Had you offered any of us a 3-1 win over Aberdeen at Pittodrie in advance of Sunday’s lunchtime kick-off then your proverbial hand will almost certainly have been bitten off!
Some critics have been particularly harsh and suggested that overall it was a poor performance by the Bhoys but I can’t quite get on board with that theory. Aberdeen seem to be shaping up well under Barry Robson and look to have recruited well over the summer, but with guys like Kyogo and Matt O’Riley on the pitch Celtic always have that extra bit of quality that can make all the difference in such a keenly fought game.
Debates will rage on about where our priorities should lie, but it’s not too dramatic to say that goalkeeper and left back seem to be problem areas for the side at this early stage in the season – though I thought Joe Hart dealt with most of what Aberdeen threw at him pretty well. The chances of Kieran Tierney returning to Celtic this season could be reduced by a serious injury to Arsenal's new signing Jurrien Timber.
