BT Pundit Gives Big Verdict on Celtic’s Striker Options

CHRIS SUTTON believes Brendan Rodgers should start Moussa Dembele at Hampden on Sunday even after watching Leigh Griffiths score a goal within 50 seconds of coming on against Hamilton last week.

The former Celtic striker does rate Griffiths but he rated Dembele just that bit more and given the Frenchman’s record in Glasgow Derbies, he’s giving the edge to Moussa.

‘I understand the clamour for Leigh Griffiths. He is fit again and scored within 50-odd seconds of coming on last week.’ Sutton acknowledged.

But Rodgers should go with Moussa Dembele. That’s nothing against Griffiths because I really rate him.

But Dembele is ahead of him in terms of match fitness.
