Few people on earth can shithouse like Scott Brown
Scott Brown is the greatest shithouse in the world. The Celtic captain may not have the technical attributes or medals that fellow shithouse Sergio Ramos has, but in raw terms he is the best shithouse around.
His style of play and on-field demeanour is such that he provokes opponents into lashing out at him purely for standing next to them.
He has an innate ability to get in the heads of his opponents and live there, pulling the strings and forcing them to make incredibly stupid decisions whenever he wishes.
The Old Firm derby is probably the best arena for the Scot to showcase these shithousing abilities and he rarely disappoints. On Sunday afternoon, it was no different.
Brown played his usual game at Celtic Park; in no way exceptional but keeping things ticking along nicely, and annoying all the right people.
Half an hour into the match and with Celtic 1-0 up, he saw an opportunity to do exactly that, and did so by tripping up Rangers mild-mannered forward Alfredo Morelos.
Morelos, who had four red cards in the league prior to the match, fell for it hook, line and sinker, and reacted by slinging an elbow towards Brown's head.
Morelos was red carded and Brown was left there, grinning.
He continued to grin all throughout, as the Colombian striker protested his fate, and furiously shouted at everyone around him. It was the sort of shithousery that make people both love and hate Brown, and it's fair to say that Celtic fans were absolutely lapping it all up.
They were lapping it up even more when Brown stepped in front of the cameras after the game, and was asked what had happened when Rangers' Andy Halliday came up and approached him at the end of the game.
"He came up to congratulate me," said Brown, leaving Bhoys supporters in bits.

For the record, Halliday was sent off for furiously approaching Brown, who just stood back and - as he does - laughed.
