Celtic had to settle for a draw away from home against Lithuanian champions FK Suduva on Thursday night, a result that has disappointed most fans of the club.
The Hoops rushed ahead just two minutes into the UEFA Europa League play-off tie, before conceding a dreadfully soft goal from a set-piece.
The match finished 1-1.
While much of the criticism from supporters was aimed at the defence again, there’s no denying that Brendan Rodgers’ side were wasteful in attack, missing a number of chances throughout the 90 minutes.
One player singled out was Moussa Dembele, who looked well below his best, missing one golden opportunity in the second half after good work from Olivier Ntcham.
His effort levels were not at the heights many fans expect from him and they’ll be hoping for more in the return leg at Celtic Park next week.
Surely we can see off FK Suduva in front of our own supporters?
Fans took to Twitter this evening to share their thoughts on Dembele’s performance…
Dembele is a great player when he wants to be, but he just half arses it far too often. He seems to think some games are beneath him. #SUDCEL #Celtic #CelticFC

Fannying about at the back drives me crazy @CelticFC . SORT YHIS SHIT OUT! Like watching pre-season pish with no intensity or attacking threat. Dembele isn't interested ๐ก

Dembele and Ntcham are the walking epitome of laissez-faire in this game
