He was Huddersfield’s best defender with how much of our play he broke. I am not sure Huddersfield would agree that he was terrible - after Brown megged one of them from pace on the right wing (under pressure from another player from behind too!) next to the touchline, ran past the 2nd to go through on goal, who then panicked and brought him down in the box for our penno! You do crack me up at times Bayern!

The problem with “goal aside” is that is a very big omission. We also have no one in the squad who is going to score the same amount of goals as he is when he is played in the right position. Must be a very frustrating player to play alongside very difficult to anticipate him executing the simplest of things. Doesn’t really link well with other players either does stuff on his own or picks up scraps like tonight. Slick interplay is just something you’re never going to achieve with a player like that. Must be so hard for all of our other excellent footballers, I agree 😂

Apart from goals scored, passes completed, penalties won, ground duels won, aerial duels won etc. There’s no hope if you thought Brown had the better game. Correct. Brown is wank. Fuck him off and replace him. Heard there’s a decent player ripping up the Belgian second tier. Goes by the name of Verlinden. A lot of potential apparently….. I don’t post so much on here but I do like to read on match days or transfer windows and I’ve noticed you get a lot of stick. But there’s a fairly high percentage of that which is self inflicted by you being so stubborn about admitting you’re wrong and backing down from a previously made opinion. I was of the opinion that Campbell was wanker than wank, he went on loan to Shrewsbury, did ok, came back and got properly match fit and looked very good. I admitted I was wrong about how wank he was, he genuinely surprised me. Ok, he’s dipped closer back to where he was but I’d pick Brown over Campbell everyday of the week. No doubt Campbell has the ability, there’s just something missing, a bit like Powell. Both far more frustrating players than Brown. Over the past two seasons, with our squad, would we have done better or worse without brown and likewise for Campbell? I think you’d probably have to admit we wouldn’t have missed Campbell as much as Brown.

Both Brown and Campbell need a target man to play off.

Brown and Campbell were much better served by playing out wide tonight where they always look better.
With the current make up of the squad we need to stick with a front 3 as it gets the best out of these pair, without a target man they’re neither use nor ornament in a front 2.
Brown got his goal and won the pen but was guilty of a lot of poor touches, passes and breaking down the play. That’s brown though and as long as he gets the goals and assists at a fairly regular rate, you can excuse it.
I just hope Neil finally sees it now and sticks with a front 3 and no more back 3

You do crack me up at times Bayern! Only saw the highlights today but persistence for the goal and the run for the peno made him look decent. If he scores/makes two goals a game he can fall over as many times as he wants for me. I'll save the criticism for games he only fires blanks.

He is what he is. But no way should he play as the central striker. The fact he has done, and also at wingback, shows the up the shite recruitment and his willingness to do what is needed for the team.
I’m sure he would admit that he has his limitations, but, players like him are worth their weight in gold.
I thought he was awful when he arrived , however, through sheer hard work and endeavour he’s shown that he’s a more than useful member of the squad and, if he’s continually picked in his best position coming off the right, he’ll comfortably end up top scorer.
He and Campbell are very different players and both still young. Campbell is clearly more technically gifted but he could take a leaf from browns book regarding attitude and application. Maybe we’d see more of the end product from him which has been routinely lacking since his injury.
The fact they both don’t get the opportunity to play off a “lump” in the middle is also frustrating as I think they’d both do better either side of a rather man. Again, not to have a “ big man” in the squad shows the ineptitude of the club.
Brown is the least of our problems!

I thought both Brown and Campbell played OK, I wouldn't say either were fantastic but did enough.
The bigger concern is Gayle who played centrally, never made a near post run, or run for that matter and looks miles off what we need
If we are to play a 433 then the central striker needs looking at, is it too soon for Tezgel who again looked sharp

Brown is a bit frustrating. He was poor for 85% of the game but the remaining 15% he bagged a goal and won the penalty, and ran his bollox off. If we can have that return from him more consistently, we can forgive the majority of his lack of basic ability.

If we had a big fucker up front with them (a younger Fletch) we'd be laughing We had 12 corners. A half-decent target man and we piss that game 4 or 5 nil! On average one in 30 corners ends in a goal. We did well to score one.

It was quite disturbing to hear AN describe him as a centre forward in his after match interview. If he has any thoughts of playing him as such we should either sack AN or sell JB. He’s a wide striker/emergency RWB. Hopefully it’s a different view on terminology and we don’t get any more experiments with him leading the line. He’s rubbish at it Alex we already knew that before you rocked up.

No player in any team hovering around the bottom third of the table should be telling fans to shush. I’ve never understood why players get involved in that kind of shit, it’s never going to go down well.

Nothing pisses me off more than underperforming players criticising the paying supporter’s. See Joe Allen, Jack Butland, Sam Clucas, Benik Afobe, Lewis Baker. They need to remember they’re being paid outrageous amounts of money much of it derived from the people paying to watch them generally underperform and should not get all conceited about it on the odd occasion that they don’t.

Jacob Brown vs Huddersfield in a hugely important, almost must win game.
2nd in presses. 3rd in progressive runs. 1st in touches in the opposition box. 2nd in featuring in passing sequences that resulted in a goal attempt. 3rd in interceptions. 1st in duels won. 2nd in completed dribbles. 1st in defensive duels won. 1st in successful defensive actions. 2nd in attacking duels won. 2nd in successful attacking actions. 2nd in sprints. Linked up as a passer & receiver as a wide right, a central striker and as an option around the cenre circle. Equal 1st in goals scored. Equal 1st in goal attempts. 1st in xG....by a country mile. 1st in penalties won. 1st in best celebration.
