Chris Sutton has left seven Celtic players out of his Team of the Week.
The BT Sport pundit selected Emilio Izaguirre, Ryan Christie, Callum McGregor and James Forrest but that wasn’t enough to satisfy some hoops supporters.

Benkovic? He gets missed every week and he’s been an absolute brick wall for us.

I would have Benkovic in every week as he strolls it

Benkovic started most of celtic attacks by stepping out of defence with the ball and stretching the midfield.

There was decent cases to be put up for most of Brendan Rodgers’ squad to be included.
Even though it was a 5-1 victory Filip Benkovic towered above most other players on the park.
The on loan Leicester defender was a rock at the back and always looked comfortable on the ball stepping forward to start attacking moves.
Scott Sinclair’s return to form continued with the former Aston Villa man playing a key role in stretching the Kilmarnock defence.
Saturday’s match was Celtic’s third match in seven days, after making changes for the midweek draw at Motherwell it looks like the A-team are back, fit and raring to go.
