    Don't get this greedy nonsense. OK, he did suffer in second half because we were getting over run but greedy???

    Dont think he was greedy, He was decent in the 1st half as everyone was. Second half was just a mess, everybody at the clappers for some reason.

    That was a great save from the keeper at his near post.

    *Forrest receives the ball out wide and goes by his man*
    "Pass it"
    "Pass it"
    *goes by 2 players*
    "Wow nice Jamesy!, pass it now though"
    "Pass it, quick"
    *Forrest cuts inside*
    "How has he still got the ball, pass it!"
    *scuffs shot*
    "Aww for * sake! I hate this *"

    Repeat ad nauseam.
    Still love him though. Defenders hate the *, can see it everytime he gets the ball.

    I think James needs a couple of weeks on the bench to give the guy a rest .
    He is not the James Forrest of last season .

    He's a cracking player on his day, has scored really important goals for us over the years and contributes with more than his fair share of assists. However, when we play physical teams (I'm thinking of recent games v Them) he has the tendency to play very scared, pull out of any 50/50s and spend the majority of the game hiding. I'd love to see him play harder and with more aggression when teams start putting the boot into us.

    played out of position and had nobody to support his runs - managers fault.

    His performances have dropped dramatically. He has incredible statistics, but consistency isn't one of them unfortunately.

    I feel like last season was the same. Had an unbelievable first few months then massively dipped.

    I've gone the exact opposite way on him I used to think he got a hard time of it but I now feel he gets an easy ride as if its to be expected that he will be non existent in big games

    I think forrest has been poor for a few weeks now, with the exception of the odd assist and a goal, i feel that his overall performances have been below the level he has set himself and i dont think he has benefitted from the shuffling of the formation/system

    Pish to be honest, shat it when he would have had a tap in and then second half went fully into hide mode. Can't even remember him beating his man the whole night.

    Been inconsistent lately, would start Jerry and have him on the bench.

    He's not played well for about 4 month.
