Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou praises Motherwell's 'goal threat'

Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou admits he has been impressed with the start opposite number Stevie Hammell has made at Motherwell, and says they're more of a goal threat.

The Australian hopes Hammell's side will provide a good challenge at Celtic Park this afternoon, as the sides clash in the Premiership.

And though he saw them lose 3-0 to Hearts last time out, the Celtic gaffer reckons Hammell's team are working well.

He said: "Stevie [Hammell] has gone in and made changes to the way they play. When you look at them, they are definitely more of a goal threat.

"I know they lost 3-0 to Hearts but when you look at the game they had quite a lot of opportunities.

"It can be hard when you come into a position during a season, you are inheriting a group of players and changing the style pretty drastically can have an effect on the team.

"But he’s certainly moulded the team to the way he wants to play and credit to him, good on him. Hopefully he continues on that path and they will provide a good challenge."
