Following the international break, Celtic is speeding towards their packed schedule of games as Brendan Rodgers works to build on his team’s stellar start to the year.
Although the home team leads on goal differential, Celtic and Aberdeen are tied for first place in the league going into this weekend’s matchup at the box office.
Position | Team | Played | Won | Drawn | Lost | For | Against | Diff | Points |
1 | Celtic | 7 | 7 | 0 | 0 | 22 | 1 | 21 | 21 |
2 | Aberdeen | 7 | 7 | 0 | 0 | 15 | 6 | 9 | 21 |
3 | Rangers | 7 | 5 | 1 | 1 | 12 | 4 | 8 | 16 |
4 | Motherwell | 7 | 4 | 1 | 2 | 11 | 8 | 3 | 13 |
The former Gangwon FC player made 31 appearances last season, with one goal and three assists. He created 21 chances and completed 30 successful dribbles in his rookie campaign, according to Stat-trackers Fotmob, so there is undoubtedly talent here.
However, with Daizen Maeda and Nicolas Kuhn on the flanks, he could have to wait for his opportunity in the starting lineup.
Alex Valle has argued for keeping his Celtic spot.
Alex Valle, a loanee, has recently been given the chance to contend for a starting position while Greg Taylor has been sidelined for Celtic.
By taking a chance, the man from Badalona has begun to leave a lasting impression on the support, giving the left-hand side a sense of vitality and clever ball retention.
His most memorable moment in green and white thus far has been Valle’s viral assist for Adam Idah versus St Johnstone, bringing some of his La Masia charm to Scotland. As he continues to grow at the Bhoys, more is anticipated.
Although Taylor’s imminent comeback will undoubtedly be very appreciated, his positional counterpart shouldn’t be written off based only on his previous play.
