Being a fan of Griffiths, I'd say Dembele needs to do a little more when he gets his chance. Fair enough it's limited time but his first touch is wanting a little. Had he a better touch, the guy would be banging them in. Would like to see Griffiths staying on with Dembele. Still, can't argue with results like todays.
I think we needed to link the 'midfield' with the front better and that's why Dembele came on. I love Griff but he can't hold the play up that well. In saying that. I thought Dembele for a big guy should have won more headers, he got outmuscled a bit, though I still thought he gave us something we'd been lacking - ie someone to hold the ball up. I agree I'd still like to see both on the field.

A striker pissed off because he's been deprived a goal scoring opportunity? Good.
Yep and as the nominated taker, he should have hit it.
Correct :thumbsup:
It's not under 11's

Dembele is a big boy and should have taken the ball off sinclair, he didnt and thats that. Why would the captain step in, its not a playground. It would have been a brass can if he did.

''Gee him the baw or hes no playing''

He scored it, end of.

That's something the captain does do though. It would have been embarrassing if Dembele tried to take the ball off him.
We've actually had to watch that a few times in recent years.

Exactly. These are football players we're talking about. They're not beyond acting petulant.

I see what you're saying, but it was his reaction that was poor. He should be running towards the goal as soon as Sinclair hit it in case of a rebound but stood there arms at his side. He actually looked gutted that it went in.

What I do agree on though is that he should have taken it and Sinclair shouldn't have waved him aside like that if he's designated hitter.

Just watched the goals back, his reaction (and failure to consider a rebound) shows a lack of commitment/selfishness.

Grow up Moussa, it ain't all about you. :thumbsup:

I want to see him play more. Not getting enough game time at the moment.

Hopefully he goes 3-5-2 in some easier fixtures

How do we know that Sinclair isn't the nominated penalty taker and not Dembele? Has it been brought up since the Astana game?

Sinclair didn't hit the one Dembele took against Motherwell. He won that one too.

when deila was in charge it looked as though no one wanted to take one ..now it looks like we have at least 3....dembele attitude towards the penalty goal celebration reeks of petulance and immaturity...although you could then aim arrogance and immaturity towards Sinclair for openly undermining Dembele and to a certain extent the manager himself, by insisting he ,himself , takes the penalty

Negative towards two players at the same time. Only Padre Pio could manage that. ;)

His reactions later are better than at the time of the match - maybe he didn't want to upset the apple cart but I hope he puts Sinclair in his place the next time there is a penalty or if he's lost that slot at least celebrate

Bollocks. No petulance at the final whistle and he spent some time celebrating with the fans.

Sinclair is the one who was out of order.
