Celtic fans were overjoyed on Twitter yesterday, reacting to some great individual performances in Sunday’s 0-4 win at Aberdeen.
All four Bhoys goals were scored in the first half, with Odsonne Edouard, Jeremie Frimpong, James Forrest and Mohamed Elyounoussi all getting themselves on the scoresheet.
But it was the dominant display of captain Scott Brown that many fans took to the social media platform to highlight their appreciation.
Love you Captain Fantastic ?? ?

Neil Lennon’s men appeared without fatigue from Thursday’s terrific 2-1 comeback win over Lazio in the Europa League.
34-year-old Brown played the full 90 minutes in both games, exemplifying the captain’s commitment and work-ethic for his side.
Well done broony and the team keep the momentum going

This result means Celtic maintain their position at the top of the Scottish Premier League and take on a struggling St Mirren this Wednesday at Celtic Park.
What do we think?
Brown continues to defy expectations in a Celtic shirt. Indeed, 180 minutes in four days is a lot of football for the skipper to adhere to, but his performances in both games showed what a stellar professional he is. He may be 34-years-old, but it appears that he still has a lot left in the tank and plenty still to give for Lennon’s side.
