Gingerpele 0 Posted October 23, 2012 Don''t quite know why Celtic think they have a chance.Seen a few fans on Twitter suggest they are going to put a fiver on Samaras to score first, or Celtic to win.While anyone can win any game, Celtic are no where near the level of Arsenal/Man.U/Chelsea in the CL, and those three have had to play some of their best games to get close to Barca. Chelsea found a way (well copied Mourinho at Inter''s way) of ''beating'' Barca. To be honest, Celtic will have done well if they managed to lose by 3.

Unhinged Canary 375 Posted October 23, 2012 I think Celtic will get at least one. Barca''s defence is woeful at the moment. It''s just unfortunate that their attack is reasonably good.......Plus you can get odds of around 7-5 for BTTS tonight which is a massive price! [Y] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gingerpele 0 Posted October 23, 2012 Barcelona don''t really have a defence.Alves is pretty much a winger. Alba the same. Both can play FB, but they are as attacking a FB as you''ll find.And then Puyol is injured about 70% of the season nowadays, Pique isn''t much better. So they play Song, Busquets & Mascharno as CBs. Masch is pretty good at CB now, since its pretty much the only position he''s played since joining Barca. But they are very dodgy at defending set pieces. And Valdes wouldn''t even make top 10 GKs in Europe. They''d be better off with Ruddy, and that isn''t even a joke, he probably is a better GK than Valdes.Both teams to Score is probably the best bet for every Barca game, because until Pique and Puyol are fit at the same time, or they buy another proper CB they are always going to look like conceding.

Renskay 33 Posted October 23, 2012 If they play Busquets at CB he''ll most certainly be wasted as he is a crucial player to have in the midfield Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Timmah 0 Posted October 23, 2012 [quote user="Renskay"]If they play Busquets at CB he''ll most certainly be wasted as he is a crucial player to have in the midfield[/quote] Yep, that''s swung it for me. 4-0 Celtic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fried_chicken 0 Posted October 23, 2012 I''d put money on there being at least 6 goals. Barca have an aweful defence at the moment but will tear Celtic apart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jonzey 0 Posted October 23, 2012 Celtic were 45-1 at one stage to win. Longest odds ever for a British Club away. Now best price is 25-1. High scoring game for me tonight, with the majority scored by Barca. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rondy 0 Posted October 23, 2012 Gary Hooper scoring the only goal in a 1-0 Celtic win = 115/1... (Holt was 100/1 to score the only goal in a 1-0 win over Arsenal) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shankslad 0 Posted October 23, 2012 Well done Celtic! Looked like they were going to get the draw right up to the last seconds and surprised many with coming away from the Neu Camp with a narrow defeat. Forster had a very good game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gingerpele 0 Posted October 23, 2012 Haha, those guys who went for Samaras to score first will be pretty happy. I wouldn''t have ever been surprised at him scoring, just thought Barca would start strong after such a close result at the weekend.Well played Celtic though, 2-1 loss certainly is far from the worst result a team of their ability could have had at Barca, and to lose so late on, very unlucky.
