It's a relief to hear a rational analysis of this defeat; so many are panicking and calling players 'not Celtic class'. Remember, this is year 1 of a major rebuild.
Absolutely we are still only in ''year 1 of a major rebuild'' but the facts only remain it was a spectacularly poor performance & a very collective one at that, with O'Riley being the only star of the show in the first 45 minutes & he had to be with Invisible Man McGregor reverting back to what he always does best, going invisible when it matters most & Rogic who was almost invisible against lowly Raith Rovers & then went completely invisible against Bodo.
@@RedScotland roma had lost 6-1 in Norway, without their greatest side. They pulled off all the stops, started their best possible side - drew 2-2. There’s no excuse for the loss, but there shouldn’t have to be
Absolute good analysis. Over 3 games against Rome in about 6 months, Bodø har 2 wins and a draw , goalscore 10-4, They also just beat AZ Alkmaar over 2 games reasently to reach the quarter final, and beat Mou once more at home in Bodø. Looking forward to the "rumble in Rome" on thursday. As this pod says - the reason is the same teambuilding Celtic has just started.
Amazing breakdown of the game, coming from a small place like Bodø I have such respect for a team like Celtic and it's such fun seeing two aggressive teams go against eachother and I have all hopes Its gonna be another thriling game next thursday, I've got tickets at the ready. Whatever the outcome it's gonna be a good show. All respect to a team of your history, its allways a fun to play against a team of your caliber. We are both set up for championa league qualifiers this next season, fingers crossed. :)
Well played Christian - what a superb team you have and a great manager. I hope you go far in the tournament but we still have some small hope! Enjoy the match.
@@RedScotland i don't know about swatted aside, remember this Bodø team absolutely destroyed Roma in a way Roma had never been destroyed before. Make no mistake about it, Bodø is a pedigree team with lots of football history and an amazing culture. There are some players on the team that are destined for big leagues, like Solbakken on the rw. He really is of high international standard and there are several others too. So, sure Celtic should win if you take it on face value.. but Bodø is on a flow atm, brimful of confidence. They are very fit and physical. Also they play a football style that is similar to Liverpool, high press and intencity 433.. so they always create loads of chances and they score shitloads of goals. So.. they create problems for absolutely everyone and in order to beat them you have to score goals.
Very well put sir . I really enjoyed the game not the result . Good luck to you and your team and I will definitely keep an eye on the progress . Hail Hail
No disrespect towards Celtic or scottish football in general - but just to put things in a perspective: Bodø/Glimt has fought against Molde FK the last 3 years about the norwegian leauge title (and won the 2 last ones and got second in 2019 when Molde won) Molde on the other hand has been a top team in Norway for several years, and have won the leauge in Norway several times the last 10-12 years. In 2015 Molde played Celtic in Europe leauge both home and away - and how did that go? Molde won both games.
Not a schock. Only for those who didnt check their results. Our leagues has similarities. The best 5 in Norway would be top 5 in Scotland. ( Bodø- Glimt / Molde /Rosenborg/Vking/ Kristiansund.
Bodø sold many of their best players that year 2020 and had to rebuild their attack. They have become like Dortmund and Ajax where they do well and sell their best players each year. Hopefully Bodø keeps moving forward and keep their style of play, because it norwegian measurement we haven`t seen this good football since the Rosenborg days 17++ years ago. Imho when Bodø play at their best they are better than any Rosenborg team from the paste.
Every time I watch your podcasts I feel like I am at a University lecture. Keep it up lads. I like analytics. Celtic have been a little “off”since the second half of the Aberdeen game. The results are irrelevant . Some of their mojo has gone. Getting a reality check from time to time is not so bad. I guarantee you that Ange will be working hard to bring back the mojo and get a positive result in the return leg of this game. Bodo deserved the win and it was great to watch a team on a small budget playing great percentage football. It shows the rest of the SPL that they don’t have to park the bus. It is not a solution and the whole of Scottish football suffers as a result. The upside for Celtic is that there is a lot of room for improvement and I look forward to the next leg.
I also think Celtic have been a little ''off'' in recent times & I sincerely hope it's not ever a case that for some of them & important players too, & I'm thinking particularly of Invisible Man McGregor & Rogic, that they now have only near completely ''run their race'' as far as this season is concerned & particularly in the context of how we're now fast approaching the business end of it, with a League Title & a Scottish Cup completely up for grabs & they will only be won with everyone firing on all cylinders right up until May & if not....
@@frankbrennan1619 Frank harsh on McGregor - he was manfully trying to plug some pretty large gaps. Rogic was a real disappointment as were all the "creatives". O'Riley just about got a pass.
@@alanmorrison5981 Completely not harsh at all Alan. Prior to Brendan Rodgers' arrival, Wee Callum always had a propensity for disappearing for highly significant periods of a match & for which Rodgers almost completely eradicated from Wee Callum's game & as such, he no doubt played his best football under Rodgers' tenure but ever since his departure, this disappearing for highly significant periods of a match has returned with such ferociousness that Wee Callum now becomes completely invisible for the whole of a match & nearly always when we come up against even only a wee bit of quality & so then much is expected of him & he then only miserably fais to deliver.
It is interesting to hear your arguments now, because in this spring Bodø has beaten AZ Alkmaar over two matches, and just drove Morinho almost to insanity by beating Rome once more in the 1. leg of the qarter final- It is so nice to see teambuilding beat money and greate names. Good luck on the new Celtic project. I´m Norwegian, but was in Glasgow in january 1974 - i worked on a ship, an got tickets to se Celtic beat Rangers by 1-0 , I believe the man who scored was named Lennox or something like that. All the best to god, fearley low budget teambuilding in Celtic. :)
They were excellent team , we had enough warnings about them particularly from Roma . Their mid field was very smart and skilled players . Our mid field were unimpressive , sadly Rodic was invisible and ORiely was very good . I feel we lacked aggression and bite and given our wingers were off the pace we really played into their hands moreover our left back position is now critical, we need to resolve this issue which has been outstanding for two seasons . I doubt we will qualify now .
Absolutely they were an excellent Team & what particularly impressed me was the overall Team performance with not one, single, solitary passenger & amongst this superb collective performance, there were three or four players of real quality & so this only meant they completely dominated the game & nullified us all over the park.
I liked Wenbangomo at left back for Bodo. He had composer under the press, rapid pace with the ball to breakout of the press, accurate, fast, one touch passing ability, athletic, strong and decent height. Certainly an improvement on Taylor. It was his first game for Bodo after a free transfer in January and he isn't even a left back.
B/G's gk was in Chelsea's academy. Like many other players in B/G ahead of 2020 season, his career had failed. He was about to retire from football when B/G offered him a contract. Now he is a russian national. Berg and Saltnes didn't enjoy their football. It was a broke group of players. Now B/G have been ripped off of players since. Nikita has been so good for B/G. I am sure he is proud to play for B/G too.
Brilliant analysis gents. Alan's insight into the 72 attacking breakdowns says it all. Sometimes you go out on a football field and it just doesn't happen no matter how good or bad the opponents are. Ange actually summed it up himself when he said we were simply not potent enough up front. I think one thing many seem to be missing is little mention of the absence of our new talisman - Kyogo. Like Henrik in the good old days, Henrik nearly always found a way. I see similarities - albeit too early to be sure - that Kyogo can unlock most defences with his movement off the ball, skill and finishing prowess. I also believe Maeda and George will get better and sharper. We can't be great every week. Let's go over there and hump them 0-4!
A lot of very valid points Neil . The thing is when you are not on it you are not on it . It was a really bad night all over the park but stats show that if we were on our game and not so wasteful it would have probably been a very different outcome ..
I was there last night. Horrible, horrible, horrible all around game from us, and the Jose Mourinho time wasting from Bodø soured the atmosphere and definitely affected the crowd not a peep from our bench or players. We did NOT turn up. The team who were underestimated last night was Celtic, utter pish. We were so slow in attacking that Bodø had time to get into their ultra compact unit time and time again. As good as Bodo were in their formation, Celtic were so disjointed both on the ball and off it. We cough "dominated" cough every other metric from possession to the 10-0 on corners, 1 save to 6, 200 more passes mostly between defenders. We should have been 1 or 2 goals up after 3 minutes. Our passing was too passive. Our attacking with Jota was poor. Rogic and O'Riley did not work. Lacked a quality Centre Midfielder( Callum found out again and again in Europe ) with pace or big strides, didn't help with leaving spaces for buses. 4 counter attacks all night from Bodø, with 1 goal lost down to CCV, one with CCV and Taylor and the third Callum skinned on centre circle and was out of position.
When Bodø plays at their highest level, they look like Liverpool in destroying their opponent (beating Roma 6-1 at home was insane where they beat Roma at everything).
Really enjoyed the show and the breakdown . It's not over yet but the first goal is important . Looking forward to watching 2 good teams going at it 👏 👍 hail hail 🙌
I think the second leg will give us some further insight into how quickly Ange and this team learns and adapts. I'm optimistic that we'll see an improved performance in the second leg. I say this because in domestic games Ange has been quick to learn what works and what doesn't work. The improvement in the team's performances since the break is testament to his insight. I'm looking forward to finding out whether the same insight carries over into a European knock out tie.
@@swell_tuna But you're forgetting that Ange & Ange Ball is completely NOT interested in ''the defensive side of the game'' because if he was, he would have definitely signed a quality left back in last month's transfer window because we're screaming out for one & a quality defensive midfielder too....
Right in the here & now we are, at the very best, in the third tier of European football & getting comprehensively beaten 3-1at home by a Team nobody had ever heard of previously.
Yes indeed, we have come a long way in this the first season of a complete rebuild & Ange has to be rightly thanked & praised for that but like it or not, there are some hitherto ineradicable flaws in Ange's footballing character that if not eradicated, will only ever cost us dear when it matters most.......
True. But, ‘perfection’ in football is a fantasy. Celtic are always going to be ‘limited’ re finances, quality of players etc. Our biggest problem this summer will be trying to hold onto our players, who’ll be getting notes waved in their faces by richer clubs. Realistically, the best we can hope for is attacking, exciting football, occasional wins against the big boys, and winning the domestic league and trebles. The very best we can hope for is a good run in Europe, and I think we’ll get there under Ange.
@@tinamac2380 Absolutely we are always going to be ''limited re finances'' simply because we play in the woeful & mediocre SPL that completely generates no money of the kind needed for European football & even if it is for the lowly third Tier, but still there are countless Celtic fans who even now resolutely believe that we are always a Club that should only ever be playing Champions League Group Stages football for goodness sake.....
Bodo looked like they had been focused and working towards this game for months during the shutdown. Fair play to them. We will know what to expect next week, it's not over yet. Mon the hoops, be clinical.
I had a conversation with that Thomas Hanlon on twitter and I can confirm that he wanted Celtic to sack Ange and bring in Kjetil Knutsen. That guy was not happy about last nights loss. 😂
They have done remarkable given their resources and have punched way above their weight so t have been fantastic . However they are not world beaters they have had some eye catching results but Europe has been chequered . Lost 5-2 to legia Warsaw in europa qualifiers and drew half of their conference group games . The fact is we were really off it last night , really poor by our standards and were punished which tends to happen in Europe . However there was enough evidence to suggest that an on form Celtic would have made a lot of chances and probably faired ok .Bad night but we move on
The Bodo keeper is 6ft tall ,hardly small tbh. Funnily enough there was no mention of Maeda till near the end . Is this guy quick ,or,did he just look quick in Japan against slow defenders? Yep they stood off Jota and Abada and made them make a decision,which ,as it turned out they couldn’t do. That’s worrying. Maybe Benfica already know that though. Thing is the Bodo manager got sacked from his previous job.
You say a shock result Enda but Bodo haven't played for three months. The usual excuse when they lose early in qualifiers is that they weren't ready, too early in the season etc. So which is it? Every year Celtic are losing to low ranked teams and messing up the Scottish coefficient. Forget about the XG nonsense Celtic cannot win knock out ties.
@@frankbrennan1619 I wasn’t trying to mean or personal. Sorry to have drawn that out. I just thought it would have been better to have GG at the beginning when their defenders looked a bit shaky and then had Maeda coming in when they started to cramp up.
Ange & Ange Ball is only ever going to be ''too open'' & that will only ever see us being ultimately unsuccessful in even the lowly third tier of European football......
@@frankbrennan1619 Real concern is space behind midfield, it is a risk.. if we managed to convert few chances then could live with it.. Trust the Process
@@kierannolan5429 Trust is for amateurs as somebody once said & so as we all saw with our own eyes yet again on Thursday night, the facts are only that Ange Ball near completely doesn't work on ANY level in ANY European football context, even the lowly third tier for goodness sake & the huge big whopping 25 goals we have conceded is ALL the proof you need.....
Bodø/Glimt have a brilliant second goal keeper Joshua Smiths.. Nikita Haikin had to fight really hard for the first spot. Also they will most definitely not change their style. They would NEVER park the bus. they always play as if the score is 0-0.
@@RedScotland No team should be swatted aside if they do their research on their opposition. If anything, if you underestimate your opponent like Celtic did, then they should be the one "swatted aside". Bodø dared to play their own game while Celtic could only sit and watch
I think it is obvious in hindsight that Hatate and GG should have played from the start. Curveball -- Hatate Calmac and Maeda. Scales? Maybe. But that has been crying out to be solved since KT went on loan to Arsenal. Lastly? KYOGO KYOGO KYOGO 古橋 亨梧 There is an indefinable magic about him that has been sorely missed in the team and in the fans. Anyone who saw him at pitchside as the players came off knows why.
Those seal clubbing bstds where way better than I expected, league it is now... Only thing is that miracle in Germany will give the Gers all the confidence in the world, this will be tightest league run in , in years .
Really would rather have a decent performance next week grab a win to make amends but really don’t want to progress in this nothing competition. Time would be much better spent focusing on the triple , no midweek trips to the back of beyond would enhance freshness and give us much needed time on the training ground . Come May if we bag the triple is anyone going to give a second though to this half baked competition that very few respect.
Bodø/Glimt are doing things different. Do you think players have demons? Mental challenges? Several players on the team struggled with having enjoyment with football at all. They see the whole person, and if you as a whole person have it better the player will also do well 😊 There is a former fighter jet pilot that works in a company with counter intelligence. So he can change players and clubs way to work 😊 They have the right people to pick players. If someone rarely misses with What they seek in players are deeply pinpointed and the same people that choose right keep getting it right. There is extreme talent in the team and so its up to oponents to find out what that is😉 They never focus on results NEVER! They meditate before the match with with stadium sound 😉 There is so much more!
Carter Vickers is amazing with a «look» that can shred opponents. I just think he is let to play and the teamates are not understanding him. When they can anticipate where Carter will place the ball then the movement can create more chances.
@@RedScotland Also Norway are in the top in many sports and not just Wintersport. We build knowledge across many sports, and share it with each other to do better. Visualization and meditation is ONE WAY to do well and there are off course other way of doing it. Developement is always happening in football and well you being close minded isnt Bodø/Glimts problem🤣😁👍 When you do things to be a better person and player you realize how little you actually know😛
@@huddlebreakdown The issue for me is only that Ange did not get a quality left back in last month's transfer window when all of us knows that we needed one & now we only need one even more urgently & if we don't buy one in the summer, then what on earth is that all about, because for sure, Scales, Ralston or Juranovic are not the answer in any way.
Oligarchs and big business have ruined football… Compare Chelsea's disgraceful (£97.5 million) Lukaku performance v Crystal Palace against this tiny team's amazing performance v Celtic.
can we please tone down the drug cheat rhetoric in the comments. very disrespectful without any proof. bodo are a good team, and have done remarkably well to make the best of the limited resources available to them, by being smart and working hard, as opposed to anything else. celtic opponants like leverkrusen and even rangers are better teams. if you have to choose between a conspiracy and a stuff up, as the cause of a problem, you would take stuff up any day. the lack of high quality decision making at all levels led to celtics demise, and bodo were just good enough to take advantage of it.
Oh come on the goal keeper should have been sent off the ref should have pulled the up for there conceited time wasting we had a bad game which made them look better I not for the fact of playing rogic he’s played more bad games than good games our Bhoys are good when our top players are good last nite we had no good on form players so bodi team got a gift from us last nite artificial pitch has to be up in THR circle due to the temperatures in the well minus thermometer reads but but we will beat there coceited attitude of there players. 4-0 our favour Hail Hail
celtic won possession nearly 60 to 40 % depending on whos data you believe, twice as many shots, somewhere between 2 to 3 times as many attacks than bodo, and thats being generous to bodo by my video analysis, so i am struggling to workout how you manage to lose 3 to1 . except for a 10 minute period early in the first half, celtic had control. that 10 minutes , bodo got ahead, and could have had a second, but celtic as alan has pointed out were wasteful. so in my game journal, this is the sequence of celtic low IQ moments, rogic chooses the wrong line to hit maeda making a run through the middle, maeda hits the wrong man going right when 2 other players had more space in the box, right side attack cross to the far post, when there was a better op near post , left side attack, cross to high for maeda, possession from corner, ball goes right, should have gone left, this was in the first 5 to 6 minutes before bodo scored. had there been better decision making on any of these occaisions , there would have been high probability scoring ops, and celtic 2 nil up, rather than 1 nil down. the whole game is littered with these episodes of celtics poor decision making in attack, and not progressing the play when in attack. i could list them all, but you get the picture. bodo are fast , mobile , athletic side, so they really taught celtic a lesson about transition play from offence to defence , and visa versa, with limited opportunities, because of celtics possession dominance, but they arent leverkrusen , who can hurt you in transition , and dominate possession. in the 2nd half, you could count the amount of optimisable possessions in celtics defensive third , that bodo had , on one hand, and it yielded 2 goals, celtic had 4 times as many optimisable opportunites in bodos defensive third, and got just 1 goal.. bottom line is even if bodo, exposed some of the transition issues celtic have against mobile fast teams , higher quality decision making by celtic would have meant celtic burying 4 or 5 past bodo, and wiining 5 to 3 , rather than losing 3 to 1. this has been the issue all season, low IQ in attack, and hopefully its rectified in the away leg. i will end on my pet subject, bodos left back was impressive, athletic and fast, so why arent boli or eroghede playing, instead of taylor , and subing for juranovic at times.

I'm optimistic that we'll see an improved performance in the second leg. I say this because in domestic games Ange has been quick to learn what works and what doesn't work. The improvement in the team's performances since the break is testament to his insight.
I'm looking forward to finding out whether the same insight carries over into a European knock out tie.
@@swell_tuna But you're forgetting that Ange & Ange Ball is completely NOT interested in ''the defensive side of the game'' because if he was, he would have definitely signed a quality left back in last month's transfer window because we're screaming out for one & a quality defensive midfielder too....
“There are no small teams anymore. That is over” - ZZ.
Right in the here & now we are, at the very best, in the third tier of European football & getting comprehensively beaten 3-1at home by a Team nobody had ever heard of previously.
@@RedScotland ..and your car is running well?🤪
@@RedScotland If Bodø is a pub club, then what is Roma then? Bodø beat Roma 6-1
Cheer up lads. We’ve come a long way, but still nowhere near the finished article.
Top show.
Yes indeed, we have come a long way in this the first season of a complete rebuild & Ange has to be rightly thanked & praised for that but like it or not, there are some hitherto ineradicable flaws in Ange's footballing character that if not eradicated, will only ever cost us dear when it matters most.......
True. But, ‘perfection’ in football is a fantasy. Celtic are always going to be ‘limited’ re finances, quality of players etc. Our biggest problem this summer will be trying to hold onto our players, who’ll be getting notes waved in their faces by richer clubs. Realistically, the best we can hope for is attacking, exciting football, occasional wins against the big boys, and winning the domestic league and trebles. The very best we can hope for is a good run in Europe, and I think we’ll get there under Ange.
@@tinamac2380 Absolutely we are always going to be ''limited re finances'' simply because we play in the woeful & mediocre SPL that completely generates no money of the kind needed for European football & even if it is for the lowly third Tier, but still there are countless Celtic fans who even now resolutely believe that we are always a Club that should only ever be playing Champions League Group Stages football for goodness sake.....
Bodo looked like they had been focused and working towards this game for months during the shutdown. Fair play to them. We will know what to expect next week, it's not over yet. Mon the hoops, be clinical.
First time watcher. Really interesting
Onto the next game, COYBIG 💚
Can we start a crowd fund campaign to upgrade Alan's webcam?
the dude to right..u done ur due...respect
I had a conversation with that Thomas Hanlon on twitter and I can confirm that he wanted Celtic to sack Ange and bring in Kjetil Knutsen. That guy was not happy about last nights loss. 😂
James do you believe the analysis guy at Celtic will pick up on your excellent comments and analysis. Hope so
They have done remarkable given their resources and have punched way above their weight so t have been fantastic . However they are not world beaters they have had some eye catching results but Europe has been chequered . Lost 5-2 to legia Warsaw in europa qualifiers and drew half of their conference group games . The fact is we were really off it last night , really poor by our standards and were punished which tends to happen in Europe . However there was enough evidence to suggest that an on form Celtic would have made a lot of chances and probably faired ok .Bad night but we move on
The Bodo keeper is 6ft tall ,hardly small tbh. Funnily enough there was no mention of Maeda till near the end . Is this guy quick ,or,did he just look quick in Japan against slow defenders? Yep they stood off Jota and Abada and made them make a decision,which ,as it turned out they couldn’t do. That’s worrying. Maybe Benfica already know that though. Thing is the Bodo manager got sacked from his previous job.
The keeper (Haikin) is on the Russian national team.
You say a shock result Enda but Bodo haven't played for three months. The usual excuse when they lose early in qualifiers is that they weren't ready, too early in the season etc. So which is it? Every year Celtic are losing to low ranked teams and messing up the Scottish coefficient. Forget about the XG nonsense Celtic cannot win knock out ties.
I think also the decision to start Maeda rather than GG worked against the team.
GG is only a goal scorer who doesn't actually score goals....
@@frankbrennan1619 I wasn’t trying to mean or personal. Sorry to have drawn that out. I just thought it would have been better to have GG at the beginning when their defenders looked a bit shaky and then had Maeda coming in when they started to cramp up.
Clinical post mortem, being too open has cost us in Europe..brand new team that will get better and better..future is bright under Ange
Ange & Ange Ball is only ever going to be ''too open'' & that will only ever see us being ultimately unsuccessful in even the lowly third tier of European football......
@@frankbrennan1619 Real concern is space behind midfield, it is a risk.. if we managed to convert few chances then could live with it.. Trust the Process
@@kierannolan5429 Trust is for amateurs as somebody once said & so as we all saw with our own eyes yet again on Thursday night, the facts are only that Ange Ball near completely doesn't work on ANY level in ANY European football context, even the lowly third tier for goodness sake & the huge big whopping 25 goals we have conceded is ALL the proof you need.....
Bodø/Glimt have a brilliant second goal keeper Joshua Smiths.. Nikita Haikin had to fight really hard for the first spot. Also they will most definitely not change their style. They would NEVER park the bus. they always play as if the score is 0-0.
@@RedScotland No team should be swatted aside if they do their research on their opposition. If anything, if you underestimate your opponent like Celtic did, then they should be the one "swatted aside". Bodø dared to play their own game while Celtic could only sit and watch
The difference in both teams was pace in transition between defence and attack and imo better than Leverkusen
I think it is obvious in hindsight that Hatate and GG should have played from the start.
Curveball -- Hatate Calmac and Maeda.
Scales? Maybe. But that has been crying out to be solved since KT went on loan to Arsenal.
Lastly?

There is an indefinable magic about him that has been sorely missed in the team and in the fans. Anyone who saw him at pitchside as the players came off knows why.
They certainly didn’t fear us that’s for sure
Those seal clubbing bstds where way better than I expected, league it is now... Only thing is that miracle in Germany will give the Gers all the confidence in the world, this will be tightest league run in , in years .
Really would rather have a decent performance next week grab a win to make amends but really don’t want to progress in this nothing competition. Time would be much better spent focusing on the triple , no midweek trips to the back of beyond would enhance freshness and give us much needed time on the training ground . Come May if we bag the triple is anyone going to give a second though to this half baked competition that very few respect.
New treble out of 3 European competitions
celtic have lost 25 goals in 3 european competitions so far this season its not hard to see where the problems lay.
You see it, I see it & thousands of others see it but Ange with his Ange Ball, goes completely out of his way NOT to see it.....
We're 18 months away from them
As soon as I read the starting eleven, I thought - Ange has choked, again.
Bodø/Glimt are doing things different. Do you think players have demons? Mental challenges? Several players on the team struggled with having enjoyment with football at all. They see the whole person, and if you as a whole person have it better the player will also do well 😊 There is a former fighter jet pilot that works in a company with counter intelligence. So he can change players and clubs way to work 😊
They have the right people to pick players. If someone rarely misses with What they seek in players are deeply pinpointed and the same people that choose right keep getting it right.
There is extreme talent in the team and so its up to oponents to find out what that is😉 They never focus on results NEVER! They meditate before the match with with stadium sound 😉
There is so much more!
Carter Vickers is amazing with a «look» that can shred opponents. I just think he is let to play and the teamates are not understanding him. When they can anticipate where Carter will place the ball then the movement can create more chances.
Also why are Starfeldt playing in Celtic if you dont think he can be a ball player ?
@@RedScotland It is enough to beat Celtic 🤣
@@RedScotland Also Norway are in the top in many sports and not just Wintersport. We build knowledge across many sports, and share it with each other to do better. Visualization and meditation is ONE WAY to do well and there are off course other way of doing it.
Developement is always happening in football and well you being close minded isnt Bodø/Glimts problem🤣😁👍
When you do things to be a better person and player you realize how little you actually know😛
If Taylor is out of his depth will he try Scales or move Juranovic left and start Ralston? Either way it’s definitely Celtic’s weakest area
That's the issue. It's either test out a young inexperienced player there or play someone out of position
@@huddlebreakdown The issue for me is only that Ange did not get a quality left back in last month's transfer window when all of us knows that we needed one & now we only need one even more urgently & if we don't buy one in the summer, then what on earth is that all about, because for sure, Scales, Ralston or Juranovic are not the answer in any way.
nexst match..snow and real vikings!
Big mistake to play o`riley and rodic in midfield and leave hatate out and should have started GG bad team selection from ange
Major rebuild…calm down!
Oligarchs and big business have ruined football… Compare Chelsea's disgraceful (£97.5 million) Lukaku performance v Crystal Palace against this tiny team's amazing performance v Celtic.
can we please tone down the drug cheat rhetoric in the comments. very disrespectful without any proof.
bodo are a good team, and have done remarkably well to make the best of the limited resources available to them, by being smart and working hard, as opposed to anything else.
celtic opponants like leverkrusen and even rangers are better teams.
if you have to choose between a conspiracy and a stuff up, as the cause of a problem, you would take stuff up any day.
the lack of high quality decision making at all levels led to celtics demise, and bodo were just good enough to take advantage of it.
It's the easiest option for some unfortunately. Rather accept conspiracy nonsense than the idea their team didn't play well.
But but yous was going to win it
Oh come on the goal keeper should have been sent off the ref should have pulled the up for there conceited time wasting we had a bad game which made them look better I not for the fact of playing rogic he’s played more bad games than good games our Bhoys are good when our top players are good last nite we had no good on form players so bodi team got a gift from us last nite artificial pitch has to be up in THR circle due to the temperatures in the well minus thermometer reads but but we will beat there coceited attitude of there players. 4-0 our favour Hail Hail
Celtic are so poor in Europe. They have been degrading the coefficient for years now.
celtic won possession nearly 60 to 40 % depending on whos data you believe, twice as many shots, somewhere between 2 to 3 times as many attacks than bodo, and thats being generous to bodo by my video analysis, so i am struggling to workout how you manage to lose 3 to1 .
except for a 10 minute period early in the first half, celtic had control.
that 10 minutes , bodo got ahead, and could have had a second, but celtic as alan has pointed out were wasteful.
so in my game journal, this is the sequence of celtic low IQ moments,
rogic chooses the wrong line to hit maeda making a run through the middle,
maeda hits the wrong man going right when 2 other players had more space in the box,
right side attack cross to the far post, when there was a better op near post ,
left side attack, cross to high for maeda,
possession from corner, ball goes right, should have gone left,
this was in the first 5 to 6 minutes before bodo scored. had there been better decision making on any of these occaisions , there would have been high probability scoring ops, and celtic 2 nil up, rather than 1 nil down.
the whole game is littered with these episodes of celtics poor decision making in attack, and not progressing the play when in attack. i could list them all, but you get the picture.
bodo are fast , mobile , athletic side, so they really taught celtic a lesson about transition play from offence to defence , and visa versa, with limited opportunities, because of celtics possession dominance, but they arent leverkrusen , who can hurt you in transition , and dominate possession.
in the 2nd half, you could count the amount of optimisable possessions in celtics defensive third , that bodo had , on one hand, and it yielded 2 goals, celtic had 4 times as many optimisable opportunites in bodos defensive third, and got just 1 goal..
bottom line is even if bodo, exposed some of the transition issues celtic have against mobile fast teams , higher quality decision making by celtic would have meant celtic burying 4 or 5 past bodo, and wiining 5 to 3 , rather than losing 3 to 1.
this has been the issue all season, low IQ in attack, and hopefully its rectified in the away leg.
i will end on my pet subject,
bodos left back was impressive, athletic and fast, so why arent boli or eroghede playing, instead of taylor , and subing for juranovic at times.
