Kyogo Furuhashi is demoralising defenders by running them ragged for an hour. And partner-in-crime Giorgos Giakoumakis is arriving on to the scene to deliver the final knockout blows to the bedraggled opposition.
It’s just how Ange Postecoglou wants it. Celtic relentless from start to finish. And it’s a situation which should put this constant and often pointless discussion about the Japanese and the Greek being paired together from the start of a game to bed once and for all.
Kyogo has scored the opening goal in each of the last three Premiership matches to set his team on their way to winning. He has scored every one of them from bang in front of the sticks. Right where you’d want his finishing ability. Where you’d want and know Giakoumakis will be. Of course, Kyogo is good enough and intelligent enough to play off a side. He’s done it already for Celtic, but it’s not really his best position.
