Joe Hart was a 23-year-old in the Champions League and felt he could take on the world. Now, having suffered some dips in his career since before returning to the highs at Parkhead, the Celtic keeper has a more rounded outlook.
He’s still thrilled to be back, he’s just seeing it differently. And he insists boss Ange Postecoglou has the squad believing they can have a real crack at the big guns. Hart and the squad are looking forward to Thursday’s group-stage draw.
At the age of 35, the Hoops No.1 is honest enough to confess that he felt those days might be gone. Hart said: “It’s crazy. There’s so much going on and you don’t even know who’s going to be in it yet. I live right in the moment and, even when it’s drawn, you’re not going to be playing them for a couple of weeks. But it’s a great time. It’s where the club wants to be, it’s where we want to be as players.
