Vakoun Bayo, Armstrong Oko-Flex and Karamoko Dembele all took to social media to praise Jeremie Frimpong’s Celtic debut.
The former Manchester City defender turned in a mature and impressive performance at right-back in his first ever top team appearance.
Frimpong has bypassed the Development squad to go straight into Neil Lennon’s first team squad, making his debut less than a month after joining the hoops.
An injury to Moritz Bauer opened the door to Frimpong with Hatem Abd Elhamed moving inside to partner Kris Ajer in central defence.
It was an assured performance across the board from the cup holders despite eight changes being made to the side that had beaten Kilmarnock on Sunday.
The new players stated their case for further involvement showing that Lennon has the depth and quality to compete through the fixture choked winter months.
Frimpong signed a four year deal on transfer deadline day after spending three years with Manchester City.
