No really, look at their skills, performance and behavior on the pitch.
Zlatan is much more complete than Ronaldo imo. He's an artist. Seen the impossible goals he made ?
Also, they're of course both megalomanic, but Ronaldo cries and complains with every single fault and is much more selfish.

@ Sergio : how is Courtois doing ? I can't watch all the matches here... Is he as good as he was with Genk and the national team ? I saw him at the stadium a couple of times and hell what a talent

Amen regarding Ibrahimovic and Cristiano.

Courtois is brilliant here, people love him and his performance is awesome at Atletico's goal. Surely a keeper for them (sorry, bad pun)

I couldn't watch the game but I can understand your comment when I look at the starting line-up and see no Flamini.

They are capable in defense itself but cannot stop anything coming at them around the middle of the park which allows teams to flood the back four. They play some lovely stuff going forward but I can't see them grinding out gritty results when it matters.

Another fantastic result for Celtic at home in the CL. Brilliant night.

Congrats Pedro, but you've got to say Celtic were pretty lucky.
Ajax played very bad and got 2 very stupid goals in, but still we managed to create at least 4 good oppurtunities.

Ah well CL adventure is over, maybe we could become third, don't think winning at home against Celtic shouldn't be a big problem. But to be honest I really don't care about going in to the Europe League....

I wouldn't say we were lucky but we certainly battled and ground the result out. Considering the players we had missing, it was a great result for us.

Your guys are missing a little bit of experience but I'd still expect you to turn us over in a few weeks if we played like we did last night.

Maybe lucky isn't the right. But Ajax had some really big chances, should have scored at least 3 times. But like you said Celtic really fight for it, Ajax hasnt enough players who are able to put up a fight.

Loved the atmosphere by the way. Great stadium and fans
