The Celtic skipper continues to impress for Brendan Rodgers’ side.
Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers spoke to reporters after his die’s comfortable 3-0 win over Motherwell last night, and raved about the performance of Scott Brown, labelling the veteran midfielder as ‘fantastic’, as quoted by the club’s official website.
The 33-year-old made his 500th appearance for the Glasgow giants last nights and that in itself highlights his superb quality, professionalism and desire to remain at the very top level.
Celtic now sit back at the top of the Scottish Premiership table, one point clear of second placed Rangers, with a game in hand over their bitter rivals.
And Brown continues to prove that he is one of the Hoops’ most important players.
Rodgers raved about the midfielder, when speaking to reporters after last night’s win over Motherwell, praising the veteran for chalking up his 500th appearance for Celtic, as quoted by the club’s official website:
“To play 500 games for Celtic is a real testament to your professionalism, your perseverance and persistence, and your quality. He was fantastic, and we gave him a round of applause in the changing room. To play that number of games for a club like this, with the pressure here, is fantastic. He himself has been fantastic.”
Next up for Celtic is a home game against Dundee on Saturday, followed by crucial away trips to Aberdeen and Rangers respectively.
And Brown will have to be on his best form, if his side are to finish the year with three more wins.
