Good enough backup to Roberts if he can keep up this type of form.
Theres the thing......

Roberts
Sinclair
Dembele
Griffiths

When they are all fit, Forrest aint playing and nor should he be. Its a long season and if hes fit he will get games its up to him to take the chances when he gets them.

Excellent again tonight

Great work rate, up and down the pitch all night, tracking runs, getting at people, running at them at the other end

Feared the worst when he went down, hopefully comes to nothing

We've got to hope he sets high standards for himself this season & he gets the support from us that he should. Its early in the season - no need to be too critical but no reason why we cant want a bit more from & for him either.

His entire attitude seems to have changed. When he went down injured I was convinced he was going to ask to be subbed. Last season he would have. Staying on and continuing to be involved is a marked improvement.

I'd rather we stuck by an improving home grown player before pining for a loanee.

Right. Roberts is injured. He's also not our player. So - given that decent wingers are pretty rare, and Forrest is playing very well and may even fulfill his true potential under Brendan, I'd say keeping him at Celtic is a sensible decision.

Are you mad? I get that he's playing a bit better, but Roberts is twice the player he'll ever be, and it'd be best for the team, to field the best player in the position, not some sentimental pish

Weakest forward player tonight, you're all mental
Seriously? Dont know what match you were watching. Great game from him. Deserved a goal tonight!
Forrest improved again tonight and put a great performance in.

However the guy isnt lying, hes just saying the other forwards were better and they were, lets not be prescious about defending his honour.

More of the same please.
:lol: :lol: ffs weakest forward player. Why put a negative slant on his performance? Guy played well, credit where its due

I'd rather just play the much better player, funnily enough.

Going by Rodgers interview he's sussed what Forrest is good at and will play to that as well as adding a bit of pressing to his game when he's not got the ball.

More performances like that please, James. He is someone we should be able to rely on and the biggest disappointment for me has been that we have not been able to. Was very surprised to see him come back on after he seemed to twist his knee. Fair play to him.

Far be it from me to fight other folks corner but technically hes correct in what he said.

The lad did very very well tonight and id love to see much more of this and more of what we all know hes actually capable of shining through in his play. Ive been one of his fiercest critics and because im a right arse of a boy and dont like admitting when im wrong about something he will still come under scrutiny from me. All joking aside he has a lot more to do, hes starting to show signs of turning it around though and that should make any Celtic fan happy.

You can't be serious.

You think we should play Forrest over Roberts this season, because the latter is not our permanent player?
