EDINBURGH, Aug 7 (AFP): Celtic manager Ronny Delia says he takes full responsibility after his side exited the Champions League following a resounding 6-1 aggregate defeat to Legia Warsaw in their third round qualifying match at Murrayfield.
The Hoops boss, who replaced Neil Lennon in the summer, had called for more energy and urgency from his side following their humbling 4-1 defeat in the first leg in Poland last week.
However, there was no notable improvement from the Hoops as goals from Michal Zyro and Michael Kucharczyk handed the Scottish champions a 2-0 second leg defeat to end their hopes of a third successive season in the Champions League. "Of course it is my responsibility but also I need time to get my ideas across and get the players I want to come in and get the best out of the players here," Delia said.
