Twitter: @celtic_now @jockyboy1 Both decent strikers…I’d plump for McDonald because he had more to his game the Hooper (@Con_Shaunnery)

Twitter: @celtic_now Both scored a lot of important goals for us in Europe and against the original Rangers (@jambho87)

Twitter: @celtic_now Scott was great too but hoops just shades it (@jimcunning1)

Twitter: @celtic_now Never really liked any of them, both were full of themselves (@celticjohn67)

Twitter: @celtic_now Tough call (@jasodowd)

Twitter: @celtic_now Despite scoring a lot of goals, McDonald was dreadful. Are we forgetting about his first touch? (@ORebily)

READ CELTIC VERDICT

Both strikers had different impacts on the club and were very prolific in front of goal. They had their different qualities also, but ultimately, both were frequent in finding the net during their respective spells with the club.

Prior to joining Celtic, McDonald netted twice for Motherwell to deny the Hoops the Scottish Premier League title and most fans will never forget that. However, the Australian always had an affection for Celtic since boyhood.

Hooper was incredible in the clashes with Rangers and played a massive part in helping the club secure their first-ever away victory in the UEFA Champions League.

One thing is certain, both players can look back at their spells with Celtic with great fondness and pride.
