Michael Beale already regrets "bigging himself up" in the buildup to the Viaplay Cup final, Chris Sutton reckons.
The Rangers boss made the headlines with his comments claiming counterpart Ange Postecoglou was a "lucky man" in a reference to the two sides' relative spending power. Sutton was one of the critics of his comments at the time and while he hasn't said so publicly, he believes Beale will be wishing he hadn't said it.
The Record Sport columnist was speaking on The Overlap's Old Firm special as he said: “Michael Beale came in and had the quip about ‘Lucky Ange’. I suspect that right now, at this moment in time, he regrets saying that. I understand he has to come in and make his mark, and there’s that great rivalry, but I think he could have played things a bit differently. And from things that he’s said in recent weeks, I think he’s watering things down a little bit.
