Some Celtic fans have been left talking by the latest post about current Arsenal defender Kieran Tierney recently.

A Hoops fan with the name ‘caitlinnn2_’ recently posted a video of Tierney. It had the former Celtic left-back celebrating with a trophy and kissing it during his time at Parkhead. It also had Tierney hold the Celtic crest out while holding the trophy aloft.

On seeing this video, many Celtic fans weren’t happy. They expressed their dislike for Tierney clear. Others hailed the video and their former player.

Which club did Larsson join Celtic from?

Do you hate Tierney for leaving Celtic?

Yes, he was selfish to leave

No, he did the right thing

Tierney is a product of the Celtic youth academy and had grown through the club’s youth academy. His first-team debut came back in the 2014-15 season and he made 170 appearances in all competitions while picking up 37 assists for the club.

What do we think?

Tierney had joined Arsenal this past summer for a £25 million fee. While he did leave the club after rising through the ranks there, his assists numbers show that he was very helpful to their cause of winning five Premiership titles. It shows that he certainly gave his all to the club during his time there. Celtic fans should remember him fondly and respect what he did.
