If there is one thing that can be said about Scott Brown since taking the Fleetwood Town job is that he is certainly making a huge impression at the club.
On the park, he helped take the League One club to the fifth round of the FA Cup for the first time in their history by defeating Sheffield Wednesday.
He has also dragged them from relegation candidates to mid-table safety and is starting to garner a growing reputation down south very early into his managerial career.
We have been given an insight into how Brown has managed these accomplishments as Fleetwood’s on-loan Everton youngster Lewis Warrington details just how influential the former Celtic midfielder has been on his career this season.
Speaking to Fleetwood Town’s official website, Warrington said, “I’ve enjoyed the games more. In League Two the ball is in the air more and it was going over my head a little bit too much.
“Here we try and get it down and play, and we do that against the big teams as well. I’ve loved it, it has probably been the perfect loan up to now.
“I’ve learned loads off the gaffer and his staff and have got loads better as a player in a positional sense… It’s been really successful.
“I’ve learned loads, how keeping it simple is sometimes best, playing quick and keeping it one-two touch then finding new spaces to get onto the ball, and also putting more tackles in and reading the game well and landing on second balls. My whole game has improved.”
What next for Scott Brown’s managerial journey?
It’s still very early in Brown’s managerial career but if he does continue the way he is going, who knows where he could end up?
It would be beneficial for him to continue his development at Fleetwood out of the glare of the public eye so as to allow him to make his mistakes without the ensuing publicity being at a bigger club would bring.
It is thought that he could return to Celtic Park one day as the manager of this great club and if he continues to develop and grow at the rate he is doing at the moment, it would be difficult to bet against that.
