    That's right ignore the rest of the post were your ridiculous points are put in their place. That's the only debatable thing I said, I believe hooper to be faster there's much more times I can think of in my head of him running away from players rather than Grittiths.

    Can you remember the type of player was? He was sharp and quick if you debate otherwise then I don't think you've watched many of his Celtic games.

    Hooper was quick over ten yards or so but I think Griffiths is quicker overall.

    I haven't seen Griffiths beat anyone for pace, he's really sharp aye but quick an pacey I just don't see it. Hooper left players for dead with this pace sometimes.

    Mate, both scored goals for us, important goals.

    Griffiths is still scoring them, enjoy it.

    That's already been posted but it's 50 competitive starts, not games.

    Still very impressive from Griffiths but not as good as it would first appear.

    Aww mate I am don't get me wrong, was just replying to something I probably should have quoted.

    I'm loving Griffiths form, I love the work he's done to get himself here and I love the potential he's got to add what he's missing to his game, i just value the qualities in which he lacks as integral to our team so when he's being slightly overrated I think it's worth pointing this out :50:

    Celtic fans who dont like Griff dont know anything about football. It is an idiotic point of view to take. There is no footballing reason to not rate him. If we didnt have him we would probably finish second. Simple as that.

    There is not one single person who doesn't rate him, why can't some people understand that you can like a player but see his weaknesses?

    Well he is our best player and some other players get a far easier ride than him. He is the last person in our squad that should be put under the microscope.

    He's easily become our most overrated player in the last few years. The way people are * him you'd think we've got a £20million player on our hands.

    He isn't our best player. Right now might be our most important but that's because the club made an * of it and never signed another striker.

    Been banging them in for us but he dose need to work on other aspects of his game it is worth remembering that fatty Boyd is SPL all time scorer so it is possible to bang them in the lengue and still be a fairly * player

    He's scored at every level for us that he has played at.
