    Alright then...

    Nearly everyone at the club, both past and present, have used the club as a stepping stone if they're good enough. It's even our transfer policy.

    There are plenty of clubs that are bigger than Celtic. He may go on and discover things aren't as green as he first thought a la Tierney or he may go on to better things a la VVD.

    He's going through his first real rough patch in his Celtic career yet we're to give him pelters for it. Lennon decides who should start and who shouldn't. I'm in agreement that Griffiths deserves a start ahead of him but to say he consistently misses sitters is just his current form. He also scores in big games but let's just look at the short term, shall we?

    He isn't the only one in a bad run of form but suddenly Edouard should be training with the reserves? * me. No one at the club comes near to an on form Edouard.

    Very well put and summarised Hammy89, I agree, I might have been a bit emotional in my original post for sure.

    He’s looked a lot better so far with a striker up with him. Freed him up a bit

    Far better with a partner has more freedom to move around and link up the play and opposition defences have another striker to worry about, been involved in near enough all our good play first half.

    His mentality has changed from everything he hits goes in ,to everything he hits gets saved or blocked on the line , thats wen that split second of overthink before taking the shot is the difference now ,he needs to clear his head and it will come back again .

    Stuck in a rut right now, seems to just go through the motions, never releases the ball quick enough. Either pass or shoot man, he just tries to run through teams every time and loses it, he’s seriously frustrating to watch.

    Still not performing the way we know he can but I think he actually played better tonight with someone beside him. Still not putting his laces though the ball when he has the chance.

    I think that he needed the competition with Griff to get goals. He looked annoyed a couple of times and I thought he was actually trying to score tonight. It will hack him off if Griff is coming back in from a long time out and actually getting goals when he's the superior player. I'm just not sure how superior :56:I still fancy Griff to score before he does. You can score all the fancy penalties you like but the down to earth bread and butter stuff is where it's at in our league. Incidentally I enjoyed that penalty as much as anyone. Doesn't detract from the fact I just don't like him.

    Brilliant today, first half he had 3 or so good strong dribbles only to run out of space. Second half took to the game so much more. The link up with a partner is night and day for him, comapred to being a lone striker.

    Manger has to * notice this once and for all now.

    Different class today no surprise he's getting back to his usual when we play a system that suits him, and with a striker he likes playing with. Like everyone else this season he's suffered because of the manager and his pish tactics.

    Hopefully puts to bed the idea he's chucked it as players that don't give a * don't suddenly turn it on at Hamilton away during a storm.

    Like I said at half time, knocking the door of his best form. Easily his best performance of the season since flag day, play him with Griff and we're in wae a shout here!
