Greg Taylor says he loved ‘playing and working under’ Ange Postecoglou at Celtic

Taylor has won trophies under all three managers but it seems that it’s Ange Postecoglou who has earned a special place in the PAOK player’s heart.

Taylor told The Celtic Way, “They all had their own ways, but I am grateful to the three of them for different reasons.

“Neil brought me to the club, gave me my first opportunity and believed in me as a really young player coming from another team in Scotland. I loved playing and working under him.

“In the case of Ange, he completely elevated my Celtic career. I had played a fair amount of games, and had done more than fine, in my opinion.

“However, he just brought in a way of playing that really suited my game and one that I really enjoyed being a part of.

“Lastly, Brendan was amazing, but for different reasons. He was similar to Ange in terms of his style of play, but the personal relationship he had with me was unbelievable.

“He was so open and welcoming, while taking a real interest in the stuff off the pitch as well as on it.

“All three managers were incredibly successful, and you can see why they have all had really good careers.”

What Greg Taylor won under three Celtic managers

Taylor has won 11 domestic trophies over his six-year spell at Celtic under Postecoglou, Lennon and Rodgers.

Here is what he has won under each Celtic icon:

• Neil Lennon: 1 x Scottish Premiership, 1 x Scottish Cup
• Ange Postecoglou: 2 x Scottish Premiership, 1 x Scottish Cup, 2 x League Cup
• Brendan Rodgers: 2 x Scottish Premiership, 1 x League Cup, 1 x Scottish Cup
