Still nowhere near our best but nonetheless a great result on the road to 7-in-a-row!
Thought Brown was fairly solid, a few stray passes from himself and Ntcham. Our midfield lacks a runner who times his runs into the box, and in behind the defence, as you two have both highlighted. Rogic runs 'with' the ball and is excellent at it, albeit he is well short of sharpness at the moment. CalMac used to do it instinctively but looks as though he is under stricter orders from BR this season. Armstrong is another who has a natural instinct for doing it but he's still injured and will require time to find his feet once he returns.
It's an area we greatly profited from last season as was shots and goals from outside the box.
The former means fewer options/takers for the final ball and the latter is a major contributor to our lack of goals.
Griff's goal threat and general play cannot be underestimated especially with Dembele being out of form and misfiring, whilst Edouard has been more miss than hit if truth be told.
Injuries from 'operation stop Celtic' have taken their toll.
