How the Celtic players rated in dismal Glasgow Derby loss to Rangers
Neil Lennon’s side were well beaten at Celtic Park as a Connor Goldson double gave Steven Gerrard’s side all three points and a four-point lead at the top of the table.
The home side were incredibly lacklustre and failed to even register a shot on target across the 90 minutes. They were disrupted by absent players due to a combination of injury and Covid-19, but even those who made the starting XI failed to live up to their usual standards.
Player ratings scale - 10: One of best performances you've seen. 9: Outstanding. 8: Very good. 7: Good. 6: Average. 5: Poor, 4: Very poor. 3: Terrible day at office. 2: Abysmal. 1: One of worst performances you've seen.

2. RCB: Stephen Welsh - 5
The youngster started off reasonably well with a solid first half, but his positioning was suspect on a couple of key occasions in the second period. Subbed. Photo: Rob Casey - SNS Group
3. CB: Shane Duffy - 5
Caught out for the opening goal. Doesn't look like the type of centre-back Celtic need in Scottish football as his play on the ball is limited. Photo: Craig Williamson - SNS Group
4. RCB: Kristoffer Ajer - 7
The only defender willing to drive forward. He should've had an assist with a great pass for Leigh Griffiths. Made a couple of strong blocks. Photo: Bill Murray - SNS Group
