Ange Postecoglou says he doesn’t care about comments from Rangers coach Neil Banfield.
And the Celtic boss insists it’s not his concern if something has upset Michael Beale’s Ibrox assistant as it’s nothing to do with him. Postecoglou made his feelings clear ahead of Sunday's Hampden Scottish Cup semi-final between the two clubs. During a recent interview, Banfield said that Rangers were “coming” for their rivals. However, more intriguingly, the Ibrox coach went further by stating Postecoglou has previously “said things that left a little taste in the mouth” and also claimed a quote from the Aussie following the Viaplay Cup Final in February had “landed” on him.
Asked what he made of such remarks, Postecoglou said: “Nothing. I’m not really sure what he’s referring to. It was mentioned to me that he was upset about something. I’ve said it a million times, every manager and every representative of every football club has the platform to use it the way they like to. It’s my prerogative not to worry about what they say. Look, if I was going to worry about what people say I wouldn’t have lasted a month here.
