    Lenny needs to utilise him properly looked well off the pace before his injury in the first leg..

    Still a massive player for us but we need to rest him properly.

    He needs phased out of the team. Its no coincidence that we play our best football when he is missing.

    how many times now do we see people go past him with a drop of the shoulder or a bit of pace!

    He has been a fantastic servant, but everything comes to an end.

    Broony was way off the mark .
    He needs to be used sparingly now .

    Still a crucial player for us on and off the park.

    I do feel McGregor and Christie with Rogic/Ntcham could be used a lot more together than they are though.

    Brown doesn’t need to be overplayed domestically, particularly at home, when we’ve got that talent available.

    He's not finished but he's declining and against younger players who press it shows esp in Europe

    Broony's influence on the park is massively over exaggerated these days. Domestically yes he's solid but in Europe he's found wanting more often than not in these crunch games recently, easily overran, slow to react, no influence on the ball in an attacking sense.

    I disagree quite heavily with this. Until last night he was one of our most consistent players. He has been putting in good performances of late and has been thrown back into a tough tie when not fully fit. The other options were Bitton or Soro

    again id have to disagree. He often does the simple things well and breaks up play. He is the most physical of our centre mids. Its a rash reaction to what was a disappointing performance.

    well entitled to youre opinion mate, but i believe celtic are a different animal with brown in the side now.

    he is constantly dropping too deep, invites pressure, the side to side passing, his lack of pace is very visible now.

    This isnt a knee * reaction to last nights game, scott brown is regressing and should start to be phased out of the side.

    Because its \o/ and he can't be dropped,i seem to think a season or two ago he decided to play when not fit and we got beat by hearts....but i may have the team wrong.
    Same reason other players do not get dropped when off form...lennon likes his first 11,but to be fair all managers are like that.

    We needed his replacement sorted about 3 seasons ago, that’s not me saying he’s done it’s basic forward * planning. Just as Lambert and Lennon had to be replaced, but * me are we making a complete * of it.

    In terms of a combative midfielder who would've given his all for the club he would've been the closest fit to the inevitable Brown shaped hole that we will see in this team in the near future.

    Suspect he would not have played if either Christie or Nicham were available.
    Would like to see him rested for Sunday and have him back firing on all cylinders for Livi, as them * will take liberties if Brown missing.
