Pat Fenlon has urged Leigh Griffiths to concentrate on football after he netted a crucial equaliser against Hearts.
The Hibernian boss lavished praise on the 21-year-old after he put in a strong performance against their city rivals.
Griffiths is on a six month loan from Wolverhampton Wanderers and Fenlon believes the striker can play at the highest level if he concentrates on his game.
Fenlon told the official Hibernian website: “I thought Leigh caused them all sort of problems. He's a good player and I think Leigh knows himself that he's just got to concentrate on playing football.
“I firmly believe he can play at a much higher level if he puts his mind to it. He’s a young player whose work rate and attitude are fantastic and he brings a lot to the team.
“We passed the ball quite well, particularly in the first half. We kept it well and caused Hearts some problems.
“It was a great time to equalise because if you've played well and go in at half time a goal down it can deflate players.”
