Many Celtic fans have hailed Ryan Christie for his excellent display against CFR Cluj on Thursday.
The midfielder starred as Celtic beat the Romanian champions to go top of Group E after the opening two fixtures, with Odsonne Edouard and Mohamed Elyounoussi grabbing the goals.
And despite not getting on the scoresheet himself, Christie still stood out for his work rate against Cluj, with one fan in particular making a humorous suggestion that he should race four-time Olympic champion Mo Farah.

REad celtic verdict
Christie’s performance was certainly impressive once again, as he emphasised just how important a player he is for Celtic.
His work-rate is second to none at Parkhead, and that is matched by his excellent ability on the ball.
The Hoops have made a nigh-prefect start in the Europa League, and currently top Group E with four points from the opening two games.
