Ange Postecoglou insists it's not his desire fuelling the hunt for a Celtic treble - but his responsibility at Parkhead.
The Celtic boss watched his side go 12 points clear at the top of the league with victory over Kilmarnock - who they'll meet at Hampden next week.
Postecoglou's men take on Kilmarnock in the League Cup semi-final on Saturday, January 14.
And the Celtic manager is hoping to improve on his Scottish Premiership and League Cup haul last season by going for a domestic treble.
Quizzed on his "desire" to achieve a complete domestic trophy triumph this season - Postecoglou insisted that's the kind of pressure he signed up for at Celtic.
Speaking on BBC Sportsound, he said: "It's got nothing to do with my desire, it's to do with my responsibility at this football club.
"You start every season wanting to win every domestic trophy that is available - that's what you sign up for.
"It's not actually in the contract but it might as well be there."
On extending the lead at the top of the table with Rangers to play tomorrow, the Celtic boss added: "We're comfortable with where we are. We know that there are still 17 games to go.
"We want to finish the season stronger than we started - that's our goal."
And discussing the upcoming Hampden clash, he concluded: "We're looking forward to it. It's going to be a tough game. A semi-final at Hampden, always a special day.
"We want to make sure we're successful to get to another final."
