Many Celtic fans have been talking about the latest tweet that the club recently posted on social media.
The SPFL recently posted an tweet sharing the Scottish Premiership’s Team of the Week. This Team of the Week included Celtic midfielder Olivier Ntcham.
The Celtic Twitter account shared the SPFL’s tweet, tagging Ntcham and posting the French flag emoji as well.
This tweet caught the attention of a lot of Celtic fans, who couldn’t believe the fact that Ntcham was included in the Team of the Week.
Did absolutely nothing in that game ?

Did Ntcham deserve to feature in the SPFL's Team of the Week?
Absolutely not!
Yes, he deserved it
Is this a joke????

Christie deserved it more than him

He’s as useless as a chocolate fireguard

The game against Dundee United this past Saturday was Ntcham’s first start of the season in all competitions. He had played in the other games as well, but he had come off the bench against Kilmarnock, Hamilton Academical and KR Reykjavik (as per Transfermarkt).
Some other Celtic fans also gave their opinion about Ntcham’s inclusion in the league’s Team of the Week.

Ntcham earned a Whoscored rating of 6.66 in Celtic’s game against Dundee United last Saturday and that was the fourth-worst rating for the Bhoys in the whole game. It shows that Ntcham didn’t have a great game and that is why Celtic fans can’t believe how he made it to the Team of the Week.
The fact that the game at Tannadice Park was Ntcham’s first start this season shows that maybe Neil Lennon doesn’t really trust him to play regularly for the Bhoys. So to fully convince Celtic fans and Lennon about his abilities, Ntcham would have to come up with better performances in his next few games.
