Emerson Hyndman

[we are hibs]

Thought it deserved it's own thread
Sky reporting hibs are in talks with Bournemouth about a loan deal. Was at the huns. Midfielder
Can't really recall him tbh

[hibee]

Never heard of him either.

[weecounty hibby]

I thought he was decent for them. Would be a good addition to the squad

[Callum_62]

He was good at rangers

Goalscoring midfielder, comfortable in the ball from memory

We've used the loan system well. It's responsible for us bringing in Efe, Rocky, Boyle and Dylan permanently and you can't downplay the contribution of a few others on top of that.

As long as these guys come and give their all for us I really don't care if they are on loan or permanent. The loan system is in place to be utilised.

[hibees 7062]

He was selected as Rangers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rangers_F.C.)
Young Player of the Year for 2016–17 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016%E2%80%9317_Rangers_F.C._season)
, despite only joining the club in January

[B.H.F.C]

I remember him being a decent player. Certainly not going to charge about all over the place like McGinn. But we’re not going to replace him like for like so I think we could do worse.

[blackpoolhibs]

Perhaps matey, although i did think Scott Allan upped his effort last season, and worked a lot harder than i remembered him.

Maybe the Lennon factor?

But if they add quality this season like Allan and Barker did last year then what’s the problem?

Enjoy them whilst they’re here then replace next summer.

We then get to enjoy another awesome transfer window!

[Hermit Crab]

Didn't realise he was a Sherman Tank, hopefully the wonderful city of Edinburgh appeals to him.

Possibly. Fair chance sjm not being sold to Celtc will scupper Allan coming to us. Thems the breaks.

No doubt about it. He was shattered after 70 odd minutes a few times last season which wasn't always the case 1st time around. I daresay his medical condition plays a part in that but his work rate was also noticeably better.

[Not In The Know]

id rather have a good loan player for a year (that we probably couldnt afford to buy) than an average player bought for 2-3 years

[Hermit Crab]

I'm not so sure, he's pretty much surplus there and we have the money to offer him deal?

[Heisenberg]

Exactly. Loans are extremely common these days and they will only become more frequent as transfer fees increase.

Hyndman sounds kind of similar to Allan.

Changed days to when it was Thornhill, Doherty, Paulsson etc etc.

Ug, I feel sick.

[Just Jimmy]

Flo was a loan. Jamie Mac will likely be another loan that becomes a cut price permanent deal.

I'm fine with it if they add to the team and they bridge a gap. either til we sign them longer term or until we get our number one target.

I trust Lennon. what we're dealing with these days is a different level of transfer and it's miles above most other Scottish clubs too. including Aberdeen.

[hibbytam]

He was the American lad that was at Rangers for half a season. I seem to remember him being quite good there, but that was the year we didn't play Rangers, so didn't see him in the flesh. Quick look on wiki, he got 4 goals in 13 games, and won their young player of the year.

Every summer is going to be the same. We have a decent steady core of a team, but around that there's always going to be players out of contract, or returning to their parent clubs.

I'd be more worried if we had McGinn going, and there not being any sign of a replacement any time soon. Or a last minute 'surprise' signing.

[JimBHibees]

This is what folk said in January as well, and now we have Kamberi here permanently and Jamie Mac back for another year, we also have a like for like replacement for barker.

The market we are in, the best players aren't always ones you can sign permanently. I'd rather we got a better player on loan for a year than signed someone duff on a 3 year deal.

[allezsauzee]

Totally disagree, i think it makes certain players available to us that wouldn't be otherwise and in the case of Flo and (hopefully) Jamie Mac, it's like try before you buy! I think this lad looked pretty good for The Rangers and he's a bit older now so hopefully fitter and stronger.

Currently on loan we have Bogdan and MacLaren with Agyepong to come in and potentially Hyndman.

Bogdan is covering Rocky who is injured. Difficult to justify bringing in a goalkeeper of Bogdan's quality permanently.

MacLaren we have a buyout clause

Agyepong is the next in a hopefully continuing relationship with Man City.

Who knows what deal we will do for Hyndman. Might be another buyout option.

And as pointed out numerous loans have become permanent.

I have no problems with loan players coming in.

SA could attempt to force a move with a transfer request though.

Would much sooner have loan players chosen by Lennon than 80% of the permanents that most recent Hibs managers have invested heavily in recent years. Gives us access to players we probably cannot afford (fee and wages), who would not have considered coming to Hibs on a perm deal, and a chance to see them in action in the SPFL.

[frazeHFC]

Where were the ITK posters on this one, completely out of nowhere 🙄 would be a good signing. Not a patch on Mcginn at what he does but still good.

I have a feeling this will be instead of Allan. If it isn’t we will have such a weak midfield in terms of putting a tackle in and tracking back...McGinn’s graft needs replaced and Hyndman isn’t the answer to that.

Hyndman looked like a decent player at Rangers and was quite good with free kicks as well, no?

Definitely a year loan to wait for Allan I think.

I understand that, my point of weird/poor rules is that this sort of thing should be blocked. I agree with teams having arrangements over loans and partnerships between clubs but I don't agree with clubs bankrolled by rich consortiums/individuals signing every talented player under the sun and then loaning them out. Something wrong with Chelsea having 38 players out on loan last season...

Should be a rule on the number of players you can loan and loan out as well. Nevermind looking at the visa situation.

Negotiate contract with Allan and then say to Celtic "he's coming to us in 6 months, how about we sort a deal for him to come to us now?". If they are then awkward due to McGinn saga then we wait, just as they said they'd wait for McGinn. Only difference is McGinn is a superstar. Allan is a benchwarmer or a decent player unless he is with Hibs.

He's played approximately 50 games in the last 3 years, I think he's done a fair amount of sitting on benches even with the loan spells added in. I stand by the view that it's only ever clicked for Allan at Hibs and Celtic won't care too much about Allan's career unless it benefits them. Aberdeen may be interested but Aberdeen's current style of play won't suit Allan, they play Cosgrove up front, not many darting runs behind the defence there!

Hyndman is good enough for me after all he is now a player for Hibs! Hopefully we'll enjoy him for 6months and see what the situation is then.

Are there no affordable permanent transfers out there that would improve the team?Yeah it's concerning me also...too many loans for my liking...I don't mind the likes of Kamberi and Jamie Mac where we have fees agreed but not sure about a 6 month loan tbh

Its hardly too many? A keeper who im quite sure is back up whilst Marciano was injured. Jamie Mac who apparently we have agreed a deal with after his loan.....so that leaves a young winger who prob wont play week in week out and a midfielder? Hardly too many. Once the season starts i would wager 3 at the most playing every week(one being mclaren).

Edit - we had Kamberi, mclaren, allan and barker for the 2nd half of the season.....same number as now.

Yeh i get that but we might get him for another 6 after that? Or Allan might be available on a pre contract and we can offer Tic a token amount? Who knows? But as long as we are able to put a good team out then thats the main thing.

Maybe 6 months was the best we could get?

Maybe he’ll extend the loan in Jan?

Maybe he’ll be crap and we will be glad it’s only 6 months?

Maybe we’ll get a replacement in Jan that’s as good as the replacement strike force we got last Jan?


Why stress about it too much? Sounds like we have picked up a handy player that will do us a job...we have a bit of a gap in the midfield now and it’s not gonna be possible to replace SJM like for like so we’ve quickly added another option.

Wow …. just shows you what a wad of dodgy Russian cash and a massive TV deal can do for your ego eh? A club nobody in England, not to mention the town they come from, gave a rats ass about 7 years ago, and from a town more famous for arthritis, lumbago, false teeth, tartan rugs and deck chairs than football calling us a wee club. Apart from one poster their knowledge of Scottish football let alone Hibs and how we play is poor even for English EPL fanboys. They need to take a look at the Villa forum to see how fans of a big club conduct themselves, even though they didn't know a lot about John McGinn they seemed wiling to give him a chance on reports they had heard and at least a basic knowledge of what sort of a club Hibs are.

Absolutely pathetic. I wonder if after playing in front of 50,000 at Ibroke for a season and then 18,000 at Easter Road for 6 months young Emerson will look forward to playing in front of 9000 fans every week, especially ones who 90% of will crawl back into the holes the came out of the second things go tits up …. no disrespect to the few hundred who saved the club back in the day .. true fans to be respected for sure.

This is an interesting article from the Guardian. If you look at clubs like Bournemouth, Brighton and a few others, their turnover from ticket sales and non TV money isn't that much different from Hibs, Hearts and Aberdeen, given they will charge premium prices for seats and hospitality. The real difference is the TV money, which for Bournemouth is £124 million and the other smaller clubs around £100 million.


They would also only be the 6th best supported club in the SPFL. Celtic, The Rangers, Hibs, Hearts and Aberdeen all get bigger crowds than them. Despite this, they've just signed a player for £50+ million. It goes to show how the TV money has distorted competition, not just in the UK but across Europe.

[Diclonius]

UEFA app has Hyndman as #20.

[Hibbyradge]

I find the 6 months a bit strange and that also another attacking midfielder

Bournemouth might need him back. It's not strange at all.

If they don't, we might get him for a further 6 months.

If we want him.

[jacomo]

Few arrogant comments from their fans on that page considering we have more season ticket holders than their sraduim holds.Bournemouth gets built up as some lovely romantic story of achievement coming through the league's when in reality they are backed by a rich Russian and got fined for breaching fair play rules in league 1 and 2. Without big financial backing they aren't anything more than a league 1 team at best.


:agree:

Harsh but fair. I certainly won’t take any lectures from Bournemouth fans.

Mind you, knowing the EPL, half the people on their forum will be blowhards from anywhere but Bournemouth. Sheep who have just adopted a top level club. Some of them probably used to support Portsmouth.

Yeah, Bournemouth are covering their backs just in case they need him back in January.
If he does well we will ask to keep him for the season.
Hyndman has quality and knows what Scottish football is about.
He is a great signing for us. Delighted.
Another great example of us not signing crap players anymore, on the off chance they might do ok.

Just one more midfielder required to bring us back to parity with how we ended last season.
A box to box running , tackling, ball recovery guy required to replace McGinn.
Within our price range are Mulumbu and the guy at Dundee via Finland.

:flag:

[Sylar]

Happy to be corrected, but quite sure he was only a 6 month loan deal when he was at Ibrox last year?

He's a decent acquisition - very comfortable on the ball - can find a pass, and has a pretty good shot on him. Only issue when he was at The Rangers' was how easily he could be muscled off of the ball.

Feel sick for venturing onto a Rangers Forum, but needs must:

“Hibs [sic] in talks to sign Emmerson Hyndman on loan. A good signing for them if that goes through.”

“I would've taken him back, he would be brilliant in this team.”

“Very good signing for them tbf”

“I actually liked Hyndman, quite direct and chipped in with some good goals.”

“Was good until Pedro came in”

“I think he'll do quite well at hibs if he goes there tbh”

“Hyndman is some signing for Hibs tbh.

I wasn’t as big a fan of him as others were when he was here but it would have been interesting to have seen him back here and in a stronger team.

He would have been worth considering as an option for the attacking midfielder we are lacking IMO.”

That’s about right. The TV money trickles through the Enlgish leagues and as always with ready cheap money, the impact is inflationary. We need to be developing and selling players into this inflated market while it lasts.

For anyone interested American economist Paul Krugman produced a nice explanation of the impact of money supply on behaviour and prices based on a baby sitting co-op in Washington.

No doubt about it. He was shattered after 70 odd minutes a few times last season which wasn't always the case 1st time around. I daresay his medical condition plays a part in that but his work rate was also noticeably better.

He did look out on his feet late on in games for Rangers, no-one likes a burst Hyndman.

I was interested when we signed Hyndman given his parent club.

I have a very strong connection to a current first teamer at Bournemouth and it represents about the last 'in the know' source I have these days.

Anyway, I didn't get any advance notice of us signing him but I asked about him once he'd signed.

This is the response I got.

'Outstanding technical player but more important than that, superb attitude.

He's very highly rated here and if he applies himself at Hibs like he does here, he's destined for big things.

I expect him to be a revelation for you lot.'

Predominantly right. Left is decent though.

[Kato]

Maybe a bit cautious, perhaps rightly so. We restricted them to very few shots which were mostly blocked but they were very slick and clever in and around our box. Noticed Louie and Gray didn't bomb forward on certain occasions as they were quick and snappy in possession. In with a shout though as we will make chances over there. Would like to see Boyle test their left side a bit more as they toiled on the few occasions he went out there.

[Smartie]

Lennon got it right imo. It was a close game, and will be a close game over there again. We carry a threat of our own on the break, and if we score over there then they will be in a world of trouble.

Agree a very difficult balance to be set. Go for it in last ten and lose a goal and the tie would have possibly been over with a monumental turnaround required. As it is we are still in the tie and have a decent chance especially if we nick the first goal like we did in Greece. They look good and would assume will be very dangerous at home however we still definitely have a chance given the importance of an away goal.

Admittedly they weren't what I thought they would be but you could see they had a bit of quality in that they moved the ball quickly and their movement off the ball was nice. If we opened up to go for it I definitely could have just as easily seen us conceding. But I think we can do it next week and the clean sheet increases our chances.

They'll no doubt come away from last night annoyed they didn't go back with at least an away goal

It’s also why Neil didn’t make too many changes in the second half

[wookie70]

It’s also why Neil didn’t make too many changes in the second half

Did he say that. I thought Lennon was very late, not unusual for him, in making changes. Kamberi hardly did a thing all night and Shaw is a good player. Slivka was burst after an hour and Marv was dead on his feet after about 70 minutes. The 0-0 is a decent result but I thought we looked like we had a decent advantage in the second half and some more energy might have tipped the balance. I don't think there was much risk in changing Kamberi for Shaw far earlier and Slivka for Hyndman seemed a fairly easy swap too given how out of the game Slivka was after an hour.

We won't know until after the second leg if earlier changes would have been worthwhile and even then it is impossible to know if changes would have led to goals. I think everyone gets too caught up with away goals. A win is always better than a draw.

Great time to be a hibby. One good performance away from a Europa league group stage shootout with D Minsk.Still think we could do with Mr Allan to fill the SJM void but we still have a chance of reaching the group stage. Never thought i’d see that.
