Simon Jordan blasts Michael Beale as Rangers boss hit with Ange dugout contrast and 'ridiculous' Sutton feud verdict

Simon Jordan believes Michael Beale is not good enough to take on Ange Postecoglou and that he needs to drop his feud with former Celtic striker Chris Sutton.

The TalkSport pundit and former Crystal Palace owner reacted after Celtic overcame their fierce rivals Rangers at Hampden Park in the Viaplay Cup final. Two goals from Kyogo Furuhashi either side of half-time were enough for Ange Postecoglou's side to life the League Cup for the second year in a row.

Gers striker Alfredo Morelos reduced the deficit 10 minutes later but a spirited Light Blues fightback fell short and indeed Celtic could have stretched their lead in the closing moments. It was a first defeat for Michael Beale since taking over as Gers boss in November and it keeps Celtic on course for a domestic treble. The champions have a nine-point lead over their city rivals at the top of the cinch Premiership and are still in the Scottish Cup and it looks like they will take all the beating this season.
