    Said it a million times. Outwith scoring goals he offers the square root of * all. Imagine going in to a CL game expecting him to hold the ball up & bring others into play ?

    Great option for back up striker, shouldn't really be near the first team though..

    Is it his fault the team set up deep and isolated a poacher up front? Is it his fault the 3 behind him were absolute *?

    Was isolated for most of the match today, this pishy formation is a riot especially with that useless * GMS as one of the apparent front 3 :rolleyes:

    He offers a huge goal threat even on an "off day" and having Brown and Johansen supplying him .

    Hit the post , hit the bar .

    Anyone thinking Leigh Griffiths is the problem at Celtic needs to get their priorities in order. He's not perfect, but he is a reliable player in a poor team.

    He got absolutely no support today .
    You have to feel for the guy as he plays away up front but where was the midfield support today .. The Huns defence have never had an easier game .

    He looks better when Rogic and McGregor are supplying him he looked far more lively in Extra-time with those 2 on the pitch

    Hi decision making was * poor (along with several others today) and he was too greedy on a couple of occasions - shooting from miles out.
    But - our formation was mainly to blame for his performance.
    We sat far too deep and left him isolated as *.
    Roberts and GMS were used to double up and try and nullify the threat of Wallace/
    Tavernier.
    We set out to stop them, to counter. This is criminal and it's the same way we played against * Hearts.
    We didn't press the ball high up the pitch. Our management shat themselves and we lost.

    Simple.

    Because they hold the ball and try and thread it through, not just long balls.

    wasn't his fault today. Just no support or service, what can he possibly do?

    The few times he did get the ball, his touch was awful. The moment that summed up his game was when he broke forward down the left with only McGregor in support, near the end of the game.

    He ran with the ball and his second touch was * dreadful with the ball going about 10 yards away from him and forced him to rush his cross. He just can't control the ball well enough.

    Not to mention him being a greedy *.
