Odsonne Edouard has blasted back at his critics with a post on social media following his blistering hat-trick against Hamilton at Celtic Park yesterday.
The Frenchman started his season with a trio of goals as Celts mauled Accies 5-1. His post was apparently in response to Hoops legend Frank McAvennie who questioned his interest levels during pre-season, claiming he looked like he 'did not want to be there'.
He said: "When I watched Edouard the other day he looked a wee bit disinterested. Like he did not want to be there.
“Maybe he is just a big game player and he is just getting the minutes in. Maybe he needs crowds."
Edouard doesn't seem interested ... 🗣 . ⚽️⚽️⚽️

After Edouard hit his strikes, he immediately took to Twitter to shoot down McAvennie's claims with a cutting remark. He said: "Edouard doesn't seem interested ...", accompanied by a 'talking' emoji and three footballs to mark his hat-trick.
Fans loved the reaction and applauded their star man. One said: "What a lad," while another wrote: "The king has spoken." One commented: "Never leave." And a fourth responded: "I love you."
