Some Celtic fans aren’t that happy with Jack Hendry this evening.

Jack Hendry of Celtic heads at goal during the Scottish Premier League between Celtic and Kilmarnock at Celtic Park on May 9, 2018 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Celtic thumped Standard Liege 4-1 in a pre-season friendly at Parkhead today.

But some of the lads in green and white were unable to escape criticism for their performances.

Earlier this afternoon, a number of Celtic fans took aim at 33-year-old centre-back Marvin Compper as Brendan Rodgers named a different XI for the second half, when the Bhoys were leading 3-0.

However, some fans of the Scottish Premiership champions were also left unimpressed by the player who Compper replaced: Jack Hendry.

The former Dundee man, who joined Celtic for £1.5 million in January, endured a tough first 45 minutes against the Belgian side.

Here’s how Celtic fans reacted to his performance:

Despite a seemingly erratic first-half performance today, Hendry remains a huge talent.

The two-time Scotland international is still only 23 years old and has already shown plenty of promising signs within his first six months as a Celtic player.

Alongside Kristoffer Ajer in defence, that might be the Hoops’ centre-back partnership for years to come, even if he might have flattered to deceive in a nothing game against Belgium’s sixth-best team.
