Celtic captain praises Neil Lennon.
Neil Lennon is hoping to do enough to earn the Celtic job on a permanent basis once again.
He has certainly got the backing from captain Scott Brown.
Brown is quoted by the Daily Record praising the simple way Lennon has kept the team focused since Brendan Rodgers’ surprise departure for Leicester City.
He said he has also met up with Lennon regularly over the past few years.
Brown said: “He has tried to keep everything the same as what Brendan was doing. He knew Brendan’s team was doing really well.
“He just wanted to keep everything as simple as possible and ensure we continue winning.
“For me we have kept in touch over the five or six years he has been away. We met up quite a bit. We always have a close bond.”
Brown’s bond with Lennon has certainly made it easier for Celtic to keep on track.
Having Scott Brown firing on all cylinders is key to getting Celtic ticking.
Win over Rangers at the weekend and the pair can hit the town celebrating getting closer to another title.
