Simple question is... Is Leigh Griffiths better than what we have - Yes. Is Scott Brown better than what we have - Yes. We need to start thinking about how to get over the line to be successful and get to finals and win trophies with this team.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

There are 90 minutes in a game so a player completing 10 league games in a season will have played 900 minutes.
Leigh hasn't managed that for the last 3 seasons so he isn't even a 10 game a season player never mind a 20 goal a season player.
Someone posted on here that he is on £19k a week so let's say that's true. That means he still has another £1 million to pick up in wages from Celtic before his contract ends. Therefore at the end of this season Celtic would probably have to pay him £700k to go away and that would allow him to go to Aberdeen or Hibs for £4k a week and make the same money.
However, Celtic is his home so he probably wants to stay there as long as he can, tieing scarves to goal posts when he is fit enough and available to do so.Last edited by CMurdoch; 31-03-2021 at 09:57 AM.

Brown I’m not so sure about, always wondered if he’d get away the same antics with another team that he got away with at Celtic. Add in his age and I’m not fussed.

Brown is unlikely to play many games this season. Even if he does, it'll be his swan song, although I suspect he's having that now.
Is Griffiths a better player than Nisbet? One of them is in the Scotland squad this week with a bright international future ahead of him. The other won't play for Scotland again.
I'd far rather keep Nisbet than sign Griffiths.

If he can't flourish at Celtic, it's a big leap to think he will at a club where chances are much more limited.
I know he didn't always start, but that, in itself, begs the question why.

Remember when we were all clamoring for Anthony Stokes to be brought "home" and that if we signed him we would be absolutely unstoppable. Then remember when we actually signed him and we were all saying we were going to be banging the goals in and we would be loving watching us pump teams because of the firepower we would have. Then remember how that went?
Aye, me too.

I’m like you, have a hope he’ll come home and flourish. Tbf none of the Celtic strikers have flourished this season, so I’m not reading too much into that and I think Lennon obviously had issues with him, deserved or not I don’t really know.

LG from a few years ago? Yes please, bite your hand off for that. LG of today? Not so sure, could be a very expensive bench warmer

Leigh Griffiths will always score goals its in his nature, Scott Brown is different, would he get away with his arrogant ways at any other club?
I don't think so!!!

We could go round in circles.
Leigh's capable of being by far our best player - maybe even the best striker Scotland has. The question is obviously whether he would be.

I was like that when Deek resigned, but I almost wish he hadn't come back now because it ended up a bit of a damp squib.

Even though I honestly don't give one, I do object to people inventing stuff about me.

Yes that’s a good point re DR, I’d hate it to end up similar with LG.
