Mr Gandosaur Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Viduka is the bigger c*** of the 2 on account of the spitting incident, although it is a close run thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McFandan Posted June 25, 2015 Author Share Posted June 25, 2015 Shearer n Sutton partnership. Class. Sutton is the answer Yeah it was a good partnership. Nearly as good as Sutton and Larsson's partnership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveThePirate Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 I chose Viduka, but there wasn't a lot between them in all honesty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ya Bezzer! Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Viduka was technically better and a better goal scorer as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Has to be Sutton as I don't recall him leaving Celtic saying that he never played 100% for the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daydream Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Sutton. I remember some Italian defenders utterly bemused at how to play him in a tie at CP. Fantastic player on his day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~~~ Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Viduka. We'd have been fucked without him after Larsson broke his leg. almost single handily carried us at times. I don't think Sutton would have been capable of leading the line on his own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urban Gorilla Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Sutton for me definitely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 There's a reason why Sutton had to resort to playing CH when Celtic had 2 top quality strikers at Celtic in Larsson and Hartson. He was a quality player, but I never seen him as a leading striker, he was always the leader's partner and complemented them well whereas Viduka was a rounded goalscorer and a better player for me.

Aylo vanal Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Vodka at his best was better than Sutton at his. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atfccfc Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 I voted for Chris Sutton. My experience of him both at Blackburn and Celtic made me feel he was the better player. Mark Viduka was a fantastic player. But i suppose my attitude towards him soured after the spitting incident at East end park. Just looked up the stats to both player. Sutton over 500 career games 193 goals. 66 European appearances and 18 goals 10 titles won and one European final appearance. Only one international cap. Viduka again over 500 career appearances 258 goals. 50 continental appearances and 27 goals 2 career titles. But did play for Leeds during their successful period Full Australian international (though i was convinced that he was Croatian for some reason) EDIT 8 career titles (missed his 6 at Zagreb) Oops 43 caps and 11 goals. His record for the youger Australian teams was outstanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Signed for Celtic from Zagreb also.Much better all round player than Sutton in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gb46836 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Based purely on footballing reasons this really isn't a difficult decision! Viduka was the better player and had more in his locker than Sutton! Shouldn't even be up for debate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
