Brown reveals key areas that Celtic worked on in Dubai

Celtic captain Scott Brown has been left delighted with the impact of the club’s mid-season training camp in Dubai, as reported on the official club website. 

The Hoops jetted out to the Middle East to rest, recover and rejuvenate themselves ahead of the second half of the season.

Neil Lennon and the coaching staff had a good chance to work on some things during the trip and Brown has revealed some important tweaks. He said:

The manager and the backroom staff worked us hard, but it was enjoyable as well. We use that to recharge the batteries and get ourselves ready and raring to go again.

It was good to get over there, to have more time on the training pitch, to work on new training methods, our positioning, shape, pressing and other tactical elements. 

By the time Partick Thistle comes this weekend, we’ll be fully recovered and ready to go again.

The Hoops are still competing for three trophies at this stage of the campaign. The Scottish Cup, Scottish Premiership and UEFA Europa League are all up for grabs for Lennon’s side.

We feel that the trip to Dubai could help the players refocus and as Brown rightly stated, it was a chance for them to recharge themselves.

We’re expecting a Celtic victory this weekend against Partick Thistle to get the second half of the season off to the best possible start.
