Jackie McNamara played alongside some pretty big beasts at the back for Celtic but he reckons wounded warrior Cameron Carter-Vickers is a match for most of them.
Record Sport revealed the Hoops hero is playing through the pain barrier with a long-standing sore knee and he could be forced to go under the knife before the season is up. Carter-Vickers will suck it up to get through the Scottish Cup semi-final showdown with Rangers next weekend but it remains to be seen if he’ll need to call time on his campaign with a few weeks to spare.
Parkhead legend McNamara isn’t surprised the centre half has been toughing it out this term. He can see the big fella is made from the game kind of steel he saw when he was at the club. McNamara played in the middle of defence himself at times but his time was a golden era for centre halves in Glasgow’s East End.
