Chris Sutton believes Celtic boss Neil Lennon has been "badly let down" by his players.

The Hoops suffered yet another defeat today as they went down to Ross County in the Betfred Cup.

Sutton now reckons Lennon will be axed from his position as he took to Twitter following the full-time whistle.

He tweeted: "Neil Lennon has been badly let down by his players but he can’t survive this. He’s been a great servant to the club."

We told earlier this week how Sutton branded his former teammate "delusional" before admitting that the pressure was mounting.

He told BT Sport: "If I'm honest I thought that Sparta Prague were the better team throughout the game. 

"This is a Sparta team who have lost four out of the last five games, this is a team Celtic should be beating. 

"They have been humiliated over two legs. 8-2 was the score over two games. 

"Neil Lennon now is under severe pressure. This is a team who have conceded 21 goals in the last nine games. They haven't stepped up in the big games. 

"They look disjointed, disorganised and, he's my mate, but he's in big trouble. I can't defend that - it was a hopeless, hopeless performance. 

"I know that the board have backed him, but they have a decision to make. The last time a (Celtic) manager was on this bad a run was Tony Mowbray. Ronny Deila failed in Europe too. 

"This isn't the Champions League though, this is the Europa League and for Celtic to be out after four games isn't good enough. 

"This time last year Celtic beat Lazio and they qualified after four games. They've regressed and he's in trouble. 

"I'm not sure it solves the problems if he does go. It's a huge decision for the board to make. He's won nine major trophies as Celtic manager. Do they trust him? 

"I don't know what's been going on behind the scenes. Whether Peter Lawwell has seen enough with what's going on in the training ground to trust him. 

"The fact of the matter is the results have not been good enough and it's been all season. It's been on Neil Lennon's watch."
