Ange Postecoglou insists Celtic are ready to double down on their domestic dominance with a recruitment drive which has signings already identified for this summer.
The Hoops boss has overseen a relentless campaign which delivered the Viaplay Cup trophy last Sunday and they will attempt to bank a 24th win from their last 25 games when they meet St Mirren today. After outlining plans to bolster his squad in the next transfer window, Postecoglou admits his focus is on powering on when they arrive in Paisley. He said: “We are always trying to improve and as you said the results have been outstanding. As importantly, so have the performances. We are really strong and are getting stronger
“That is always our focus. Sometimes the performances are not always there even when the performances are but we have kind of married the two this year for the most part which has been great. We want to continue that until the end of the year and be strong. We are constantly looking at how we can be stronger for next year.
“I think if you look at every window since I have been here we have strengthened and we are already doing work to make sure we come out of the next window even stronger than when we enter it. That has got to be our ambition every time we enter this process.”
Postecoglou is also looking to add fresh faces at the earliest opportunity after a successful recruitment strategy which is based on bringing players in at the beginning of the window and not leaving transfer business to the last minute. He said: “Getting them in early has worked well for us. It has allowed players to come in and settle and contribute straight away and we will continue to do that.”

Jem Aswad Senior Music Editor The entertainment business is filled with polymaths, but this week’s “Strictly Business” podcast guest, Evan Bogart, is a rarity even by its standards: He’s a songwriter of hits for Beyonce, Rihanna, Lizzo and others; owner of the large publishing company Seeker Music; chair of the Recording Academy’s new songwriters and composers wing; and not least, son of the late, legendary Neil Bogart, founder of the 1970s powerhouse Casablanca Records, which brought the world Kiss, Donna Summer, Parliament-Funkadelic and the Village People. Neil is the subject of “Spinning Gold,” a biopic directed and written by Evan’s older brother Tim, for which Evan is executive music producer, and which comes out March 31.

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic Sometimes, when a documentary has a great subject, it can explore that subject with an intimacy that’s arresting, only to treat other aspects of the story with a kind of cavalier casualness. “Love to Love You Donna Summer” is that kind of documentary. Co-directed by Roger Ross Williams and Brooklyn Sudano (who is Summer’s daughter), it’s full of home movies and photographs and archival footage of Donna Summer, and it creates an eye-opening portrait of the ambitious yet deeply disconsolate woman she was. We see her when she was growing up in Boston, where she sang gospel in church and felt a gift passing through her, knowing that she was going to be famous, or when she moved to Munich in 1968, at 19, to be in the German production of “Hair” (there’s a startling clip of her onstage, in long dark pigtails, singing “Aquarius” in German), or later on, after she’d become a pop star, at home with her daughters, lost in the empty mirror of fame.
