Ange Postecoglou's Celtic stand on the shoulders of Treble giants and doom merchants can't take shine off - Chris Sutton

The title is not quite yet in the bag for Celtic but now the talk has shifted to see just how many points they can finish up with this term.

Ange Postecoglou could set a record total – but already we’ve got some of the doom and gloom merchants trying to take off some of the shine. There’s been people making noises about the quality of the opposition in the Premiership this season. Don’t pay any attention.

If Postecoglou can surpass the 103 total posted by our Celtic side under Martin O’Neill in 2002 and the mind-blowing 106 of Brendan Rodgers’s sensational Invincible campaign in 2017, it would be an incredible achievement. The first task will be making mathematically sure but it’s well on course to being a fantastic year, regardless of where the team finishes up in terms of points or in the Scottish Cup. The level of consistency they have shown this term and the thrilling brand of football they’ve played deserve to be recognised.
