Gabby Agbonlahor makes Ange Postecoglou claim after watching Celtic beat Hibs
I think all the Celtic fans are in agreement that the football that they are watching under Brendan Rodgers is, for want of a better word, boring.
I think I can count on one hand the amount of times I have been genuinely impressed with how Celtic have played this season.
The 6-0 against Aberdeen being one and the two wins over Rangers are up there. The 3-0 win over Dundee was pretty good but barring that, most of the games have been a tough watch.
And last night was no better. Despite winning the game 2-1, Celtic were bereft of any attacking intent as Rodgers’ side struggled to overcome a Hibs side that had just been taught a lesson by St Mirren on Saturday.
And that has led Gabby Agbonlahor to make this claim about Ange Postecoglou after the former Aston Villa striker watched Celtic toil in Leith.
Agbonlahor said [], “Teams do up their game against Rangers and Celtic. It’s always been like that.
“It’s like you say, Ange would have got a better result last night.”
I think all Celtic fans are in agreement that the football they watched under Postecoglou was night and day compared to Rodgers.
And to add to that, Ange’s record against Hibs was pretty solid. In eight meetings, Postecoglou won six of those, drew one and lost one.
The Aussie gaffer’s team scored 22 goals against Hibs and conceded just six. Of the games played at Easter Road, Ange racked up a 4-2 loss, a 0-0 draw and then three wins of 4-0, 2-1 and 3-1. []
Brendan Rodgers’ record against is well documented. Last night was his first-ever win at Easter Road. However, in 10 SPFL fixtures against the Easter Road side, the current Hoops gaffer has won six, drew three and lost two.
With 15 goals scored and 10 conceded Rodgers’ biggest wins over Hibs were at home with a 4-2 and 4-1 win.
With less games, Ange’s record against blows Rodgers’ out of the water but would Ange have gotten a better result than last night? That is up for debate.
What isn’t though is that the Australian would definitely have gotten a better performance, that’s for sure.
