    I'm starting to agree.

    Bar 45 minutes against Eibar he has been rank rotten.

    Disappointing.

    He's probably the most predictable player in our squad.

    When the match started, I was keen to see how he did considering recent criticism of him. He did ok at the start (tried to link play up and got a shot on target) of the match but as the match went on, became more and more anonymous.

    Did absolutely nothing to benefit the team outside the first 15-20 minutes.

    Lazy little *. Only player who thinks its ok to stand still when he loses the ball. Which he does, constantly. Just about every player , especially the front four. Hunt the ball, track back. Apart from him of course.

    Aye your right. One thing that * me right off about him is when he falls on his * (which is quitr often) he just sits there. Look at GMS today. Fouled to * gets up trys to stay on his feet and keeps going. Forrest could do well to learn a thing or two from him

    Forrest was good in his first couple of seasons, when opposition players didn't know what to expect from him.

    Everyone in the league is wise to him now. He's not good enough for Europe either.

    Basically, he adds the square root of * all to our squad.

    Get rid of Forrest, get rid of Derk, free up a lot of wages and bring in a proper winger.

    Don't think he should be starting if we have Armstrong, GMS and Johansen available to play behind the striker, doesn't do anything, always trys to cut in on his left for some reason.

    So dissapointed with him these days, I've personally stuck up for him when my mates were slating him but I just can't justify it anymore.

    Injuries have ruined him IMO :54:

    Said the other night after Qarabag that his time here is up. He isn't good enough.

    The most anonymous game I have ever seen from him today, wasn't involved for about 90% of the match.

    Wonder if he goes on this site.
    If he does then i expect him to be posting in the Depression thread after reading all these comments.

    He doesn't take the man on anymore. He used to love a one-on-one. Now, he barely does anything for us.

    Time is up for Forrest. Too many anonymous games.

    I think he is still a good wee player, but i think he has peaked and will never be any better than he is now.Reminds me of Burke for 'them'.
    Seen it before with wingers.

    I really wanted him to succeed because he came through our youth system but it just isn't going to happen for him. His main attribute is pace but instead of using it to get to the byline, 9 out of 10 times he cuts inside onto his non existent left foot or makes a backwards pass.

    I think he will be gone in the January transfer window.

    Same here. Think that's why I always defended him in the hope he came good. I'm the same with any playet who comes through the youth academy because I feel to many fans are to quick to write these players off. Forrests not a young boy anymore, he's 24 ffs!

    As I've said though, I've totally gave up on him. Hopefully Hendo and the young boy Tierney don't turn out to be as equally dissapointing

    Such a poor player. The only player that makes appearances that offers literally nothing to our play. Added to that his attitude stinks. He's a wee jobby.
