People here confusing ‘bigger’ with ‘quality’. Celtic are much bigger than Leicester. Leicester are tiny by comparison. As for quality, there’s no doubt that Leicester are better. Celtic would struggle in the Premier League and would be stuck in a relegation scrap.
Leicester winning the Premier League eclipses anything anyone has done in football over the last 20 years. It's the equivalent of someone like Hamilton winning the SPL and getting to the Europa League Round of 32. It's all relative to the club size and the finances they have. Celtic, for their current financial power, are probably sitting just where they should be.
alex ojideagu of course , they are , they are champions under Brian Clough and Taylor . But sad thing is they never win the league after that whereas Celtic continue to collect many trophies and still now ..
Celtic moaning about money as usual what about the other 11 scottish sides that dont have the money if only motherwell had celtic money they would win the league.
If only Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Dundee etc had more money invested into their cities. It would at least make the league competitive and actually watchable.
If 2 / 3 / 4 Scottish Prem teams (not Celtic or Rangers) were taken over by billionaire owners and started blowing Celtic and Rangers out the water it'd make the league so much better, it wouldn't even take much money with how little Celtic and Rangers spend. Then there would be 4 / 5 / 6 teams challenging for the title and it'd be a lot more interesting!
As a player in my prime I would 100% rather play in the Premier League for Leicester against Aguero, Pogba, Sala, Ozil than against St Mirren and St Johnstone... Sutton is delusional.
Kieran McLeish If it was just about money he would’ve gone to China. Looking at Leicester now, it’s very safe to say that Rogers made the right choice and he already hit the ceiling with what was possible at Celtic.
Exactly it shows ambition. He's gone to Leicester knowing it's a tough league. He's looked at players at Leicester and thinks he can get them European football. Once in Europe they have decent chance of going a fair distance. Celtic will continue to go backwards. Only one club offers competition in their domestic league. Low TV money so can't compete for players and getting embarrassed in Europe every year. Celtic and Rangers playing in England would eventually catch up probably. Currently though they would struggle to stay up in premiership.
Don’t understand the ignorance towards Scottish football ,Celtic and rangers have the biggest fan base in the uk ,I’m not talking who has the most tourists I’m talking fans who go home and away every week
Neutral here.. Leicester are a great team but regardless of the fact they have a better squad or bank balance they are nowhere near as big a club as Celtic. No where near.
@@millwallholdings But put Rangers and Celtic in the premier league, give them the tv money teams like Arsenal and Liverpool get and every player in the prem would want to come play for either. Sadly football is all about money these days.
@junkman19571 Aye the quality is not the best but we are giving our tv rights away for like 4 and 5 mil. The league needs proper funding and teams can attract better quality players.
have these premier league ex champions ever won a European Trophy? Do they pull 58,000 fans in for a game? Celtic reserves have bigger gates than Leicester City!
Because Celtic fans idolize him . They even watch Rangers matches because Sutton is on the punditry team and they know hell slate Rangers regardless of the result of the game .

We should say thankyou very much to Brendan Rodgers for leaving us a much better team than he inherited. I would also say that the league was already won for Celtic when he left.
Put it this way Leicester have been in the champions league once and Celtic have been in the champions league 15 years in the past 23 years and Leicester have gotten further than Celtic ever have.. I rest my case
The point being made is Celtic is a bigger club than Leicester and this point cant be argued. The reason why Leicester got further in the champions league is solely financial. If Celtic went into the English EPL they would be changeling for top 6 within in the first 5 years because of the size of the club which would attract major finical backing.
He wasn’t it’s a fact Celtic and rangers are far bigger clubs than the likes of mid table premier league teams I mean Celtic has a bigger stadium than anfield for a start
The sad reality is average nothing clubs in the Premier League have more spending power than all SPFL clubs combined. Celtic are in the top 10 biggest clubs in the world, Leicester aren’t in the top 50. This is the sad nature of modern football. All money is concentrated in 20 Premier League clubs, and no more than 7-10 other European clubs. I really hate modern football.

In 2000 O’Neill left Leicester (then a Premier league team, who had qualified for Europe) for Celtic, who at that time were lagging behind Rangers. Shows how times have changed!
If Celtic are so good why do they have to qualify for the Champions League .? Because they are in a pisspoor league and if not for the return of Rangers they clean up for eternity
I’m a Celtic fan. This is really straight forward. Celtic are a big big club in a fairly poor league. Leicester are a good club in the top league. Solved it
Nah mate they ain’t stick Ipswich in the spl they would probably be title contenders only a so called big team because they win the league with 10 league two teams and two championship teams all the best next season
I am a Celtic fan but I dont blame any of our managers for leaving to get a job in the premiership. Our league is easy to win and even if Rangers are competive its just us two.
Celtic and rangers would noss the premier league given the time and funding. They are both bigger than almost every club bar liverpool and United. They would receive investments and be given hindered of millions to compete with your tourist league 😂
Aberdeen fan here, we had Burnley in the Euros who are pushing top 6 in the premier league and they struggled against even us! Extra time to get past Aberdeen.... there are some players in the premier league that are worth more than the whole of Aberdeen FC. The money gulf may be there but the quality gulf isn’t, Celtic/Rangers would challenge within the top 6 in that league easy!
TheWillog if that the case Celtic have such a big following then why aren’t they bringing in the money lol club like Man Utd have lots of money because there following
A lot of people in this comment section are confused about the difference between a big club and a good team. Leicester are a much better team than Celtic but Celtic are a much bigger club.
Man U, Liverpool, Celtic, Arsenal, Rangers are the 5 biggest clubs in the UK. Everton, Villa, Leeds, Newcastle aren't nearly as big as Celtic or Rangers
Leeds are a big club also and Tottenham who I think are both as big as celtic/Rangers but the three big boys are arsenal/man u/Liverpool and are miles ahead of anyone else in the UK for everything and in Man utd case I would say after Madrid they are the 2nd Biggest club in the world.
Celtic would fill a 90000 seat stadium every week if they were in the premier League. Give them 5 or 6 seasons to sort it all out, the massive tv and sponsorship money, get the players in, sort the infrastructure out and they would challenge every year without doubt. And im not a Celtic fan it's just fact. The only club that would be bigger is Man Utd. Liverpool would be up there to.
In that case Besikta would do the same since they have insane and passionate supporters, give them the tv money and infrastructure and they'll be competing for the title lol, they could fill a 90000 stadium too
The truth can be hard to hear sometimes haha. the hole spl gets 30 million a season tv money, the premiership gets billions haha. English fans just can't admit celtic are probably the 2nd or 3rd biggest club in Britain, the only reason players choose smaller English clubs over them is the money and the league. If celtic were in the league how many teams would have more pulling power??
Roland Tubman the Turkish teams already have massive tv deal im pretty sure its like half a billion a year. They don't have the same global fan base its just facts
6:51 "Where's your ambition?" That might be the most ridiculous footballing quote of the year, playing for Celtic is known to be one of the least ambitious choices in modern football, they have virtually no competition in their league and are usually humiliated in Europe.
Yes, beating one of the best teams in Italy(Lazio) both home and away and also holding man city to draws both home and away in the 2016-17 season when they were named the best team in the world by the media is getting humiliated. Also, the last time Celtic played Leicester was against their best team ever(most of which is gone now) and it was a Celtic B team in a season where Celtic weren't even at their best and leicester only won on penalties
London premier league and a real challenge. Spl is Mickey Mouse. Top two are championship teams rest league one standard at best. Board didn’t back him last summer the way he wanted. Pure ambition
If Calum mcgregor n kieran tierney were english or had a spanish surname yous would be saying there worth 80mil the english thought theo walcott was finally going to be a world class player for about 15 years 😂
Calum McGregor used to play in the English championship and he couldn't cut it. If he was that good, prem clubs would have come in for him. Tierney I will admit is a good player but he will struggle in the premier league.
Lol but Celtic happy to snap up Scott Sinclair and make him a mainstay of the team (who was last playing at Villa I believe lol) By the time he leaves Celtic he'll be a god to yous 🤣🤣🤣
@@68iansutton McGregor played for them about 6 years ago lol he has improved greatly sense then idiot 😂 man city were struggling to deal with tierney when we played them he would easily be top 3 lbs in england
Brother Walfrid † tierney is a Southampton type player, no good for united or city etc. McGregor has only improved because the opposition has become mediocre at best since he moved to Celtic.
Not a Rangers or Celtic fan but they would be up there or there abouts in the EPL the tv money they would get,playing for two massive teams,playing in Epl ,big stars would flock in to play for them facts.More so Celtic right now they would be easy fighting for top 6 if they had the massive tv money others get.Its all about that cash.
in someways yes , but I still think both would be behind Liverpool Man U Man City Chelsea and Arsenal and Spurs , they just don't have the global followings of these teams.
@@lestajesta9682 Celtic have the 3rd largest stadium in the UK. Over 60000 fans sold out. Leicester might be half that. Also I have family in Canada and Australia and there are Celtic supporter clubs all over the world. I doubt there are any Leicester supporter clubs outside Leicester
The Scottish Premiership isn’t the highest standard but the real joke is the ‘English’ Premier League. Nothing English about it except the mugs who pay exorbitant prices so that their club’s new £150M signing Okonkwo Rodriguez can pay for his Bentley and wife’s breast implants.
Leicester won the league with less possession than nearly every opponent, legends at counter-attacking. Kante, Mahrez and Vardy a semi dream team. Maybe Brendan could offer something but I don’t expect anything
Hello. I am watching this in December 2020. Celtic are dead last in their Europa League group. Leicester are top of theirs and top 4 in the Prem. I'd say Rodgers made the right call lmao
@Vernon Francis Gallagher his rep was low after Liverpool so Celtic easy wins worthless trebles trebels but he got hammered in Europe always now he away to a better league
Celtic vs Man ut= 1-0 Celtic vs barca= 2-1 Celtic vs lazio= 2-1 Celtic vs Juventus= 4-3 Celtic vs real Madrid= 2-0 Celtic vs inter Milan= 2-1 And celtiic became the first British team to win the European cup (champions league)
They could get a top four finish in the Premier League at this rate and a Champions League spot at the expense of Arsenal, United, Tottenham and Chelsea. No small feat by any means, pretty incredible actually.
Celtic were the first British team in history to win a treble, world renowned fans that most premier league clubs couldn't even dream of, they are a bigger club. End of story
Celtic would struggle in the championship, these Scottish pundits are embarrassing. They’ve never had a world class player since Dalglish, Hanson, Bremner and Mackay. They sign has beens and second rate foreigners and don’t give youngsters a chance, just have a look at the national team. They are an absolute joke and I wonder why there matches are televised, they wouldn’t qualify from a group with the Faroe Islands and Luxembourg.
The people on the left of the soda talk sense. The people on the right, not so much. Celtic are indeed a big club. But challenging for top 4 in England is a totally different level of football.
Yes, recently Celtic have been dominant in the twelve team league that is the SPL, but they always struggle against mediocre sides in the Europa League! So a team that's reserves are bigger than current Premier League clubs should be fairing much better in Europe?! Chris Sutton his an absolute weapon, that spunk bubble needs to be kept off our airwaves!!!
I think Lescott’s point is a really valid one. How many prime players go to Celtic or Rangers? They don’t. Usually players blossom there and if they’re really talented they make the inevitable move to the Prem.
N Hartson is another walloper!! Still carrying that chip on his shoulder of when Rangers knocked him back ,,, Ronald de Boer or Hartson!! No brainer....
That farmer that has one England cap to his name and one Chelsea goal in 30 games - talks a load of rubbish. And he gets paid well for it. And we have to watch it and pay for it.
A reserve team in a tin pot league are bigger than an English Premier League winning team? And this coming from a Premier League winner with Blackburn. He should ask himself, would he have traded that win in '96 for another Scottish League medal? If the answer is yes he's deluded, if no he should understand why Rodgers left. Utter nonsense from the man.
@@pasqual87able No it isn't, it's the most competitive and exciting league. Ask yourself why so many top foreign players want to come here. It's not just for money, they can earn that in other countries.
@@pasqual87able No let's not...league form doesn't automatically translate to UCL form. Man City have been the best team in the PL for 2 years but they haven't won the UCL, although they stand a good chance this season.
Is he wrong? Both Glasgow teams outwiegh any English team when it comes to fan base and attendances, add the tycoon Sky money and we would be able to sign much higher calibre of players than the likes of Leicester, after a couple of seasons we would be pushing for top half finish every season then work on top 10/6/3 til eventual winners. Something the English could never stomach 😂😂
@@Jie67 I don't follow any Prem team so couldn't really care. He could be right. It's more how he thinks something is factual when it isn't. Its hypothetical really.
@@Jie67 He's a hypocrite, he doesn't have a problem with Celtic nabbing the best talent from all the other scottish clubs to make the league even more of a mismatch than it is, but when a manager leaves them for a PL club he moans
@@Jie67 alright then, best Players. The whole league basically feeds into Celtic, and they win nearly every game domestically, but when they get smashed by Bayern or barca in the ucl some of their fans bang on about the "financial gap", "we can't compete" when 10 of the 11 other teams in the Scottish prem can't compete with celtic. If Motherwell had celtic money they could challenge, Hibs, hearts, aberdeen, etc

People don't realise that Chris Sutton is trolling, he knows what he's doing, just look at the smirk on his face when he makes that outlandish comment.
Yep - he is paid to troll. It is his job.
I agree that Leicester have better players and more money but saying that Leicester have better fans and more support is completely stupid!
Go to Thailand let's see who has more supporters
MotionFlickz BiONiC go to America see who has more supporters...
@@Waharli Go to The USA, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Japan etc. Celtic are far far bigger. People in England don't seem to realize how big Celtic and Rangers are around the world.

MotionFlickz BiONiC worse reply av heard go to Thailand ? Oh aye the football capital of the world ya helmet
Sutton and Hartson showing the kind of loyalty to a club people arent used to seeing
In 2000 O’Neill left Leicester (then a Premier league team, who had qualified for Europe) for Celtic, who at that time were lagging behind Rangers. Shows how times have changed!
the days before the tv money that is
And they won the League Cup
@@nathan.6229 And know one outside of the UK cares about Scottish football
If Celtic are so good why do they have to qualify for the Champions League .?
Because they are in a pisspoor league and if not for the return of Rangers they clean up for eternity
At the First Qualifying Round no less...
Rodgers moved to manage in the biggest league in the world, the Scottish League is a farmers league in comparison
Is it aye funny how the 2 greatest managers in EPL history were both Scots 😂😂😂😂
Premier league is overrated
SteamingJunkie well said
richest league...full of over payed overrated players much of which will never win a trophy or medals..money has ruined football.
so he went to a famers club in the premier league makes sense
I’m a Celtic fan. This is really straight forward. Celtic are a big big club in a fairly poor league. Leicester are a good club in the top league.
Solved it
Nah mate they ain’t stick Ipswich in the spl they would probably be title contenders only a so called big team because they win the league with 10 league two teams and two championship teams all the best next season
I’m posting this comment while Leicester city sit proudly top of the EPL.I will post again in May 🤞
We just knocked united out 💙💙💙
Fa cup final soon
@@Mayank-kf2he cant wait
Leicester win the FA Cup!

I am a Celtic fan but I dont blame any of our managers for leaving to get a job in the premiership.
Our league is easy to win and even if Rangers are competive its just us two.
Youre squabbling for the scraps from longshanks table
I don’t think ur a Celtic fan Martin
Given that Celtic would barely survive in the premier league I’d say that’s bullshit.
Celtic and rangers would noss the premier league given the time and funding. They are both bigger than almost every club bar liverpool and United. They would receive investments and be given hindered of millions to compete with your tourist league 😂
I’m a Rangers fan and think Sutton is a knob, but he’s right....
I'm a celtic fan and I'll admit your 6 year old club is bigger than most EPL teams
as a celtic fan i agree rangers is a bigger club than 90% of the premier league
Aberdeen fan here, we had Burnley in the Euros who are pushing top 6 in the premier league and they struggled against even us! Extra time to get past Aberdeen.... there are some players in the premier league that are worth more than the whole of Aberdeen FC. The money gulf may be there but the quality gulf isn’t, Celtic/Rangers would challenge within the top 6 in that league easy!
TheWillog if that the case Celtic have such a big following then why aren’t they bringing in the money lol club like Man Utd have lots of money because there following
@@michaelfarrell4824 Celtic are not even bigger than any EPL teams under 23 sides .

Leicester haven't played European football for three and a half years but guarantee they'll go further in the Europa League than Celtic
But not rangers hahaha idiot

This hasn't age well xD
YES! ;P
Where did they end up finishing??
@@discodave1888 5th

A lot of people in this comment section are confused about the difference between a big club and a good team. Leicester are a much better team than Celtic but Celtic are a much bigger club.
Robbie savage needs a hiding for that barnett
There is not one good hairdo in that group. Chris Sutton only one which looks normal
Hartson is bald, ginger is receeding and he’s ginger lol and lescott has scars from his accident which has messed up his hairline.
Hartson has a brain tumour and other cancer 🙄🙄 chemotherapy affected him
As much as i hate Celtic & vice versa there is no denying that we're both far bigger then most clubs in the Premier League easily
Man U, Liverpool, Celtic, Arsenal, Rangers are the 5 biggest clubs in the UK. Everton, Villa, Leeds, Newcastle aren't nearly as big as Celtic or Rangers
Ive never seen anybody outside the UK or Ireland wearing a Celtic shirt
Leeds are a big club also and Tottenham who I think are both as big as celtic/Rangers but the three big boys are arsenal/man u/Liverpool and are miles ahead of anyone else in the UK for everything and in Man utd case I would say after Madrid they are the 2nd Biggest club in the world.
Bobby Dazzler u should c it in Baghdad it’s hoaching with them

Celtic would fill a 90000 seat stadium every week if they were in the premier League. Give them 5 or 6 seasons to sort it all out, the massive tv and sponsorship money, get the players in, sort the infrastructure out and they would challenge every year without doubt. And im not a Celtic fan it's just fact. The only club that would be bigger is Man Utd. Liverpool would be up there to.
In that case Besikta would do the same since they have insane and passionate supporters, give them the tv money and infrastructure and they'll be competing for the title lol, they could fill a 90000 stadium too
Good joke
The truth can be hard to hear sometimes haha. the hole spl gets 30 million a season tv money, the premiership gets billions haha. English fans just can't admit celtic are probably the 2nd or 3rd biggest club in Britain, the only reason players choose smaller English clubs over them is the money and the league. If celtic were in the league how many teams would have more pulling power??
Roland Tubman the Turkish teams already have massive tv deal im pretty sure its like half a billion a year. They don't have the same global fan base its just facts
Noone will give them 1 season. They would be relegated...
Ouch! This is recommended the day Leicester have demolished Arsenal 2-0
Winning the premier league once is greater than winning the Scottish league x times
Celtic have won the Premier league many times
@@saints16o5o87 scottish premier league lol
M8 winning that league they win it twenty in a row lol there pish really
The fact he left speaks for itself really
This aged like milk. Sutton must feel a complete Bell End. Leicester would tear Celtic apart.
How about now 🤡
6:51 "Where's your ambition?" That might be the most ridiculous footballing quote of the year, playing for Celtic is known to be one of the least ambitious choices in modern football, they have virtually no competition in their league and are usually humiliated in Europe.
Yes, beating one of the best teams in Italy(Lazio) both home and away and also holding man city to draws both home and away in the 2016-17 season when they were named the best team in the world by the media is getting humiliated. Also, the last time Celtic played Leicester was against their best team ever(most of which is gone now) and it was a Celtic B team in a season where Celtic weren't even at their best and leicester only won on penalties
He hasn’t left Celtic for Leicester
He has left the SPL for the Premier league and more money
Simple
London premier league and a real challenge. Spl is Mickey Mouse. Top two are championship teams rest league one standard at best. Board didn’t back him last summer the way he wanted. Pure ambition
If Calum mcgregor n kieran tierney were english or had a spanish surname yous would be saying there worth 80mil the english thought theo walcott was finally going to be a world class player for about 15 years 😂
Calum McGregor used to play in the English championship and he couldn't cut it. If he was that good, prem clubs would have come in for him. Tierney I will admit is a good player but he will struggle in the premier league.
If Tierney was as good as Celtic fans think he is, he'd be already at man u or liverpool. Robertson is that player
Lol but Celtic happy to snap up Scott Sinclair and make him a mainstay of the team (who was last playing at Villa I believe lol)
By the time he leaves Celtic he'll be a god to yous 🤣🤣🤣
@@68iansutton McGregor played for them about 6 years ago lol he has improved greatly sense then idiot 😂 man city were struggling to deal with tierney when we played them he would easily be top 3 lbs in england
Brother Walfrid † tierney is a Southampton type player, no good for united or city etc. McGregor has only improved because the opposition has become mediocre at best since he moved to Celtic.
Who is here after Celtic lost the league and Leicester won the FA Cup
Not a Rangers or Celtic fan but they would be up there or there abouts in the EPL the tv money they would get,playing for two massive teams,playing in Epl ,big stars would flock in to play for them facts.More so Celtic right now they would be easy fighting for top 6 if they had the massive tv money others get.Its all about that cash.
With 150 million a season they’d be challenging top six within five years easily ,it’s solely about money end of story
in someways yes , but I still think both would be behind Liverpool Man U Man City Chelsea and Arsenal and Spurs , they just don't have the global followings of these teams.
lol Scottish Premiership is a joke compared to EPL
Leicester is a joke when compared to the size of Celtic
@@kylewagler9239 Social media would say, Leicester have a bigger fan base then Celtic.
@@lestajesta9682 Celtic have the 3rd largest stadium in the UK. Over 60000 fans sold out. Leicester might be half that. Also I have family in Canada and Australia and there are Celtic supporter clubs all over the world. I doubt there are any Leicester supporter clubs outside Leicester
Well the best centre back and best left back in the premier League both came from the spfl so there's clearly quality there
The Scottish Premiership isn’t the highest standard but the real joke is the ‘English’ Premier League. Nothing English about it except the mugs who pay exorbitant prices so that their club’s new £150M signing Okonkwo Rodriguez can pay for his Bentley and wife’s breast implants.
Leicester won the league with less possession than nearly every opponent, legends at counter-attacking. Kante, Mahrez and Vardy a semi dream team. Maybe Brendan could offer something but I don’t expect anything
Oops
Hello. I am watching this in December 2020. Celtic are dead last in their Europa League group. Leicester are top of theirs and top 4 in the Prem. I'd say Rodgers made the right call lmao
Scottish football is boring and I don’t blame Rogers for leaving
Why go yhere in the first place then?
@Vernon Francis Gallagher his rep was low after Liverpool so Celtic easy wins worthless trebles trebels but he got hammered in Europe always now he away to a better league
Sutton has always talked out of his arse. Even Nottingham Forest are bigger than
Celtic....
Celtic vs Man ut= 1-0
Celtic vs barca= 2-1
Celtic vs lazio= 2-1
Celtic vs Juventus= 4-3
Celtic vs real Madrid= 2-0
Celtic vs inter Milan= 2-1
And celtiic became the first British team to win the European cup (champions league)
"Leicester have nothing to play for" we could get Europa league at this rate
As they've said, nothing to play for.
They could get a top four finish in the Premier League at this rate and a Champions League spot at the expense of Arsenal, United, Tottenham and Chelsea.
No small feat by any means, pretty incredible actually.
Leicester's Jamie Vardy was never asked to play for the England B team.
Never seen much of Chris Sutton on TV cos I don't watch bt often, what a massive 🛎 🔚
Alex AVFC Lineham how exactly is he a bellend?
@@philiphowieson7844 Saying Celtic reserves are bigger than a team that has won the premier league proves Sutton is a massive bell end
Celtic were the first British team in history to win a treble, world renowned fans that most premier league clubs couldn't even dream of, they are a bigger club. End of story
Yes am sure Man United would love to win a Scottish treble.
Chris Sutton is deluded. I don’t even support Leicester and I know they are a much bigger club than Celtic
Some of the most diluted punditry I've seen
Gary Hooper looked like a world class player at Celtic where is he now 😂
So did Van Dijk
Difference being he was and that’s why he is where he is now
Joseph Smith Hooper was decent in his prime
Itz Extra Skill
When was his prime?
So did Andy Robertson
Is he on crack “Celtics reserves are bigger than Leicester “ 😂😂😂
To be fair id watch the championship b4 the Scottish league
No doubt about it.
Celtic would struggle in the championship, these Scottish pundits are embarrassing. They’ve never had a world class player since Dalglish, Hanson, Bremner and Mackay. They sign has beens and second rate foreigners and don’t give youngsters a chance, just have a look at the national team. They are an absolute joke and I wonder why there matches are televised, they wouldn’t qualify from a group with the Faroe Islands and Luxembourg.
Jamie vardy would run circles round Celtic
GavinGamer17 ,if his wife let him...........
The people on the left of the soda talk sense. The people on the right, not so much. Celtic are indeed a big club. But challenging for top 4 in England is a totally different level of football.
Yes, recently Celtic have been dominant in the twelve team league that is the SPL, but they always struggle against mediocre sides in the Europa League!
So a team that's reserves are bigger than current Premier League clubs should be fairing much better in Europe?!
Chris Sutton his an absolute weapon, that spunk bubble needs to be kept off our airwaves!!!
Barca 2-1
Lazio 2-1
Man u 1-0
Real Madrid 2-0
SKIPPY WIPPY Barca 7-0 PSG 7-0 Barca 4-0 u mug
I think Lescott’s point is a really valid one. How many prime players go to Celtic or Rangers? They don’t. Usually players blossom there and if they’re really talented they make the inevitable move to the Prem.
L Hayes late comment ok but that’s because of money not anything else. If Celtic has loads of money prime players would play there
That is the case for any league outside the traditional big 5/6 in Europe
Exactly, for me the last true world star who spent his peak years playing for Celtic or Rangers is Henrik Larsson
Fact. Leicester have more chance of winning a European trophy with their squad compared to Celtic this coming season and over the next few!
True. But Celtic is still a bigger club.
@ Like what? Money?
Celtic get 60,000 fans against Livingston, Leicester get 30,000 fans against Man U.
N Hartson is another walloper!! Still carrying that chip on his shoulder of when Rangers knocked him back ,,, Ronald de Boer or Hartson!! No brainer....

That farmer that has one England cap to his name and one Chelsea goal in 30 games - talks a load of rubbish. And he gets paid well for it. And we have to watch it and pay for it.
Sutton has a b England cap
A reserve team in a tin pot league are bigger than an English Premier League winning team? And this coming from a Premier League winner with Blackburn. He should ask himself, would he have traded that win in '96 for another Scottish League medal? If the answer is yes he's deluded, if no he should understand why Rodgers left.
Utter nonsense from the man.

Is he wrong? Both Glasgow teams outwiegh any English team when it comes to fan base and attendances, add the tycoon Sky money and we would be able to sign much higher calibre of players than the likes of Leicester, after a couple of seasons we would be pushing for top half finish every season then work on top 10/6/3 til eventual winners. Something the English could never stomach 😂😂
@@Jie67 I don't follow any Prem team so couldn't really care. He could be right. It's more how he thinks something is factual when it isn't. Its hypothetical really.
@@Jie67 He's a hypocrite, he doesn't have a problem with Celtic nabbing the best talent from all the other scottish clubs to make the league even more of a mismatch than it is, but when a manager leaves them for a PL club he moans
@@rohithraman6488 what talent 🤣
@@Jie67 alright then, best Players. The whole league basically feeds into Celtic, and they win nearly every game domestically, but when they get smashed by Bayern or barca in the ucl some of their fans bang on about the "financial gap", "we can't compete" when 10 of the 11 other teams in the Scottish prem can't compete with celtic. If Motherwell had celtic money they could challenge, Hibs, hearts, aberdeen, etc
