Lee Johnson says he was surprised to see Ange Postecoglou’s harsh response to his comments about the Scottish Premiership being ‘almost too easy’ for Celtic.
Postecoglou wasn't happy with the claim and also made reference to Michael Beale's comments when the Rangers manager said that the Celtic boss was lucky to have had plenty of money to spend on players.
Postecoglou claimed the choices of words in "easy" and "lucky" were deliberate, and that he would never use them to describe any other manager that way. However, addressing the issue after Hibs' defeat to Motherwell today, Johnson insisted the matter may have been taken out of context when put to Postecoglou and that he has nothing but respect for him.
