He was desperate not to sign Balotelli. Didn't want him near the club. |

Back 3 doesn't do it for me. We don't look anywhere near as creative as we normally do. I've wanted Griffiths and Dembele to start for a while but as part of a 4-2-3-1, the two times we've started both of them we've completely changed the formation and the team has looked disjointed overall. |

Where do you accommodate both of them though if you don't play them both up top Griffiths out on the wing doesn't work mostly. |

Jesus eff no. Forrest, Rogic and Sinclair should always start. Edited by james95, 13 Dec 2016, 11:06 PM.

Exactly, there's no need to accomdate both of them. BR picks the one he thinks best able to do a job in any given match. The other guy has to suck it up. |

Showed again tonight why he is reluctant to play Griff and Dembele. Completely changes the balance of the side. Both players don't lpok like they compliment each other either. Time to go back to Moussa ilup top alone and use Griff if we are chasing a goal. |

Just out of curiousity what if he plays out his skin and bangs a couple of goals before Ibrox. Do you drop the form player to bring back the guys whose form has dipped? |

Or we should play the striker who's in the best form, which at the moment is Griffiths. |

Together up front or with Griffiths a wee bit deeper. |

Play whoever is most likely to do a job on the day. That's all that matters. |

Moussa clearly suits Rodgers system better. He might be on a poor run of form in terms of goals but he can still add something different to the team. No harm giving Griff the next game but get Moussa back in the team and up to speed for the huns away. |

Both Dembele and Griffiths are more than capable of playing up top for us. Griffiths had the jersey to begin with, got injured and Dembele stepped up. He was superb for us against the huns and Man City in particular and deserved to keep the jersey even when Griffiths was fit again. Dembele hit a bit of a slump (it happens) and Griffiths has hit form again and deserves to be first choice again, it's as simple as that. |

I disagree. Moussa makes us a more effective side. Even when he is not scoring he tends to contribute something. I like Griff, I just think Moussa is the better player and we will perform better with him in the side. In any case, Rodgers will most likely select Moussa when it matters. |

I think the idea that Dembele somehow "fits into the system" better than Griffiths is a myth. They are both equally as capable of playing upfront for us. The only time I wouldn't dispute Dembele being the absolute number 1 choice is away from home in Europe for his physicality alone, other than that it's fair game. |

Either Forrest of Sinclair changes the whole dynamic. Tonight was simply mark Rogic and Roberts. Also, horses for courses, if the huns stick to the 4-1-4-1 that beat the diet huns it will be perfect. |
