Jonny Hayes didn’t have a great game for Celtic on Saturday it seems.

Jonny Hayes of Celtic arrives prior to the UEFA Europa League group E match between Lazio Roma and Celtic FC at Stadio Olimpico on November 07, 2019 in Rome, Italy.

Hmm, it seems like Celtic fans weren’t crazy about Jonny Hayes on Saturday.

The Hoops moved five points clear of Rangers – who have two games in hand – by beating Ross County 3-0 at Parkhead yesterday afternoon.

Goals from Callum McGregor and a brace from Odsonne Edouard did the damage for a Celtic side that continue to look very decent since the winter break.

Bhoys boss Neil Lennon started the Irish winger at left-back again yesterday.

Hayes, a £1.3 million signing from Aberdeen in 2017 [The Scottish Sun], has impressed in that role a number of times this season, including in the win at Lazio in the Europa League earlier this season.

But he wasn’t at his best in defence here as the hosts rode their luck a couple of times from his positioning errors.

Here’s how Celtic fans reacted to Hayes’s performance on Twitter:

The good thing about Hayes, the thing you have to admire about him, is that he doesn’t hide. He’ll know himself that yesterday wasn’t his best day of the season and no doubt that’ll spur him on going forward.
