    Van Dijk has been super impressive since singing for us.

    He'll only get better with experience as well.

    I've just put a 5er on him to score any time... 5/1

    He was 28/1 to score 1st never touched that though.

    It does seem like at times, for sure.

    Far greater class than the SPFL.

    He'll be playing in the EPL soon.

    How do we keep finding these players???

    He's just been unbelievable, has more than made up for the loss of Wilson (whom, I still believe was terribly overrated by some Celtic fans).

    Will become a world class defender. Me and you have watched football for many years and we can all see that he will become a amazing defender.

    Absolutely excellent today again. He always looks in control.

    The embarassing thing is that he was our most potent creative force at times today. Threading balls wide etc.

    Without a doubt the best centre-half I've ever seen play for Celtic.

    If he keeps it up, I fear he won't be wearing the hoops for too much longer.

    Aye. We're in trouble goal wise right now, I wouldn't be adverse to playing him upfront for a few games to try and give us a bit more presence. Mulgrew and Ambrose would do a good enough job at the back.

    This guy is outstanding, he can do it all. Best centre back I have ever seen at Parkhead. He's been so consistent Aswell ever since the first 2 games of his career.

    I think he will go all the way and it will be a sad day when he does leave which will definitely happen if he continues to impress. :54:
