‘Brilliant’… Brendan Rodgers was over the moon with £1m Celtic player in St Mirren win yesterday
Brendan Rodgers has hailed one Celtic player after he saw his team progress into the quarter-final of the Scottish Cup yesterday.
The 2-0 win o♎ver St Mirren earned the Hoops a home tie against💃 a struggling Livingston team and after watching a much improved Celtic, Rodgers will be confident of progressing to Hampden.
However, the Celtic boss was full of admiration for Joe Hart‘s contribution to the win in Paisley. The £1m man was back to his superb best after pulling off a string of saves to ensure Celtic♔ left the SMISA stadium with the win.
Brendan Rodgers hails ‘brilliant’ Joe Hart after Celtic win
The Hoops boss was in fine form when he was speaking post-match to Neil Lennon. When Lenny suggested that Hart comes in for some unfair criticism, Rodgers couldn’t agree more.
Rodger🐭s said [], “He’s been brilliant. He’s so clean. Anything that c🐎omes in he takes the pressure off.
“Some of the teams put in real quality c💧rosses and he d𒁃eals with that really well.”
With recent rumours suggesting that Rodgers could be l😼ooking to replace Hart soon, the Celtic ‘keꦑeper has given the Hoops boss some food for thought.
Joe Hart’s Celtic contract
Hart’s contract is up for renewal in the summer and the 36-year-old has been very honest about his feelings about an extension.
When aske✱d in January about his situation, Hart said, “I don’t think it’s too important at the moment if I’m honest. We have far more important things to fo🎐cus on.

“From the moment I came up here, I’ve always said I’m just looking forward to playi🌼ng football and not really thinking about that side𝄹 of it.
“I’m contra🅺cted to this amazing club and I love turning up every day and doing my best.”
I said at the time that Celtic should look to offer the experienced goalkeeper an extra year on his cꦰurrent deal.
As well as being important off the field, Joe Hart proved yesterday that on his day, he still can produce the goods for Celtic.
