James forrest

His shooders always get mentioned, but if you look close it's really his neck thats not right, peoples necks usually come straight up. Forrest sticks forward like a horse





If you block his head/neck in photos his body looks fine but his neck pokes out at an angle.

 

:smiley-laughing002:

There's definitely some sort of problem with Forrest. Pacy players are more prone to hamstring injuries it's true but this guy just has one injury after another. Neil McCann's comments on the subject were interesting and if the Celtic coaching or medical staff were listening then maybe McCann's recommendation is something they should look into.

 

Ive said for years theres something wrong with the way he stands half bent, anyone can see it.

So imo it must be a curved spine, if it wasnt then it would have been corrected. But if its something that cant be then we would never mention it and considering it's never been mentioned that must be what it is.

 

Distraught for him.

One of the fastest players in Britain and has great passing and crossing ability, also got a good shot on him but I highly doubt we'll ever see his potential. He's I think 22/23 now and picks up far too many serious injuries. He's in for 2 weeks, out for 4, back in for 3, out for 5.

Could have been our secret weapon vs Maribor but no more

 

Gutted for the wee man, Celtic really need to get it sorted out. The way it's going he'll be retired by 30 if he's lucky and probably playing for Kilmarnock or some mob like that. Would be a total waste of such a promising career.

 

Devastated for him. He was good midweek and looked decent when he came on today, great work in the build up to his injury.

Shame.

 

Sign his wee brother back to replace him scored 2 the day for Ayr.

 

* heartbreaking for the lad, if he could get fully fit he would be an absolute star for us.

Agree Sean, cracking wee player, such a shame for him.

 

just a hamstring he will be back

 

But it is continuously his hamstring or other strains,I agree with what McCann said today he maybe needs to look at his running style or adapt his training

 

John Clark

 

Maybe it's the boots he wears?

 

Literally just said him in player suggestions.

 

Gutted he's out again but also getting a little * off. I can remember Lenny talking about his body issues after his breakout season. He's said we would need to manage him carefully because his explosiveness causes strains on the Achilles etc.

Pretty much since then the boy has been injured. Why the * have we not done something about this, like a specialist coach or physio? The guy is unplayable when in full flow, could be an absolute asset for years to come. Just don't understand why we're not addressing the issue at its core.

Get well soon James, then get your * to some fancy pants coach for hunchback sprinters. Need you fit.

 

Any news on severity of the injury?

 

Gutted for him, he takes a lot of unjust stick from a section of the support but the wee man is genuinely gutted once again.

Hope its not too serious and maybe just down to some early season tightness.

 

this sucks
I hope your alright kid
the team plays better with James forrest in it

 

Really sorry to see him pick up yet another injury. A fit James Forrest is exactly what we need out wide. Really hope he can get past these constant injuries.
