sinclair has the potential to become our best player but he has only played approx 120 minutes. Played at a higher level does not mean your automatically the best player. Coming months yes he maybe but not yet. To date Griffiths is our best player |

I am one of Leigh's biggest fans but he isn't very effective when out wide. He is absolutely wasted out wide. |

And Griffiths is a racist. What either has to do with current form? Nothing, both sentences are irrelevant pish. |

Mines isn't, yours certainly is. Forrest has been average at best for years and doesn't deserve a place ahead of a guy that hit 40 goals last season, that isn't irrelevant. |

Roberts isn't ours and Sinclair might turn out to better, we'll see. |

I think Griffiths - for all his goals - negatively affects the overall team and game plan. I wouldn't be surprised to see him playing less games and sold in January or next summer. |

When we're at full tilt I don't think either Griffiths or Forrest will start. |

Agree. With Griffiths I think that'll be the case as he doesn't fit BR's vision. As for Forrest, I think it's a case of being 3rd choice behind Sinclair and Roberts in any wing position. |

Since when did Rodgers play with wingers? He plays more with inside forwards and therfore I see no reason why Griffiths can't do something similar to Suarez in terms of his position. |

Aye because playing Griffiths out wide is sound and ignoring Forrest's current form by using previous form is a great indicator of his future form. TF Brendan knows what he's doing, or seems to be. |

'Out wide'? Did Suarez play out wide? Raheem Sterling? If Rodgers wanted Forrest to play in a Navas type role then I'd agree - him over Griffiths all day long. But that is not the type of position the 'wide' player takes up. There is no reason whatsoever why Griffiths cant play off the centre as part of a front three - in fact one of his big strengths is cutting in a hitting shots from outside the box.

Aye..... a bit like the much maligned 'Lubo role' for Stokes.

Suarez was always a striker at Liverpool. Never played outside. |

That was exactly my point. Rodgers doesn't play with wingers. Therefore the debate over who would be best playing as a winger is moot. Griffiths could easily play off the central striker which looks like being Dembele.

Sturridge often played wide of Suarez but no one saw him as a winger. Likewise Neymar plays off the left for Barca and Messi on the right - they're still forwards who score a ridiculous amount of goals. In the past David Villa and Henry played wide left and similarly scored plenty. If Griffiths starts from the right he'll be asked to play a similar role to the aforementioned guys, he won't be playing like an outside winger, so I don't see the issue at all. |
