Yeah, 4-4-2 is a shape that doesn't work most of the time anymore. We seem to have a lot of fans who think it's the only way football should be played and that it's wrong to not have two up front. Which is especially daft because regardless of how the formation looks on paper, we already play 3 up front, not 1. Sinclair especially plays more as a striker than a traditional winger, sort of an inside forward I suppose. Griffiths can play wide but should only do so if Sinclair, Roberts, Forrest and maybe even Christie are all injured. Dembélé, meanwhile, has all the potential in the world. We could have two players with 30+ goals this season! Edited by drks, 11 Sep 2016, 04:42 PM.

To be fair those three goals showed talent that I didn't quite realise he had - the second in particular; great control, huge confidence in knowing what he was doing and an absolute peach of a finish. Hugely, hugely impressive - well done young man for taking your chance in the team with aplomb |

Two up front still works fine, contrary to your point we have seen some great examples of that over the last few years, winning Spanish, English and Italian titles. I believe flexibility is what we should aspire to, as time goes on and better players arrive I think we'll get that from Brendan. |

Yeah. It is good that we have the choice.Last season, gets injured and we are effed! We had to rely on him a lot for goals and, to be fair, he delivered but it is a lot of pressure to put on one player. I think, had he not been injured, he'd have been on at some point yesterday but I am delighted with the way the game panned out and that, this season, we seem to have goals all over the team. As said already, both will get plenty game time either together, separately or one or the other coming on. Also, as we've seen BR is not averse to changing from 4-2-3-1 to 4-3-3 or 4-4-2 or any other formation you care to mention in game if he thinks it will benefit us. HAIL HAIL |

If Celtic good enough for Henke for 7 years it will be ideal base for Moussa to become a superstar. |

Immediate impact, judging by KDS standards for a striker, seem to be that he comes in right away and scores a goal on his debut and is a real handful from the off. It took him a few weeks to get up to speed, I would imagine partly due to fitness as I don't think he'd have been at the same stage of pre-season as his team mates, the other due to him being a young player in a new country taking time to settle. It was bound to happen. Based on allowing for the above I was happy enough with him giving the glimpses of promise he was showing in games and thought he would come good, we need to stop writing players off so early is all I'm saying, particularly given we've now got a manager who has shown he knows better than us. |

We could never play like Leicester though, the opposition in Scotland never set up to allow that. |

Haven't got a link, but they used the Moussa loose about this hoose line as one of their headlines. I read it in my mum's house, not sure if it is available online. |

It is good that we have the choice.
