Former Chelsea striker Chris Sutton has advised Super Eagles forward Kelechi Iheanacho to up the standard of his football at Celtic.
He made this known on the backdrop of his poor performance against Dundee United at the weekend, a game Celtic lost 2-0.
Speaking with the Record Celtic podcast, Sutton stated that he was unimpressed with the Nigerian international’s general display.

“It just shows you what a mess, what a muddle Celtic are in. And that’s not ideal. I’ve seen a lot of stuff online, people saying, well, he’s our best striker, Iheanacho.
“But I still think he’s miles off it. I think he does some good things in terms of his link up is OK at times. But I think there were times, and having played that position, I do know a little bit about sending a forward play, I think there were times in the first half where he was just downright lazy.
“And he didn’t work hard enough when balls were being played forward to actually get in a position where he could even be challenging for a ball and a knock down.
“I think maybe fatigue had something to do with that. But it’s been the story of Celtic season in the final third.”

Iheanacho The Genacho! Iheanacho Ziggy Zaga. Iheanacho Zaga Zigi. You are not a Tolotolo strikers in Tolotolo league.
Heaven bless Iheanacho and all deserved Super Eagles players not Tolotolo.
Age is catching up with him.
To even run now na wahala.
E dey run kiti kiti,, belle dey shake.
The best thing for him now is a move to Saudi. Play for anoda one or two years, collect money, then hang the boots.
This is a lie @Pompei. Iheanacho is as fit as Fidelis. When it comes to Iheanacho matter, I own you. In other areas of punditry, you are the top puppy. Powerful in prose, poetic in presentation. However on Iheanacho, I will push you to the pit.
Heaven bless me and all unyielding Iheanacho fans.
True yan, dese days na mugu money senior man dey take wack aroso lmaoo
Tarara Tararistic, no need for me to lie na. I just dey yarn wetin I observe.
On this Nacho matter, we just have to agree to disagree. His left foot is still clinical, but he’s not as sharp as he once was.
