A lot of Celtic fans have flocked to a tweet from former Bayern Munich ace Bastian Schweinsteiger after the German heaped praise on the Parkhead crowd. 

In a Twitter Q&A, the German was asked which away ground provided the ‘best atmosphere’? In response, the 37-year-old  replied with “Celtic Glasgow. This was impressive!!”

Will Celtic progress from their EL group?

Yes

Yes

No

No

The German midfielder was a part of Bayern Munich’s matchday squad for their Champions League clash against the Bhoys back in 2003.

Bayern drew 0-0 with Celtic and although Schweinsteiger never came on as a substitute, the Parkhead atmosphere clearly left a lasting impression on him.

Celtic fans flocked to the tweet from the now-retired German to share their thoughts on his choice of best atmosphere given he has played 663 club games across his career.

What exactly did these Celtic fans have to say?

“The big fella knows”

“Big man knows the score! Nothing like Celtic Park on a European night”
“we are massive”
“Brilliant stuff “
“Come be a coach x”
“Very Interesting! Thank you for answering!”
“Unreal”
“Bastian knows!!”

The Bhoys kick off their Europa League group stage on Thursday evening with a trip to Spain as they face Real Betis in the first of their Group G games.

With Bayer Leverkusen, Real Betis and Ferencvaros making up their Europa League group, you wonder if the atmosphere lauded by Schweinsteiger to give them an extra boost against their continental opponents this season.
