"Brown can score at any time, and he is the best player we have and one of the best players in the ISL. Unfortunately, he got injured this year. He is a quality player, and we don't have to tell him anything. He works very hard, he has good speed, and when he plays, all the players get motivated," Jamil commented during the post-match presser.
