    I dont think there are many big characters in this side or those who are real leaders and would give a few a kick up the * when needed. And although Brown embodies that, i think he can be guilty of being too pedestrian on the ball or trying to play at his own pace. But now more than ever we need the leaders in the squad to get us on the right track and I hope Brown, being a winner, can do this for us.

    I think we should be looking to bring someone in to compete with him with a view to being his successor.

    We should be looking at a lot more glaring problems that ain’t the Broony ATM. But yes, it’s among the top of the list “must do.” He is pedestrian at times and unsuccessfully acting in his fitness ability. We don’t always get ourselves up to the heights but those times that you step back and nod in appreciation in Europe 94.52% of the time he’s involved.:50:

    Not on here to defend Broony, but to ask who replaces him, not as a player but as a leader. I don't see anyone who leads on the park, maybe Ajer but still not sure. I think we need a couple of leaders on the pitch who get the team by the scruff of the neck and make a difference.

    I agree Brown isnt the biggest issue.. getting back on track, recruitment, sorting the defensive organisation, a goalkeeper and another left back are higher priorities right now.

    But for me, Brown has made two or three errors in europe now which have been very costly. The handball, the needless kick on neymar for his red and im sure there was one other big one.

    Larsson was on another level, as a player and as a professional. I dont even know how it can even be close.

    I think there's problems behind the scenes with Brown and Lenny.

    I never would have predicted that when Lenny came in, but it's happening

    What makes you say that?

    He played about 6 games in 2 weeks. Needed a rest.

    He needs to be phased out this season as sad as that is, only problem is we have * all to replace him with.

    so brown will be playing against the huns, who is playing with him and can our midfield cope with their physicality ?

    it looks to me like another change of formation think we have to play 3 center midfielders

    i thought neil was playing the same formation as last year 4231 but now because we are looking a bit ropey defensively it has to be changed

    I was told from someone who has decent contact at Celtic there has been an issue with Brown and Lenny behind the scenes.

    But in saying that they seem type of characters that could straight talk it out in private. So I expect it should blow over.

    I still expect Lenny to start him on Thursday weather they iron it out by then or not. But it's not a great environment to have.

    I am not sure who you know but there are disagreements and there's also fall outs. The way that they both responded to the most recent public spat points to the former for me.

    I'm not itk though.

    Kouassi was going to be his replacement, but hes *
    McGinn was going to be his replacement, but we * that up due to penny pinching.
    Turnbull was going to be his replacement but the transfer fell through.

    The 'Celtic Way' of dealing in the transfer market. :38:
