Chris Sutton doesn’t wrap his words in cotton wool when it comes to football and his thoughts on the pending exit of Keiren Tierney are no different.
The ex-Celtic striker was actually commentating on the Celtic V CKR Cluj game last night when the news started to break that a fee had been agreed with Celtic and Arsenal.
Sutton waited after the game to Tweet his thoughts that were clearly aimed at the Celtic board.
Big away goal from James Forrest 1-1 đź‘Źđź‘Ź Big news is Tierney looks done to Arsenal… if that’s the case Celtic need to bring at least two in if Neil Lennon is to have a chance of being successful… not to do this would be negligent…

The BT pundit clearly not happy with his first Tweet he later posted another message just to get the point across.
Fact…No excuses from the Celtic board not to spend now… with 9 and 10 very possible and the Champions League riches very close…

It was around this time last season that Celtic got caught cold when Moussa Dembele left Celtic for France which left Celtic short up front. Towards the end of 2018 Celtic had no recognised striker for the month of December with both Edouard and Griffiths out injured. Hopefully Celtic have learned from this and fans can see a flurry of activity as the Scottish transfer window ends.
