David Provan claims one Celtic fan favourite is hugely overrated
David Provan claims one Celtic fan favourite is hugely overrated. Celtic midfielder Scott Brown is reportedly on the radar of Western Melbourne. David Provan has written in The Scottish Sun that Celtic midfielder Scott Brown is hugely overrated. The former Celtic winger has claimed that Brown does not score enough goals and lacks discipline. The former Scotland international, though, has said that the 33-year-old is one of Celtic’s outstanding players and has given his take on speculation linking him with a move to Australia. Brown has been linked with a move away from Celtic, with Australian side Western Melbourne prepared to sign the 33-year-old former Scotland international, according to The Daily Mail. Provan wrote in The Scottish Sun: “I’ve never bought into the Scott Brown hype. Hugely overrated if you ask me. Too many square passes, not enough goals or discipline. “But you don’t play the number of games he has for Celtic and Scotland unless you have something about you. “Given what he’s shown over 11 years at Celtic, he’ll deservedly take his place in the pantheon of the club’s outstanding players. “Currently linked with a move to Australia, he’s earned the right to wind down any way he wants.” Big player Brown has been on the books of Celtic since the summer of 2007 when he joined from Hibernian for a transfer fee reported by The Guardian to be worth £4.4 million. The former Scotland international is one of the best players to have even turned out for the Hoops, and at the age of 33, he is still going strong. It would be a blow for Celtic if Brown leaves for Western Melbourne, and the Glasgow giants should try to keep hold of him.
