The Welshman saw Forrest emerge as a Parkhead boy but insists the man can still have a big say in Rangers title race.
Joe Ledley joined Celtic as James Forrest was starting out on his remarkable career of medal winning. Fast forward 14 years and the winger is still having an influence.
With 23 winners’ medals on his CV including 11 titles, Rodgers, who was boss for two of those, knows he has a man who can star within his unit. Ledley said: “Obviously, Jamesy is very experienced now. It is definitely something that’s important and you only have to look back at what he has won for Celtic. It is remarkable.
“Also making sure everyone around the group realises how much this title, and any title, means to the club. Seeing him come on the other day against St Johnstone and scoring is fantastic, but he can play a massive role off the park, too. "What a fantastic career he has had at Celtic. I remember when I signed he was just coming through into the first team and I’m sure it was Lenny who gave him his debut.
With eight games to go, every moment is going to be crucial in the flag fight as the Old Firm go head to head for the honour. With two league derbies in the season remaining, the outcome of the crunch clashes at Ibrox on Sunday week and Celtic Park after the split may be pivotal. Ledley said: “It is very tight and, of course, the games between the two teams look as if they are going to be deciding games that dictate who comes out on top.
