Celtic boss urging Stokes and Hooper to show consistency

Last night's Celtic goal heroes have been urged to become more consistent by manager Neil Lennon.

Anthony Stokes' double and Gary Hooper's late strike gave the Glasgow giants a vital 3-1 Europa League win over Stade Rennes at Parkhead and although Lennon was delighted with the pair, he asked for some more consistency after a 'flat' showing in the league against Hibernian (0-0 draw) last weekend.

"Both Hooper and Stokes scored and I felt Stokes had a great game. He was excellent in the game in France and I thought he was again in this game," he said.

"Both Stokes and Hooper were flat against Hibs last weekend, so it's just a question of consistency.

"But you get that now and again with younger players."
