Many Celtic fans have flocked to Twitter to share their thoughts on Diego Laxalt’s performance in this afternoon’s Premiership clash between Celtic and their Old Firm rivals Rangers.

The 27-year-old, who started this game at left-back for the Hoops, has been a regular for Celtic since moving to Parkhead on loan from Serie A leaders AC Milan back in October.

The Daily Record were full of praise for the Uruguayan’s performance in the early stages of Saturday’s game, as they stated that he and Hoops right-back Jeremie Frimpong caused ‘havoc’ for the Gers early on in this one.

However, it appears as though many Celtic supporters have a very different view on the £4.5m-rated man’s performance in this Old Firm clash.

So, what have these Celtic fans been saying about Diego Laxalt?

Lots of Celtic fans have been slating the on-loan left-back, with the player’s crossing ability, in particular, coming in for some fierce scrutiny.
