Good game today. Bet he doesn't put together a run of good performances. He is rubbish and I stand by that. |

The lad is a talent. His pace and direct running can hurt teams. I thought he played well today, particularly the 2nd half. Reading the comments above about being gutless, hides etc., some players are like that but you let the experienced players or the leaders to talk them through the game, encourage them or give them a bollocking. We don't have many/any to do that and hence when the chips are down, Forrest isn't one you turn to to get us going. But if you have other players alongside him that are leaders then they will carry the team and perhaps inspire the lad to get the ball and have a go. Personally I would have Forrest before Armstrong/Mackay-Steven or anyone else we have that can play out wide and I would hazard a guess that we couldn't afford anyone else with his talent. |

Even rubbish players will have their good games from time to time. That's not really difficult to understand so I don't get why you don't He is a poor player who can have a good game here and there. Over rated amongst the support bigtime |

Lots having a go at him and yet you say he's overrated? He's a good player. Nobody is saying he is Messi. |

There are a fair few on here who rate him as well. Baffling really |

I'm sure the 'bafflement' is mutual. He might be frustrating at times and even have bad games( very few don't) but he is in no way in the dud category of which we've had a few. |

It's easy to turn it on when your team's already 2 goals up. |

I've said it numerous times in the past but James Forrest will never reach his full potential playing in Scotland. There are rare occasions like today when he has the chance to take players on one on one and hit the by line but the majority of the time we're playing against packed defences of 10 men where there's no space for him to run into. Forrest's inability to do what he's did today on a more regular basis is more a mark against Scottish football than James Forrest |

If that was the case, then he would excel in European ties when we play stronger sides who don't sit in. Blaming Scottish football for Forrest's obvious inconsistency is taking the piss. |

I know. While he done well to set up Griffiths' 2nd, you will rarely see a decent team pushing so high up or chasing the game and leaving him with one man to beat in order to get into the box. |

For a spell in the second half he was terrific. It would take a lot more spells on a much more consistent basis before I'd change my view on him though. |

Funny how the goalposts get shifted when he has another decent game. He's played well more often than not this season. Edit: Spelling Edited by only1henke, 9 Nov 2015, 12:07 AM.

Would like to see him go on the outside more often. Too often he cuts inside. |
