Celtic midfielder Tomoki Iwata has praised Ange Postecoglou's style of play, calling it "attractive".

The Japanese midfielder, who played under the Australian at Yokohama F Marinos, has started in the last two matches against Kilmarnock and Motherwell.

And Iwata was keen to make clear he is enjoying life in Glasgow.

Speaking to Celtic TV, he said: "I have started to be involved in the games. Having two starts, there were moments I could express myself within the game, but also some parts of the game I felt I had to improve more and more for Celtic to win.

"So, I feel I got a lot of confidence as well as new challenges in the past two weeks.

"At the beginning, I found there were many differences and it was difficult for me to adapt, to be honest.

"But I got support from the players and staff to settle in quickly and I thank them for that.

"My condition is improving and I hope that is helping the team as well.

"I feel very happy as a player. There are managers out there but I think the football under the boss is very attractive.

"I really enjoy the training day to day. I'm having a great time here."

Meanwhile, Motherwell striker Kevin van Veen has praised Celtic, claiming the Hoops are "miles ahead" of everyone else in Scotland.

The Dutchman scored in the 1-1 draw at Parkhead as Ange Postecoglou's side failed to win at home for the first time this season.

And after the match, the 29-year-old had nothing but good things to say about the Scottish champions.

Speaking to the Daily Record, he said: "Celtic are miles ahead of everybody, for me. 

"To go to their stadium and get a point, it feels like a victory. You need to be respectful – but you need to have a pair of balls. 

"You have to come here and not be scared, because if you get scared they will roll you over.

"Kyogo is the best striker in the league. He’s the man with the most brains for me, he’s clever. 

"Of course I’m trying to put pressure on but all due respect to Kyogo, he’s amazing, but I need to look after myself as well."
