Whisper it, Liam Scales has been Celtic’s best defender this season

Whisper it, Liam Scales has been Celtic’s best defender this season and has certainly proved his many doubters wrong…

Liam Scales is a man who has worked hard to earn his place in this Celtic side. From being almost out the door to being a pivotal player in our double winning campaign.

My oh my, how he’s proved to us all so wrong

Even after that he’s still viewed as more of a squad player, by an overwhelming majority of the supporters, myself included, but my oh my, how he’s proved to us all so wrong. He’s proved in no uncertain terms that he is the number one choice to start alongside Cameron Carter-Vickers.

Liam produced yet another man of the match performance in the world’s greatest club competition as we comfortably beat Slovan Bratislava, with Liam himself opening the scoring.

I would whisper it, but Liam has been our best centre back this season, even ahead of Cameron Carter-Vickers in my opinion.  CCV has been his assured solid self, but he’s been prone to a few errors lately, ones that Liam himself wouldn’t get away with from the critical element of our support.

Is CCV carrying a niggling knock?

To be fair to CCV he looks like he might be carrying a niggling injury so that could well be the reason, but Liam for me has been our stand out performer at the back. Especially these last few weeks, and for that he deserves great credit.

Just an Ordinary Bhoy
