    Stokes has really surprised me this season. Last year, I thought he was good but I could understand Lenny dropping him in the "big" games because I didn't think he had the drive or the dig to compete on both ends. Three of the last four games, however, he has been a real inspiration and almost single-handedly dragging us something from the Killie game. The effort he's put in over these games has been unreal. Hope he can keep it up. With Hooper getting back to full health it can only bode well for the team.

    Stokes is a goal machine. This guy more than anybody has pulled things back around in our favour this season. All accolades to Stokes.

    I'm a massive fan of Stokes, he has so much more in his locker than any striker in the league.

    Stokes is more responsible than anyone else for pulling us up off the canvas.

    Agreed with the above, he is our most important player by far.

    My heart was in my mouth when they said he had pulled his hamstring in the second half.

    Stokes gets better all the time. I'm sure last year we would have all agreed that he was second to hOOper. This season it is without a doubt the other way round.

    As for Jellylegs. He is quality. Anyone that says otherwise is kidding themselves on.

    Aye your probably right there. The last hun game of last season is a good example of it, he was only on about 20 minutes or something but was probably the best player on the park in that game, could have won 2 penalties and was ripping them apart.

    28 goals and 24 assists in 53 games :eek1: probably the best record since Larsson?

    Kept Lennon in a job.

    I just hope Lennon repays Stokes' effort and determination by handing him his well deserved Old Firm start.

    Hail, Hail Stokesy inspirational mate!:celt_2:

    Definitely mate. Jelavic is a fantastic player. Credit where it's due.

    I wouldn't be surprised. Can't wait to see him score against Der Hun.

    thought last season he was a bit hot and cold. but these last few weeks, when things have been tougher than usual, he has really stepped up and showed what he can do. proving that he deserves to start every game especially the big ones. hope he keeps it up.

    Happy for him. Loads of people were writing him off when he signed for us.
    Best finisher at the club.
