Some Celtic fans have been left laughing at a video involving the club’s towering central defender Christopher Jullien.
Jullien was involved in the club’s recent 2-1 win over Aberdeen in the Premiership this past weekend. He didn’t get on the scoresheet, but his defensive partner Kristoffer Ajer nabbed the winner late in the game.
Has Jullien become a fan favourite at Parkhead?
Yes, we love him
He's got a long way to go
After the match, Jullien was talking to the media and the video of that interview went viral. When a Celtic fan posted the video on Twitter, it left many Hoops fans laughing.
Just talking about the last 6 wins in the one interview. Top trolling

Jullien had started as the left centre-back on Sunday, with Ajer playing in the middle and Israeli international Nir Bitton starting in the right centre-back position.
The Frenchman has become a regular in his first season in Scotland. He has made 40 appearances in all competitions for the club and has already scored seven goals. Four of those goals have come in the Premiership, with the most recent one coming against Hearts.
What do we think?
Considering Jullien came to the club for only £7 million from Toulouse in the summer, he seems to have already become a character that fans love. The reactions to the interview show that, and the manner in which he’s become an established starter is proof of that, too.
He was the one who got the match-winner for the club against Rangers in the League Cup final and that can only have helped his popularity.
