Steven Anderson believes Celtic's fifth league title in a row is already in the bag

even Anderson believes Ronny Deila's Celtic will win the league with ease

 

STEVEN ANDERSON reckons five-in-a-row is virtually in the bag for Celtic.

 

The St Johnstone stopper came up against the Hoops on Sunday and was on the wrong end of a 3-0 scoreline as Ronny Deila’s side moved four points clear of Aberdeen at the top of the Premiership table.

That points gap could rise to seven if Celtic win their game in hand against Hamilton, and for Anderson that means the trophy can be wrapped in green and white ribbons right now.

“I don’t think there is even a title race,” he said. “Celtic’s wage structure is massive compared to other teams.

“Aberdeen are up there with the wages they pay, but Celtic should be winning the league with what they’ve got. It’s really a case of seeing how many points teams can take off them.”

And despite Celtic's early season wobbles, Anderson is certain no one will stop their charge towards the title.

He added: “They are still a good team. Some people may say they are not as good as they were, but I think they are still a good side. They will win the league."
