Celtic hero Peter Grant says Liverpool fullback Andrew Robertson was wrong this week to talk about wanting to play for the Hoops.

Grant, who played over 300 times for the Scottish side, insists Robertson - like Steven Gerrard during his time as Rangers manager - is insulting Liverpool with his comments.

"Many a people have had that dream," Grant told Go Radio on Friday. "I spoke about when Steven Gerrard kept talking about being the manager at Liverpool while he was the manager at Rangers, I don't like that.

"Your club should be your focus. Football has a funny way of kicking you. I think you've just got to concentrate on what you are doing just now and get back playing well with Liverpool, be successful there.

"At the end of the day if he ends up playing for Celtic then fantastic. Me, as a Liverpool supporter, you are not talking about someone at 35 coming to the end, he is 28. Your concentration level should be on your club. We can all have dreams. But certain things you have got to keep to yourself.

"It's different if you are late in your career and coming to the end of it, and Andy is hopefully not. It annoyed me with Steven Gerrard when he was at big club like Rangers, and it would annoy me if I was a Liverpool and Celtic supporter.

"I don't like that. Concentrate on the job in front of you. Football is very much day to day and you've got to be single minded."
