We asked for your views on the 2-0 win against Dundee that kept Celtic top of the Premiership.
Here’s what some of you said:
Patrick: Too many slack passes and wasted opportunities from the starting players. Fortunately the substitutes made all the difference, Alistair Johnston was subbed on and had scored within three minutes and Daizen Maeda won the penalty! At least we have the depth to rest some players, albeit for 60 minutes.
Michael: Excellent start to the season but concerns remain oover the strength of the back-up players. In a number of games this season – Falkirk, Ross County and Dundee – we have had to be rescued by the first-team players coming back on.
Eamon: Both the Falkirk game and this match show that the fringe players at Celtic just aren’t up to the standard required and must be moved on in January. It’s a matter of time before Celtic get caught out if five or six changes are made to the starting line-up. Start with the strongest team and then make changes when the game is safe.
Gordy: Proved again we can’t make too many changes without disrupting how we play, but the game should have been out of site before half-time. Kyogo Furuhashi is out of sorts but will come good when it matters. Sadly Yang Hyun-Jun, Anthony Ralston and other squad players can’t seem to play to the standard required when they start games, but we got the result and that’s what matters.
Paul: You feel someone is about to face the fireworks soon, with Celtic missing so many chances and still winning by two or three goals. Could it be Aberdeen and then Leipzig this week? Great to have a top penalty scorer and commander Johnston on the wings.
John: A bit ponderous in the first half but the substitutions made all the difference, an easy night at the office.
