CELTIC star Greg Taylor has been an vital part of the Celtic team this season, showing his adaptability to become a dependable starter under Ange Postecoglou.
He’s turned things around under the Aussie boss, after his Celtic career looked to be going nowhere. He was at fault for the goal in the match at the weekend, but it’s the first time he’s put a foot wrong all season, remaining incredibly consistent for the Bhoys.
Despite his efforts and consistency, the 25–year–old defender is not letting himself get carried away with the possibility of winning the club‘s Player of the Year award, instead choosing to focus on finishing the season strongly.
Taylor believes there are several players who are worthy of the award, praising teammate Kyogo for his relentless work rate and commitment to the team.
He said: [Football Scotland]
“I didn’t know I was a candidate!
“It’s a massive compliment to be spoken about and it’s nice when the plaudits come along.
“But I know how quickly things can change if you don’t cut the mustard. I just keep trying to improve and focus on finishing the season strongly.
“The awards tend to go to the goal scorers anyway.
“There are several candidates from this team. It says a lot and that’s a credit to the players themselves.
“Everyone has played their role in the team and everyone plays their part. We know we wouldn’t be as successful if everyone didn’t give themselves over to the team.
“Look at Kyogo. You see him running all the way back to his own goal to defend, and these things don’t go unnoticed.
“It’s unbelievable. But that is what it’s like throughout the squad, everyone wants to help one another. It’s a great thing to have.”
Choosing this year’s player of the season is going to be a tough gig, but you feel it’s going to be hard to look past Kyogo, as he looks destined to net over 30 goals and finish the league’s top scorer.
