Neil Lennon has lavished high praise on Fraser Forster following his heroic performance in the League Cup final win on Sunday.

The Great Wall was Celtic’s star man in the 1-0 win, producing a number of excellent saves to deny Rangers at Hampden, including Alfredo Morelos’ penalty.

And following his performance, Lennon hailed the shot-stopper as a goalkeeper who can’t produce saves other ‘keepers cannot.

READ CELTIC VERDICT

Forster was quite simply outstanding against Rangers, coming to Celtic’s rescue on a number of occasions.

Do you think Celtic will be able to afford a permanent deal for Forster?

Yes

No

And it’s not the first time the 31-year-old has produced on the big occasion for Celtic both this season and during his first spell at the club. 

The Great Wall has that incredible ability of being able to up his game for Celtic when his teammates need him most, and Lennon must do all he can to sign him on a permanent basis.
