Chris Sutton has slapped down another TalkSPORT attention seeker putting the boot into Celtic.
Drive Time presenter Darren Gough decided to belittle Celtic’s 63 match unbeaten run but was quickly put in place about the inadequacies of the so-called greatest league in the world.
.@btsportfootball Brilliant achievement from Celtic and Brendan Rodgers ????????????

Is it really? Or does it show the embarrassment standard of the Scottish game. https://t.co/kG97pi92Im

After watching the first half of the English Premier League today I’d be more concerned about the standard of the best league in the world! https://t.co/VySrwsz6GI

While English sides are faring well in the group phase of the Champions League Everton have picked up one point from four Europa League ties. During the summer Ronald Koeman spent £140m on his squad.
Although the SPFL is clearly inferior to the EPL it requires an incredible level of professionalism to go unbeaten in 63 matches.
Along the way Celtic have competed twice in the Champions League where they drew twice with Manchester City.
Last season Pep Guardiola’s side never recovered from the 3-3 draw with Celtic which ended their 100% start to the season. This season City have opened up with nine wins and one draw in their opening ten EPL fixtures.
