    He did one stray pass in the whole of the Dunfermline game and still his passing is discussed :rolleyes: His pass completion rate is high and only Kayal has better passing stats.

    Thought he was immense today. Like the others a few stray passes but he was everywhere. United have a great left side and IMO he is the only player who could have done that shift today.

    Immense again.

    Played like an actual wide man today which is very strange, drove the team forward.

    from what i saw of it today he looked very good still has a terrible first touch imo but he'll run through brick walls for the team ... sometimes literally

    Agree with that. He actually has a lot of attacking ability that he doesnt get to show that often. He showed some serious pace and change of pace as well as some great twisting a turning. Not too many players have that balance of defensive and attacking ability and such immense mobility and energy. That wee tucked in slightly right MF role really does suit him. Not too far off his Hibs role.

    Technically he's not the best but he did show good energy and drive, overall a good performance.

    I have no probs with Brown, he's an OK player, good for us, but he's overpaid. Take that money and do something else with it. If we are paying someone 30k these days, that guy is a difference maker who hoovers up points for us. Nothing else will really do at that wage.

    Didn't think he was great today but i think without Brown we miss that sort of 'bully' in the midfield who drives the team on. He's a good captain just not a brillant player IMO.

    Brown played well today. A few stray passes but he did nothing really wrong that looked as if he might cost us the game or a goal.

    We don't seem to lose many games when he is in the side and there's no doubt he plays for the jersey and always gives 100%.

    Obviously we all see the game and players very differently and as such have different viewpoints. I've nothing against those that see things differently because end of the day all I care about is Celtic winning.

    We win more games when he plays than we he doesn't

    Speaks volumes.

    Tony Mowbray has put me off 2 attacking wingers on either side for the rest of my life

    He was gash. I think now we've seen a proper right sided midfielder there in Forrest, when we are stuck with Brown there it's like a damp squib.

    Amazing how fans can have completely different opinions on performances. :56:

    IMO none of the players had a "Shocking" game, does that mean you thought Broon was our worst performer?

    I thought only Hooper could match Broon performance wise today. He drove us forward all game, passing was decent, got stuck in - as usual and then showed the side of his game that had him in such high demand while at Hibs.

    Thought he was great. :celt_2:

    Poor today. Skins the full back and cuts it back to absolutely nobody. * look up man. A few times where he could've attacked their goal and instead turned back and ran towards our defenders which was pretty puzzling.

    Played one of the worst passes you'll ever see in the first half too. I think he thought the corner flag was one of our players.
