Last season, Celtic struggled to really lay a glove on our Glasgow rivals, winning none of the derby fixtures between the two, picking up just one solitary point in a draw towards the end of the season.
Postecoglou has a huge job on his hands as he prepares for next season. However, several fans were left a little more assured after the 55-year old’s performance in his first press conference as manager of the club.
I wouldn’t agree with the not laying a glove comment.Over the games,we were definitely the better team.They also got away with very defensive tactics,especially at Liebrox which they wouldn’t have got away with had their awful support been present….
