It wasn’t quite on a par with Diego Maradona’s famous picture surrounded by Belgian players at the 1982 World Cup but in it’s own way, yesterday an image taken from the stands at Celtic Park yesterday highlighted how feared Tom Rogic is.

After taking a while to get his his exertions at the World Cup Finals in Russia the Australian is getting back towards his best form.
Away to St Johnstone he was the assist king as James Forrest rattled in four goals to kick-start Celtic back into form.
After a break with the Socceroos Rogic opened the scoring with a stunning 25 yarder in the 4-2 win over Hibs, in midweek he also opened the scoring away to Dundee with another spectacular effort.
In-between times he played a lead role in the 3-0 win over Hearts in the Betfred Cup semi-final to set up a Hampden final against Aberdeen.
Apart from Sevco the Dons are the team that have suffered most from Rogic, with Hampden a favoured venue for Celtic’s celebrated Australian.
