Manchester City striker Georgios Samaras says he's better off playing on-loan at Celtic.

"To win trophies and awards and play in the Champions League is better than playing for a mid-table place in England," he told the Daily Record. "There is a big difference between the Scottish League and the English Premier League but I'm playing for the biggest team in the country and we have to win every game, which is real pressure.

"I know the way the team plays and it's my job to find the solution to make myself fit into the system.

"At a big team like Celtic, even when you're not playing well, you have to work hard to make sure the team takes three points and that's what I have to do."
