Good post. I think the guy got upset that someone dared to point out a weakness in Griff's game. |

He's nowhere near as good as Viduka so he can get over his face tripping antics sharpish. He's going to be an important player away from home, needs to screw the nut |

There was a stupid article in the Daily Mail claiming that he might get an England call up once he has been UK resident for five years in 2017. This is because Allardyce and co have basically given up on English clubs producing English players of any quality at all. That isn't how it works, Daily Mail! (and he has been capped at every level of the French youth setup already anyway, so I can't imagine he wouldn't be called up by France if he were to look remotely good enough for England in the future) Edited by drks, 30 Aug 2016, 05:02 AM.

He wouldn't get an England call-up while he plays in Scotland anyway. Gary Hooper didn't get one when he was scoring 30+ a season, Fraser Forster only got a couple becuase Joe Hart played in the EPL and Alan Thompson got all of 45 minutes despite being comfortably the best English left-sided midfielder of his day. The French probably don't pay much attention to Scotland either (you'd think Agathe might have been called up to a squad at least) but I doubt they'd be as parochial about our league as the English. |

The biggest miss England had was Sutton. Sutton was excellent in CL and EL for us and was a far better player than Heskey. What a shame for them. |

My take on it, If hes the penalty taker he should've taken the penalty on Saturday. If Sinclair wasn't giving him the ball knowing Dembele is the penalty taker then someone with more authority in the team (Brown, Toure etc) should be telling Sinclair to give him the ball. |

i agree. if dembele was pissed off i would suggest it is because he is desperate to impress and lost an chance too. if anything he is worrying too much |

Absolutely. Sinclair strikes me as a guy trying to build up his own playing confidence after a difficult few years. By the nature of our business we're going to have guys in this position, and taking/scoring a penalty is an easy wee confidence booster for these guys. I know it's not a huge deal, but there really shouldn't be any discussion over who takes penalties. This should all be sorted before the first whistle. |

i think sinclair was told he was on penalties as he started and dembele didn't and when we got one never thought that dembele is on them now he is on |

I'm pretty certain the manager will have made the position abundantly clear after Saturday. Looks to me like Dembele is No 1 designated taker , with Sinclair next. |

wasn't at the game but did they actually argue over the ball or did dembele just accept it in a huff? |

Yep. Guessing that Sinclair was the designated penalty taker while Dembele was on the bench. Once he came on it probably wasn't clear who would be first in line at that stage or at least not clear to Sinclair. |

They didn't do handbags but Dembele had a chat with Sinclair, but got nowhere. He then approached Brown who literally waved him away. It was after that that he took the huff. This is the kind of distraction that players can well do without in a game. Sort it properly before we go on the pitch. And have a captain prepared to to apply the manager's instructions. |

Dembele just stood there with his hands on his hips & didn't move an inch as Sinclair took/scored the penalty. He should've been on his toes, ready to slot the rebound if Sinclair missed. Not a great attitude, but I can see his issue - even so, he needs to focus better. |

no issue at all with him being a grumpy effer. larsson, sutton and many others were too and they turned out ok |

I suspect it was perfectly clear to Sinclair.

I'd be interested to see you try with Griff. He's already stated a few times it's the weakest part of his game.
