Michael Stewart has hailed Ange Postecoglou for turning Celtic's fortunes around in a short space of time.
The former Hearts and Hibs midfielder watched as the Hoops dominated AZ Alkmaar in Europa League action at Parkhead and was quick to applaud the Scottish club for their attacking prowess.
He also aimed a pop at Eddie Howe after the Englishman was in talks before Celts hired Postecoglou and suggested there are NO Hoops fans who are still gutted the former Bournemouth man did not take the role.
It really makes you wonder where Celtic would be if Ange Postecoglou had been appointed during the last campaign. I don’t think they’d have been beaten by Midtjylland for a start.

In three separate tweets, Stewart said: "Penny for Eddie Howes thoughts! Can’t imagine there’s a single Celtic supporter who is disappointed he chose not to join their club.
"I don’t think anyone could’ve seen this turnaround happening so quickly under Postecoglou. Still a long way to go, but this Celtic team are a real unit. Hounding teams down in packs and attacking in numbers with real quality.
