Celtic fell to an opening weekend defeat in the Scottish Premiership, losing 2-1 to Hearts in Edinburgh.

And a number of Hoops supporters weren’t impressed with left-back Greg Taylor for his display.

Taylor kept his place in Ange Postecoglou’s side after starting in both legs of the club’s Champions League qualifier with FC Midtjylland.

The 23-year-old played the entirety of the game against Hearts, losing possession of the ball on 19 occasions, as per Sofa Score.

Taylor, who was ruled offside in the second half when it appeared Celtic would go into the lead, also lost four of his six aerial duels.

The full-back also failed to complete an accurate cross at Tynecastle, with John Souttar’s header late on ensuring Celtic would suffer an opening day defeat for the first time in 24 years.
