What a result, should start with this team, would any one like to see that team with kasper up top and duran just behind him ,move to nygren to the bench just a thought,I just hope we don't sell duran in the summer if a 20 million bid comes in,

Super subs do the job. Happy with O’Neil, he deserves this win 👏

C

Pleased for Martin and the team - a much needed win. Duran’s super sub performance is the best against Turkish opposition in Europe since Wayne Rooney v Fernabahce in 2004.

Well it’s about time they got a win in Europe. But plenty of opportunities to sneak into the top 24 now

Who was your man of the match in Celtic's vital win against Besiktas?

C

callum_boyle13h ago

Mika Baur was absolutely exceptional tonight. If he had more competent midfielders next to him he’d be a world beater. Fantastic

Just seen the team - God help us! So many off form players still selected, I despair!

Here's Celtic's XI to face Besiktas! What are your thoughts? 👀

freddie16h ago

@vkws47gvjg you said he picks the wrong team, has he?

C

cameronmacvicar216h ago

Not sure if bringing in Forrest and Tounekti are the answer. Midfield does not look very strong. Have to say not very hopeful but here's hoping.

After just three wins in 10, what tactical changes do you want to see from Martin O'Neill to change Celtic's fortunes vs Besiktas?

V

vkws47gvjg18h ago

It doesn’t matter what tactical changes Oneill makes. He will select the wrong team. This team are rotten. From the goalkeeper to the Captain to the strikers. The worst Celtic team in decades. It’s time to tell McGregor his time is up as is ONeill and Maloney. We will get absolutely smashed again tonight.

@vkws47gvjg Remember the same crap last season still win the double hailhail.

B

benjaminclarke5122h ago

Drop McGregor

V

vkws47gvjg18h ago

@benjaminclarke51 100 % Benjamin. He’s the cause of most of our defeats. He’s finished. Years ago I may add.

Here is how we think Celtic should line up against Besiktas. What changes would you make?

S

sean701d ago

Need to line up like this as I feel a Skelping is coming. I've scrubbed Europe

M

martinmcgrory82d ago

We need to concentrate on something we can actually win, that is the league, IMO the Europa league has now gone for us, but things need to change, the way we play now won't win us the league.

J

jasbarr85712d ago

Wholesale change required. Rest players for the league.The board has not seen fit to provide a player squads capable in Europe . Consolidate our slender lead at top.

Massive game for under pressure Martin O'Neill! What do you think the score will be? Join us and follow this TalkingPoint as we welcome Besiktas.

kempdouglas401d ago

At last !! Our midfield may progress !

G

gegillies312d ago

I think McGregor needs to be dropped either put in Ox or McCowan can be any worse than how McGregor has played over the past year , I still don’t think we’ll take anything from the match we are just not good enough as a team at the moment

M

mallinsonphil862d ago

Had a bit more to say , replace McGregor,ox will go get rid of two c/h bring two , holding midfielder a must ,a number one goalkeeper,the two we have are not up to it ,most of all bring McKenna in , don't let oneil waste money in January 🍀🍀

amirmir2d ago
