BEING a centre-back at Celtic may once have been looked upon as something of a cushy number. Most weeks domestically, after all, you are playing for a team that keeps the ball at the other end of the pitch for the majority of the game.
There is no such thing as a comfort zone at the club any more though, with defenders expected to contribute in possession just as much as their attacking counterparts, and the centre-halfs tasked with being the starting point for the attack under Ange Postecoglou’s system.
