Former St Patrick's Athletic midfielder Chris Forrester has been impressive for his new club Peterborough since joining the club in the summer.

Forrester joined the League One club weeks before manager Dave Robertson left the club. Since his replacement Graham Westley has taken charge, Forrester has featured in every game.

Speaking to BBC Radio Cambridgeshire, Westley compared the 22 year old to a Manchester United midfielder. "There's so much Michael Carrick in him it's scary. You look at the likes of Carrick, an intelligent player, reads the game brilliantly well, owns, keeps and passes the ball in the right way - he's got so many of the characteristics."

The Dubliner has scored twice for The Posh since his arrival in August and Westley is hopeful he can continue his good form. "We've seen what he can do in terms of arriving in the box and scoring goals, we've seen his passing, he's such a composed individual, he's a cracking player."
