Craig Gordon Takes Aim at ‘Over the top’ Chris Sutton

CRAIG GORDON has hit back at former Celtic striker turned media pundit Chris Sutton after the Englishman singled him out for criticism last week.

The invincible shot-stopper has been left baffled by some of Sutton’s statement and believes the pundit is getting personal.

Gordon was quick to point out his achievements with the club.

“My record against any other Celtic goalkeeper would stand up in terms of wins. The last time I lost a domestic game was against Aberdeen about a year and a half ago.

“I think he goes over the top at times and I know I’m not the only one to perceive that. There are other guys in our squad who receive as much, if not more, criticism than me.

“I’m not sure it’s a personal thing, but it seems to be.

“This is now my fourth season. I don’t agree with an awful lot of what he says, but I suppose that’s the case for half the players in Scottish football. I’m not alone.”

Chris Sutton is a highly controversial figure within Scottish football and doesn’t hold back with his opinions. One thing the pundit does pride himself on is not being a lapdog for any club regardless of affiliation like Derek Johnstone etc. – If he has an opinion on you, positive or negative, you’re going to hear about it.
