Carl Starfelt was cautious when asked if Callum McGregor could play at the very top of the English Premier League. But the Swedish defender couldn't help but admit that David Martindale was otherwise spot on in his glowing assessment of the skipper.
McGregor was the matchwinner for Celtic against Aberdeen in their hour of need on Saturday and continues to be the main man in midfield for Ange Postecoglou. They face Livingston on Wednesday looking to keep their red-hot winning streak going and Lions boss Martindale was full of praise for the table-toppers, with McGregor singled out for his captain's contributions.
The Livi boss insisted the Scotland midfielder is the best in the league and rated him good enough to play for the likes of Arsenal or Manchester City down south. And Starfelt, though reluctant to give his captain the big sell for a league he hasn't played in, reckons Martindale was on the money.
