Alan MorrisonGUEST
Oh, and then one more thing.
Alan MorrisonGUEST
So, You decide to persist with Liam Scales over Austin Trusty.
Alan MorrisonGUEST
What does that mean? Well, it's a pick your poison on that one.
Alan MorrisonGUEST
I mean, Scales is going to give you a lot more go forward in terms of his ability to pass the ball out from the back.
Alan MorrisonGUEST
Oh, and then one more thing.
Alan MorrisonGUEST
So, You decide to persist with Liam Scales over Austin Trustee.
Alan MorrisonGUEST
What does that mean? Well, it's a pick your poison on that one.
Alan MorrisonGUEST
I mean, Scales is going to give you a lot more go forward in terms of his ability to pass the ball out from the back, providing he's not under a lot of pressure.
JamieHOST
And carrying on from that, there's been all this talk from Martin O'Neill, but from us and Celtic fans, it's good that we're getting young players in the side.
JamieHOST
So why is Scales undroppable? Why can't you put Scales out of the team if all these players are getting a rest, have Murray in there getting minutes beside Carter Vickers, presumably, because Scales makes mistakes constantly.
JamieHOST
We know that, but he's completely... completely undroppable but surely it's better for Murray's development to be playing alongside an older wiser better Carter Vickers rather than besides Scales and then you can bring Scales back in for Besiktas if that won't work so I just it's all a bit to quote Carter Vickers it's all a bit random
MellyHOST
Yeah, and you can see the frustration in the players as well, can't you? There's players when they've made a mistake throwing their hands up.
MellyHOST
There's players when other players miss opportunities, they're throwing their hands up.
MellyHOST
Even guys like right now, I'm watching Duran and he's just like hitting shots yeah there's a few
JamieHOST
players doing that
MellyHOST
yeah the book there again under Ange players knew exactly what to do under Brendan Rodgers when the ball's here you'll have X player here and they should be there like I was greeting about it recently the game where Celtic beat Dundee United 9-0 at Tanadice and I put it in the discord but watch the goals back players are playing passes without even looking they're playing it down the line because they know somebody were there they're cutting it back in areas because they know somebody were there when you watch any other football team whether it be Spurs or Arsenal the players make difficult passes into players under pressure Celtic don't do that whatsoever no player is willing to do that and no player is instructed to do it it's why it goes between the defence and then it ends up Liam Scales puts it down the line for Osman but it ends up going to Duran and Celtic get an opportunity it's all just chance and it is vibes and whatever other
David DunneHOST
Darrochet, 90 minutes in a 2-0 draw with Hull for Ipswich.
David DunneHOST
Liam Scales, 90 minutes in a 2-0 loss at Falkirk.
David DunneHOST
James Abanko, 90 minutes in a 5-2 loss against Roma.
David DunneHOST
Bruton AZ.
25 MINS LATER
Conor McEvoyHOST
Kelleher, Bozzini, O'Leary, Travers and Josh Keighley aren't playing.
Conor McEvoyHOST
And those three are actually doing very, very well.
Conor McEvoyHOST
And defenders, I've got Jason Collins, Jacob Ryan, Liam Kitching, Dara O'Shea, Ryan Manning, Liam Scales, John Egan, James Abankwa, I've got Liam Kitching in there twice, and Andrew Omobamadeli.
Conor McEvoyHOST
I want to say Andrew Omobamadeli finally brought back in.
Andy HallidayPANELIST
yeah well my point is i think daisy made it shown that you can and the reason that he then got on to saying it's becoming basketball it's basketball because of cal mcgregor and the legs in the midfield in my opinion not because the front three
Gordon DuncanHOST
it feels like a lot of this and the midfield of cal mcgregor might be the best example of it marvin it feels like there's so many areas all over the pitch where there is a debate about whether it is individual responsibility an individual lack of Quality Versus A structural problem So you've all seen I'm sure All these Stats and graphs Are doing the rounds now Where Callum McGregor's Progressive passes Are way way way down Compared to what they used to be So Is that Callum McGregor's fault Or Does he now not have the same options In front of him Similarly You know Liam Scales Coming out with the ball yesterday Is that Liam Scales and he's not very good at it or is it easier to do it when you've got Real Hitati and Matt O'Reilly and everyone moving around and fullbacks and inverting and all that sort of stuff that Celtic used to have so all over the pitch Are they individually? Do the players need to take the blame? And how much is it not working structurally as a unit?
Marvin BartleyPANELIST
I think it's a bit of both.
Marvin BartleyPANELIST
And that's why I said earlier on the show that I think Celtic are very off the cuff when they have the ball now.
Marvin BartleyPANELIST
When you see Celtic at their free-flowing best in previous years, they knew where the next pass was going to be.
Marvin BartleyPANELIST
And then when it went to certain situations, they knew where the next run was going to go.
Marvin BartleyPANELIST
and everything else now it looks like like you said liam scales is stepping out and he's looking for a pass and there's no pass on he plays a square pass then it goes backwards again when it goes into wide areas i spoke about it players are having too many touches to then end up coming backwards so all that's happening is full cut we're getting settled behind the ball then they'll play it back to donovan then i go back to carter vickers and then all of a sudden everyone's behind the ball for full cook In terms of Callum McGregor, I think he's played too much football.
Marvin BartleyPANELIST
I really, really do.
Simon FerryHOST
And Celeste play them more than any team I've ever seen.
Simon FerryHOST
Liam Scales to Kieran Tierney is the pass constantly with a winger a yard from him.
Simon FerryHOST
Don't know why they keep playing it.
Simon FerryHOST
Nothing comes of it.
Paul John DykesHOST
It's wide open.
Paul John DykesHOST
You've got Kieran Tierney, who is now looking after Scales, his player, who's then tried to approach Carla Vickers, his player.
Paul John DykesHOST
Carla McGregor's behind the Falkirk guy.
Paul John DykesHOST
He's nowhere.
Paul John DykesHOST
Look at his body shape.
Paul John DykesHOST
He's switched off, right? Because he's not even on the front foot here.
Paul John DykesHOST
Scales is, but he's flat-footed, and you've got the Falkirk goal scorers standing in between the two of them, and we know what happened next.
Paul John DykesHOST
So, Kev, again, this is basics.
Hamish CartonHOST
many of them were down to brilliant bits of play from the team.
Hamish CartonHOST
So the Camilo Duran chance early on when he goes through and hits the post, that comes from a long ball over the top from Liam Scales.
Hamish CartonHOST
Duran then has a header straight at the goalkeeper.
Hamish CartonHOST
Again, he should score.
PaddyPANELIST
centre-halves...
PaddyPANELIST
Liam Scales has got to be removed I think and I'm not a fan I'm not a fan of Austin Trustee as well I think he falls into the same category but I would play Trustee and Murray or CCV
TinoHOST
so there's a thing some fans will be screaming just now at the suggestion that CCV and V Murray is now a genuine debate it wasn't not long ago and it shouldn't have been but it now is who's your best right sided centre half It's now up for grabs.
TinoHOST
It's now a genuine question among Celtic fans.
Kris BoydGUEST
Um, you know, I think Callum McGregor, when you think of, uh, Cameron Carter-Vickers.
Kris BoydGUEST
Liam Scales had a pop as well.
Kris BoydGUEST
Um, I thought Martin was very spiky in his, uh, post-match interviews yesterday as well.
Kris BoydGUEST
It's not all rosy at Celtic.
