Brown to miss Bhoys clash

Wes Brown seems certain to miss Manchester United's Champions League clash at Celtic after missing training on Tuesday morning because of an ankle injury.

The England international has missed the last two games with the problem and is unlikely to be risked in Glasgow.

James Chester could come in to replace Brown while the only other absentees are long-term injury victims Paul Scholes and Owen Hargreaves.

Meanwhile, veteran winger Ryan Giggs is determined to improve on the last visit to Celtic Park when United slumped to a 1-0 defeat despite dominating the match.

The former Wales international said: "We played really well in the first half, but we just didn't put our chances away.

"If you do that in Europe it doesn't matter who you're playing against, you're going to get punished. We played well, but ultimately we didn't put our chances away - so we didn't deserve to win.

"The atmosphere is white-hot at Celtic Park and there's always tackles flying in.

"It's like any fired-up Premier League game. It's hard to settle yourself down and remind yourself that you're in a European match. But that's where the experience of the older players, myself included, and the manager comes in."
