As an aside it surprises me the number of players in recent seasons who have openly chucked it in certain games e.g Kayal,Samaras,Forrest,Bitton,Johansen - Average players (at best0 making a fortune and cgaf whether they put in a performance or are even in the team. |

Even you cannae argue that Forrest has not chucked it. He's apathetic from the moment he comes onto the pitch most times. Take him out that squad and you won't realise he's missing. |

He's a shampooebag to boot. I mind one game at CP he ducked out the way of a throw in, rather than head it. Disappears far too often in big games. Ajax away a couple of years ago stands out. GMS isn't much better, I'd get shot of both & prefer better. Both are heartless, but pound for pound GMS will contribute more through the course of a season. The fact that nobody has come in for Forrest says a lot. I reckon he could be bought for buttons. It's a shame the niggling injuries have taken their toll. But he should be punted. |

It has been quite apparent to me for a long time that he has no ambition. None. He is content with mediocrity and has no place at the club. The GMS comparisons are needless distractions. |

Hope him and his new quiff are shown the door ASAP. He's terrible and seems to have less passion than a plastic bag.

He's unrecognisable from the young kid that broke through 5 or so years ago. |

Should leave for his and our sake. Neither party is currently looking at progress with the current set up. |

Hate to say it but I blame NL for all the hype and tricking us into believing he was going to be special... |

He was good fora while though. Gone backwards and doesn't even look particularly bothered now. Even more apparent when Roberts is playing on the opposite wing. |

The wee carrot doesn't care. He just doesn't give a eff about the club, teammates or supporters. |

That's the thing. He was good. But people got carried away and thought he was something special. He had limited technical ability but his pace and willingness to take people on made for some electrifying moments. However he was only ever a kick and rush merchant who was good at skinning fullbacks but was erratic at everything else. Then full backs wised up to him, repeated hamstring injuries made him lose his explosiveness and it became a struggle. At which point he seemed to give up trying to find new ways to be effective and just moan at refs and team mates when he failed to beat his man again. He lost his appetite and hunger and is now an empty jersey. He's not going to improve because he never adapted his game when he needed to. |

Doesn't even seem arsed. It's incredible why he is still at the club when he clearly wants to be elsewhere. I'm not even sure he wants to be a footballer anymore |

Other than running offside on through balls, I'm not sure what else he offers? |

A one trick pony; the trick was blistering pace which he has lost through a series of hamstring problems.. Totally brainless, head down and runs without any awareness of what is around him. Shocking the number of times he is unnecessarily caught offside.. Poor at tracking back and ineffective when he gets there. Should have been punted last season. |
