Many Celtic supporters have slammed Greg Taylor for his performance against Bristol City recently.

The Hoops recently played Championship outfit Bristol City in a pre-season friendly, some days before their Champions League qualifier against Midtjylland. Taylor had started the game at left-back, with Anthony Ralston starting at right-back. Ismaila Soro and Callum McGregor started in midfield, while young Karamoko Dembele also played in the 0-0 draw.

Is Taylor good enough for Celtic?

Yes

Yes

No

No

But the performance of Taylor drew the attention of many Celtic supporters. They weren’t happy with how the Scotsman played in the outing.

What did Celtic fans make of Taylor’s performance?

“Pre-season or not. Greg Taylor just isn’t good enough IMO. His final ball is shocking. Gives the ball away far too much.

Last season, Taylor had been in and out of the Celtic first-team but he still managed to rack up a tally of seven assists for the club. Even in the 2019/20 campaign, the Scotsman wasn’t exactly a regular but he still got five assists in all competitions.

Celtic fans, can you get 8/8 on this quiz on forgotten players? First up: who is this?

It shows that Taylor has never been an undisputed starter at Celtic but since they currently have only Boli Bolingoli as the other left-back option, Celtic fans may have to see Taylor play more often.

Bolingoli could be heading out of Parkhead soon and this will leave Taylor as the only left-back option. So even though Celtic fans are fuming, they might have to see Taylor more often next season.
