    It’s Brendan Rogers ego that’s at fault,ridiculous setup that’s been dismantled…..

    He gets a mention for that goal here too.
    Guirassy turned Liam Scales one way and another before stabbing home the sixth in the 66th minute.
    Rough night for Celtic.

    Good performance from him this evening in Bergamo,playing in a side seemingly incapable of stopping crosses coming in a clean sheet was a decent outcome,they missed plenty of chances of course but he in particular deserved a bit of luck I think….

    Starts on the bench tonight against RB Leipzig; Trusty plays instead.

    Was dropped for the last league game against Dundee; came on for the last quarter of an hour. Second half sub against Aberdeen at the weekend in the League Cup too

    Hardly injured if he's coming off the bench - but seems a bit harsh to go from MotM one Champions League night to the bench the next?

    Would be a concern for sure,Carter Vickers seems to be the first choice anyway and it feels like they’re trying to get a partnership with Trusty started,a shame for Scales if it turns out like that…

    They could have at least done the right thing and kept playing him until January before selling him to someone panicking

    Came on as a sub again for the last 15 minutes - slightly unusual for a centre-back to be coming off the bench so often, so I guess Rodgers is trying to keep him still in the first-team picture.

    It's enough football and recent good form that I'd definitely still have him start the two Ireland games anyway, he'd hopefully still be pretty sharp and fresh, that game time will do him a lot of good coming up to Christmas period then where Celtic will surely have to rotate some matches being involved in everything still.

    Probably being rested. He's only come on as a sub in the last three games. Up to that, he'd played 90 minutes in every game this season.
    Only Schmeichel and Hatate have played more games than him this season.

    Being rested for what, the behemoth that is Kilmarnock this weekend? Surely in a vital home CL clash against German opposition, Rodgers thoughts were laid bare on what he considers his best available team. Sadly - and without much ado from non-Irish bhoys - Scales and Idah aren't in it. In fact, the latter must be damn frustrated with his increasingly bit-part role.

    Agreed - you don't rest players for RB Leipzig at home (key to their progression at this stage) in order to have a fit team against Killie.

    There may be some other reason, but I don't think "Probably being rested" makes sense.

    More likely to be carrying a knock and being used spareingly i would have thought.
    Alternativly maybe Rodgers has made a move away from him , i dont watch enough Celtic games to know how he has been playing

    He's been playing fine but Trusty was brought in to play and Scales is third pick for the two centre back positions. Obviously a team needs more than two CBs and Scales will continue to have an important role to play as a backup centre back as Celtic will play in the region of 60 games across all competitions this season. But he's certainly not being rested against Leipzig so that he can be kept fresh for Kilmarnock or whoever.
