It’s possibly even more baffling than the McCarthy deal as I doubt any one of note is sniffing about Forrest right now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably lowered his weekly wage for the security of a long term deal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s not like Johnny Hayes though where he can play further back as his legs go. He’s the sort of player that once his legs have gone he will be done at this level. Add in the intensity that Ange plays to it just doesn’t make any sense giving out a 3 year deal. Edited May 13, 2022 by gannonball 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, seems a head scratcher giving out that length of contract for someone that has probably played less than half the available fixtures in the last couple of seasons. A year extension with an option of another or something like that would've made more sense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massive shame for him if his legs have started to go. With a run of games and some confidence he's a smashing player. He's also great at defending from the front (his defensive attributes have been continuously underrated) so should be good for Angeball. I wonder if the doctors/physios are confident of him having a full recovery and getting back to his best, or it could simply be as a squad player in the anticipation of a longer European campaign. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheaper than a new signing and probably isn't going to complain about being a squad player though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to be realistic here. Celtic are 29 points and 52 GD better off than the 3rd place team. It’s unlikely moving forward with the poor quality of other teams that Celtic or indeed Rangers will lose many game outside of games versus each other and in Europe. Ange will know that guys like Forrest, Ralston, Taylor, Welsh and Turnbull won’t be in his starting 11 in Europe however they are adequate to rotate in and still win the majority of league games. I’m not a massive Forrest fan but I do see the managers logic here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDoddyKane Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 We probably need to keep some experienced players in the squad, its not a bad idea for the next 1,2 seasons, 3 is probably for loyalty 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thus, while pleasing if your team finishes top of the pile, it is really no miraculous acheivement brought about by managerial superpowers. Now, roll over Grangemouth Brian and tell Tom English the news ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
