Brown

I was at both and should have remembered oddly I'd got it in my head that the 4-2 win against Huddersfield was 3-3.

 

lol, I remember that as well now! We were 3.0 up against Huddersfield and they pulled it back to 3.2, I remember here we go again! But we won 4.2 thankfully

 

We collapsed at home to Blackburn or Birmingham or whoever Keith Andrews played for at the time. We were 2/3 up at half time under King Keef and I remember us being 7th on the live league table. I'm pretty sure Man Utd had called Drinkwater back the day before and he would be sold to Leicester.

Think we lost 2-5.

 

As I remember it it was on a snow covered pitch and almost three identical crosses converted at the back post. Forty years and considerable mental trauma might be tampering with my memory though!

 

Think that was Ipswich as well, lol. Live Sky game, leading at half time, lost 3.5. Davies missed a penalty as well at some point

 

Did he miss the penalty at 2-0?

 

Can't remember that bit lol....

 

Was that the one he skied up into Ponte.

 

It was at that end. We battered them until that moment.

 

Yes

 

That's the one.

 

I really like Brown and think his work rate, athleticism and intelligence off the ball were indispensable for us last year. He’s a top player for us. Having said that I do still think there are big question marks regarding his quality and decision making on the ball. He’ll turn into a very dependable player at championship level but no higher imo. And because of that this could be our only chance to get big money for him. If somebody offers us 3mil+ we should sell and reinvest.

 

Didn't Chopra score a hat trick in that one?

 

this obviously.

 

Nope - can’t see it.
Get thi sen a tally counter - then sit and watch each of the matches after the lockdown.
And count how many times the ball is played to Brown and nothing comes of it.
We survived in-spite of having no one else to play in that position.

 

No, but he got 1. Keith Andrews got a brace.

 

I remember that match. He put us 1-0 up with a penalty. Vaz Te scored before we capitulated.

 

Strikers & wingers give the ball away loads. That comes with the territory of receiving the ball higher up the pitch with less options & less space. Not sure what point you’re attempting to make or if you’re expecting me to go back & rewatch all of our post lockdown games.

If you can’t see how important Brown is for us as well not been able to see how important Mowatt is for us then I think it’s you who needs to be going back & watching games.

 

He would take some replacing as he can play in 4/5 positions in team . And potentially more improvement to come with experience and more games
