    I can’t remember Forrest ever giving us a performance at Ibrox. I was amazed he started, even more amazed he wasn’t hooked at half time.

    Looked sharp when he came on but he should have buried the chance he had at the back post, instead he smashed it at the keeper.

    Night and day compared to starting against them.

    Should have scored the day.

    Yes and could say the same about a few others. JF seems to contribute way more from the bench.

    Had more touches in his 10min cameo today than he was in the hour he played last week.

    That's all we need him for to give the first team guys a rest.

    This and Joost's other smasher on Giako show why simply following stats can only tell you so much about football.

    Tbf Joost forgot to include last season with GG so that's why it didn't look great but he fixed it and GG profiled much better.

    Forrest one the stats are about right but the interpretation of it is wrong so that's a good example why stats are half the picture.

    He did one for Taylor though which was a bit more controversial. Taylor had a high finishing probability and a low passing one but Taylor can't shoot for * and I think he's a decent passer of the ball. Not sure where he pulled the stats for that one lol

    Fair enough, didn't realise his one on Giako was just this season, that makes more sense.

    I love stats to a point and really enjoy statistical analysis btw, but definitely think there is a lot they simply can't communicate.

    He might have a good shot to goal ratio seen as he hardly ever shoots lol

    Will take into account the quality of his chances aswell. Tbf to Forrest, minus the huns game he has been pretty good.

    Aye a think he has his uses but not in our big games, it always seems to be the case that we’re reliant on guys like that in our big games
