    Aye, there was a few occasions he got up well for the ball. Bit of a short * but seems to have a good leap on him.

    One of those players you just love to watch, very entertaining. No surprises he has become a fans favourite.

    He’s only started once in the last four games. It’s beyond a joke, really.

    Should be starting every game for us right now.

    He has to start in a 352 for me.

    His pace just terrifies defenders.

    Aye I'd start him every week as wing back over Forrest..

    This league cannot handle him. It's been proven..

    Said it before, I'll say it again. He'd always start for me, regardless of formation.

    He would be one of the first names on the team sheet for me, especially when we are playing 3 at the back.

    No one can handle his pace and directness.

    Forrest has been off it for a while now. Scored a good goal tonight but think he would benefit from some time out just now.

    We desperately need the left side sorted though ASAP. Hopefully we can get Doughty in soon. Doughty and Frimpong in the wing back roles looks like it would cause some serious damage.

    As what though? He's not in the 3 for sure. In the 5 he's competing with Forrest who over the last 9 years has nailed that spot. He's a great talent but not sure the current system helps him although sure he will get game time through rotation if he is now a RWB and not a RB.

    RWB.

    He’s far more suited and more of a threat there than James Forrest is.

    He’s absolutely perfect for the RWB role in a 352. Forrest isn’t and in no universe has nailed that spot because 99 times out of 100 he plays as a right winger.

    And never mind the last 9 years. Has nothing to do with what’s happening right now. Players should be selected based on form. In that case, Frimpong deserves to start ahead of Forrest.

    Not seeing that happen. What makes you think it will? Frimpong was excellent last season at RB but Forrest has established that position as his own.

    He’s gonna be 20 in December. Still so young but he will want to be a regular or he might look elsewhere, he knows he’s good enough. He should be starting, the boy is a nightmare for any defence.

    Forrest has established RWB as his own? He’s barely played there and Frimpong has been better at the position than him.

    I think it will happen because Frimpong is more suited to the position and at the moment more consistent than Forrest is.

    Frimpong is quicker, better at taking a man on and better defensively.

    Forrest is more suited to RW, for me anyway.

    Frimpong should be starting every game and keep Forrest on the left until we get a new left back in who can challenge.
