'There's your headline': Ange Postecoglou speaks on Celtic 't word' and prospect of three Rangers matches

Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou allowed himself a mischievous riposte as to how the narrative around his team has changed over the course of the past six months that have witnessed a 30-game domestic unbeaten run in the aftermath of his team’s comfortable 3-0 Scottish Cup semi-final victory away to Dundee United.

It was enquired of Australian as to whether, with his team top of the table, in the last four of the cup – where they have been drawn against Rangers – and the League Cup already banked, the “t word” entering his mind.

“At the start it was all trouble, now it is all treble. That’s a terrible pun. There’s your headline,” he said with a wince. “The important thing is that we are still in the competition and at this stage of the season we have given ourselves an opportunity for success. That is the expectation here. That expectation is on me and everyone at the football club. The players need to embrace that.

“We can’t think just because we have won a trophy already that it is going to be a good season. We want to win every competition we are in and given ourselves a chance to do that. Particularly at this end of the season and we have given ourselves a chance. It should also help with the confidence.”
