Pundit Chris Sutton fires a brutal message at Celtic Manager Brendan Rodgers on how he treats 32-year-old winger James Forrest in the club
Forrest, a winger for Celtic, hasn’t played much this season. He’s only started two games in all competitions.
But when he has played, he has shown that he can be counted on by hitting four goals and setting up another.
Manager Brendan Rodgers thought Forrest changed the game in last weekend’s Scottish Cup semi-final. With Daizen Maeda still out with an injury for tomorrow’s trip to Dundee, Forrest could still make a difference again.
On the other hand, Chris Sutton is confused by how the boss treats the 32-year-old. Rodgers has said that Forrest is his best player, but the amount of time he has played hasn’t shown that to be true.
During the game last week at Hampden, he made a big impact from the bench, and he said, “You would think he has a big part to play in the coming weeks.”
“But it’s hard to tell. Rodgers said that Forrest was his best wide receiver this season, but he didn’t play him for weeks.
“I know he’s getting old, but he’s only 32 years old, not 52.” Celtic fans don’t give Forrest enough credit, but if he gets his chance in the last few games, he’s already shown that he can play in the big games.
The Scotland player has shown over the years that he can be counted on. Some of the most important goals he has scored for his team have come in Europe, cup games, derbies, and the league.
Forrest has been through a lot, but he has had to change his game because he is getting older and because he used to be a left for speed.
His legs might not be strong enough for him to play for 90 minutes, or even to start the game.
Even so, he is still a reliable choice who can enter a game at certain points and have a huge effect on it, as happened last Saturday at Hampden.
