CELTIC fell to a frustrating defeat at Ibrox today.
Both sides at their periods of dominance and Celtic missed a fantastic opportunity to take the lead. A draw would have been a fair result but, unfortunately, we have to take the defeat on the chin.
One major talking point during and after the game was Kyogo Furuhashi’s position. The Japanese frontman was put out wide by Ange Postecoglou today and Edouard got the nod up front. When Eddy went off and Kyogo went through the middle, we actually made more chances and the wee man could have scored.
It’s left many Celtic fans of the opinion that Kyogo is wasted out wide and should 100% be our first choice striker – through the middle.

Starfelt was absolutely colossal at the back, won everything. Kyogo through the middle from the kickoff and it’s a different game. Surprised Ange never changed it sooner as Bolugun had him covered all day.

Celtic suffer their second defeat of the season and will now have to play catch up. Things aren’t lost yet and we must bounce back after the international break.
There’s a lot of football to be played and players to be bedded in to this side. I’m confident in our direction, but there’s going to be bumps along the way.
