Euro League on Thursday? Can only be tiredness.
For the record I do not think the current manager is going anywhere.
I don’t think he’s expectations on professionalism would gel there. I it’s silly to judge Ange this early. Win yesterday and Celtic are second.
Nah dunno, they were blowing away every team last season with Europe.
Not the same motivation as champions,
We’ve done this before Dreamie... It’s Celtic... 2nd is practically is close to failure - he’ll finish at least second regardless - that’s not good enough.
Weren't you judging to the exact opposite 'early' too?
Ange is a shit house, sacked by Christmas.
6 losses already, Sheeeeeesh. It took Stevie like 70 games before he lost that many.
Lost to Livingston, lost to Betis, lost to Rangers, lost to AZ, lost to Hearts, lost to Midgetlland.
Other than Rangers, all crap teams.

Even rangers are crap!
He could prob do it while playing for us and ensure both sides keep a clean sheet
I've no opinion on the desirability of Stevie becoming Liverpool Manager in the future but if you want to get relatively easy competition whilst being exposed to European competition then the top teams in Portugal, Scotland or Belgium are the places to go. Frank Lampard chose Derby -> Chelsea which was way too much of a jump
Yeah, I think he was too inexperienced. He should have stayed in Derby and tried to get them promoted. Help build the club up. Fucking xenophobic journos talking about giving English managers a chance in top teams. It's not like Klopp, Mourinho etc went from managing 2nd tier teams in their country and straight to the prem.
Look at what Potter is doing in Brighton. I already knew after he left Sweden that he'd be a success.
West Brom must really be regretting that they didn't give him the job, being a Brummy and all

While I agree with quite a lot of this, it's got bugger all to do with xenophobia. It isn't necessary to be xenophobic to wish that more home-grown managers were getting to the top of English football.
I disagree. For instance, pundit and journos are quick to want foreign managers sacked, but when it's an English mangers, like Lampard, no one in the media was talking about him deserving to be sacked. They just keep repeating the same mantra "he needs time" and so on.
I'm not against English managers managing top teams, they should be, I mean it's in England FFS. But it has to be on merit and Potter is on the road to prove himself even further.
That first paragraph is hopelessly exaggerated - you're inflating something which happens sometimes (and is by no means confined to English managers) into an allegedly universal practice, which is just garbage. As far as Lampard specifically is concerned, there were plenty of questions asked about him as his time at Chavski came to an end. Those lobbying for him to be given more time were predominantly his fellow professionals.

Comeback win against 10 men Hibernian
Definitely see Klopp's influence, needs to work on the hugs though.
4 straight wins for Celtic, 1 pt off top.
Ange slowly putting his style in place.

Yep - still in progress but coming along nicely for Big Ange & Celtic.
