A lot of Celtic fans have flocked to a tweet that was recently posted by the club’s official Twitter account which relayed images showing some of their players training ahead of their UEFA Europa League clash with Lille on Thursday.
Hoops trio Odsonne Edouard, Nir Bitton and Hatem Abd Elhamed were all recently sidelined through illness. Edouard and Elhamed have both sat out each of Celtic’s last three games, while Bitton has not featured in any of Celtic’s last four games.
However, this recent tweet from the Hoops shows that all three men are now back in training.
So, how did these Celtic fans react to the Glasgow club’s tweet relaying these training images?

Bitton, Elhamed and Eddy all look as if they’ll at least make the bench tomorrow night, which is a big plus. https://t.co/KKWNKZxdC0

The Hoops have failed to win their last three games and all three of these players were out of action for those fixtures, so it mightn’t come as a big surprise that plenty of the club’s fans find it encouraging that all three men are now back in training.
Elhamed, Bitton and Edouard? https://t.co/FYwSOOA5f5

Will the return of these players be a big boost for Celtic?
YES
NO
Would be great if Hatem, Nir and Eddy were all fit and firing again for Thursday and Sunday ???? https://t.co/qpYOg8uFG5
