have to take some flack. Celtic brought abada on from the bench that cost 5million. I went through our entire bench and we paid under 5 million for all of it. Not getting real quality in has fucked us majorly. That and persisting with a goalie that won't claim any crosses
3.5 million bud!
@@Chrissyssj3 point still stands we have penny pinched and its cost us.
Lost more money today losing the champions league spot. You’d think that would be an insensitive? What will we have to spend in summer. It’ll be free transfers and old players again
@@andy-r-2242 the money is not there. Couldnt even get a defender from Hearts in for a few hundred grand.
@@albertmccready478 probably could have got him but didn't want to overpay for him
Great summary of the game CJ. Gio is at fault for this team selection and for not changing it yesterday, or throughout post winter break. Not good enough. Subs terrible. Need a clear out in the summer.
Well said cj 👏 👏
CJ you are very honest , we absolutely cheered when Rangers took off Ramsay and replaced him with Arfield you replaced a match winner with a with a journeyman who has no creativity,he gets lucky occasionally but he is never a top player .Too many Rangers players thought the game was won in the first 5 minutes .Will they ever learn ?keep up the good work even though you may have some more pain in the next month or so.
For me I blame the board for everything and as for ross Wilson his signings recently have been shocking we had the chance to put a massive gap between us and them and the board were penny pinching everyone new we needed a new stricker and cb who did we bring in oh sorry we got Cedric itten back absolutely shocking
agreed
Peter if your club are in debt where does the funds come from to sign up new quality players. Catch 22 comes to mind.
Like most clubs would have done rangers spent good amount probably more than they should to win the league. It's asking bit much ( & very risky ) to keep doing it, now a title was won board have said right time to start getting financials in order & try to balance books each season. Can't keep spending money you don't have especially when no guarantee it would work out anyway
@@camdenNW1 You are right. My club needs to be run better financially. They also should have built a team from youth, with a couple of experienced players bought each season. Turn profit on players after getting good first team experience and build the club from that. If we put our short term thinking away, back Gio and the Dutch guys to work with our most talented youths and bring in a little experience in that mix, it will pay off, on and off the field.
Not just recently, many midfielders did we sign under Gerrard to disappear?
Spot on analysis CJ
Whilst our defending was school boy today our front three aribo, Kent and roofe were shocking …… lundstram and bassey were decent but after that it was along drive home again 😕😕😕😕😕😕
I think rangers fans are, how you say...Disappointed
Domestic matches this season are just not good enough hard to watch especially after our results in Europe we definitely missed the big man upfront
Our results in Europe is because it’s attacking football not 11 players in the box🔴⚪️🔵
This squad under Gerrard were deserved champions as the invincibles. Blew Celtic away . Under this current manager he’s made these players worse . 50 percent win rate in the last 12 league games is horrific. Even the wins have been scraped . The substitutions were criminal today and not for the first time this season . The two most composed players on the ball taken off in Ramsey and jack . How Aribo got 90 minutes was mind blowing . A player who has been off form for months now and was hiding today . Alan McGregor horrific all season and getting picked on past glories . Like watching an old man now . We will win nothing with him in goal . Roofe showed today why Gerrard played him wide . Not strong enough to lead the line and gave Ramsey nothing to play off . Lost all faith in this manager . 12 point swing doesn’t lie . That’s a poor Celtic team that’s won the league this year and more a reflection of our manager. Clueless domestically and there is an arrogance in him not bringing in a Scottish coach like Neil McCann who knows the league inside out . Dire ! 😩
100% agree we need a manager not that gio cowboy
Gio has to take the blame for this. He doesn't learn from mistakes and domestically we've been a shambles and it's been going on for months. I'm sorry but Gio has to fall on his sword.
The board has to take the blame for bringing in a new manager and not giving him a proper January transfer kitty with so much on the line.
@@MassiveHappyClapper No, it would have been made clear to Gio that we were operating within a budget and he must have agreed to take the job with the understanding he could win the league with the players that were available.
@@garysellars8914 I don't know if that is true. He took a while to sign as manager. Someone of his caliber would normally expect a transfer budget. Every manager that has come in to us has been given something to spend. So why hasn't Gio? The board have alot to answer for. Look at it this way Pedro got money, £4 million was spent on Pena. We were chasing champions League and a huge pot of cash, yet we spend nothing really after losing our manager.
@@MassiveHappyClapper Oh he'll have been given a budget of sorts to buy players but the number one thing would have been the goal of winning the league for the CL windfall. Now that's buggered up so there'll be a lot less money to spend. In fact we might now need to sell players. This is the situation Gio and the players need to take the blame for. They've F'd it right up. Since we can't get rid of all the players Gio will need to answer for this debacle as the manager always does. I mean how do you think manager's get fired left right and centre in the English Premiership week in week out after a string of bad results? Gio's no different he's not produced the goods. This Europa run has just been a sticking plaster over the wound.
@@garysellars8914 Well he wasn't given a budget in January. All the signings were loans and a free agent. With all that was to play for that is not good enough. Another thing the fans have literally cut their noses off to spite their face with regards to the Sydney Cup. We could have went and fielded a weakened team or a 2nd string team mostly and took the money, that we need. Instead we will likely be liable for breaking a contract now. Add to that Celtic will get £40 million CL money to add to what they have got. We are in a dire situation. Players will leave as well in the summer to balance the books. We will not be able to attract a top manager or anyone better than Gio. The smart thing to do is to build a team of true blues from our youth, and blend it with some experience like Jack and a few others. Make Jack captain and eventually like the Dutch do, sell players who are talented for big money and reinvest sensibly and in youth. The Dutch guys are perfect for that. That is what Gio and co did at Feyenoord. It will take time and pain but it would be worth it.
I love listening to the Celtic fans RUclips channel. Great discussions. I also enjoy CJ Novo's RUclips channel. Tried listening to a few others but it's all swearing and biased views. Can't be listening to that. Keep up the great work CJ! 👍
Well said CJ spot hopefully win the 2 cups
Blaming xG now 😂😂😂 you got beat by a better football team mate, xG has had celtic top nearly all season, it tells the truth.
Spot on CJ. Better team won unfortunately. League is pretty much over so credit to Celtic. We've still got the Europa League and the Scottish cup but big changes needed in this squad for next season.
