    Not saying he has been *, but even if hes on top form Dembele on form is still better.

    Fair enough, but I think it's fair to say that he's still be more than effective enough to warrant his starting spot in the team in the majority of those games, even if Moussa was injured for some. Up until the last few matches, even if he isn't scoring, Griff's been linking the play brilliantly and creating opportunities. That's something thats gone dark in the last few weeks tho.

    Not taking anything away from him, just facts we are a better team when Dembele is on form and starting.

    This is huge for europe! Will make such a difference having a fit Dembele up top.

    Couple of them could have been either or, but I'll go with that.

    Yeah, I wasn't slating Griff. His contribution has been solid, but Dembele just won the jersey back today.

    Outstanding.

    Best striker we have. By a pretty long way to be honest.

    There's defos a few that's here or there, them being, for me: Pace, dribbling, touch. Others are close as well.

    That's where it's fairly even, so when it comes to "All round play" you have Moussa who is tall, strong, fairly fast, decent touch, can finish, can head, can hold it up, is strong, can hit a free kick/pens and has good movement.

    No brainer for me who is the better 'all round player', but, tbh, that literally comes down to Moussa's physique, as well as talent. He has a natural advantage.

    From the two replies, you boys have Griff as a better all-round player, a better all-round player than a perceived 30-40 million quid player.. Something, for the record, I haven't ever really properly bought. I stand by the fact I think he will end up at a Everton, Southampton rather than the Real Madrid, that Chelsea many on this forum said he would.

    I'd probably put Griffiths ahead on finishing, but Demebele ahead on one on ones and first touch.

    The rest, I agree with Mr.Slippyfist.

    The two guys are completely different players in their own right.

    Griffiths is a predator who is capable of many things.

    Dembele is more of a complete forward.
