    Well going by today's performance, Stokes is no more likely to get a goal. In no way was Griffiths worse than Stokes.

    Stokes made a * of 90% of attacks when he had the ball. Could barely beat the first man at corners, * up simple 5/10 yard passes, missed an absolute sitter etc.

    Aye, Griffiths missed a penalty but he scored a cracking header. He was much better than Stokes.

    Will probably need him for the two cup games but they should be his last

    I genuinely couldn't even tell you the last time Stokes scored a goal, let alone in a big match where he's perpetually * except for 2 good assists for Hooper in the Scottish Cup final 2013.

    Griffiths won us a penalty and scored the goal which kept us in the treble hunt. Stokes, on the other hand, gave away a penalty which nearly lost us the game and * up numerous counter attacks, good moves and corners with his lack of pace, imagination and * final ball.

    How in the name of * can you say he was better than Griffiths today?!?

    It is also a blatant lie to say you "always get a shift" out of him - he's one of the laziest players we've had in recent times and i'm including Guidetti and Samaras in that. He's also constantly offside - that's when he bothers to get into a decent position at all.

    Hopefully not. Commons might be back and, based on today's performance, Forrest is ahead of Stokes in the pecking order.

    In all honesty, i'd play Henderson before him. It would be good experience for him to play in relatively big games. We, and Stokes, have nothing to gain by playing him in the cups

    Sean Daeler is nowhere to be found. You can only defend Stokes for so long.

    Wasn't effective again today. A * of a bounce of the ball when he hit the post though.

    Stokes is dross now. Hard to believe it's the same goal machine we signed years ago.

    If he was ENGLISH people would hate him.

    He's Irish and enough people hate him so you can knock that on the head straight away. Nice try but.
