In the throes of victory, it is often difficult to quantify the level of achievement until after the hysteria has subsided and calmness envelops you.

It is often from this removed position that perspective kicks in and a sense of accomplishment can be fully appreciated.

For Stefan Johansen, that moment of clarity is only a few weeks away.

It has been one of the most memorable seasons - and certainly the busiest - the Norwegian has enjoyed during a career which seems to go from strength to strength.

After joining Celtic last January from Stromsgodset in his homeland, Johansen went on to win an SPFL Premiership title under Neil Lennon.

With three games left in a current campaign which is almost pushing 60 games for him, it is a feat the talented internationalist has already surpassed.

The 24-year-old has another league winner's medal and now a League Cup winner's medal to show for his efforts.

Of course, the disappointment at not having a Scottish Cup gong to add to his collection is still there, especially given the circumstances in which Celtic's Treble chase came to an abrupt and premature halt at Hampden last month.

Yet when the dust settles on another frantic season for the Parkhead club that has seen them fight a war on five fronts, Johansen is firm in his belief that great satisfaction can be garnered from their efforts.

"As a person I don't get satisfied right in the moment," he said. "Once the season is over and I go on holiday with my missus and I sit and think back on the season, then I will understand how big it is.

"Just now, you are so in the zone that you want to finish the season well.

"I would say it was a very successful season for us. I don't think people realise how difficult it is to win a Treble - it is every single game. It's almost like you can't have one bad game.

"It can come down a decision which goes for you or against you.

"We won two trophies, which we would have taken if you had asked some of us at the start of the season, or when we went out of the Champions League.

"Everyone wanted it with all of their hearts, we wanted it as much of the fans, but you cannot complain about two trophies. Celtic is all about winning silverware and last year we only took one.

"To take two this year was great and who knows, maybe next year we will get all three."

Johansen has been a standout for Celtic this season.

It's not that he was a bad player in the first place under Lennon, but the presence of Ronny Deila, his mentor from Stromsgodset, and the system he has been asked to operate in has seen his profile rise quicker than an Empire State Building lift.

Man-managed closely by his fellow-countryman, Johansen's switch to the front of a central midfield three is what many believe has been the key to him impressing enough to be voted this season's PFA Player of the Year.

Working in front of Scott Brown and Nir Bitton, he has been given licence in recent months to join in attacks, a tactic which has worked extremely well as his 12 goals will testify.

"I've moved a little bit," explains Johansen. "I started the season more as a deep-lying midfielder, but then I got the chance as a No.10.

"I've worked on my role there. In that position you have to score goals. I didn't score as many goals earlier in my professional career. That's the things I've been working on."

He added: "I think it suits me better. It's always difficult to say something else when it goes well.

"Broony played a lot when I came last year, but Nir as well has impressed me so much this season."

"The way they control the game is so important for us. It makes my job much easier. If you find the pockets up there, you know they will find you.

"They are in good positions all the time. They are very important for the team. Right now it suits me to play there when you have quality players around you."

Johansen is keen to heap praise on those around him, and the man who stands in the Celtic dugout is no exception.

Despite winning two trophies, Deila was overlooked for manager of the year in favour of John Collins, who has guided Inverness to their first-ever Scottish Cup final as well as keeping them on course for a shot at Europe.

It is a feat Johansen is aware of, especially given the much smaller resources of the Highland club.

Yet he remains baffled at how the man who took Celtic to a double as well as the knockout stages of the Europa League was not recognised for his efforts.

"The Inverness gaffer did well but I don't know what more Ronny can do," said Johansen.

"To win three trophies is extremely difficult. We won the league and cup, but maybe it is because the expectations at Celtic are so high."

As Johansen reflects on all that he and his team-mates have achieved this summer, those great expectations are sure to grow even more for a man who has the world at his feet.
