    The most annoying thing about him being offside is that he has the pace to give most defenders an extra half yard. He doesn't need to be right on the line.

    He does seem to get over excited and jump the gun when running behind.

    Still remember after the sheep game away when Ronny ignored him in the celebrations, now there best mates think when he drove himself to a development game in Newcastle it changed Ronny's mind about him

    Like a few, I was uncertain about him at first, but he's growing on me. :50:

    These games against Dundee Utd have been difficult for Griffiths. Frustrating to play against a team who sit behind the ball and play against two physical defenders. Made it difficult to play into his feet and to his strengths, instead he was forced to compete in an aerial battle more often than he would like. However he was disciplined and showed persistence in every game(the penalty miss and subsequent response with a fine header, one such example)Got his reward for it last night with a well taken goal.

    Highly commendable approach from Griffiths and worthy of his starting place.

    Just needs to work on his first touch and actually being onside more than twice a game.

    Decent enough striker to have on the bench as a squad player for next season far better than Stokes, however if he's the man to lead us into the CL Group Stages and play half decent enough against that sort of opposition then no, we need better, much better.

    Need to sign a new striker in the Summer to be the main focal point. Also the amount of times he gets caught out offside is shocking.

    Could he possibly get 20 goals in all competitions?
