    That would be poetic.

    I'd take a single goal in a 1 nil win right now right enough!

    He's the goalscorer, he's expected to score goals.

    We don't "depend" on one player, hence why all of our goals have not come from Griffiths, and unless Griffiths has assisted himself for all of his goals scored, one would think it logical to understand Griffiths relies on others........

    That we weren't dependant on a single player today? That loads of players got pass marks? That that was a barnstormer of a game against a team bang in form?

    I dunno mate, what could you say?

    Imagine saying we depend on one player.

    what a disservice to Keiran Tierney.

    og, give it a * rest.

    Dunno I could probably say something that would please you and the rest of the muckers but I'm just being honest. Griffs goals again were the difference. So they were. I dont know what else to say. Do you not want to be reminded of this or what?

    We are dependant on Leigh to score goals. Ideally I'd want somebody else capable of hitting 20 odd a season as well.

    As it is though, he's doing the business, well done to him.

    Or you could say the big difference was Kieran Tierney's ability to get forward and composure in the final ball.

    Yeah definitely. How many goals does our second top scorer have? 9 or something like that?

    Not ideal.

    The gulf is huge. Really need someone who can hit 15-20.

    Well, Commons can but he refuses to play him behind the striker.

    We need another one regular, plays week in, week out who is a massive goal threat.

    Rogic and Bitton's on 8 each, then I think it's GMS on 6/7, can't mind.

    To be fair, Commons doesn't exactly deserve to be in there ahead of Rogic or even Johansen.

    Roberts looks like a great goal threat.

    I suppose I could and I love wee Tierney and I lobbied for him to start before it was popular. I am not taking anything away from anyone else i am just saying that to put the ball in the net we are very dependent on Griff. This is true I dont understand the resistance to this point of view?

    How would we know? He's not played there. All on top form, who would you have there?

    Wonder when the last time if ever before our top scorer had scored over 4x as many goals as the 2nd top scorer.

    It's hard to tell.

    I think Rogic has more to his game than Commons in terms of his touch and going past a player. Plus he's scored a few goals himself. Commons is on the downward spiral.
