    Mark Reynolds
    Former Dundee United defender on BBC Radio Scotland

    United haven't worked the goalie, they haven't forced a save out of him.

    Yes, they've hit the bar and the post four times, but these are the things they need to start looking at.

    If this keeps happening, it is going to be a long season.

    I know it’s early in the season, but the gulf in quality between Celtic and the rest is immense.

  18. 'Feel sorry for United'

    Dundee United 0-3 Celtic

    Mark Reynolds
    Former Dundee United defender on BBC Radio Scotland

    It's a great finish, I feel sorry for United.

    They have come out on the front foot, and Celtic get their foot on the ball and are up the park in two passes, and the game is now pretty much beyond them.

  19. 'Risk is rewarded for Celtic'

    Dundee United 0-3 Celtic

    Pat Bonner
    Former Celtic goalkeeper on BBC Radio Scotland

    After such a bright start to the second half, United are picked off by a classic counter-attack, which is finished well by Sebastian Tounekti.

    The Tunisia winger runs on to the ball at the edge of the box then cuts inside to drill a shot between two defenders and into the bottom corner of the net.
