Ange Postecoglou has told Michael Beale he was right to call him ‘lucky’. Rangers manager Beale caused a stir earlier this week by claiming his Celtic counterpart is a fortunate man to have more millions at his disposal for the transfer market than he has as Rangers manager.
And Postecoglou was in no mood to deny his good fortune as he declared he leads a “fantastic” club. Ahead of this evening’s Viaplay Cup semi-final showdown with Kilmarnock, the Celtic boss said: “I agree, mate. I’m an extremely lucky man. I work for a fantastic football club with fantastic people. I’ve got a beautiful family. I’ve been doing this for 25 years now and long may it continue.”
The Aussie’s more immediate concern is picking a team to reach the cup final and he is adamant that transfer speculation surrounding striker Giorgos Giakoumakis and Josip Juranovic will not affect his decision on who lines up at the national stadium - although he revealed that no offer for any of his players has landed on his desk.
