Who do we go with on Saturday
Forrest or Roberts
I would stick with Roberts as he for me is more effective and has a better final ball. I thought he overdid it at times on Wednesday but overall se him as a more consistent and potent threat.
What's the consensus and why?

I would also drop Bitton who I think is struggling and put in Armstrong.

I would go for Roberts. I think Forrest has really improved, but I think Roberts is a different level altogether. I would be delighted if we managed to get him permanently - far happier than if a large chunk, or all, of the transfer kitty went on someone like McCarthy instead.

Roberts more offensive but forrests better in tracking back al trust brendans judgment on this one a think.

Roberts all day long. Forrest has improved, a bit, but still doesn't do half as much as Roberts.

With the goals and assists that forrest has had this season I would be happy of see either of them start.

Personally I much prefer Roberts BUT I understand BR's thinking behind playing Forrest from the start because it allows him to bring on Roberts against a tired LB for the last half an hour of a game and there's only ever going to be one winner there. Think they'll give us a right good game on Sunday, it should be a cracker!

Forrest has been a pleasant surprise this season. but he seems to be going backwards at the moment. When the chips are down, ie Borussia he loses confidence and seems scared to go on the outside and beat the man, instead preferring to cut inside and look for an 'out' pass. Roberts will try to beat his man all day long, but. he prefers to cut inside too, more effectively than Forrest. Roberts for me and the way Guardiola is binning players at MC, I would love it if we could sneak him.

Roberts or Forrest? I would like Roberts in but would trust BR's judgement. Bitton or Armstrong is a no brainer for me. Armstrong all the way.

Forrest better tracking back Mally? Come on man forrest is one of the laziest players iv ever seen at celtic. And he is slowly going back to his former self in recent seasons. Improved under rodgers but its only been a handful of games.
