Gustaf Lagerbielke describes Mikey Johnston

After Europe’s disappointment, Brendan Rodgers and the Celtic boys had a fantastic week’s finale.

St Johnstone led 1-0 at one point in the game and appeared to be capable of pulling off a shock, but Celtic made it look easy.

In the second half, the Bhoys increased the ante, and Mikey Johnston gave an outstanding effort coming off the bench.

He looked good coming off the bench, just as he had against Lazio in the Champions League, leading the side to victory this time.

Although Mikey Johnston was not credited with a goal, his effort was commendable as he showed no fear when he attacked the St Johnstone penalty box and ran at their backline.

Nevertheless, the 24-year-old posted to Instagram following the game, receiving praise in the comments section from a number of his teammates, including Gustav Lagerbielke.

Gustaf Lagerbielke, the center-back that Celtic signed in the summer, called Mikey Johnston a “baller.” Alistair Johnston responded, “Welcome back, lil bro,” and Marco Tilio said, “Bravo brother,” adding an emoji of a clap.

Will Celtic’s Mikey Johnston start against Hibs?

His previous two shows are worthy of it. Hyunjun Yang, the summer hire, is also showing mixed results thus far.

Given that the South Korean celebrity is only 21 years old and still relatively new to the scene, he has nothing to worry about.

However, he is still getting acquainted with Brendan Rodgers’ system, whereas Johnston is already familiar with it.

In any case, he is talking about the ball enough to be starting on Wednesday night against Hibernian.
