Celta Vigo hit for 5 at home again.

[GlasgowGooner]

It was Deportivo one month ago now it was fellow relegation candidates Real Soceidad tonight who won 5-2, roll on Feburary if their in this form

 

[bobbypires]

Pathetic. Hope they play like this against Arsenal and they'll recieve more than 5.

 

[SydneyGunnerFan]

they are playing like sh*t at the moment and hope they keep playing that way so we can smash them aswell

 

[JazzG]

Rumour has it their coach will be sacked soon, not sure if that is a good thing or bad :?

good thing: same thing happened to Inter. removed Cuper, brought in Zaccheroni and we all know what happened ...

 

[JazzG]

what if they suddenly bring in some super coach?

Still we should beat them, if we don't then I'm gonna be seriously pissed off. However I think we will win though, playing the away leg first is a big bonus. If you wanna win these ties you gotta win your home leg and celta will be under big pressure to win so they will have to go for us.

 

[laolu]

we'll beat them home AND away even if Fergie is their coach

I have no problem wiv Celta

 

[JazzG]

I said super coach not drunk coach

Yeah we should beat them, some spanish footy fan was saying they are struggling badly and we should beat them easily.

Only bad thing about this tie is we gotta go to Stamford Bridge on the Saturday, we can get a result there but as always it will be a tough match. Then on Tuesday we gotta be in spain to face Celta,

 

[laolu]

:wink:

even lippi, cuper, del bosque, ranieri, ... can't stop us from winning

the chelsea game is an early kickoff: that could help

 

[Mark]

there's no way a team like this is gonna cause us any problems we cant deal with. we'll beat them home and away. no problem.

 

[Andrew]

How did they get into the next round of the CL? If they play like they're doing in the Spanish then we should thrash them. But there shouldn't be any easybeats in the second round surely.

I was in the Nou Camp for their 1-1 draw against Barca. They were pathetic. They went up against the run of the play with a Lehmann - Viduka-esque goal and then just sat back with a 5-4-1 for the rest of the game. They had no attack, no midfield and their defence had gaping holes. Ronaldinho had all the space in the world to run about in, if Henry gets the same luxury it will be a goal fest. Barca had 2 goals disallowed too.

But they still drew against Barca? What is happening over there at Barca? :shock:

Anyway...either the Spanis league is really strong that the 4th placed team last season is now the 4th from the bottom (I think, about there anyway), or last season was just a fluke for Celta.

Let's hope it was just a fluke. I don't see them troubling us too much..but then again, I went into Loko and Dynamo games thinking that... :?

 

[GoonerGurjit]

Plain and simply we're too good for Celta. I expect us to win by 3 or 4 on aggregate.

 

[AFCG7]

they will definitely try to mark Henry and Pires with that 5-4-1 formation.

 

[patrick42uk]

their manager has just been sacked. Imagine if hector cuper took over

 

[Pepe LeFrits]

'try'

Barcelona just wasted their chances. They dominated the game but didn't finish Celta off. Couple of good saves by the keeper/the bar kept them out. + Barca aren't very good atm either.

 

[baccy_man]

this confirms the sacking

Lets just pray we wont underestimate them
