And while the Belgium international has kept some of the most deadly marksmen in the Premier League under wraps, it was former Celtic target man John Hartson who caused him the most bother.Aged just 17, the former Anderlecht defender recalled how the Wales international and Henrik Larsson caused him all sorts of grief in a Champions League tie in 2003.“I’ve faced many, many great strikers,” he told Sporf. “And I’ve had good games and sometimes difficult games.“But the toughest one was when I was actually still a kid and I was 17 years old playing against a great Celtic side.The duo tangle back in 20032

“And on the other side was Larsson and Hartson which was an unbelievable strike force that they had at the time.“And Hartson was just so big! And, at the time, I was about 10 kilos lighter.“And every challenge in the air or whatever I was just asking question of myself – ‘How come I can’t even see the ball when it is coming?’“So he’s probably not the strongest striker I have played against.
