Celtic

It's been hard to break into the Scottish champions side for fringe stars after taking 12 points from 12 so far.

[Giorgos Giakoumakis](https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/all-about/giorgos-giakoumakis) has netted two goals in his last two off the bench, and will be hoping to get the nod up front. Starfelt will be among the stars hoping for a shot at United having patiently warmed the bench following his pre-season knock. With Callum McGregor, David Turnbull and Matt O'Riley impressing in the Parkhead engine room there will be no rush to thrown the Japan cap into the mix. With Haksabanovic searching for match fitness, Postecoglou may take time to blend him into the team and all but ruled out an appearance at Tannadice. He has trained with his new teammates having been training alone in Sweden for the majority of pre-season, having left Russia following the invasion of the Ukraine. [Celtic](https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/all-about/celtic-fc) squad again - and that could spark a reshuffled of his starting line-up after an unblemished start to the Scottish Premiership campaign.

Kyogo has completed a first half hat-trick to make it 3-0 to Celtic. Having scored two earlier on, this was the easiest of the lot for the Japanese striker.

There will likely be more on the way as Celtic turn the screw. Dundee United simply turned off and Celtic struck. O’Riley fired a great pass across to Liel Abada, his cut back found Kyogo who could make no mistake.

Manager Ange Postecoglou has named his Celtic team vs Dundee United for the Scottish Premiership test this lunchtime.

In Japan, the match is live on subscription stream service SPOTV. It’s a big opportunity for Abada in particular, who has found minutes limited even when fully fit. Today’s a big match or the Bhoys. The match is also on the SPFL world feed meaning lots of channels around the world are broadcasting the game. Postecoglou has made three changes for the fixture with Liel Abada, Reo Hatate and Carl Starfelt coming in for Daizen Maeda, David Turnbull and Moritz Jenz. In Australia it’s on beIN Sports 2 while viewers in the USA can tune in to CBS Sports Network.

Jota found Hatate's run and the Japanese midfielder squared for Abada to knock home. O'Riley's touch sent Abada in behind and he crossed for Jota to net from close range. Celtic went for the kill and scored a brilliant third in stoppage time. Starfelt and Abada were handed their first starts of the season while Reo Hatate was recalled. Half-time brought respite but no shift in momentum. Ross made four changes as he tried to halt a four-match losing streak.

Scintillating Celtic. THIS was seriously impressive. Celtic have looked slick already this season with a flawless start to the league season.

But the attacking onslaught continued with Starfelt adding a ninth. Thankfully, Hart could continue after staples to his head and a kit change - unfortunately for United it was a very long afternoon. But they piled on the misery.

Celtic produced a devastating display of attacking football to put nine goals past Dundee United at Tannadice and return to the top of the Scottish ...

Not everything came off for the Danish U21 international but was involved in much of Celtic’s best play and grabbed a couple of assists before his 63rd minute withdrawal. Diazen Maeda (5) and James Forrest (5) kept the pressure on the United defence but couldn’t get up to the level of the duo they replaced in Jota and Kyogo. Otherwise, a solid display and another goal to add his one off the bench at Kilmarnock last week. Crazy to think the Israeli youngster is not a regular starter when he can impact a game like this. Posed a constant threat down the right hand side with his movement and one-touch passing. His post was struck twice but was able to rest up long before the end.

Jack Ross insisted he remained determined to fix Dundee United's problems after enduring a 9-0 defeat by Celtic at Tannadice.

“It’s about the intent and we don’t want to be led by the scoreboard or whatever the circumstances of the game are. And because of the embarrassment and humiliation I feel right now then, absolutely, I want to put that right.” The 46-year-old admitted he was “puzzled” by how bad things were but admitted his side were too passive. “You need to have faith in your managerial ability through previous experiences and the challenges I have overcome in my football and coaching career. And large aspects of the performance were not reflective of wearing a jersey in professional football.” So, when I talk about being humiliated and embarrassed, I want to fix that.

Manager Ange Postecoglou says his Celtic team "keep going all the time" after thumping Dundee United 9-0 in the Scottish Premiership.

"I don't think us, as players, could argue if we lost our positions at the club. "That's part of the kind of football team we want to be," said Postecoglou. We know as players we've let him down, we've let each other down, the fans, the staff, and our families," he said. "I do think he is in serious danger of losing his job. "We are 100% [behind the manager]. Eight of those came in the final hour against Celtic.

Hoops slice Dundee United open with ease to leave Tannadice manager Jack Ross facing searching questions.

Callum McGregor’s pass to Jota put United on the back foot and O’Riley squared for Abada to knock home in the 50th minute. Abada sent Jota in behind and Furuhashi had kept himself ahead of the United defence to allow himself time to take a touch and slot home. Jota found Hatate’s run and the Japanese midfielder squared for Abada to knock home. Hart was able to continue after lengthy treatment and a change of jersey and shorts and Celtic soon took the lead in the 15th minute. O’Riley’s touch sent Abada in behind and he crossed for Jota to net from close range. Tony Watt and Charlie Mulgrew were among those dropping out as the manager brought in Ross Graham to join a back three with Archie Meekison handed his first start of the season in midfield.

Those are the managers I remember watched win league titles for Celtic, and none of those seven men turned out a team that did what this one made look so easy, so routine, today. The scale of their folly will be revealed to them. We have scored three (Ross County), five (Kilmarnock) and nine (today) away from home, in our three away matches. Some will be disappointed that we didn’t hit the club record all-time score line of 11-0, a record that has stood for more than 100 years. Neither was the Player of The Year runaway favourite Jota. In and out.

Jack Ross has made a brutally honest admission after his Dundee United side suffered a 9-0 defeat at the hands of Celtic in their own backyard.

I want to overcome it but it hurts a lot. So I’m hurting and suffering, but it doesn’t diminish my want to put it right. I’m hugely protective of my players and I own the responsibility, because it’s my shoulders it falls upon, but you can’t run away from it.

Ange Postecoglou was proud to see his Celtic players conduct themselves with humility and respect at Tannadice today, despite thrashing Dundee United 9-0.

“Of course, there is a part of you that on the sideline does feel for what the other guy is going through as we are all in the same game. “I don’t think sympathy is the right word as we all know we are in this business and it’s a ruthless business. [The Scotsman](https://www.scotsman.com/sport/football/celtic/ange-postecoglou-hails-respectful-celtic-but-admits-i-dont-think-jack-ross-needs-my-sympathy-3822378), the Bhoys manager said: “What is important is the manner which we went about it.

Celtic obliterated Dundee United 9-0 in the Scottish Premiership, in the club's biggest away win in the league in its 134-year history.

“It’s about the intent and we don’t want to be led by the scoreboard or whatever the circumstances of the game are. “It’s better to swap shirts with players you admire after you’ve knocked them off, rather than just grabbing one for your collection.” “It’s the team we want to be – it’s not just about the football we want to play,” said Postecoglou after Sunday’s masterclass had put his side two points clear at the top of the table after five striking wins to open their defence.

The signs are looking bright for them though and if they can continue performing like this, Celtic might very well be on the path to their second straight league triumph and spring up a few upsets in the Champions League. We need to take a bit more time before coming to any conclusions, at the end of the day, it is still just August. Ultimately, it was a huge victory for the Hoops and will go a long way in helping their goal difference, which could come in handy at the end of the season.

However, he can’t play every fixture, and Bernabei will be needed to ease the load on the Scotland international. This was [reported by the BBC](https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-62560400) to be an alleged road traffic offence, which the Celtic defender was said to have been charged for. The left-back got 12 minutes at Tannadice in the 9-0 win over Dundee United.

Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou is expecting a "quality football game" in the first derby meeting of the season with Rangers next week.

Bassey and Aribo were significant players for them but they have brought in some players who have started pretty positively for them. When we play at our best we are hard to stop, irrespective of who we’re playing against.” If you just think the season is going to be decided on four games, you’ll slip up in other areas. They’re going really well, and they’re a good side. Along the way, the team have netted a massive 20 goals and conceded just one. “We’ve got Wednesday night first, Ross County away in the cup.
