Celtic midfielder Liam Henderson started for the second successive league game as the Bhoys ran out 4-0 winners against Ross County on Wednesday.

The Celtic youth product was loaned out to Rosenborg and Hibernian in 2015 and has found game time hard to come by since his return to Parkhead this summer.

Before last night, Henderson had appeared just three times – and 137 minutes – under Brendan Rodgers but gave his new boss food for thought during his 63 minutes in Dingwall.

Though it was only 1-0 when Henderson left the field for Scott Sinclair, the 20-year-old’s display seemed to stick in the mind of Celtic supporters on Twitter.

And as far as many are concerned, Henderson should play more often…

On-loan winger Patrick Roberts opened the scoring for Celtic three minutes in, before three goals in the final 10 minutes from Stuart Armstrong, Sinclair and Moussa Dembele secured a resounding win for the runaway Premiership leaders.

Despite playing one game fewer than second-place Aberdeen, the Bhoys are already seven points ahead of the Dons – and nine clear of bitter rivals Rangers in fifth.
