Celtic fans have taken to Twitter to laud Jeremy Toljan’s display in the Hoops’ 2-0 victory against Hibernian at Parkhead on Wednesday which leaves Brendan Rodgers’ men six points clear at the top of the Scottish Premiership.
The January signing made his Bhoys debut in the weekend win at St Johnstone as he came on at half-time to replace Mikael Lustig. And Rodgers decided to hand the German his full debut against managerless Hibs.
