BR talking about playing Gump as a centre forward on Wednesday. Heard he'd a good game yesterday where did he play? ☘ï¸.
30 Jul 2017 16:59:06
Played through the middle up front. Maybe I'm in the minority but I think he looks like he's carrying some bad weight.
30 Jul 2017 17:11:05
Did he play well VT the managers raving about him?
30 Jul 2017 17:12:54
If Forrest plays upfront on Wednesday then we'd be aswell not turning up! What so many managers see in this guy I will never know! Like I said last week, I sit in the Lisbon lions upper but got a ticket for the main stand for Wednesdays game so I got to witness up close just how garbage this guy is! Yes people will say I'm being negative and all the rest, but for me there is no positives when it comes to Forrest! He'll have 2 decent games In 10 and they somehow warrants him being in the team! Brendan is really risking our CL chances if he puts him upfront on Wednesday!

With the final ball akin to big didi and the shooting radar of Brian mcglaughlin he'l bang em in. Headed hatrick I reckon.
30 Jul 2017 17:50:49
Agreed he blows hot and cold LH86 and flatters to deceive at times but on his game last year he was immense and kept Wee Pats arse warming the bench much of the time. I get the impression you're not s big Florist fan and understand your frustrations but a bit harsh LH86 naw? ðŸ‘😂☘ï¸.
30 Jul 2017 17:56:34
Forrest had a good first half of the season even ED007 agreed at the time and we all know his take on "Florist" 😂😂. But I just don't think he is consistent enough. He's definitely improved as a player under Rodgers but he isn't our answer to a RW. When there is better out there even at a lower cost than PR.
30 Jul 2017 18:10:01
😂😂😂 I maybe sound a bit harsh JFP. just don't rate the guy and never have mate! I wouldn't even have him In his natural position never mind hangin our hopes on Wednesday game on him upfront! To say it fills me with no confidence is an understatement! But hey he mite bang a couple in against rosenborg and I'll have egg on my face, but I seriously doubt it! Hope he proves me wrong but I've lost count how many times I've said that about him, and he never does!
30 Jul 2017 18:13:20
your right viking noticed when he lifted his shirt to wipe his face more pudge than you expect from a modern professional I was not impressed with him at all McGregor was the standout.
30 Jul 2017 18:15:41
Putting him up front might be a masterstroke because it means he can make runs and drag defenders out of positions without having to give him the ball.
30 Jul 2017 18:27:11
I thought Forrest and Sinky were our only below par players yesterday.
30 Jul 2017 18:31:24
McGregor makes some amazing runs into space as well. Amazing finisher of the ball. Maybe he could be the centre of the False 9 we are looking for?
30 Jul 2017 18:36:05
Fair points made by all. My issue with Forrest is his work rate. Quite often he loses the ball by cutting inside and then proceeds to jog as in some kind of token effort to get back to "help" defend.
There is no doubt he has talent when he turns up but when you look at the stick Calum McGregor gets when he works hard, is generally consistent and of late has improved massively I think Forrest deserves the criticism he gets.
30 Jul 2017 19:01:18
Upfront might be a better option as he is hopeless out the wing. can't beat a man on go on the outside of the wing constantly cutting infield then passing it off. His shots as well all outside of the right foot.
30 Jul 2017 19:28:57
Surely he's got to score the winner on Wednesday now after all of us giving him so much stick lol.
30 Jul 2017 19:37:34
If Gump scores a hat trick on Wednesday night I reckon LH86 should get a 'There's Only Wan James Florist' tattoo! What dae ye think LH86? ðŸ‘😂☘ï¸.
30 Jul 2017 19:41:16
McGregor would be a better option up front with Rogic behind him.
30 Jul 2017 20:41:56
Wee Forrest scoring a hat trick JFP! Al get the tattoo if he gets 3 shots on target never mind score them 😂😂😂😂😜😜ðŸ€ðŸ€.
30 Jul 2017 20:57:32
I would be better up front than Gump, staggering aboot with a kerryoot shouting at people. Might get a deflection on target.
30 Jul 2017 21:15:52
Lh86
Funny enough the people who matter most, his managers, seem to appreciate his talents most . Lennon R D and B R all have used him very often for Celtic and WGS has used him often for Scotland . These people are to some extent putting their jobs at risk when they played him . Loud mouths in the stands and forum posters try to make the manager's job harder but so far Forrest and Brendan are currently winning.
30 Jul 2017 21:53:02
I posted before that McGregor played as striker when he was on loan with Sheffield utd, or whoever it was, and scored a barrow load of goals, people disagreed with me so is my memory wrong.
30 Jul 2017 22:01:40
Was it Notts County he was on loan to.
30 Jul 2017 22:14:39
Yeah, that's it, but he did score a lot of goals.
31 Jul 2017 00:07:11
he scored a lot the first half of the season for notts but I think he was playing behind the striker in a cam type position.
