Ange Postecoglou looked in need of a break as he faced up to his last round of post-match media interviews for a couple of weeks.
Celtic’s 0-0 draw with Everton followed by a 4-2 defeat on penalties wasn’t the outcome that he had wanted but there is always a bigger picture with the Celtic boss.
Since the start of September he has watched his squad perform in six Champions League ties, see how players dealt with the highs and lows of World Cup selection decisions and, for most, cope with a trip to the other side of the world that involved flag waving and two matches.
In eight days time it will be destination Portugal to prepare for the resumption of the SPFL, Postecoglou will head to Melbourne for a few days where work won’t be far from his mind.
Transfer window number four is fast approaching with the Celtic manager preparing to sell players at prime time as well as identifying and developing the talents to kick on more after a very impressive first 18 months at the club.
