Scott Sinclair and Ryan Christie have both regularly been overlooked by Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers this season.

Celtic midfielder Callum McGregor has told the Daily Record that both Scott Sinclair and Ryan Christie are superstars, even though the pair have often been overlooked this term.

Sinclair and Christie have been far from regular starters for Celtic this term, with the duo regularly left on the substitutes’ bench.

They did show Brendan Rodgers exactly what they could offer to Celtic at the weekend, after starring off the bench though.

Sinclair came on in the first-half against Hearts, while Christie was introduced at the break, and they helped turn the Scottish League Cup semi-final in Celtic’s favour.

Celtic won 3-0 in the end, with both Sinclair and Christie getting on the scoresheet in the second half.

And McGregor has given the pair great praise, as he has a very high opinion on the pair.

“Scotty has been incredible since he’s been here. When he turns it on he’s an absolute superstar,” McGregor said.

“Ryan is the same. He’s always had that quality but it’s been a case of waiting for that opportunity to get him in to the team.

“He came in and showed what he can do.”

Whether Sinclair and Christie will now start more regularly for Celtic remains to be seen.

Rodgers’ side are next in action at the weekend, when they take on Dundee tomorrow evening.
