Ange Postecoglou showed the same passion and fire that made him so popular at Celtic, this time after Tottenham reached the Europa League final last night. The club posted a video on social media of Ange speaking to his players after the win against Bodø/Glimt, and for Celtic fans, it felt familiar.
The way he spoke reminded many of the team talk he gave after Celtic won the league title at Tannadice in his first season. His message was full of belief in his players, just as it was during his time at Celtic. Ange’s words were all about focusing on the next step, not getting distracted by the achievement, and working together as a team.

Despite all of that, he emphasised that they had earned their place in a European final through hard work and determination. It was the kind of speech that motivated his Celtic team, reminding them of their strength and belief in what they could achieve, no matter the obstacles.

For Celtic supporters, it’s hard not to feel proud when seeing this. Ange might be at Tottenham now, but his leadership and passion are the same. His time at Celtic was special, and these moments show why so many Celtic fans still admire him.
Ange may have left Celtic, but his spirit and the way he made everyone feel part of something bigger still stay with us. His words and energy will always be remembered by Celtic fans. While he hasn’t had the easiest season, reaching a European Cup final is an incredible achievement, no matter what some may say.
