“Spot on” – These Celtic supporters agree with Elyounoussi’s bold comments

Tarik Elyounoussi has been speaking openly about his views on Celtic and Scottish football in the build-up to Thursday’s Europa League play-off first leg, and many Hoops supporters seem to agree with the AIK striker.

According to the Daily Record, Elyounoussi claimed his side do not fear Celtic and suggested that the level of football in Scotland is not very high.

While his comments surprised a few and may come back to haunt him, these Hoops supporters all agreed with what the AIK striker had to say.

While his point about the Cluj game is clearly true, Celtic will be adamant to prevent a similar situation from occurring once again on Thursday.

Neil Lennon on the other hand, will be using the comments as further motivation to fire his side up.
