Ange Postecoglou rejects Celtic Cameron Carter-Vickers theory as boss makes 'gone off it' admission

Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou was not best pleased with his squad as he denied Cameron Carter-Vickers' absence had a say in their draw with St Mirren - stating his side had 'gone off it'.

A lacklustre performance allowed St Mirren to secure an unlikely but very much deserved point on Saturday. The Buddies led twice, but saw their lead cancelled out by Kyogo Furuhahsi and a late Callum McGregor strike as they battled valiantly to a draw in the east end of Glasgow. Despite the title already being wrapped up for the Celtic, fans will be disappointed with the manner of the draw and the performance that came with it.

It makes no difference to the league table in Celtic's mind, but that is twice in the past few weeks that they have dropped points at home to a team battling in and around the mid-table places. And Postecoglou backed his players to come back, adding that Cameron Carter-Vickers' absence wasn't the reason.
