Pep, could you find player ratings for the Bayer Leverkusen and Celtic games?
No Iason, but we'll try to look for it (well, certainly for Crosas) next season.
I watched a bit of this game. Crosas was polished in distribution but he has to do more as a DM.
The challenges he makes are something like sticking a leg out after the ball has already passed, i.e he doesn't serious about trying to win the ball. He has to add a bit more steel to his game, make himself more of a threat to really stand a chance of getting into a top team.
While initially I wanted Barça to bring him back sooner, I now think it would good for him to stay at Celtic till 2010. After that I think he might a good option for us. Might turn out to be better than Busquets.
played like someone who'd won a competition to play in celtics midfield. absolutely gutless. and in an old firm game that is unforgivable. league is over.
