Played well tonight and just undone by a couple lapses.
But does anyone agree that was James forrest best game he has ever had for Celtic.
He looked like he really belonged on that stage
best man on the park by a country mile.

I said a few days ago on here, Forrest has been playing really well lately, I wonder if he’ll ever get a song! Scored some big goals for us in the past too, and yeah, he was very good tonight as was KT and McGregor.

Agree was a great performance by the wee man trouble with him he's another sammy just don't know which ones going to turn up. Motm was broony tho by a mile was pure class tonight bossed a midfield of there's worth x amount of millions.
Walked out the game knowing to a man we matched them with all we had. proud to be a tim roll on Saturday records are there to be broken and I just happen to have a ticket 😀.

Forrest best player on the field tonight and I have to say although wingers are notorious for their lack of consistency, James has been excellent this season and last . I was worried he would tire after 60 mins and we would miss Paddy R v badly as sub but Forrest went on and on all game.

I was thinking last night off the top of my head, that was JF's best game given the opposition.
It was a really encouraging performance from the majority of the side, which is all I was asking last night. It was just the cream rising to the top in the end but for the most part we matched Bayern.
If we continue to play with that intensity in Europe, we'll give Anderlecht a hiding, and surprise a few people in the Europa.

to me forrest looks the part.
moves well and tries and has a few tricks.
but 99% of his moves don't result in goals - and that's what the game is all about.
Roberts on the other hand has all of the above but his goals to run ratio is higher.
and what to goals make?
also who would you say is the better defender/ track backer (when we need to)

I have always rated Forrest and always wanted him to stay, unlike a lot of people on here.
I am just glad that he is starting to prove his detractors wrong.
For me, he has been one of our top performers this season and deserves to start ahead of Roberts.

Generally speaking Roberts is a better footballer than Forrest, and more importantly, more effective. But Forrest is playing well lately and deserves his chances. We seen Forrest getting picked ahead of Roberts in the first half of last season and Roberts really came into the limelight.
