CHRIS SUTTON has had an inadvertent pop at Kris Commons after the question was put to him about James Forrest not being able to hack it in the England Premier League.

Forrest’s former teammate Kris Commons told BBC this week he didn’t fancy James to be good enough to play for a Premier League side and called the midfielder ‘too inconsistent’ for down south.

Well, Chris Sutton is having absolutely none of it and called the claim ‘insulting’ and ‘out of order’.

Speaking with the BT Sports panel before Celtic’s victory over Hamilton today, the former Celtic star did not hold back at all!

“Was that a joke? He couldn’t play in the Premier league?

“James Forrest is every bit as good as Ryan Fraser if not better.

“It’s insulting, I’m sick of it.

“How many players do you want me to name in the Premier League that he’s better than?

“Antonio, Redmond, I could go on all day, it’s insulting.”

Forrest has been on a rich vain o form but had a quieter day at Hamilton as Celtic ran out comfortable winners.

There was a lot of fan outrage at Kris Commons for his take on James Forrest. Many feel the former Celtic midfielder is trying to make a name for himself with inept and idiotic comments that fall right in line with what you would expect from a Sky Sports pundit.

  4. I hope big sutty put commons in his place regarding jamesy bhoy, What is it with ex-bhoys slagging off our players young James forrest has been through so many injuries during his early days with the Hoops and commons and others who have been with the club know this, James is now giving the club everything now he has put his Injuries well and truly behind him (ffs) he would exercise on his own and stay back in the gym when all others had headed home, James spent excess amount of hours, days and nights trying to get his fitness back and club Management knew this it was a long hard road for this young bhoy, Now he has shown his team mates, management, and supporters just how much he can give to his beloved club, So James wants to stay with Celtic, Yet others are saying he couldn’t cut it with other clubs down in the EPL or The Championship, Absolute bollocks total rubbish, Why would james want to go anywhere else, He is already playing for the club he loves, The supporters and everyone within the Celtic family have taken james to there hearts, He is playing for the greatest club in the world and long may it continue and to those who are slagging James Forrest (ffs) get a life and if you can’t say anything decent about James Forrest, All I can say is go forth and multiply in short sharp jirky movements, James is a bhoy until he hangs up his boots and that is not any time soon, He has still got a future in winning even more silverware and medals for his and our great club, Glasgow Celtic Football Club,
