The Celtic no risk, no reward game plan Joe Hart and Co working on as Ange Postecoglou explains role

Ange Postecoglou has opened up on the no risk, no reward approach for Joe Hart and the other goalkeepers as they get used to the Celtic game plan.

The former England international noticeably positioned himself outside the box as his team-mates pressed forward in the Hoops' 4-2 pre-season win over Banik Ostrava in the Czech Republic. He was almost caught out on a couple of occasions during the match, but the Aussie boss puts that down to his team and not the opposition.

Postecoglou wants his Celtic team to be more aggressive and says in order for that to happen the whole team needs to play a part - including the goalkeeper. Veteran stopper Hart arrived late last summer and was a key man in winning the Premiership title back from Rangers and will no doubt play a huge part once again this campaign. With his late arrival in the summer window, there wasn't time to work on things but with a full pre-season under the belt at Parkhead, it has allowed for the new plan to materialise.
