James Forrest

I wouldn't be surprised, but it would obviously be him starting in the knowledge that he's coming off on 50, 60 minutes.

And then you're having to bring on that Sebastian Taneke sub or the James Forrest sub.

And now, what was your other Jota coming into the game against tired defenders or Jota starting the game? and you're at the risk that you're not 2-3 goals ahead by that point I think I would be more comfortable with Jota coming on as a sub and sacrificing that left wing spot and then starting someone like James Forrester like Sebastian Tunechti and listen if I know Tunechti was not great in his past couple of appearances but if you can re-replicate what he did at Fir Park just after the international break in a game like this against Ipswich it could be quite a similar game to be honest linking well with Kieran Tierney on the left hand side then it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world but he's just too inconsistent

Well, I mean, Lewis, you advised a different career change for him last week.

So how would you feel about Tenetti coming into the team?

and it

really just fizzled out substitutions made little to no impact in the game Oliver Sorensen James Forrest Tonekti Kasper Hu came on as well and it was of no real avail Celtic are now second bottom of the Europa League.

They're only above Arata Mania on the table.

When you look at this, this club's fall from grace in Europe, it really is stark.

Yeah, and Oliver Sorensen didn't do much, gave away a foul or two.

Kasper Hu barely touched the ball.

James Forrest, at 34, 35 years of age, was asked to really take the ball from Kieran Tierney in that left-sided position in Celtic's own third and try and drag the team up the park the same way Sam was trying to do.

He just couldn't do it.

And then the rest of the bench, there was a few youth players on the bench who have never played before.

The obligatory James Forrest cameo, again, fair play to James Forrest for his career, but it's 2026.

Tenechte, again, if you're turning to him in the last 10 minutes of a game, it feels like a struggle.

There was nothing on that bench.

I don't think it was very difficult for Ferencváros, I don't think Celtic made it very difficult for Celta Vigo either in the game.

And there are just so many frustrations again that are rearing their head despite the nature of Sunday's win.

Yeah, and Oliver Sorensen didn't do much, gave away a foul or two.

Similarly, Sebastian Ternetti comes on and we all know his inconsistencies.

And then the rest of the bench, there was a few youth players on the bench who have never played.

The obligatory James Forrest cameo, again, fair play to James Forrest for his career, but it's 2026.

What do they fucking do? You should be beating all these teams, and you should be beating them comfortably.

But the fact we're in October... it's not just the getting beat that's annoying it's the how clueless we look and it is just throwing shite at the wall with the subs and holding certain sticks like Kasper who what chance does he go if he's coming on and then as opposed to working with Duran and Hassan he's got James Forrest and Tanecki like you're not giving the guy any chance his confidence must be getting fucking Just absolutely flattened every time.

Don't get me wrong, he's not been good enough.

That's clear, but I don't think we're giving him all the help we can.

It's such a wide gap and it's so easy to exploit and that's why we keep conceding so many chances.

The second goal and all, the fucking substitutions are so bad.

so fucking bad and it happens continually I think it was the 60th minute James Forrest comes on Osmond obviously getting half injured right now I'm not going to sit and hammer James Forrest here because we know he shouldn't he shouldn't be in this position where he's coming off the bench but see if you watch their second goal The ball comes out to the edge of the box and he should be one of the freshest people.

In fact, he should be the freshest person in the Celtic team.

Get the, get the 35-year-old on with a stacked load of medals to see if he can save the day.

That's James Forrest.

This goes back to Patsy's point earlier about the, about Celtic domestically.

You know, Hassan can drop a runner against St Mirren or Kilmarnock and not get punished.
