I think Brown will feature at the World Cup. He generally turns up for the biggest games, is rock-steady in the backfield and has a decent kicking game. I know Eddie wants pace across the back 3 but if you think of him as an alternative to Nowell, I can definitely see a spot for him. Be good to see ...
