Celtic hero Kieran Tierney says he is so impressed with how Greg Taylor is faring under Ange Postecoglou that he's taking tips from the Hoops star.
Tierney left Celtic in 2019 for a then-record Scottish Premiership sale fee of £25m, with Arsenal the side that took the plunge for his signature after seriously impressing under Brendan Rodgers and Neil Lennon both domestically and continentally. Having been slightly hindered by injuries in his time at the Emirates, Tierney has found a route back into the team with Aleksandr Zinchenko out on the sidelines at present.
But despite the Lennoxtown graduate testing himself against some of the best clubs in the world in Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea to name but a few, he admitted that he is vastly impressed by Taylor's performances for Celtic in his absence - claiming he takes tips from his fellow Tartan Army teammate and regularly texts him ahead of Scotland's crunch clashes against Republic of Ireland and Ukraine over the coming days.

"Aye, brilliant. Inverted full-back, that's how we play down there. I watch him every week, trying to take tips from him," Tierney admitted.
"It's brilliant to see him doing so well because he's a great guy. I'm really close to him, I speak to him a lot. So yeah, I'm buzzing for him.
"We watch each other's games, always, and text each other as well. It's a new role for me and it's a role where he's really comfortable in. It's great to watch him and he's been one of Celtic's best players this season.
"Greg just keeps working hard, his attitude is brilliant. As I say, I'm delighted to see him doing so well. He's a great guy who deserves all the credit that he's getting just now."
