Ronny Deila says his inability to improve Celtic during his time at the club has killed him inside.The Norwegian, who took over from Neil Lennon in the summer of 2014, announced he was leaving in the summer just three days after the Scottish Cup semi-final defeat to Rangers.Deila led the club to the Scottish Premiership and League Cup double in his first year and the Hoops currently boast an eight-point lead over Aberdeen with five games remaining. Speaking ahead of the first post-split fixture against Ross County on Sunday, the former Stromsgodset manager said: It has been a tough week, there has been a lot of thinking and it hasnt started this week either.I have been thinking about this for a while because I havent felt the team has got the results they should have and, maybe more importantly, the performance and improvement I wanted.When I came in to the job, I talked about improving the team and playing attractive football and I think the last six months we havent had the improvement that we need. Ronny Deila says a lack of improvement at Celtic in the last six months was key to his decision to leave the club And with the speculation on his future with the club now over, Deila admits he is looking forward to bowing out with a second successive league championship.Improvement is one of my biggest values and when you dont get it, it kills me inside and I lose energy with that.I dont think there has been a lot of improvement and when you dont get improvement, the outside pressure is going to get harder and harder as well. Celtic have not improved in the manner Deila had hoped I have no problem dealing with that, I have been sitting in this room a lot of times and there has been a lot of difficult questions.That is not the problem, the problem is when you dont get improvements and the things you said you wanted to create when you came in the door, you havent created.One of the reasons we havent had that improvement is because of the pressure and speculation around me all the time. Celtic won the title in Deilas first season in charge That is why I think it is best for the club that new energy is coming into the club next season and now we can really focus on winning the five games and getting five-in-a-row. It is going to be a huge thing for me, the players and the whole club, this is why the decision has been made.And Deila has rubbished suggestions he was not in charge of the clubs transfer policy during his near two-year spell at the helm, insisting he takes full responsibility for the current strength of the squad.One, I signed the players so dont think about that. There is not one player here that I havent said yes to. Two, I knew what I went into when I took the job, said Deila, who brought 22 players to the club during his 22 months in charge. Erik Sviatchenko, one of Deilas last signings for Celtic This club want to be drifted in a positive way and have a positive economy and you have to drift in those circumstances.Everything that is coming into the club is going out of this club. That was said before I came here and its the same now. It is the philosophy of the club and I think its a very, very good thing. I have had good communications with the club and Peter [Lawwell]. I am not a bitter man. I was given a chance but I felt that lately we havent had the development that we wanted in the team.Also See:Evans: Leeds before CelticMoyes: No rush on Celtic jobKeane the ideal replacementLennon keen to speak with CelticJrue Holiday Pelicans Jersey .

Born and raised in Toronto, Bradwell is entering his sixth CFL season, with all six played for his hometown Argonauts.PHILADELPHIA -- Up until the start of Saturdays game, it seemed unlikely that Joel Embiid would play at all.He ended up having the best game of his short NBA career.Fighting through a sprained left ankle, Embiid scored a career-high 26 points in 20 minutes, and the Philadelphia 76ers routed the Phoenix Suns 120-105 for their most convincing win of the season.I felt great, Embiid said. When you play, you dont really pay attention to those kind of things. During the game, I was fine. Even now, its fine.Nik Stauskas added a season-high 21 points on 8-for-9 shooting for the Sixers, who have split their last six games after starting the season with seven straight losses. Sergio Rodriguez had eight points, 11 assists and eight rebounds.Eric Bledsoe led Phoenix (4-10) with 27 points. The Suns have lost three of their first four on their six-game road trip.You give any team confidence at home and they can get rolling, Suns coach Earl Watson said. They have a lot of confidence here. The crowd was energetic and Embiid in limited minutes was more than effective.Embiid was 3 for 5 from 3-point range and 9 for 14 from the field overall. He also grabbed seven rebounds and blocked two shots, including a ferocious one on Devin Booker in the second quarter that got the crowd roaring.The 7-foot-2 center, playing in just his ninth NBA game after a pair of foot surgeries sidelined him for his first two seasons, reached his career high on a jumper with 8:30 left.After a three-point play from Bledsoe got Phoenix within six midway through the third quarter, the Sixers reeled off a 10-0 run to open an 82-66 lead. They led by double figures the rest of the way against a banged-up Phoenix team playing the second end of a back-to-back.We got stops, we made some shots and we took off again, Sixers coach Brett Brown said.Embiid and Booker were game-time decisions due to sprained ankles. Each of them started and Embiid, hurt two nights earlier, jumped all over the Suns, scoring Phillys first eight points and 10 in the first three minutes, including a ppair of 3-pointers.ddddddddddddLater in the first quarter, Embiid had eight points in a 10-0 run that helped Philadelphia to a 31-17 advantage, capping the spurt with his third 3 from the top of the key.Thats what makes him so tough to stop, Stauskas said. Obviously hes a dominant force down low but sometimes the bigs arent willing to step up to the line to guard him. And hes making people pay right now with that top-of-the-key 3-pointer.Booker finished with 10 points on 4-for-13 shooting.TIP-INSSuns: The Suns were without T.J.

With the minutes restriction, its kind of impossible right now.BOOKER GUTS IT OUTWatson said Booker struggled after returning from his own ankle injury. But the Suns coach was impressed that the second-year rising star was able to play at all.He gave us all he had, Watson said. He knew he wanted to play because we didnt have T.J.

You could see he could barely move.BOMBS AWAYThe Sixers matched a franchise record with 17 3-pointers.UP NEXTSuns: Visit Washington on Monday.76ers: Host Miami on Monday night.
