Aye this is what it is, which is fair enough i suppose - i thought he was terrible less than a year ago. Like most of these things - the folk who actually watch him every week have been fairly consistent with their opinions of him recently, although it's easy to dismiss that as blind loyalty/bias too.
He may be a fairly limited footballer but by f**k he's made the most of what he has, and absolutely battered the door down in front of him. He's went from laughing stock (amongst Celtic fans) to 'here, he's actually not been too bad' in a half ironic way - to making his inclusion in the side something that just can't be argued with - all down to his own graft and attitude too. Fair play to him.
