I agree Max Raptor. A fit Brown is a great SPL midfielder. We need a Nakamura type beside him though as well as Crosas. N'Guemo is a poor mans Brown so far but could learn i suppose.
Good cop and bad cop have left for the day :
i'm a different kind of cop !

hopefully that ki guy is good, Zhi i think could come good and I wouldn't mind seeing the anaemic get a few games when we're more comforable in the league
Agreed
I think he's tougher than you give him credit foreasily shrugged off the ball,
Don't think he's ever been given license to get forward to do thatcant shoot
Agreed, been shocking as of late.cant pass
There's nobody better, nothing wrong with that, imogrowls at every opposing player
I wouldn't say that, he has bags of energy, he just needs to temper it with some control.contributes nothing else
I'll admit, I wanted rid of him, but I had no idea his injury was so bad, maybe he has been struggling.
He is going nowhere until at least the end of the season, lets get him fully fit and see how he fits into Mowbray's (or whoever) new look team, and then pass judgement.
And cheers Harry, the way you posted there made it easy to reply to you![]()

He would give the ball away far less if he was played ahead of the midfield, like he was last season when he got POTY.

Exactly.
Some fans think he's became a bad player over the summer. It's a combination of a few things, most noticably being played as a more defensive midfielder which has affected his game, not his ability.
He's never been able to pass particularly well, so to stick him right in the midfield was madness.

Totally. Playing beside a Nakamura and a Hartley made him a better player.
This season he's played beside N'Guemo mostly who is all over the place and finds himself everywhere bar in front of the defence for the bulk of matches. On top of this he plays with 2 wingers and a Left Back always getting caught up the park.
The biggest part of his game has always been his harrying although he can make great forward runs using his pace. Both have been completely taken out of his game protecting his injury which was stupid.
I don't really like Brown. I'd like to see a three man midfield with:
Crosas N'guemo Zhi
We Are All Georgios Samaras
A lot of yous rate Brown and say he is really good, yet a CM can't change to playing slightly deeper? Well he won't ever make it at the top level then imo. Maybe we wouldn't expect to see top class performances if he is slightly out of position but he has been horendous, their is no excuse.
Hope they get back fit as soon as possible, we need them no matter what people think.
Brown is a lot better than Robson, cant believe someone said we might end up with Caldwell in midfield if Robson gets injured - we might end up with Robson in midfieldCrosas has been doing well though he should start every game from now on with N'Guemo.
"What these players have to realise, is that when you put on the Celtic jersey you're not playing for a football team, you're playing for a community and a cause"
Robson is doing ok, so i aint losing sleep over this one.
Robson offers more than Brown imo. He's a better passer, he's a lot better at shooting and he's much better at set pieces. He also gets stuck in just like Brown but he has more discipline than Brown. Broon has a lot of energy but runs around like a headless chicken yet gets praised for that :confused: Bizzare.
The only thing Robbo has against him is that now he is getting on a bit.
"When you pull on that jersey you're not just playing for a football club, you're playing for a people and a cause"
God Bless Mr Celtic
I agree Ryan, Brown goes missing quite alot too.
