Craig Gordon
This is how poor Celtic were at the back. The goalie at one point had to come out to defend with his head as Hibs ot forward and then tried to find a man with a pass. It was more than his defenders could do. No chance with the goals. 6
Kristoffer Ajer
Did not look comfortable at all on the right of a back three. Couldn’t find a man with a pass, was weak in the tackle and kept turning back the way. Apart from that…. 4
Jozo Simunovic
Turned far too easily at the first goal. His day (season) was summed up when he tried to shoulder charge Florian Kamberi, a much smaller man, out the way and ended up on the ground. Has to be on borrowed time. 3
Filip Benkovic
Was okay in the first-half, at least he looked like a centre-half, but by the end his passing was as woeful as his attempts to stop Hibs from attacking. He is badly missing Dedryck Boyata. 4
Scott Sinclair
In fairness, a couple of good crosses deserved more, but this was another nothing performance and while it pains me to say it, he is no longer worthy of even a place on the bench. Subbed as he always is. 3
He and Ntcham can’t play in the same team. For the first time under Rodgers, the captain struggled to keep tabs on the opposition. Celtic still need him but with more legs around about him. Booked. 4
Olivier Ntcham
Was at fault for the second goal on a number of occasions, which takes some doing. This was awful from such a good player. Two free-kicks hit the wall and that is simply not good enough. One pass went straight out of play. 3
Callum McGregor
Sure, he is adaptable but to get the best out of McGregor, he needs to be in central midfield as a playmaker. He is being moved around to accommodate inferior team-mates. 5
Emilio Izaguirre
He did fine in attack but forgot about the word ‘back’ in wing-back. It’s unfair to criticise him too much, but this game showed was how much Celtic rely on Kieran Tierney. Subbed. 4
James Forrest
The one Celt who could look himself in the mirror. Got past men, created chances which team-mates weren’t close to taking and never gave up. Rodgers needs a few more like him. 6
Odsonne Edouard
Twice didn’t get into the six yard box when the ball was played across. Was greedy, a trait that he has to sort out, and then got booked for a dive. He needs help up there in his own, but this was poor. Subbed. 3
Substitutes
Lewis Morgan
Put on at 2-0 and almost scored. He brought some life to a dormant team. 5
Jonny Hayes
Hard to know what he is bringing to the party. 4
Mikey Johnston
Some superb footwork set-up Morgan for his chance, 5
