BBC pundit Michael Stewart has weighed in on Celtic after yet another loss in the Glasgow Derby fixture after their deficiencies were found out once again.
Speaking on Twitter, the former Hearts and Hibs midfielder makes the point that this was one of the Hoops better performances this season, but their weaknesses were found again, as defender Nir Bitton saw red to change the game on its head completely.
Best performance from Celtic for a while but their deficiencies have been exploited and Rangers now go from strength to strength at the top of the table stretching their lead. They’re the top team in the country and thoroughly deserving of their current position.

We have seen this same story far too many times this season, defensive mistake after mistake that has cost us.
This was the first time we were on top in a derby game for what has felt like a long time and really should have taken advantage of the dominance we had on the ball.
Now, we have an absolute mountain, as if we hadn’t already given ourselves a lot to do when it comes to clawing back the race to win the league title.
