The hairdryer has stayed in the holster this season. Even the death stare Ange Postecoglou learned from his old man hasn’t been needed much during Celtic’s surge to back-to-back titles.
No one at Parkhead is in any doubt who is in charge but the Hoops boss reckons his self-starters have made motivation a breeze during his time in Scotland. Postecoglou sets the tone in the dressing room but he reckons his players are fuelled by their own desire and determination for success. He was on board with the demands at Celtic from day one, but his group have also fully embraced the sky high expectations set from the support and installed the same fire into every single new face that has walked through the doors.
And that is what has sent Celts on a sensational run of form that’s delivered another title in such emphatic fashion. Last term's success was perhaps an unexpected thrill. The challenge of improving this term was no mean feat, but they have met it full on.
