    Griffiths for tonight and hopefully if we can get a comfortable lead then Ciftci for holding it up in the 2nd leg, as that would be Griffiths' 3rd game in 6 days.

    Griffiths for me gotta go with form as we need goals here, maybe if we take a lead then Cifti in the away game as holding the ball up and releaving pressure on defence then Cifti is better at that.

    Aye, but guess what wins you games.

    In one sense, I'd rather have Griffiths available on the bench to bring on if things aren't going well, than Ciftci. However, Griffiths' form has earned him his place. I think it's too big a risk to not play a guy who has been scoring for fun.

    Griffits all day for me. Ciftci isn't yet up to speed with the rest of the team, and Griffiths is the more clinical striker. Not to mention he deserves it.

    Has to be Griffiths, need the goals to take over there next week. Also Cifti is swinging at everything waiting on his first goal. If he does start Cifti, hopefully he'll score early and settle into it.

    Couldn't give a * who starts as long as we win.

    i voted for griffiths but now i think we should start ciftci, because as you said Griffiths would offer more coming off the bench as he also has more energy than ciftci. what we need at the start of the game is good hold up play and ciftci offers that more than griffiths does
