Celtic managed to pick up a 2-0 win, with Brendan Rodgers’ side impressing.

Kristoffer Ajer has earned the praise of Celtic fans, after his showing against Partick Thistle last night.

Ajer was called into Brendan Rodgers’ starting line-up yesterday, as Celtic picked up a 2-0 victory over Partick.

Rodgers has bemoaned his lack of centre-back options this season, but Celtic fans feel that Ajer is ready to make the step up to playing regularly.

Ajer has made just six Scottish Premiership appearances for Celtic this season, but he has not looked overawed when given a chance.

The Norwegian youth international was commanding yesterday, as the Bhoys bounced back from defeat.

Rodgers’ side lost their unbeaten streak against Hearts at the weekend, but they comfortably picked up the three points last night.

Celtic’s victory extended their lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership table to five points.

In bad news for Ajer, Celtic have already brought in a new centre-back, with Marvin Compper set to arrive at Parkhead in January.
