Chris Sutton reckons the rhetoric from some Rangers players following Saturday's defeat to Celtic stunk of desperation and deflection.
The Parkhead hero, who loves a jibe at his old rivals, is baffled by the reaction of the likes of James Tavernier and Todd Cantwell who both came out with big claims following the 3-2 derby win for Ange Postecoglou's men. First Tavernier slammed a supposed 'handball' by Jota in the build-up to Celtic's second goal before new boy Cantwell took a swipe on social media to say the Hoops 'didn't win' the derby.
Michael Beale's men sit twelve points behind their rivals and must pull the rabbit out the hat in the Scottish Cup semi-final to avoid handing Celtic a pathway to a potential treble. Sutton insists the reaction from Ibrox after losing is the 'same all the time' and that Rangers have to be much better at Hampden Park, because Celtic will be too.
