James Forrest from celtic being mooted in the papers this morning. Good little winger and still pretty young at 22. What do you think eds?

{Ed025's Note - i dont know a lot about him to be honest charlie..

James forrest was touted to be a superstar a few Years ago


2.) 02 May 2014
He's a good player but i'm sure he has been having trouble with injuries

Got a few Celtic supporting mates and the general consensus is that he's a good winger, but the SPL is his level. Like Hull's Brady; great for them, and would be good for someone around mid table, but would struggle to get into a top half team.

{Ed007's Note - I don't know what Celtic supporting mates you're talking to AB but not too many, including myself, rate Forrest even in the SPFL. Have a read on the Celtic pages. The papers are mentioning £7 million for him, the support would physically carry him down south for that money for him, just in case he got injured by driving/flying down. He's a perma-injured one trick pony winger who can't cross the ball or cut inside from out wide, imagine a very poor Ashley Young and you are getting there with Forrest.}

So just imagine a current Ashley Young, then? Seriously though, didn't realise he was that bad. I last spoke to them about him last year, so either opinions have changed since then, or I'm not remembering things quite right. Either way, I didn't, and now definitely don't, want him.

{Ed007's Note - If Celtic didn't have Samaras then James Forrest would be the main focus of the fans anger, that's if he was ever fit enough to get a run in the team, he is very injury prone. To be fair he was a great prospect as a youth player and going into his 20's but, like a lot of Scottish youth players, he hasn't kicked on (except for his ego) and he turns 23 this summer.}

Your saying this about him. I've seen him and he is a bit of Wigans Mcmanaman about him or a Mcgeady. What you're forgetting is he has Lennon as a manager, here he'll have Martinez a Manager who knows how to get the best out of his talent and put into a system that would be best suited for him. In Martinez we trust, Lennon has held him back too long he needs to be let loose now with a brilliant football brain to guide him.

Howie go onto the celtic page and see how they are greeting the news of florist as they call him leaving. he's poor when he's fit and that's not often. Never mind him on a charge of flashing
