The former Hoops hitman reckons talk of the Japanese flying machine returning could be Brendan Rodgers mind games.
It's the time of the season for mind games, with bluffs and double bluffs to gain some kind of psychological advantage for the run in.
I know he’s getting on a bit but he’s 32-year-old – not 52. Forrest is under appreciated somewhat by Celtic fans but if he gets his chance in the run in, he’s already proved he is a big-game player. All eyes will be on Maeda and that Old Firm game on May 11 though. That’s vital, because his delivery from the wide areas is very good – and that kind of thing has been a problem for Celtic this season. It’s also why everyone should forget all about the upcoming derby for now. Anyone who thinks this title race is over is kidding themselves on.
Then it’s over to Celtic to see how they cope at Dundee, who performed so well against Rangers and can play with a freedom having made the top-six spot theirs.
