Straightforward Ange Postecoglou insists he's no liar when it comes to his gameplan - and won't be changing anything for this weekend's clash with Livingston.
Premiership leaders Celtic travel to West Lothian this weekend looking to shake off the Champions League blues and keep up their domestic rhythm. With Rangers in action 24 hours earlier, they will have the chance to either restore or extend their four-point lead at the top, but they know it won't be easy against the team who took points off their rivals last week and currently boast the best defensive record outside of the top two.
But will Livi's defensive proficiency force Postecoglou to adapt his usual gameplan to break them down? "No mate, I don’t lie to you and I don’t lie to the players," Postecoglou told one reporter. "What I say is what I say. We’ve got to play our football because within our football all those things are there.
“Whatever the challenge is, we’re not going to overcome it by changing our approach. That’s not going to work for us. What works for us, we have some basic fundamentals that we want to lean on – working hard, trying to dominate the game in possession and being really aggressive without the ball.

“When we do those things, irrespective of the opposition, home or away, we’re a tough team to beat. That’s what we’ve got to deliver on the weekend.”
