Martin O'Neill hailed his 'world class' stars following Celtic's 6-2 victory over Old Firm rivals Rangers, but insisted that they still have a long way to go before they turn the corner.

Chris Sutton and Henrik Larsson each grabbed two as the Bhoys dominated, but the Parkhead boss reminded us that they were still only five games into a long season.

He said: "We had a fantastic start but we were terrific throughout the match. We had to weather the storm at 3-1. But every single one of them was absolutely fantastic. They were geed up for the game, they were ready for it and they were powerful.

"But there's a long way to go. I genuinely mean this, we are delighted to have won the game but we couldn't possibly get carried away because at the end of the day Rangers are top-class side.

"It's not turned around, we have played five games, only 33 more to go. We have got off to a decent start. The lads are full of confidence. But this is not championship-winning. I bet for sure that Rangers will come roaring back again."

Although he refused to single out any players in particular, he reserved special praise for Henrik LarssonÕs first goal Ð an audacious chip.

He added: "It was an absolutely world-class performance. I'm delighted for him, delighted he's getting his fitness back and you wouldn't believe it but I think there's some more to come from him.

ÒChris Sutton already looks much better than last year and that is just confidence. With Bobby Petta, I don't know where he has got that from. He's improved all by himself.'

Rangers manager Dick ' wiggy' Advocaat accused his stars of taking victory for granted after their perfect start to the season crumbled at Parkhead.

The Dutchman fumed: "We have some players who over-estimate themselves and they went trying to score goals instead of doing their job.

"We were 3-0 down before they realised and by then we had lost, nearly every Celtic attack finished in defeat. There is no doubt this was the worst game we have played since I have been here. We were very poor, and they looked like they would score with every attack.
