Ange Postecoglou heaped praise on Aaron Mooy and Daizen Maeda after star of the show performances at Easter Road.
The Australia international grabbed his first two goals for the club with his first a half-volley beyond David Marshall before he added a second from the penalty spot. Maeda also netted a stunner from range moments after missing a header from just three yards out. Kyogo Furuhashi rounded off the scoring with his 15th of the campaign to date in a very comfortable win. All focus now turns to Rangers at Ibrox next week with Celtic able to increase the gap to 12 points with a win.
Tonight's victory in the capital makes it 18 wins and just one defeat for the champions in the Premiership this season as they continue their relentless run of form. Postecoglou told Sky Sports: "Brilliant. He [Maeda] does that every week. I know sometimes people don't see the work he does for us and offers us in terms of energy and ability to cause opposition problems. He's been a bit unlucky on certain occasions with the end product but as you said he should have probably have scored the header.
