Chris Sutton and Frank McAvennie react to Celtic signing’s match winning goal

Celtic picked up a 1-0 win over Dundee United earlier today and Albian Ajeti came off the bench to score the winner for the Scottish giants. The striker joined from West Ham this summer and he will be delighted with the start he has made to his Celtic career.

The Hoops struggled to create too many chances and they will be glad to have picked up the three points in the end. Celtic were firm favourites heading into the game but they were not at their best today. The Hoops will have to perform better if they want to retain their title this season.

Report: Celtic in pole position to land Newcastle target, 28-yr-old prefers Parkhead move

Report: Lennon wants 27y/o 3 yrs after Rodgers tried to sign him for Celtic

According to Daily Record, Celtic are keeping tabs on Reading centre-back Liam Moore as manager Neil Lennon looks to bolster his backline for the new season. The Hoops know the 27-year-old well as former boss Brendan Rodgers was keen on bringing him to Parkhead three years ago, and a move could finally work out as he is out of favour at the English side. Reading are also willing to offload higher earners due to financial issues, and while they value Moore around £4.5 million, they are open to doing business for a slightly lesser fee. Celtic’s first-choice defensive target is Brighton & Hove Albion’s Shane Duffy, but they face stiff competition for his signature with Premier League sides also keen on him. They see Moore as a solid back-up option and the ability of the former England you...

‘Waste of a jersey’, ‘Miles off the pace’ – Some Celtic fans react to midfielder’s display today

Celtic picked up a 1-0 win over Dundee United in the Scottish Premiership earlier today thanks to a late winner from summer signing Albian Ajeti. The Swiss striker came off the bench to win the game for Neil Lennon’s side but the Hoops were far from convincing today. Dundee United managed to cause them all sorts of problems and Celtic must improve if they want to win the title this season. So far, Rangers have looked better this season and Lennon will demand better performances from his players in the coming weeks. One of the key weaknesses for Celtic right now is their midfield. Scott Brown is past his peak and Neil Lennon needs to replace him. The 35-year-old is a club legend but his form has dipped massively. The Celtic midfielder was mediocre today and the opposition managed to stroll ...

Report: Celtic preparing a £2m plus bid for 21-yr-old, Lennon tried to sign him last year

Celtic are looking to sign the Motherwell midfielder David Turnbull this summer.
