James Forrest

Well you look at Kyogos goal, he chased back, won the ball back and went on to the attack. He had no intention in chasing back was just jogging about like he was running in treacle, their second goal he was the furthest player forward not even attempting to run back, Jota and Abada chased their arsed off the entire time they were on. Then you had the infamous missed the pass, throwing his hands about, meanwhile the ball trundles out the park, fresh legs and instead of chasing it just stood there watching. That's not lack of game time that's lack of commitment. Something Jota and Abada had in droves tonight.

 

Did he touch the ball when he came on?

Looks well off it.

 

Took a long diagonal down with a great first touch..

Kept it well over their corner late on as well..

 

Definitely. Great to see him back.

 

Just looked off it for me and I recall one time he lost the ball he should have been bursting a gut to track back but was just jogging back.

 

expected better from him tonight, coming on against a tired defence and he did nothing against them.

 

He’s needing to take a dunt and get back up and realise it’s not all that bad. Can remember Larsson saying after his leg break the first time it happened to him it took his worries about it away.

Think Forrest looks worried about it. He grew into the game later it got though, can’t wait till he’s upto speed.

 

Looked a threat when he was on..

Should've has an assist with a top run and rounding the keeper..

I love his incisive passes in when linking up as well. Always on the move for the one two..

He'll get there. International break means he's no being rushed....which is a plus..

 

Him an Abada give us two different things, Abada will press more and win the ball high up the mark and will get into the 6yrd box more than Jamesy..

Jamesy gives you a better final product, more defensive cover and is a much better passer of the ball..

Both, excellent options.

 

Love him

 

The difference this man makes is incredible, for me, he's the final piece we needed for this system.

I hope that's him first choice again, just need to pray he doesn't get injured again.

 

Boy have we missed this guy's big moments in big games.

 

Saintskekper

 

1st choice ahead of Abada for me.

 

Back with a semi final winning goal so cant complain, lets hope he stays fit now.

 

Abada will never be at Forrest’s level.

 

People really think Abada is better than him…
