# Celtic fans take to Twitter to laud Timo Weah after game changing performance

**So far in his time at Celtic, Timo Weah has shown the Hoops exactly what they’ve been crying out for as he’s come in on-loan and swiftly done enough to replace Moussa Dembele, with his goals and assists already proving pivotal to the Bhoys. The American played just 15 minutes yesterday, yet he swung the game with a goal and an assist.**

The last time the Bhoys travelled to McDiarmid Park saw James Forrest light the place up when he scored four first-half goals en route to a 6-0 thrashing. However, this time around saw a much tighter affair, and the Hoops will have been relieved to see Weah come on and lay on a goal instantly for that man, James Forrest, to make it five goals in two games in Perth this season.

Weah, though, was the man who the fans were raving over. The youngster did everything right when he was introduced and after setting up the crucial first goal, he eased the fans nerves just ten minutes or so later when he scored himself to secure the win for his side. The 18-year-old is already looking like a sublime catch, and the fans are desperate to see him become a permanent addition at Parkhead.
