Celtic v Aberdeen: Dons boss Thelin says ‘too early’ for title talk

It is “way too early” for Aberdeen to be considered title contenders regardless of their result against champions Celtic on Saturday, says manager Jimmy Thelin.

The 46-year-old Swede has guided Aberdeen to 13 wins from 13 games this season, seven of those in the Scottish Premiership as they face the trip to Celtic Park.

Brendan Rodgers’ side lead the table on goal difference after also starting their league campaign with seven wins.

The last team to start a league campaign with eight straight victories was Aberdeen in 2015-16, but Thelin says even if his side can emulate that it is premature to suggest they could go the distance.

“It’s the eighth game and it’s October and then you go until May and a lot of things can happen,” he said.

“We have a long-term project and this season we go game by game and try to be better, we try to create a clear identity.

“How we train, how we compete, and the team spirit, and we are, right now, on a good track.

“But still we have to improve a lot of things and stay humble with a lot of effort, and then we have to try and then try again.”
