Celtic have had a great year so far, and Ryan Christie has been at the heart of much of it. Though he didn’t begin the campaign as a regular, the attacking midfielder has taken his chances when he’s got them, and he’s now reaping the rewards.
Now, after a few months, Christe has emerged as an indisputable first-team regular under Brendan Rodgers, and that doesn’t look like it’s going to change anytime soon.
He’s now been rewarded for his fine form, too. He’s officially been named the Scottish Premiership Player of the Month thanks to his performances throughout November.

November was certainly a breakout month for the attacker, both in Scotland and abroad in the Europa League, and he deserves every bit of praise that is now coming his way. He’s got 4 goals in the league now, and we’re expecting many more to come his way this term.
Unsurprisingly, the fan favourite has already earned a lot of praise from supporters – with plenty of Celtic fans taking to Twitter to congratulate him. See a collection of their Tweets below…
This gif has already been used more in December than I thought it would’ve, and we’re only a week in Well deserved, he’s been first class since he was subbed on at Murrayfield.
