Ange Postecoglou is adored by the Celtic support as some kind of Wizard of Oz who has transformed the club from trophyless to likely Treble-winners in the space of 20 success-soaked months.
But in the week that saw him dump Rangers for the third match running and in which his team can win the title at Tynecastle, the Australian is adamant he couldn’t have done it on his own. He might have arrived in this country without a No.2 or any of his own backroom team - although he added countryman Harry Kewell in the months that followed - but Postecoglou is insistent that without the backing of everyone at the club from boardroom to treatment room, a run that will bring his trophy haul to five out of six if Inverness are beaten in the Scottish Cup final, none of it would have been possible.
“Please don’t be mistaken: I am no one-man show,” he said. “I have fantastic people around me who provide the information that allows me to make the best decisions. That’s what I do, I make decisions and I don’t do that in isolation. I have fantastic people in every department: coaching, sports science, medical, scouting, analysis, media. My function is to make the decisions. I will take the responsibility but I’m not doing this on my own, this is far from a one-man show.”
