‘Superb’… Stephen Robinson was blown away with £15k-a-week Celtic player on Sunday

St Mirren manager, Stephen Robinson, has shared how he was blown away by one Celtic player’s performance in Paisley on Sunday.

Robinson’s side succumbed to a 2-0 defeat to Brendan Rodgers‘ men and whilst The Buddies boss was disappointed to go out of the Scottish Cup, he reserved special praise for Celtic goalkeeper, Joe Hart.

Robin💟son said [], “Celtic defensively, they don’t really get that kind of credit. They are classed as a very good f𒈔ootball team.

“But some of the blocks that they made in the six-yard box and Joe Hart, I thought was superb on the day deal🍒ing with corners and deliveries into the box.

“And you know,𒆙 they deserve credit f꧋or that as well. At times the two 18-yard boxes is where the difference is between winning and losing football matches.”

A real touch of cꦰlass and humility from Robinson there. Hart’s performance at St Mirren was, probably, one of his best o🦹f the season.

As I spoke about yesterday, the £15k p/w ‘keeper has been criticised for making some blunders earlier this season but of late, he has really shown his value to the Celtic te𒐪am.

Against Hibs, he made three brilliant saves and at Aberdeen, he made a further two and ten ball recoveries💛. []

However, against Rangers at Ibrox earlier this season, Hart showed his true value to the Celtic team. His leadership and experience helped coach an inexperienced centre-back pairing of Gustaf Lagerbielke and Liam Scales through a tough afternoon at Ibrox which led to a 1-0 Celtic win.

With his contract set to expire at the end of the season, Rodgers needs to make a decision on the £1m man and decide whe𝔍ther or not he still has a future at Celtဣic.

Basಌed on the last few performances, it does seem that despite having a career spanning 20 years, Joe Hart still has a lot left to offer.
