James Forrest has detailed the "massive" impact of Celtic captain Scott Brown after securing a ninth title in a row.
On Monday an SPFL meeting confirmed Neil Lennon 's side as champions for the ninth season in a row.
The Celtic boss hailed Forrest and Brown as modern day Parkhead greats, and the winger has highlighted just how important the skipper has been.
Forrest told the club's website : "We’ve had great managers during the nine-in-a-row run.
"And then with the fans, it’s a case of everyone just wanting to win more and more.
"Then you’ve got Broony in there as well, he’s non-stop every day in training. He’s constant and that rubs off on everyone, which is a great thing to have.
“Anyone you speak to – whether they’re here, have left or have just arrived – will tell you how important Broony is here as a captain.
"When new guys come in, they maybe don’t realise how important he is until they’re in there in the changing room and playing with him.
"Right from the first trophy until now, I still think the same.
"He’s kept his standards so high and that’s full credit to him. That’s helped the club massively.”
