Greg Taylor was put on the spot and asked to pick between two of his former Celtic managers: Brendan Rodgers or Ange Postecoglou.

And the PAOK left-back insisted it's not a choice he is prepared to make.

Both managers enjoyed phenomenal success at Parkhead, with Taylor a fixture on the left of the back four under both as they swept aside all before them.

He admits both are very different managers but he wouldn't like to make a choice on who was better.

Speaking on Charlie Mulgrew's Pitch to Par, Taylor said: "Both totally different, both are amazing. I wouldn't pick. I don't think it's fair to pick because both were, one, amazing for me, and two, both are unbelievable. Their track records speak for themselves.

"They are totally different. Brendan was way more personal, whereas Ange was probably more standoffish. Tactically, both are amazing. The football both teams played was amazing.

Asked if he had a preference between the two styles, he went on: "I think you just adapt. Adapt or die; you don't have a choice.

"I think if you're playing and you're playing well and you've got that relationship with a manager, it's brilliant. But if you're not playing and you're getting at it, it's making it harder. I love both of them.

"Actually, I'd mention Neil Lennon as well. I loved him as well. He signed me for Celtic, so I wouldn't leave him out either."
