Understandable that we’ve tried to wrap him in cotton wool given the nature of his injury and the risk of recurrence. But he’s not going to get back to his best playing in fits and starts; must be given a run of games now to find his sharpness and build up momentum.

Should start the remaining three CL games. No disrespect to Griffiths, but there is a reason one of them was being talked about as a £40m player last season and the other wasn't.

He looked like he had something about him when he came on. Lively, purposeful and with a bit of presence.

Put it this way, Boateng and Hummels showed him much more respect than any other Celtic player.

He needs to start European games. When the ball goes up to him it tends to stick. That’s a massive help to the rest of the team as it gives the defence a breather and a chance to reorganise. Griffiths is good but he gets bullied by the better defenders in a way that Dembele doesn’t.

Looked sharp last night.

It's important we get him up to game speed between now and the home leg. He makes a significant difference to our team and how we perform against the top teams.

Sharpest he's looked all season, hopefully that's the start of him getting back to his best, we really need an on form Dembele for the run of games we have before Xmas.

Needs to be starting now. He's vastly superior to Griffiths in every way.

I like Griffiths but the reality is Dembele is a different animal and obviously could be playing in a much, much better league.

Is it possible to praise Dembele without thrashing Griffiths?

Yes. Plenty of recent posts doing exactly that.

Hopefully he is ready now

As others have said, i like Griffiths, but, Dembele is a machine and you could see the defenders backing off him last night straight away

Dembele is a better player than Griffiths. For games like last night we'll stand a better chance of getting something with Dembele in the team.

I still like Griffiths and he'll continue to rip up the Spl and score his share against the lesser European teams.

Looked like he lost a few pun as well, looked much fitter when he came on.

Get him on and give the wee man a break.
