    Certainly up there with the best centre half’s I’ve seen in my time supporting the club. I still think he could go up levels as well, some CB’s don’t peak till 30ish.

    Superb. His wee drag-back to skin Shankland in the first half was top class.

    Our defence had been leaking clear chances too easily all season.

    He is the difference.

    It’s no coincidence that our performances have improved since he returned to the squad. Makes such a difference knowing you have that quality at the back, and everything builds from there when we play out.

    He's class, a massive loss when he's not playing.

    An absolute rock and so consistent for us. Would love to see him stay long term. Would no doubt go on to become a Celtic great if he does.

    Rodgers said he was rested as he still builds on his injury but should be fine for the weekend.

    “It was the game plan to bring him out. He’s still working on his knee and some of the issues around that. He’s played a lot of games in a small period so this is a chance for him to recover and be ready for the weekend and beyond that.”

    Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers has revealed his thinking behind the decision to leave Cameron Carter-Vickers out of Wednesday night’s 2-1 victory over St Mirren.

    The American centre-back - a standout for the Hoops since arriving from Tottenham Hotspur - was omitted from the matchday squad for the visit of the Buddies in their latest Scottish Premiership clash, with Liverpool loanee Nat Phillips taking his place to partner Liam Scales.


    Despite nursing injury problems in recent times after undergoing surgery, Rodgers clarified it was always a conscious plan to rest Carter-Vickers due to the 25-year-old still having a few issues with his knee.


    Speaking to BBC Sportsound post-match, Rodgers stated: “It was the game plan to bring him out. He’s still working on his knee and some of the issues around that. He’s played a lot of games in a small period so this is a chance for him to recover and be ready for the weekend and beyond that.”

    Things you love to see.

    Number one pick is CCV!

    Same tbf, tongue in cheek but really he’s the only guy we’ve seen be able to thrive with or without CCV there next to him.

    Even Starfelt who was part seamless next to CCV, looked poor without him. Another week or two I’ll be changing my username to Scales instead of ma Tony :56:

    How good is his ability to time his tackles in tight spots btw?

    Just feel that he sometimes needs to get a shot off, finds himself in good areas.
