Ronny Deila says it will be hard to keep teenager Patrick Roberts out of the team following his brace against Hearts.
The 19-year-old winger, who is on loan from Premier League side Manchester City, showed bursts of quality throughout the game.
The two most decisive moments came either side of half-time as Roberts’ double fired Celtic to victory and seven points clear at the top of the table.
Deila hailed the Englishman, after the game and admitted it will be difficult to leave him out in future games after this performance.
As quoted by Sky Sports, he said:
He was very good. He was involved maybe seven or eight times on the ball and scored twice, what more can you expect?
It will be hard to leave him out. Every time he has it in the right places something happens. We need to keep feeding him the ball.
He is an important player for us but we have many good players. We have three games so we will see what we will do.

Roberts had to work for his chance at Celtic and shone in the early stages of his time at Paradise playing for the development squad.
His first start came at home to Dundee and he has also made three appearances off the bench since his move to Glasgow.
Celtic are in action again on Tuesday night as they catch up on a fixture which has been postponed several times this season away to Dundee.
