James Forrest

Spot on mate, always one of the first to get it after a typical * show performance

 

Correct.

he’s still a very good player to have in some situations but you can’t chuck him on and expect him to get you a winner anymore

 

I sometimes forget then start laughing when I remember Yang and Forrest are our natural options there.

If there was ever an indicator of our mess, it's that.

 

If you want a laugh Forrest started a 50m game for us

 

Done well I thought. Played Engels through and had a couple of decent crosses you would want someone to attack.

 

34 years old years old and tracking back to get an excellent tackle in to stop Motherwell throwing over a cross which may have given them a final chance in the last kick of the game. Just sums up the commitment from a guy who has given his entire career to Celtic.

 

He was fine again. Him as a 5th choice winger would be totally fine in his last year, rest players in games that are over, play the odd home game against the bottom 3 etc. Not this.

 

Hate seeing him coming on nowadays, but he was very good today.

 

Also noticed him telling Ralston to "calm it", after hitting the ball 25 yards in front of him.

 

He's good those games where he comes on for 20-30 minutes against teams who are sitting back and we can just leave him high up the park and feed him.

 

Was good, he's always very neat around the box

 

Over in Ireland watching Dundalk V Finn Harps on Friday night

 

Im glad martin gave forrest some well deserved praise as celtic fans at times we 100% under appreicate him.

He may run into players or misplace a pass but he is.never afraid to show for the ball.and try to be positive

 

Looked really quick at points tonight. Really good contribution and a bit unlucky not to get a goal.

 

Still offers a lot more than Balikwisha.

 

I felt James Forrest was brilliant tonight, considering he's the same age as me. But he was great.

We needed him. Great, because down the right-hand side, somebody to take people on. Got that little burst of pace as well too. He made some great crosses. Just a fine footballer. Really fine player.

 

Thought he was excellent, looked freed up roaming around the pitch and created a lot.

 

The more I think about it and how fit he looks. It's absolutely ridiculous how he's not started more games this season.

He's obviously not quite what we want on the right hand side at his age, but that being said, he must have been heavy * off at Rodgers for constantly talking about finding a solution on the right hand side when he's there fit and ready.

60 mins of a 35yo James Forrest, is infinitely better than putting a square peg in a round hole. It was actually pretty shocking management in hindsight. Maybe borderline disrespectful

 

He was great as everyone else. Amazing to the point of being ridiculous how we went from EVERY single player in the entire squad being dog *, to every single player being excellent.
