ANGE POSTECOGLOU has had another classic moment with a journalist after Sunday’s draw with Hibernian.
In a Press Conference CeltsAreHere attended, Ange was repeatedly asked what he thought his team was missing. The boss soon grew tired of the questions, and he gave the journalist a typical Postecoglou moment.
Is this working? [taps mic] Where were you sitting?
You’ve got to understand football is not played in perfect isolated conditions.
You are talking about an opposition whose main role is to try and stop you on a pitch that is not conducive to moving the ball quickly.

Within that the players were still brave, they were still passing into the right areas, we still got into the right areas.
I get it – we didn’t win, the world has collapsed, I understand that. We’ll manage that in the next couple of days.
But from my perspective when you come away from home and you dominate an opposition at what is traditionally a tough venue and you don’t get the win you’re disappointed because I think our play deserved it.
Ange handles the media in a great way. It’s almost impossible to get a story out of the Greek-born manager. He gives nothing away, whether it is transfer talk of injuries. He won’t even take any bait that is dangled in front of him.
Today’s result was more than disappointing, but the team must keep their cool as they enter the final ten games of the season. Celtic’s title hopes will go out the window if the squad grows complacent now.
Celtic have another cup competition to take part in. Postecoglou has made it clear he participates in every competition to win it. He will remind the players of his expectations.
