CHRIS SUTTON didn’t pull any punches as he described Celtic’s current form on BT Sports Tuesday evening before Aberdeen and Hibs did battle.

The Englishman was scathing in his criticism of the so called ‘Big game players’ at Celtic and described Rodgers brand of football as boring.

The former Celtic striker will always give you his honest opinion, so nobody should take this as anything other than that as the club try to navigate choppy waters.

“Things aren’t good, it has to be said.

“Celtic have been desperately poor this season. They are boring to watch.

“Very, very ordinary and they need to liven themselves up.

“Too many of their so-called big players have under-performed, simple as that.”

However, Sutton believes Brendan Rodgers comments on Kris Boyd focusing on his own situation at Kilmarnock was ‘harsh’. The BT pundit was asked his take on the Rodgers pre-match comments and didn’t think they were necessary.

The Celtic manager simply said that Kris should stick to trying to get back in the Kilmarnock team rather than speculate on his club’s fortunes.

Rodgers could have been more scathing in his criticism but said just enough to a question he was asked in his press conference.

Absolutely nothing harsh about it Chris.
