‘Deserves better’: Celtic fans praise Ismaila Soro despite Livingston draw

Celtic played out another miserable day at the office this afternoon as they were held to a home draw by Livingtson.

The Bhoys struggled to get going and had just the one shot on goal throughout in what was another poor display from Neil Lennon’s men to add to the back of a tough week for the club.

Few players came in for much praise from the Celtic fans afterwards either, although one man who did get some attention was Ismaila Soro, who once again looked lively in midfield.

Soro has impressed since coming to the club and despite the poor result today, he did at least get some kind words on Twitter from some Celtic supporters.

Here, then, is what some Bhoys fans had to say about Soro’s latest performance.

Soro deserves better than this @CelticFC WE ALL DO!

Laxalt been busy today but Soro is my Celtic MOTM today

Only one man turned up today (Soro – feel sorry for him)…

Playing high balls throughout to one of the smallest players on our team (Frimpong)…

Playing the ball backwards too much (twice in injury time) when there was space to get it forward.

Soro without a doubt. Stats will look good I imagine. Definitely far better than Frimpong.

Would like to see the Stats of Ralston. Couple of decent balls in the box which is a change from our full backs.
