Just interested to see where everyone currently stands on Browns constant starting selection
Would you start him Sunday after starting about 10 matches in a row?IMO it isn't black or white. I'd selectively play Broony. Introduce Soro carefully - sometimes even alongside Brown. Our captain still has a massive part to play in this season but not always on the pitch. This should have been dealt with using good managerial skills.
But I repeat IMO Brown could have contributed more if his game time had been managed better.as he is probably the fittest 35 year old in British football for a long long time.
For this particular game I'd probably start him. But I would never have started him in so many other games in a row beforehandWould you start him Sunday after starting about 10 matches in a row?
We don't need Brown to be starting anymore games imo, he's now a hindrance to the team & that has been proven factually through the data from Juco James & the Celtic By Numbers guy.For this particular game I'd probably start him. But I would never have started him in so many other games in a row beforehand
I have been crying out for Soro to have been given a chance since the start of the srason, but Broony still has a big part to play and IMO shouldn't be written off just yet.
I may be wrong about Soro but I think we have a tidy player there. But he desperately needs game time to prove himself. But we also need Broony fo many games too.

That is because he is starting - and playing 90 minutes - in far too many games. I've been arguing since before the season started that his time on the pitch should be carefully managed. Like many I don't believe it has been.We don't need Brown to be starting anymore games imo, he's now a hindrance to the team & that has been proven factually through the data from Juco James & the Celtic By Numbers guy.
Scott Brown believe it or not is producing similar level stats to Gary Dicker at Kilmarnock, that's how far he's fallen.
We will not win the league with a Gary Dicker level player in the middle of the park.That is because he is starting - and playing 90 minutes - in far too many games. I've been arguing since before the season started that his time on the pitch should be carefully managed. Like many I don't believe it has been.
But I also don't think he is completely finished yet and can still positively contribute if handled carefully.
I also don't buy that he needs more rest between games, he just shouldn't be starting any. He had a good rest at the last International break before returning against Hibs & he was shocking after the first 20 mins.That is because he is starting - and playing 90 minutes - in far too many games.

But my point is he would probsbly be a much higher level of player if his game time was managed properly. Plus we'd have the benefit of introducing the talented - but still fairly inexperienced- Soro into the team in a comtrolled manner.We will not win the league with a Gary Dicker level player in the middle of the park.
But he got two weeks rest before Hibs away & was poor after 15 mins?But my point is he would probsbly be a much higher level of player if his game time was managed properly.

There's 10 other players on the pitch,Broon's busy firefighting,should he start every single game? no,but he's still vital,everyone in the squad look to him.But he got two weeks rest before Hibs away & was poor after 15 mins?
Yet he was the one that gave away the daft penalty which gave Hibs the lead.There's 10 other players on the pitch,Broon's busy firefighting,should he start every single game? no,but he's still vital,everyone in the squad look to him.
Everyone in the squad look to him, yet we've failed to qualify for the CL at the expense of absolute diddies under him as captain in so many seasons, where was his influence in all those failures if everyone looks to him?There's 10 other players on the pitch,Broon's busy firefighting,should he start every single game? no,but he's still vital,everyone in the squad look to him.
El Hatem and Barkas agains Ferencvaros?Everyone in the squad look to him, yet we've failed to qualify for the CL at the expense of absolute diddies under him as captain in so many seasons, where was his influence in all those failures if everyone looks to him?
When did ye start supportin Celtic?Everyone in the squad look to him, yet we've failed to qualify for the CL at the expense of absolute diddies under him as captain in so many seasons, where was his influence in all those failures if everyone looks to him?
That's been proven as a myth the St Johnstone game, Juco James said our MF lost no duels in the middle of the park all game until Brown came on in that game. The introduction of two strikers & Rogic behind them is why we won.El Hatem and Barkas agains Ferencvaros?
Julienne and Ajer against Copenhagen?
phuxake,if Broon hidnae came on against St Johnstone we would've got feck all from that game!
From birthWhen did ye start supportin Celtic?
