The Australian has been in fine form for Celtic so far.

Chris Sutton has highlighted the improvement of Celtic midfielder Tom Rogic.

The Australia international has looked in very good form so far this season, netting three times in just five Scottish Premiership starts for the Hoops.

The 23-year-old is one of several Celtic players who looks to have improved since Brendan Rodgers replaced Ronny Deila in May.

And while Sutton acknowledges that Rogic has improved a great deal, the former Bhoys striker could not make room for him in his BT Sports Team of the Week.

Rogic netted in Celtic’s 6-1 demolition of Kilmarnock at the weekend and overall Rodgers’s side look very, very good for a sixth straight Premiership crown.

They host Manchester City at Parkhead on Wednesday night, but whatever happens there should not distract them from their real aim this season: domestic dominance.

Having lost 7-0 at Barcelona on the opening round of Champions League fixtures, it is clear that Rodgers’s side are frankly nowhere competing in a group which also includes Bundesliga outfit Borussia Monchengladbach.

Winning the Premiership, and the two other Scottish Cups, is the main aim for Celtic this season and it’s certainly a case of so far so good.
