If I'm being honest dmac, I'm struggling to see how the system is actually supposed to work. As far as I see it BOTH fullbacks will be exposed. For this system to work we'll need better tactical understanding from our midfield players.That, and a level of fitness to allow them to cover the grass when we don't have the ball and our fullbacks leave space which is easily exploited. I've spent my life watching our club playing in a certain way. We've even given it a name.....the Celtic way. However, much as I love to watch the team attacking, I would be lying if I said I wasn't worried about our defence.
The balance in our midfield also seems wrong to me. Maybe I'm stuck in some kind of time warp and so don't quite grasp the modern thinking, but for me too many players with the same skills leads to a lack of balance. I can only hope Ange will turn things round when he has our injured players back. Right now we look good for mid table. As it stands we now expect to give teams a chance or three.
