    Flatters to deceive. Seriously lacks an end product

    Hasn't been as * as usual. :smiley-laughing002:

    He's getting praised because he has been good. Involved in a lot of our good play domestically and has been instrumental in getting us up the park in Europe.

    We will miss him tomorrow. We wont have his pace to link the defence and attack so I hope we take that in to consideration.

    Armstrong done it well last year, the important thing is working Commons into positions that he can do damage in.

    One game doesn't really equal consistently though mate.


    (I realise the same applies to Forrest but lets not dwell on that. :smiley-laughing002:)

    That's just *. But no surprise as I remember you saying how much better GMS is.

    I think Armstrong has been sharp as a tack in Europe. Can't do it for 90 minutes yet but in spurts he has been direct and caused a lot of problems.

    His end product is still rotten, if he can sort that out then he'll be a cracking player for us.

    He's great at going past players and now works quite hard, but his crossing (and shooting in particular) is poor.

    So you're in the know why other people praise him? Good for you. He's playing good, thats why i would praise him.

    Forrest getting it, * sake. He is one of the only players who has proven he is a game changer in Europe. If he is out its a massive loss

    If he can stay injury free he will be our Player of the year.

    Still don't know why he played on the artificial surface at Hamilton should have been rested.

    He had ran himself into the ground v Fener and was very likely to play in the internationals. He contributed very little to the Hamilton game anyway and you could see both he and Commons were shattered.

    Poor player management by Ronny.

    Deila has pretty much saved Forrest's Celtic career in that regard.

    When they are both on top form, I would say GMS is a better player. Both playing well, GMS will get more goals and assists in my opinion. He is going through a poor run of form just now though, no question about that, whilst Forrest is playing as good as he has done for a few years.

    We're a far better team when he's playing, hope people realise this now.

    Well he'll not be losing any sleep worrying about Armstrong taking his place any time soon. :smiley-laughing002:

    What a goal today. Still not convinced he is fully fit again after his knock the other week.

    That goal was a * peach though.

    Will be very important come Thursday, that pace would frighten You Sayin? Bolt.
