I agree that you can't entirely blame the manager for the poor goals we conceded. However, the lack of drive and tactics are on him, and his substitutions or lack of reaction are constantly questionable. Ramsey should have stayed on instead of Aribo for one. Agree that Roofe needed to stay on even though he was anonymous. However, I completely disagree that we were the better team. The "stats" may have been slightly in our favour but the tims managed the game well and didn't have to get out of 2nd gear. Everything was played in front of them and we never really looked like breaching their defence. Our tactic again seemed to revolve around floating balls into the box to a striker than can barely win a header and spends a lot of his time rolling on the floor. Celtic were happy to sit in, keep their shape and then break at pace (usually after we passed it to them).
I agree that attacking options were limited from the bench but there's always an alternative and it's his job to find the solution. I'd be very surprised if many fans thought we would get something from the game yesterday after they scored their 2nd.
Arfield is best when he can make 3rd man off the ball runs in behind but there was no space for that yesterday. Thought amad should have been given an opportunity as Aribo and Kent could still be playing now and wouldn't have scored. Davis should also have came on as we needed to recycle the ball better and he would have moved the celtic team potentially creating space for others. Football is a squad game with competition for places but gio doesn't seem to understand that. It'll likely be the same selection, performance and result in the semi unfortunately. Everyone knows the definition of insanity except for our manager.
