Some Celtic fans have been talking about the latest Twitter post that centre-back Christopher Jullien sent out recently.
The French defender posted an image of himself on Twitter, saying that it has been 23 days since football was last played.
On seeing this, many Celtic fans were left bemoaning the current suspension of football, with some telling Jullien how much they are missing him. They also admitted to missing football and want it back as soon as possible.
Feels like 23 years.

How would you rate Jullien's first season at Celtic?
Pretty average
He's been poor
He's impressed me
Feels longer than 23 days ?

Jullien joined Celtic from Ligue 1 side Toulouse this past summer. The Frenchman arrived for what was the second-highest fee in Celtic history – £
Since arriving, Jullien has become a regular at centre-back and has made 46 appearances in all competitions so far, scoring seven goals. In the Premiership, Jullien has scored four times and also has two assists to his name.
What do we think?
The reaction of Celtic fans shows that despite him having only arrived in the summer, Jullien has struck up a very good connection with the fans of his new club. Him scoring seven goals in the season could have played a role, while his goal against Rangers in the League Cup final proved to be the winner for Celtic.
All this shows why Celtic fans might be missing Jullien. One can only hope that football is back as soon as possible.
