    His pace and press is what he's all about, constantly wins the ball high up the park, still lots of room to improve end product.

    Time for Forrest to take the right wing spot after the international break and give Abada a target to aim for. His form has dipped but he’s young and he’s a winger so it’ll happen.

    Think he's excellent and wouldn't drop him for anyone. His runs are brilliant and some more time he'll be devastating. This guy understands ralston aswel and they are playing great together. Changing that dynamic could mess up our great play.

    He does have a great understanding with Ralston but would like to see him repay that a bit more by helping out more in defensive situations.

    Not hurt us too badly so far as Ralston is solid on the right, but can see definitely it hurting us more against the Huns were things will be more stretched.

    If Karamoko hadn't got injured I reckon he'd have been first choice RW over Forrest and Abada

    Based on what mate?

    He was really unfortunate, but nobody has seen him play enough first team football to argue he could be consistent enough.

    In my opinion mate he plays well beyond his years whenever he's on the pitch, good decision maker on the ball, skillful and able to beat men for fun, his weight of pass is always excellent and he sees things others don't, he frequently spots and executes through balls regularly, a goal threat too. Just an overall top talent and one I hope returns to the team asap however looks like he's gonna be out for many months ahead sadly

    His pressing game is so underated, wins the ball back for the third goal

    Has genuine pace which is very handy in Europe in particular but anytime teams aren’t camped in we also don’t have many others with that. Can finish of either foot, presses well and makes good runs.

    He needs to improve his general passing and be more crisp and secure and he does lack a trick to beat a player when faced up but similar to Kyogo makes some excellent runs that aren’t picked out.

    Someone with real vision playing as a deep lying playmaker for us with our current front 3 would improve us further. It would mean probably needing a more aggressive box to box midfielder as well rather than Turnbull to do some of the dirty work and further improve our pressing game. Those two signing would vastly improve our squad rotation options as you would then have Bitton who can sit, McGregor who is versatile, Turnbull who is more attacking, Rogic who is a playmaker, number 10 type and those two additions for three spaces.

    Changing Abada for Forrest will improve our play, not ‘mess’ it up. Forrest is the better player.

    Reckon he has good pace, pressing and has canny knack of being in the right place to score. His vision and passing need improving but that will come with experience.
    I would be all for rotating him with Forrest, dont think it would impact Ralston in any way.

    Dreadful performance again from him yesterday, JF to start from now on.
    A spell in the subs should recharge him, decent impact sub option.

    Hes kinda piggybacked on the form of Jota and Kyogo to the point its considered the "front 3". When in reality he's been poor of late. Potential though and will get time off the bench whilst Jamesy tears it up

    His numbers have been very good since coming in, but his overall play has been pretty poor. He has played more than he would have had we not been hit by so many injuries so far this season. Still very young and he will only improve. He is a good option to have and I think coming off the bench he could have a big impact, which is what I see happening now that we are getting players back to fitness.

    Is there anything good about his game, other than the odd finish here and there? Even then he’s only scored 3 goals since mid August. 1 being against Raith Rovers.
