Kenny Miller has suggested to BBC Sport that Odsonne Edouard did not play well for Celtic against Livingston this afternoon.

Edouard started for Celtic in their Scottish Premiership game against Livingston away from home at the Tony Macaroni Arena and played for the entire 90 minutes.

Former Celtic and Rangers striker Miller was not impressed with the performance of the 20-year-old French forward.

Miller told BBC Sport: “Odsonne Edouard’s had a really quiet afternoon. I appreciate it’s tough to play against this back-line but with these opportunities on the counter-attack, it’s the best opportunity you have for tearing Livingston apart. A player of his quality should be doing better than that.”

Visitors Celtic had 58% of the possession, took 17 shots of which six were on target, and earned nine corners, according to BBC Sport.
