Everything Ange Postecoglou had to say in his post-match interview with Celtic TV after the Hoops' draw with St Mirren at Parkhead...

Thoughts on today?

It was a tough game. Credit to St Mirren they worked hard which we knew they would and it was a tough game for us. We were not at our best in terms of working hard enough and putting the things in play that allow us to dominate a game. The boys found something to fight back and at least we got a share.

 Callum McGregor was frustrated at full-time. Do you agree with his concerns about the game's pace, certainly in the first half?

We never really got going and credit to them, but I just thought we lacked a little bit of urgency and energy, particularly without the ball. We are normally really good without the ball and we have just slipped off a bit in the last couple of weeks. When you do that it is hard to take control of the game with the ball as well, it is part of the way we set up that we need to continually put pressure on the opposition and we didn’t do that.

 Kyogo Furuhashi and Callum McGregor stepped up, didn’t they?

Yeah, look, they found a way to get a result out of the game which is important for us and they were both good goals. As I said, we didn’t reach the levels we wanted to.

Meanwhile, Celtic star Jota has been brutally trolled by his team-mate Alistair Johnston over his lack of game time at Benfica.

The Portuguese winger was on the books of his boyhood heroes before venturing to Scotland in the summer of 2021.

Celtic Way: Celtic Way Specia lOffer

The winger came through the academy at the Portuguese giants, signing for their youth team in 2007.

Jota spent three years in the B team before being handed his first team debut in 2019.

He went on to make 23 first-team appearances for the Liston outfit. 

The 24-year-old then spent a season on loan at Real Valladolid in Spain, before joining Celtic, initially on loan, the following year.

The dynamic attacker hit the ground running in Glasgow and has never looked back under Ange Postecoglou's stewardship.

That doesn't mean there aren't still some sore points about his footballing past.

Jota appeared alongside Johnston and Carl Starfelt in an interview of the new Celtic View podcast.

And in a teaser clip posted on Twitter, it was here that Canadian international Johnston hit the target with his brutal wind-up.

Each of the players were set the task of answering a series of quick-fire quiz questions about their teammates' careers.

At one point, right-back Johnston was asked: "Where did Celtic sign Jota from?"

Quick with his witty replu, AJ joked: “Bench-fica”, which was cleary a cheeky reference to Jota's lack of game-time at his previous club.
