James Forrest

Aye, serious * me off tonight..

 

Not even going to say anything... he says it all with that performance

 

He was woeful tonight would go jota and abada next two, forrests usually an empty shirt against the huns anyway.

 

Still, another start..

Was pish tho.

 

Maybe 70% match fit , take another 5 games to get sharp .

 

There’s getting sharp, and getting your head up squaring a pass to your team mate can be played through to score.. poor tonight should have been off at half time

 

A player who is not looking like he even wants to reach his potential.
He's sadly a reminder of typical player last season. Before Ange changed the tempo and direction back to the Celtic way.
Forrest is too often indecisive, looking more to play sideways or backwards & worse for too long now he just does not work anywhere near hard enough. Seldom tracks back effectively.
He's become a limited, lazy & selfish player who scores the rare screamer that makes enough fans forget he's just not good enough anymore.

To be fair to him, he's been hacked so many times by thugs in the past, allowed encouraged to by shyte refs, he was never allowed to improve on his real potential, now seasons back.

 

Pish tonight. That one first half when he couldn’t control the pass from Hatate, and then just gave up chasing it when he could have pressured the defender as Gordon didn’t come for it initially

 

Yeh all down to sharpness , and pace gives that fraction more time to look up wen your first touch and pace is good

 

Played a lovely ball to him as well but like has happened so often with him of late, he doesn't anticipate/gamble enough..

He looks like he has lost a yard of pace. Once pace goes for him, he is finished, because he isn’t someone that is great technically. He relies on his pace to past his man by dropping the shoulder.

 

Not jumping on the boat that he's finished yet, but he's definitely lost a yard of pace.

Would maybe think of trying him through the middle? I remember we played him at attacking mid a few times.

Or maybe we'll follow the trend of converting wingers into fullbacks once/if Juranovic leaves, could maybe be a shout.

 

Worst individual performance of the season imo

 

that was horrendous, there was a tap in for him there but he didn’t read it/want it enough. Brutal tonight, needs to pull his finger out his * quickly.
