After watching his side beat Hamilton Accies 2-0 Brendan Rodgers revealed the biggest lesson he has learned in coaching.
The hoops boss passed his first coaching qualification 20 years ago and is on course for a record breaking season.
Celtic have won 25 and drawn one of their 26 SPFL matches this season and are three Scottish Cup wins away from the domestic treble.
Within months Rodgers transformed a Celtic side that looked on it’s knees into one that could draw home and away with Manchester City in the Champions League.
Rodgers management skills cover many areas but after today’s win he highlighted the most important lesson he has picked up over 20 years.

Moussa Dembele scored in each half to give Celtic full points, the first a glorious 20 yarder with the second coming from the penalty spot.
In midweek Celtic go to Inverness Caley Thistle before hosting St Mirren at home in the Scottish Cup.
