Chris Sutton takes issue with Callum McGregor after Celtic’s Rangers defeat

Former Celtic striker Chris Sutton has criticized current captain Callum McGregor following Celtic's 1-0 defeat to Rangers. Sutton took issue with McGregor's pre-match comments comparing the current squad to Martin O'Neill's historic Celtic side. McGregor had reportedly described O'Neill's team as being more direct, a claim Sutton strongly disputed on social media.

Sutton argued that O'Neill's team succeeded because they possessed a blend of physicality and creativity, allowing them to adapt during matches. He stated that the current Celtic team lacked both qualities and failed to adapt during the derby defeat, which was decided by a Ryan Naderi goal.
