Joe Hart has taken to Instagram to show a comical celebration that involved him and Celtic goalscorer Jota which saw the Portuguese attacker imitate a golf swing towards the ‘keeper.
The Hoops shot-stopper has become an instant hit north of the border having left Tottenham Hotspur where he was a backup ‘keeper, as under Ange Postecoglou, Hart has missed just three games across all competitions this season, keeping 18 clean sheets in the process.
Is Hart Celtic's best ever keeper?
Yes!
No!
Despite being the furthest player away from the celebrations against Aberdeen on Wednesday evening, Hart still managed to get in on the act as he posted a video to his Instagram story of Jota pretending to hit a golf ball in his direction before the camera panned to Hart, who dived in the air to make it look like he caught the ball.
Hart praised Celtic TV, from where the footage originated, as he said ‘I didn’t think you would pick this up’, showing that he appreciates the fact people have now seen their celebration.
TIF Thoughts on Hart…
While Hart may have been thinking that the end of his career was just going to fizzle out once he was no longer No 1 at Manchester City, as he ended up playing for four different clubs – with the latter seeing him only good enough to be a No 2 – a move to Celtic appears to have helped him rediscover some top form.
The former England international is certainly enjoying his football once again and that stems from being in top form, as he currently concedes 0.52 goals per 90 minutes, which is the best rate in the league, while he has also kept clean sheets in over 50% of his league games this season.
This good form could well come from having a good atmosphere and relationship with his teammates off the pitch, which is clearly on show in this video with Jota.
