Chris Sutton has delivered his social media verdict on Celtic’s Europa crusade this season.
The bhoys will drop down to the Conference league in the new year, and it’s a case of ‘what if’ for the bhoys in green.
Sutton was measured in his criticism, noting the improvements in this side since Ange Postecoglou took over.
However, there was no escaping Celtic’s defensive flaws.
Celtic subs haven’t worked tonight. Gutsy performance and the truth is the Celtic team have improved so much under Postecoglou. Big shame though. Defensively Celtic have come up well short in Europe. Overall squad strength not as strong as Ange would like. January a key month!

Chris is absolutely right when he talks about the January window. We got a first hand lesson in why we need better strength in depth come 2022.
The subs Ange called upon helped blow the tie in the final minutes. The startling disparity in quality between our first XI and some of the players on the bench is worrying.
If we want to win things this season, we really have to invest in this side.
There’s no reason why Celtic can’t get to the later stages of the Conference league if they play their cards right.
We all know that mans only in the job 6months I thought u at least see the improvements on team players are looking for ball ok some passes were intercepted but ones that got through caused a top German team problems Bayer 04 are well organised wich or last two games coaches got praised but Bayer came past the half way line now that deserves a highest praise not what St Johnstone and livingstone done I think scottish press and punters should be calling it as is non football these coaches are ruining our game and our so called experts u included praising them and you got the cheek to say angi was wrong I know what foot ball I’d watch not 80 minutes of time waisting which refs give to much time u seen it last night two teams giving us a game we all want to see fair play to players ref forgetting it happen and offcourse the coaches that believe in there players and football ethics
