Ange Postecoglou makes delightful Mikey Johnston prediction after Celtic cameos

Originally published at: Ange Postecoglou makes Mikey Johnston prediction after Celtic win; it bodes very well

Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou is excited to have Mikey Johnston back in his squad and has tipped him to make a “huge impact” moving forward. Johnston has made cameos in two successive matches against Ferencvaros and St Johnstone, impressing on each occasion. The winger got a full half an hour of action against the Perth…

What I can gather from that is both Mikey and Jamesie are second choice behind Jota and Abada :man_shrugging:t2:
I think Ange is in for a pleasant surprise/shock when he sees just how good Forrest is as a wide man and also in a defensive sense which btw Abada is severely lacking in.

Forrest is hot and cold and always has been.
Johnston is too injury prone to threaten a full time spot in the side.

That myth about Forrest been well put to bed over the past few years.
94 goals from the wing and also a terrific assists record to accompany them combined with his ability to also defend makes him the complete article as a wide man.
I would be surprised if he isn’t t a regular starter once he gets back up to speed.
