Chris Sutton In Damning Celtic Verdict After Sunday Defeat

Celtic suffered their first league defeat of the campaign at the hands of Kilmarnock this afternoon. The Hoops were beaten by two goals to one in Ayrshire in the Sunday rain.

Particularly in the second half, the champions did not in any way live up to the expectations of the supporters. Post-match, Chris Sutton came out with a damning verdict. He said (X): “That second-half performance was one of the worst I’ve seen from a Celtic team. You can be outplayed but you can’t be outfought and outrun.”

Few can argue with the former Celtic striker. If Hoops fans thought the first-half in Perth was bad last week, their team’s performance in the second forty-five was even worse today.

Things need to get better quickly. There are huge concerns surrounding the team at the minute, which is not what is needed building up to a crucial Glasgow derby in a few weeks.
