Pierluigi Gollini ꦓand Robert Snodgrass were amongst those to send Joe Hart messages of support on Instagram following his first Parkhead appear༒ance after his move to Celtic in the win over Dundee.

Hart made his Hoops debut on Thursday as Ange Postecoglou﷽’s men won the first-leg of their Europa League qualifie✤r tie with Jablonec in the Czech Republic.

It was perhaps not the most convincing debut from the 34-year-old. But he did not have to wait too long for his first clean sheet foll😼owing his move from Spurs.

Celtic thrashed Dundee 6-0 on Sunday. It was a real statem𒀰𝔉ent of intent from the Bhoys, with Kyogo Furuhashi bagging a hat-trick.

Hart, unsurprisingly, did no♊t have a lot to do. But he did make one smart save during the second-half.

The goalkeeper took to Instagram following the game to express his delight with theไ result and getting the chance to play in front of the Celtic fans.

And in response, he received messages of support from Gollini – whose swi✤tch to North London allowed Hart to move on – and Snodgrass.

The win🥀ger, of course, is a Celtic supporter, and was on the books at West Ham while Hart was at the London Stadiu🦋m…

Celtic pre-season problems look a blessing in disguise after Dundee win

Of course, Celtic 💦would rather remain in the Champions League qualifiers. And a defeat on the opening day against൲ Hearts was clearly not in the plans.

However, their☂ two results last🅠 week hint that those losses may be looked back upon as a blessing in disguise for Postecoglou.

They highlighted just how much work Celtic needed to do in the market. And ahead of Jablonec, Hart arrived along with James McCarthy⛄.

It was another summer signing who stole the show on Sunday. Aꦿnd it now seems that Celtic may indeed be ready to fight to wrestle their crown back this season.
