Celtic did against Aberdeen what they do best, win football games. Brendan Rodgers' side were nowhere near their best in the first half but that did not stop them from going into the break 3-0 up. Daizen Maeda scored the opener after the ball looped up in the box and fell perfectly for him.

Andy: A sobering wake-up call (yet again) from Celtic. They were ruthless in front of goal, Aberdeen were toothless. Five decent chances passed up.

Celtic quickly got back to winning ways with a sterling 5-1 win over Aberdeen at Paradise in a game that marked Alistair Johnston’s 100th Hoops appearance and a first bow for 19-year-old Jude

Chris Sutton praised two Celtic players in particular following their 5-1 win over Aberdeen to go 16 points clear in the league.

Liam: We are steamrolling towards the title but we didn't even get out of second gear. Aberdeen got in behind four or five times and as usual it was on the left-hand side. However, we are full of goals and Daizen Maeda is flying domestically. We've been better yet win 5 1. Can't be unhappy with that.
