Celtic have parted ways with manager Neil Lennon this morning following a run of just 12 wins in 28 games in all competitions since mid-October, with assistant manager John Kennedy taking interim charge of first-team duties.

While the former Hoops player has taken the brunt of the dismal form of the Parkhead outfit, there is no denying that some of the players failed to live up to the expectations this term.

Celtic saw Jeremie Frimpong and Olivier Ntcham leave last month, and while the duo had no hand in the club’s struggles, their exits spoke volumes.

Some of the players were no longer keen on remaining at the club, and there was little Lennon could do about it.

Frimpong is grateful for the chance the erstwhile Celtic boss gave him during his time at Parkhead, and the Bayer Leverkusen full-back has taken to Twitter to react to his exit.

Thanks for everything you did for me Gaffer! Good luck with the future
