The Celtic legend joked about a claim made by Glasgow Rangers boss Pedro Caixinha at Ibrox this week.

Chris Sutton never misses an opportunity to take a dig at Rangers.

The Celtic legend claimed at least the Hoops had made ‘Progres’ in Europe this week after their Champions League win over Rosenborg – an obvious dig at the Gers.

And the ex-Celtic striker appears to have taken another one, but this time taking aim at Rangers boss Pedro Caixinha.

This week, the Portuguese manager suggested that he boasted the best squad in Scottish football, after adding nine new players to a club which finished 39 points behind their bitter Old Firm rivals – who won a domestic treble – last season.

Such a bold claim didn’t go down well with a lot of Rangers fans, let alone those on the green half of the Old Firm divide, and Sutton has joked about it today.

Brendan Rodgers told The Glasgow Evening Times on Friday that his Rangers counterpart should focus on letting his squad do the talking.

The Ibrox club kick off their Scottish Premiership season tomorrow with a trip to Motherwell.
