    He’s just class.

    Our best midfielder imo.

    That is quite something! Couple of passes I can’t even mind. Also is that this season alone?

    He has been some buy for £1.4m or so. I wouldn’t mind seeing him pushed on into the role our most advanced CM (O’Riley) just now plays but unless we put Mooy in the Hatate role or possibly Iwata and McGregor as the other two then it’s hard to see that happening.

    With the benefit of hindsight and the fact Turnbull was suspended probably didn’t help this in terms of options but see if Abada and Jota were not capable of starting due to illness and with Haksabanovic being injured, I wouldn’t have minded putting Mooy into the midfield and playing Hatate technically as the right winger but almost in the way McGregor used to play left winger in Rodgers system at times to give us an extra midfielder.

    Hatate was very good in an attacking sense as a right back and has played that position in the Japanese Olympic team he mainly played there. I am suggesting play him there all the time but in games against certain opponents in the circumstances we faced it may have been better than Forrest out there.

    He's not even near his peak yet. Japanese players tend to really take care of themselves and have a good longevity so wouldn't be surprised if he really comes into his own at 28 or 29 and is still capable of bossing midfields well into his 30's.
