Celtic, KV Oostende and others (allegedly) after him!

Re: Ciaron Brown in demand this summer!
I can see exactly why big clubs might be interested in him. There was a moment when we played at Swansea where Brown had the ball in the left back position and, with close passing options available to him, decided to whack the ball 60 yards upfield, miles from anyone in a Cardiff shirt.Comment

Re: Ciaron Brown in demand this summer!
Flint and Morrison aren't getting any younger and both have had long spells out injured this season
He's a decent back up to the first choice centre halves
We certainly won't be buying a centre half this summer so unless a silly offer is made for him (which there won't be - especially if it's Scotland) I see no reason to sell him
He's not great and he does have tendancy for 60 yard balls to the corner flag whilst Moore looks on incredulously from the half way line but I don't imagine he's on huge wages
I'd stick with him if we canComment

Re: Ciaron Brown in demand this summer!
I was expecting more from the reports of his performances in Scotland , he may need a longer run at Championship level to further develop. I'd be shocked if Celtic were interested.Comment

Re: Ciaron Brown in demand this summer!
I don't see it myself.
If he's on a lowish wage he is ideal as a back up especially if MM is sticking with the 3 at the back.Comment

Re: Ciaron Brown in demand this summer!
He is laughably bad on the ball. Turns like a cruise liner as well. He's not completely awful but if we can get some money for him I wouldn't be upset.Comment

He looks like the "Evil" caricature in a PANTO.Comment

Re: Ciaron Brown in demand this summer!
Laughably bad on the ball? He’s played well in a top half Championship team. Ok, so he’s not Pele, but his distribution has improved greatly. Are we now at a stage where we just slate every player who doesn’t empty our sacks with their first touch of the football?Originally posted by Pedro de la Rosa View PostComment

Re: Ciaron Brown in demand this summer!
How often do you we, as Cardiff City fans, "empty our sacks" over a player's first touch of the football?Originally posted by Lord Dargavel View Post
We have become conditioned to seeing poor control. So when a player is singled out about it, you can be sure it's merited.Comment

Re: Ciaron Brown in demand this summer!
To be fair Eric, the whole team played like that in the second half of the Swansea match. I prefer to remember a lovely ball judged to perfection over the Birmingham right back's head to create a chance for Harry Wilson in our last away match. Brown continues to be pulled up for his passing in a squad that is very poor at passing the ball for the level they compete a. He's not the answer to to our need for a centreback who can play out from the back, but I don't see he's any worse than the three who are considered to be first choices - Brown has struggled in one or two of his games, but, overall, I don't think he's done badly at all and it was noticeable to me that he was a lot more prepared to get into the opposition's penalty area when playing at wing back than he had been when he first got into the team.Originally posted by Eric the Half a Bee View PostComment

Re: Ciaron Brown in demand this summer!
Sounds like he is adapting to life back in Cardiff Citys championship side well ...it can, occassionally ,take a player a while to grasp our complex tactics...Originally posted by Eric the Half a Bee View PostComment

Re: Ciaron Brown in demand this summer!
For me we need to keep him. A left sided player who gives the back 3 balance when he plays. He will only get better the more he plays.
Brown , Flint, Nelson , Morrison , pack as cover ?
3 from those Seems decent to me.Comment

Re: Ciaron Brown in demand this summer!
With his contract up in the summer I'm sure he's after more than the club just triggering his year extension, his agent is doing his job!Comment
