Ange Postecoglou has expressed his disappointment with Celtic's performance against Livingston as he admitted: 'There will be some changes for sure.'
The Hoops dominated the bulk of possession as they ran out 2-1 winners over David Martindale's side at a packed out Parkhead. Liel Abada - the only change from the win over Aberdeen - justified his selection with two assists in the first period to put the Scottish champions two goals to the good. However, sloppy defending allowed the visitors to claw themselves back into the contest before the break.
The most important thing for the Hoops boss is the three points as they restored their nine point lead over Rangers at the Premiership summit. But again they missed some really good chances which has become the story of their season with Postecoglou admitting it is something they need to keep working on. He told Celtic TV: "Result good, performance not so good..

"We started the game well but I just thought we lacked a bit of a cutting edge in the front third to take advantage of our dominance.
"At 2-0 the game should've been over and the most disappointing thing is we let a really soft goal in. We've been pretty good this year and last year not conceding soft goals and that was a really soft one today.
"I think it was our own doing because we just didn't have enough numbers in the box. We know we get into those areas, we know where the ball is coming and you've got to work hard to get into those areas. People just weren't working hard enough to get into those areas.
"There are some really good opportunities we've missed to score goals so that's something we need to keep working on and emphasising with the guys. We should've been able to control it better in the second half."
Asked about Tony Ralston, he added: "We'll see how he pulls up, hopefully it's nothing too serious. But I think on performance alone I think there will be some changes for sure."
