    Gorgeous header, but let's cut the Larsson comparison - it's just unfair to mention any Celtic striker in the same breath.

    The guy is obsessed by goals. You need a bit of selfishness as a striker - and Leigh has it. He's full of confidence at the minute and, as Strachan says, he carries a presence into games now.

    think he is channeling Larsson with some of his finishing this season

    Nobody is comparing him to the king.

    You can't deny that his hang time has a touch of the king about it though.

    Not comparing him to the king you understand but how much does he look like the king?

    Not comparing though.

    Tierney with a Thompson like ball and Griffiths with a Larsson like finish.

    Talking * aside, I'm very excited about the future and to what Griffiths can achieve here.

    The one thing I think we can all be certain on (hopefully) is that he knows that he has got here and I don't think a little flutter of cash from down south will even make him bat an eyelid unlike many before him.

    Thing that is probably most scary about him(for the opposition) is that he can score from anywhere.

    Not like Hooper, who the majority of goals came in the box. When Griffiths gets the ball, even 30 yards out, you can imagine him smashing it in.

    Aye. You get the feeling that he knows he has done the whole journeyman * already and he is now ready to stay put and become a legend.

    He needs to improve his finishing when it comes to easy chances he is still quite wasteful and scores the hard chances instead, need him to be burying the easy tap in also for matches where we wont create so many chances. Aside from that. Also "best if not better than henrik" someone posted dont talk * will never be anywhere near that level.
