Celtic boss Gordon Strachan watched Japanese midfielder Shunsuke Nakamura grab a hat-trick on Saturday before heaping praise on his strikers despite none of them being on the scoresheet in the 7-0 win over St Mirren.
The club's forwards have come in for criticism in recent weeks as Celtic stuttered to three draws in a row.
"The job, after your rivals have won before you, is to win as well and I saw a lot of good performances out there against St Mirren," Strachan said.
"If you look at the chances made when the two strikers were on, Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink and Scott McDonald, they were better than when they were off.
"The strikers allowed us to command the penalty area."
Drogba denies role in Scolari exit
Chelsea striker Didier Drogba has rejected claims he was part of a player conspiracy to oust former coach Luiz Felipe Scolari.
Reports have suggested that Drogba, Michael Ballack and Petr Cech influenced the decision by Roman Abramovich to dismiss the Brazilian coach.
But Drogba declared: "No, no, it's not true. The thing is, the boss was there all week and he spoke to all the players.
"It's wrong to say Ballack, Petr Cech and me were having a meeting to decide about the future of one manager. It was a board decision, not the players' decision."
Blatter warning over Team GB
FIFA have intimated that a unified British Olympic team could compromise the independence of the four home nations, according to Scottish FA chief George Peat.
The Scottish, Welsh and Irish associations are opposed to a British team taking part in the 2012 Olympics in London.
"Mr (Sepp) Blatter (the FIFA president) told us at an informal function that, if we agreed to be part of Team GB, our position would be in jeopardy," Peat said.
"David Will, who was FIFA vice-president for 15 years, has always told us on no account to get involved. (UEFA secretary) David Taylor says the same thing. So we're viewing this as a serious warning."
Megson signs new Bolton deal
Bolton manager Gary Megson has agreed a new rolling contract with the Premier League club.
Megson's future has looked uncertain in recent weeks amid reports linking Bolton with a move for Burnley boss Owen Coyle. The Trotters dismissed the Coyle speculation as "rubbish" last week, and chairman Phil Gartside has now confirmed that Megson has put pen to paper on new terms.
"Gary signed a new contract a couple of weeks ago and we haven't actually announced it yet. That is the truth of the matter," Gartside said.
No row with Bellamy - Robinho
Manchester City forward Robinho insists that his relationship with Craig Bellamy is 'okay' following reports of a dressing room row in the aftermath of City's 2-0 defeat to Portsmouth.
Manager Mark Hughes has since played down the incident and Robinho has moved to echo his manager's words.
"I don't like to air things that happened in the dressing room but it really wasn't anything," Robinho said. "In every dressing room in the world players say things to each other after a defeat and then it is forgotten.
"I am a footballer not a public relations person."
Arsenal problems 'psychological'
Arsene Wenger admits Arsenal's "psychological problems" in front of goal are damaging their prospects of qualifying for the Champions League.
After Saturday's 0-0 home draw at home to Fulham, Arsenal are in danger of finishing outside the Premier League's top four for the first time in Wenger's 12-year tenure, having now failed to score in their last four league matches - their worst run since October 1993.
"Our goalscoring record has dried out over more than just five games," Wenger said. "There are plenty of reasons and one of them is certainly psychological.
"But overall it's hard to assess what is tactical, what is technical and what is psychological. I don't think it's about us only trying to score the perfect goal - the perfect goal is only when the ball touches the net."
