CELTIC FANS watched their side take a five-point lead in the Scottish Premiership last night in a 2-0 Glasgow Derby win over Partick Thistle and there’s one player who can do no wrong at the moment.
Kristoffer Ajer has started getting more game time and it seems the more he plays in defence, the more fans want to see the Norweigan.
With Jozo Simunovic coming in for heavy criticism along with Dedryk Boyata, the fans want to see more of the youngster and believe he and new signing Marvin Compper could provide stiff competition for the complacent pair.
Here’s how fans reacted during and after the game.
Give me @KristofferAjer every day of the week over Simunovic!

Future key player. For Celtic. And for Norway.

Kristoffer Ajer should be one of the first names on the team sheet against Aberdeen
Been class this game— Mitch The Bitch (@M_Mitch0408) December 20, 2017
Can I interject with an Auld comment? Did anyone else think Ajer breaking into the midfield was Roy Aitken like tonight??

The more I see of Ajer the more I like. He offers us something different coming out of defence.
Would like to see him tested against better opposition though.
I wonder if Brendan trusts him enough to put him in on Saturday?

Calm down we were only playing the Harry Rags , hardly under pressure
Doesn’t matter who we play Boyata is a bombscare
