Dundee United concede five to league leaders Celtic

Kris Commons scored two goals as Scottish Premiership leaders Celtic put bottom side Dundee United to the sword by a 5-0 scoreline this afternoon.

Commons converted a first-half penalty after Kieran Tierney was fouled in the box, before firing an unstoppable shot into the far corner of the net after his corner was only half-cleared in the second half.

Leigh Griffiths had given Celtic the lead after latching onto the end of a Scott Brown pass to fire past Luis Zwick. Dedryck Boyata then grabbed the second goal, heading home an inviting Scott Armstrong cross.
Commons added the penalty just before the break, before Gary Mackay-Steven almost added a fourth straight after the restart, his low strike being turned onto the post by Zwick.
Celtic continued to push forward with Mackay-Steven continually testing Zwick in net, but it was Brown who grabbed the fifth after driving to the byline and hammering in a shot off Aaron Kuhl.

Chelsea won't sign new players - Jose Mourinho

Chelsea will make no signings in the January transfer window, says manager Jose Mourinho. The team has enough capable and balanced players to even out in the coming competitions. The Blues have six matches before January 1, with the first starting today against Hull City. Mourinho plans to rest his senior players for this Yuletide season, saying he is doubtful any one player should appear in all the six matches. The manager has granted his European-based players a two-day 'holiday' to rest and 'have a nice dinner with their families'. The former Real Madrid manager's side meets Hull City in the Premier league today. Petr Cech will replace injured skipper goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois in the Hull City face-off. Cesc Fabregas is ruled out for suspension and midfielder Nemanja Matic joins the squad after ban.
