Ryan Christie has opened up on his Celtic exit second thoughts as he detailed Ange Postecoglou's 'all or nothing' approach.
The Hoops are just potentially 90 minutes away from completing a domestic Treble this weekend as they take on Inverness Caley Thistle - another former club of the Scotland international - at Hampden.
Celtic have already bagged the League Cup after victory over Rangers at the same venue earlier this year while the Scottish Premiership was won for a second successive season at the start of the league split in what has been an excellent campaign for the champions. They are out to round it off in style and make it five trophies out of six for Ange.
The 57-year-old is now reportedly the 'preferred candidate' for the vacant Tottenham job as Daniel Levy looks to find a permanent successor for Antonio Conte. It is belived the EPL side will step up their interest in the Aussie boss following the showpiece at the national stadium this weekend.

Bournemouth star Christie has witnessed the approach of Postecoglou first hand and admits it was one of the main considerations when weighing up his future. His all or nothing mindset has brought much success, an evident sign in this Celtic team says Christie.
He told BBC Sport Scotland: "I got to see first hand for a couple of months how good Ange was. It was one of the main things in my head when I was thinking about staying.
"I was really impressed and it's not a surprise to me what Celtic have done since he came through the door.
"I got a pre-season under him and I loved the way he wanted to play and loved the way he got his point across on the training pitch.
"He was so all or nothing with his beliefs. When you have that absolute mindset, it normally pays off and you're seeing that with the Celtic team right now."
