Some Celtic fans have been discussing the latest tweet that the SPFL recently relayed on social media.
The tweet from the SPFL concerned the 2019/20 Premiership’s Team of the Season. The tweet revealed the results of the poll to decide the Premiership’s goalkeeper in the league’s Team of the Season – with Celtic’s Fraser Forster getting 47% of the votes.
This tweet caught the attention of many Hoops fans. They hailed Forster and his latest achievement and had high praise for the Englishman.

Is Forster the best goalkeeper in the Premiership?
Absolutely!
I don't think so
TBF most supporters only really know about their own team players unless there has been a standout against them. Big Fraser has been outstanding but more so in Europe and a certain Cup Final. ?

Forster finishing as the winner left many other Celtic fans raving. They flocked to the tweet to make their opinions known.

Forster’s achievement seems to mean a lot to these Celtic fans. The goalkeeper was a regular between the sticks for the Hoops this season. He made 39 appearances in all competitions, with 28 coming in the Premiership, where kept 14 clean sheets in total (via Transfermarkt).
The 32-year-old was crucial in big games for Celtic, as he saved penalties in the League Cup final and against Copenhagen in the first leg of their last-32 knockout tie in the Europa League.
That is a clear reflection of why he means a lot to Celtic. The club’s fans can only hope that they can keep Forster at the club, with his loan stint set to expire at the end of this month.
