The Hoops keeper has shown a formidable presence since joining the club in the summer of 2021. Hart continues to play an important role on the pitch, helping the team win five domestic titles in two seasons. Prizes with the potential to win more. his third.
But while his performance between the sticks is something that will most likely be remembered at Celtic, his off-field personality is also something many supporters have embraced.
This was the subject of a question in a recent interview but seems to have gone unnoticed. In early August, Hart sat down with Celtic TV commentator Paul Cuddihy for a video “The Gorbals Drinks Co.”. The clip of this interview was tweeted by Celtic fan @MeabhMcN on Wednesday morning. It was viewed more than 50,000 times in three hours, with many replies and tweets praising Hart.
You can watch the full interview on the Youtube channel “The Gorbals Drinks Co.”. It has certainly gone unnoticed so far, with less than 1,200 views at the time of writing.
“Callum McGregor says you’re one of the nicest people he’s ever met in football,” Cuddihy told the former England number one, sounding very emotional. “What a talk for someone like Callum,” he replied. That says it all. I want people to think I’m good in front of goal, but I appreciate that I’m good but I’m not that good.
“People will have good and bad opinions. The times when I could let them down, the times I helped my teammates.
“But what you just said, I can suggest any time, any day. It’s not an effort to do that, to communicate with someone, to care about someone, to protect someone, and it’s not an attempt to get someone to protect you. .
Very sane content, as others will say, I’m sure.
Replacing Hart as number one goalkeeper is something Celtic should and will certainly seek to do. The former Manchester City player will be 37 years old when his contract expires next summer. It seems like a natural time for a breakup that’s not forever.
However, quotes like the one above remind us that there’s more to it than what fans saw on Saturday. Hart is very present in the dressing room. You won’t find another Celtic player with more experience.
He is one of the loudest and most capable people. Replacing this part of things would be a daunting task. If this is his last season at the club, hopefully we can win a domestic double and a strong campaign in Europe.
