5 things we spotted at Celtic training as Jota takes aim and keepers test their headers

Celtic's pre-season continues apace this week as Ange Postecoglou and his team face Bannik Ostrava in the latest leg of their European tour on Wednesday. Before that, though, there was time for some more intensive training - and there were one or two unorthodox methods on show in the latest session.

Postecoglou will have learned plenty about his team in their two friendlies so far. They steamrolled third-tier Wiener Viktoria with a 7-0 rout, before battling to a hectic 3-3 draw when the opposition stepped up several notches in Rapid Vienna. He might be a little concerned by how they let a lead slip three times - and some of the defending left plenty to be desired - but the Australian was quick to draw the positives from the fiery friendly.

He'll be expecting his stars to get fitter with every passing day and that certainly looked to be the case in their latest session on the road. With the squad quickly approaching full strength and more and more internationals returning to the fold, Postecoglou, Harry Kewell and the coaching team had another chance to run an eye over the squad and put them through their paces.
