The Aaron Mooy Celtic 'surprise' factor as Ange Postecoglou must take credit for 'remarkable' role

Celtic fans may have been 'surprised' by the electric form of Aaron Mooy but it was always going to be a success because he's playing under Ange Postecoglou.

That is the view of former Hibs hitman Tam McManus who says the Australian boss' ability to uncover smart signings has been proved exponentially by the arrival of Mooy. Since the World Cup the former St Mirren man has been a revelation for the league leaders after a tough start to life in Glasgow.

The 32-year-old has dominated the Celtic midfield with two goals and two assists in his last four games including a sweet lob in the Hoops' 4-1 win over St Johnstone on Sunday. But the Australian - whose signing came somewhat under the radar - has taken major confidence from playing under Postecoglou again according to McManus.
