    We really need Forrest to produce in a big way now over these next few weeks. Lets hope he can build on last Mondays good showing against Hibernian and go on a good run of form now.

    We were pretty much playing with 10 men the entire game, he was atrocious.

    No way does he start ahead of Abada for me. Not blaming Ange as Abada came off an Injury but still.

    Should be keeping that ball in their corner for the last 30 seconds there, summed up his evening really.

    Seemed a lot greedier than usual, had to slip Abada in for 3-1 instead of smashing it out of the stadium.

    How anyone thinks he's better than Abada is beyond me.

    Has been a great player for us, you get the odd flash of the player he has been but, is time dwindling out for Forrest?

    He very, very rarely ever turns up against the huns, he's usually always a man down against them, Abada has to start ahead of him, pity Karamoko is still missing because he would have gave Abada and Forrest a real challenge for that RW position

    His end product is basically non existent this season. You can still count on him to hold the ball under pressure and in tight areas but he's really stinking the place out in the final third.

    He's lost his pace, and defensively he is nowhere.

    I hoped he'd be better than Abada, as I don't rate him, but he's disappointing so far.

    He’s * *, and a greedy, selfish *.

    Sick of the sight of him.

    Decision making is guff and looks to have lost a good yard of pace

    Said this a wee while back, and my view hasn't changed. If anything cemented it further. Forrest is no longer first choice. He's an impact sub to play the last 30mins at most, over 20-25 games.

    He's 30 and injuries have slowed him right down. Ange demands more than ever from the squad and as we become quicker, more direct and dynamic, his flaws and injury plagued body are highly evident and often a man down.

    I hope he can get back to some level of consistency, but he'll never be the player he was. He'll always be a one club player and a legend in his own right.

    Abada's stats are impressive, this is who we need to focus on whilst getting Jota and another winger in.

    Obviously a very stop start season so far, but he’s looked pish any time he’s played.

    Would be 3rd or 4th choice out wide if everyone was fit.

    This year and a half he's been out of the team has * him by the looks of it. Another couple of games and we'll know better if he's able to start getting back to his top level.

    His decision making at times was really poor tonight, the one that Abada put across the box to him at the back post, why didn’t he just hit that coming in onto it.

    For me we need a standout player for out on the right wing. Abada is a good option and should start on Saturday in that position but I would like another game changer type out there as when Jota went off tonight we lost so much.

    Infuriating tonight.

    That was like 2011-2013 Forrest. Horrific.
