Lennon's twitter engages fans- and others
The Celtic boss found few backers for his decision to play Efe Ambrose which the hoops boss admitted was a risk.
Ambrose was at fault for the first and third goals scored by Juve but rather than hide from the decision Lennon took to twitter to discuss the matter with his 180,000 plus followers.
Explaining his decision to pick Ambrose the Celtic boss tweeted: “I wanted the pace at centre-half plus he and Kelvin Wilson been fantastic together in Europe.”
While twitter brings communication to the masses it also gives the abusive their chance to gain 15 minutes of fame with cheap criticisms thrown at the Celtic boss.
The hoops enjoyed more possession than they did against Barcelona, pinning Juventus back for long periods and forcing them into some desperate defending at corners with the assistance of Spanish referee Alberto Mallenco.
As the various interpretations of the game were thrown at him Lennon replied: “You must have been watching a different game from me . . . we pegged them back for long periods of the game.”
Lennon added: “Utter rubbish . . . they wanted control of the game but the players never let them breathe . . . our pressing was great.
“Just a stereotypical way of looking at the game . . . there is no depth to your opinion on the game.”
Some old school types suggested that twitter wasn’t the place for Lennon to discuss team matters with the Celtic boss delivering a straightforward solution: “Don’t follow me then.”
