Some Celtic fans have been talking about the contributions of James Forrest this season.
The Hoops star wasn’t involved for the club in their recent Premiership game against Kilmarnock but he did play the whole 90 minutes of their Europa League round-of-32 first-leg game against Copenhagen away from home.
Do you consider Forrest a Celtic legend?
No question about it
Too early to say
A Celtic fan posted about Forrest and the contributions to goals he has made this season, which total an impressive 37. It left many Hoops fans raving and lauding the Scotland international. They also gave their opinion about what he might be worth in the market.
Best winger we’ve had in my lifetime @peterdickson06

Forrest has come through the ranks at Celtic and made his Hoops debut back in the 2009/10 campaign, playing twice in the Premiership.
His current form has been impressive for the Hoops. He has made 43 appearances in all competitions, scoring 16 times and picking up 21 assists for them. In the Premiership, he has made 26 appearances and has contributed to just as many goals.
What do we think?
Forrest’s numbers say it all. He’s played as many as 3,518 minutes of first-team football for the club and has contributed to plenty of goals. Considering he’s risen through the ranks at Parkhead, Celtic fans are right to be very proud of Forrest.
