Super John McGinn v Scott Brown.

[hibbyfraelibby]

Broonie is the master, McGinn is the Grasshoper. Yesterday the next generation proved he has what it takes to replace Brown in the Scotland set up. Expect a bid from Celtic soon as they do their succession planning.

I think you undermine yourself there. You have to be a good player to create more time on the ball for yourself by making yourself in the position to look up and look for your next pass

It's a lot easier to find space for yourself when the other team are paggered and cant get anywhere near the ball.

Just a little bias. If Brown gets found out at a decent level McGinn would get killed.

Such as International level against a country who have qualified for the WC?

I have no doubt that Celtic view McGinn as the long term replacement for Scott Brown.

The battle between the two of them yesterday was cracking to watch, they both played very well with Brown just shading it IMO.

It reminded me of Brown v Lennon almost. Really good battle to watch. No doubt Brown is still a cut above but I thought McGinn gave a good account of himself.

This was my thoughts too, very much like Brown v Lennon in a match at Easter Road (can't quite remember which one though). The master v the apprentice.

[Ringothedog]

according to the fandan that is Brendan Rogers it was a no contest and Broony won it easily.

[RamYer1902]

Rodgers talking *****. All he wants to do is decrease McGinn's value cause he'll be all over him soon.

what hes saying is brown walks about like pirlo against hamilton partick etc,then when he plays for scotland hes murder and in europe for celtic against even say a polish or cypriot side he'l barely touch the ball and certainly never controls a game like our pundits would have you believe.

Brown is the past SJM is the future

MOTM in his first 2 Scotland starts against Denmark and Holland.

I thought Brown edged it yesterday but he had far better players around him and more space.

McGinn is every bit as good as Brown was at 22/23 and possibly better.

MOTM in 2 friendlies. Its laughable to suggest Brown would get found out and McGinn wouldn't. Come on guys, be real here.

Is one allowed to be honest on here ?!?

McGinn was great...........thought Brown was even better though. He's still a terrific player.

If you check the replay on hibs tv McGinn wins that duel hands down. Brown fowls his way through the game

Has anyone said that?

When SJM has stepped up a level he’s coped easily. Maybe his 2 goals at Parkhead were another good example of that?

Both players can easily cope at a better level than SPL.

I didn't say that mate. It was said if Brown was found out then how would McGinn cope at that level. So far, so good at that level. Anything but "killed"

Big difference between Holland in a friendly and Barcelona in a Champions league game.

Currently Brown is more experienced, better player than McGinn. Odious twat though, should get booed off the park every time he comes to Easter Road.

True.

Hibs, including McGinn, were expending huge amounts of energy from the first min, closing down an excellent Celtic team. Brown spent the first 60 mins strolling around in front of his back 4. The fact McGinn STILL managed to compete effectively with Brown says it all... and why Rogers is slavering and will be on the phone to Hibs in January.

For me, yesterday confirmed that SJM is more than capable to replacing Brown and that Celtic simply cannot afford for SJM to go to the Rangers.

Exactly how I saw it as well.

I thought super john had a great game. Lots of ability, hard work and endeavour. Scott brown only sprinted twice in the entire 90. Once to prevent a sure goal for Stokes and once in the last couple of minutes to set up a great chance for Sinclair. Brown was superb and so was McGinn. Great to watch and if you had watched them at the end they had huge respect for each other. Rogers is a classless fanny.

Think Rodgers is feeling the pressure at last. Had a go at a reporter today, when asked about Leigh not playing

[Finn2015]

Thought McGinn showed up well tbh. Don’t know what Rodgers was watching

[Tollhouse Hibee]

I thought tactically Lenny got it spot on, using John McGinn to man mark Brown. he stuck to his task really well, and it was no surprise how deep brown had to drop to get the ball, and it also showed that once McGinn went into attack mode, thats where it left Brown free to cause chaos.

It was also very interesting the tactic to use Boyle to keep Tierney out the game, and Barker on Lustig. Barker tho suffered severely from not being able to get forward.

[Phil MaGlass]

Love Broonie. Great player. McGinn future Scotland captain was all over him. Wis a joy tae watch. If we thought we were goin tae keep hold of him in January we need tae think again. He will be gone tae england firra big wad o cash.
