Ange Postecoglou has received plenty plaudits from pundits, fans and the wider-football community for his work in the transfer market to date at Celtic.
The 57-year-old arrived last summer and instantly showed his eye for a player as he tapped into the Far East market and beyond to bring in top talents to Parkhead. The likes of Kyogo Furuhashi, Liel Abada, Daizen Maeda, Joe Hart, Jota, Cameron Carter-Vickers and Josip Juranovic to name a few have all proved fruitful additions and delivered instant success.
Two other players who have stood out since their arrivals nearly a year ago are Matt O'Riley and Reo Hatate. Plucked from MK Dons in England's lower leagues and from Japanese outfit Kawasaki Frontale, both have really impressed and made themselves mainstays in team. Lambert was aware of O'Riley from his time managing in England. He hailed his eye for a pass and great ability to play off two-touch while Hatate is another he is a huge of and believes mastering one key area will take his game to the next level at Celtic.
