Chris Sutton says there is one thing Brendan Rodgers simply can’t do at Celtic right nowWith Rangers virtually level with Celtic, this season’s title race will be a fierce battle.
W7ith Celtic still top of the table having scored more goals than Rangers, Chris Sutton has said exactly what he thinks Brendan Rodgers can’t do if he still wants to retain the title this season.Sutton said [BBC Football Daily]:
“There are complaints and grumblings at Celtic and the fan base is not happy, or there is a certain section of the fan base not happy with that, about different things that we don’t have.
long enough to enter.“But I mean the one thing Rangers can’t afford and I don’t think they will because I don’t think the manager will allow them to is to become complacent.
“We’ve seen them become complacent in recent seasons.
But things can still resolve quickly.
You know, the Rangers certainly couldn’t solve it.
I don’t think Philippe Clement says this is the case.
“Celtic for sure, their title dreams aren’t over yet. Celtic haven’t performed at Ange Postecoglou’s level this season, that’s clear, but it’s a level assessment. “They have to play each other twice and Celtic have beaten Rangers so far in direct matches.“
But the Rangers’ comeback is pretty phenomenal. It’s a different team.
They have a different attitude and a serious manager.
Celtic can’t drop any more points this season Brendan Rodgers and Celtic fans know this, but now that Rangers are neck and neck, the need for greater consistency is more urgent than ever.
Recent wins against Hibs and Ross County have been far from impressive and, to be honest, points could easily have been dropped in both game
However, against St Mirren the team looked more cohesive and had a more attacking intent.
But defensively Celtic still looked shaky in Paisley.
A makeshift back four hasn’t been of much help, as three of our four starting defenders are currently still on the treatment table.
Let’s hope Greg Taylor returns and will soon be followed by Cameron Carter-Vickers.
Having a solid backline will be a big help heading into the final thirteen games of the season as any further mistakes could be the difference in this title race.
