    Laidlaw

    Unfortunately not good enough. Celtic have had 2 shots and both pretty weak and he couldn’t manage to get strong enough hands on them.

    Marciano guaranteed back in next game.

    He's a very good backup keeper but in games like this Marciano should be starting.

    Never really rated him but to be fair he’s been solid the past few games. Marciano definitely the better option.

    Get him hooked at half time.

    The two goals should have been saved and Rocky probably would have.

    What’s the point of defending soundly if your keeper does that? ****ing brutal.

    He's crashed and burned today

    However, he shouldn't have been playing today

    I don't rate Rocky. I don't rate Laidlaw either. However I would've played Laidlaw today but he's had a shocker.

    Laidlaw has been a good back-up goalie but today's performance will see Rocky back on Tuesday !

    Cant blame lennon for starting him when he has done nothing wrong up till today. The gloves are/were his to keep. Unfortutly for us this appears to be the day he loses them

    It’s not a lynch mob mate, it’s opinions based on what we’ve all seen

    Hardly lynch mob. It’s not just a bad game. The 2nd goal is an embarrassing mistake.

    Also those that say Marciano isn’t much better must be on something! He’s an international goalkeeper and makes good saves. I don’t have much confidence in laidlaw saving shots, today has reinforced my concerns.

    He’s a decent enough number 2 but he is not a number 1 at this level.

    Laidlaw could have done better. 2nd a bad mistake but defending soundly? Lustig left alone at back post twice

    There have been a few players, if not most of them, playing utter pish. Seems a bit unfair to ignore them and just highlight the guy whose mistakes inevitably leads to goals conceded.

    Unfortunate and should be doing better but didn't get much help from the defence at both goals.

    We’ve done well to restrict them and our game plan would be working if he’d saved those shots.

    Ok the defending wasn’t the best for the first but it’s piss weak hands.

    We all have watched Rocky make mistakes in a Hibs jersey too. Our keepers have both been poor under Lennon.

    Ross has been very good until today and Barker and Gray also had a big part to play in their goals. If they had done their jobs Ross wouldn't have had a save to make. The two outfield players who Lennon brought in heavily involved in both Celtic goals. Why change the defense yet again. I presume Whittaker must be fit as he is on the bench

    The biggest thing for me is the way Ofir was treated after what, a couple of mistakes? The fans making out as if he's *****.

    He's our number one. An international GK.

    Laidlaw is a more than adequate back up. He's made a couple of mistakes today but if the defenders of the crosses done their job the ball would have been nowhere near him

    Yep. International keeper and more experience.

    It’s piss weak defending from Barker and Gray before it gets anywhere near the keeper. If they’d done their job, the game plan would be working.

    Marciano was dropped for Yom Kippur afaik. Nothing to do with mistakes.

    Defending at both goals was pretty poor but Laidlaw 100% should’ve done better at both goals. He is fortunate that Svilar (Benfica goalkeeper) made a worse mistake this week but that 2nd goal reminds me of Makalambay and other such goalkeepers.

    Laidlaws hands flops at both goals and neither shot had power, that is very worrying for a goalkeeper. Should have strong wrists and make sure that he gets the ball away from the goal, not weak wrists that mean he barely deviated the balls course.

    This is why the "You can't blame Lennon for starting him" and "They're his gloves untill he makes a mistake" stuff doesn't wash with me. Laidlaw was always going to be more likely to make a mistake in a game like this.

    You make the big and potentially unpopular decision to start Marciano and you're at worst 1-0 down just now, maybe even 0-0. You can't shirk responsibility for big decisions.

    I’m sorry but this is Celtic and they’re going to create chances and have shots. They’ve had two and scored two that the keeper has got his hands to.

    most of the blame lies at Laidlaws feet...or hands.

    I'm talking about from the fans. Not team selection.

    Ross was given the RC game as a warm up for Celtic. Ofir should have come back in after that imo

    Fans reaction particularly after the Motherwell game was over the top. Probably how some will be towards Laidlaw after today. I've already read he's ***** and a huddy

    Marciano has made some very very good saves for us though. Laidlaw has been ok in games we’ve dominated and makes ok saves. Marciano is an international goalkeeper for a reason. Laidlaw is nowhere near getting capped for Scotland for a reason.
