PSG are far better at home than away in the CL. They pumped Barcelona in Paris only for their collective back ends to collapse in Spain.

I'm glad Celtic beat Anderlecht and I think they may now have a chance against Bayern. I just don't think there's enough evidence yet to say PSG are the finished article.

Irrespective of home away or wherever, beating Bayern by 3 shows a quality team who are flying at the moment. Basically better sides than Celtic will take a gubbing of PSG this season, Bayern being one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On paper and eventually the records will show celtic finally won away from home and kept a clean sheet. The reality is they won against a struggling side in a league which is not that much better than Scotland. They won, they can be happy and go on with confidence but this is not the incredible performance it being made out to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I took the time I could probably trawl through their clubs recent European results and find something to disprove that pretty quickly but frankly I can't be bothered. You can't be coming away with crap like that whilst hyping up wins against the likes of Groningen and Rijeka (which I agreed were excellent btw). No one's saying it was an incredible performance and the first half hour most certainly wasn't. But when was the last time you saw a Scottish team totally dominant in terms of possession, chances and about every other stat and come away with a 3-0 win in Europe away from home?

The Belgian League had four teams qualify for the Europa League group stages last season, three of whom qualified for the knock-out stages, two teams in the QFs (one of whom beat the third Belgian qualifier in the last 16), and has a team in the CL group stages and EL group stages this season. By contrast, Scotland hasn't delivered two teams beyond the qualifying stages of both tournaments since 2008-09. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a good win and I'm sure you and the rest of the celtic fans will be happy to get that elusive away win, I was only pointing out that Anderlecht are in turmoil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
