Jeremie Frimpong is one of the most popular players at Celtic Park. Not only because of hi enthusiasm on the park, but also because of his frank honesty off it.
The young Dutchman wears his heart on his sleeve and that always shines through when he gives interviews or post match analysis. He tells it how it and that’s why the fans have taken him to their hearts.
Frimpong has been giving his assessment of the weekend’s performance against Livingston and he offers no excuses for what the team served up.
Frimpong says it had nothing to do with players missing because of the imposed self isolation, he says the team just wasn’t good enough, “It just wasn’t good enough from us. Of course we should have had enough out there to produce a better performance.
“Although there were a lot of players missing, there were enough regulars out there. That’s no excuse. The team that’s picked has to go out and perform. But we just didn’t do that”
“Everyone goes through tough patches. It’s how you handle them. This is a test of everyone’s character.
“As a footballer, you’ve got to deal with every situation. It is what it is. There’s no point in complaining.”
Frimpong’s form has been indifferent to what we are used to seeing from the youngster and the Celtic fans will be hoping the full back will get this best sooner rather than later.
