Starting his 6th season in our first team, still has the same failings as he did on his debut
This. Time to move on.
I didn't realise he'd been here so long :rubeyes:

Just not good enough, sadly.

Felt sorry for him tonight. Having to pick the ball up midway inside your own half and having to run against a wide player and a full back makes things pretty difficult.

He can leave anytime

Although this window would be preferable! 👍

Forrest has one job on a football pitch: get to the byline and cross the ball. That's it. If he can't do it - and he didn't manage it once tonight - there's no point in having him around. He contributed zero tonight.
Put a cross out for a goal kick.
Have you really been watching Celtic :suspect:
Check Izzys record at crossing a ball.

There was worse performers on the pitch tonight than Forrest's substitute appearance

So many injuries have taken their toll on him. He's still not looking 100% fit and I'm not sure if bulking up has done much for his overall game. Thought he was pretty poor when he came on tonight. Is this him into the last year of his deal?

Are you serious. :rubeyes: He only has that one job :ffs: Is that your knowledge of what a wide midfielder s job is.
I think Ronny wants his. nah why bother. You want to trash Forrest then go ahead.

He hasn't progressed as much as he should. He will get the season I think but he needs to do a bit more. Hopefully if he stays injury free he can do this.

Punt.

Nowhere near good enough. Had plenty chances his game is so predictable and final ball is atrocious.

This will be a big season for Forrest. Same as the last 5.

He looks utterly devoid of confidence. It'd probably be best for him if he rebuilt that confidence elsewhere.

On the basis of the original posters job description, Forrest done his job tonight. Once :ph43r:
Don't get me started on Izzy.

Getting worse when he should be getting better, painfully bad at times. Mix of a poor touch and poor decision making for me. What good things he has done in his career outwith the Karagandy goal and that tidy finish away to Hibs about 4 years ago? I'm stumped.

Doesn't know how to skin people.
At one point he was about 6 yards away from the player when he tried to knock it by him. Was effing tragic.
That was pitiful. I'd still punt him.

Sigh. Maybe I should have clarified for the hard of thinking. As a winger, he has one specific job that is unique to his position, in addition to all the other jobs that all players in all positions have to do. James Forrest isn't very good at that unique job. Don't take the criticism so personally, James. Maybe that's why you're pish these days.

That's true. And Forrest himself obviously isn't the reason we struggle in games like this.

He is quite pish though.

That appears to be all you have. Sarcasm trying to belittle people and actually only belittling yourself.
Grow up.
