handling

**frazeHFC** · 29-07-2014 10:31 AM

He was brilliant on Saturday. Really hope he gets a lot of chances this season. Has a bit of skill and composure about him, be good seeing him just behind the striker more often.

Well said Doddie You have saved me posting a long rant We all have opinions but some Hibs fans need to take a look at themselves All thats left to say is DH now has a coach who believes in him To the poster questioning Harris same applies

Both have a chance to prove me wrong and will happily be proven wrong it's all about opinions etc that's why forums are here

***Brightside*** · 29-07-2014 10:35 AM

I look forward to many more threads from you taking about the players that are impressing you.

He must be doing something right in training because every manager he's played under wants to include him in their first team squad even if they don't play him in his favoured position. I think he needs to play up front rather than in midfield or on the wing for us to see the best of him. Remember too that he is only 20. He should get physically stronger in the next few years.

Lets be honest here. Danny has been in and around the first team for a few seasons now and has done very little when he has played to show that there is real talent bubbling under the surface waiting to burst out. I don't see that as dissing a young player, I have seen every game he has played in at ER and at no time has he had a stand out performance where he has made an impact, as starter or sub.

I'm not talking about scoring a hat trick or setting up a couple of goals, I just mean a performance where you walked away saying 'tell you what, Handling didn't deserve to be on the losing side' I'm sorry to say I have no recollection of that ever happening.

If the fans who say that there is a player of the standard we need in Danny Handling are correct it is really time he started showing it, for me he hasn't up till now. I seriously hope this is the season he changes my mind.

Erm ...... He did OK mate, but if that's your idea of brilliant you are easily pleased.

Spot on not like he's the new kid on the block! I hope he turns out be what some people seem see and think

I think this season should be a fresh start or everyone.

From January he has physically developed and is a lot stronger on the ball, keeps possession and can find a pass. I don't no which games you've been too recently.

I'm not sure what his best position is. Could he be a midfielder in waiting? If so, he still might find it a struggle to breakthrough at Hibs, with Stanton and Allan ahead of him for an attacking midfield berth.

**WeeRussell** · 29-07-2014 11:15 AM

Thought he had a good game on Sunday but it would be Danny I'd be looking for Scott Allan to replace - from that starting 11.

Well wouldn't be hearts as am sure that's HMFC but maybe that's bit too much for you to understand

I have no problem understanding that you've started a thread inviting a debate on whether two of the younger members of our squad are good enough to be playimng for Hibs.

Hoping it was going to turn nasty, were you? Get a bit of entertainment?

And of course, if you WERE a closet jambo, you'd be sure to let everyone know by your choice of username, wouldn't you?

I refer you to Jack's thread below.

He's right - you're wrong.

Newly joined the forums and immediately start slagging off two fairly bright young prospects at the club, did you think you were going to get off lightly here.

Slagging off Harris who is highly thought of and also Handling who although divides opinion is still a decent player, to me it looks just like you're having a personal attack on these two young lads, are you annoyed they're better than you and you can't hack it??

Oh great - another in-depth dissection of why one of our younger players isn't good enough and never will be.

He's 20, and for most of his career at ER the first team coaches at the club have been (at least, according to the majority of posters on this forum) incompetent, brainless numpties. I would prefer to say that it's never good for a young player's development when the club he's signed for descends into confusion and turmoil as Hibs have done over the past few years.

The times I've seen him he's appeared to be a player with real potential but in need of coaching and direction which he hasn't been getting.

Alan Stubbs seems to reckon he can make something of Danny, which is why he hasn't released him.

I think Alan should be given the chance to work with the guy, and Danny could do with some genuine support and encouragement from the fans, maybe?

Totally agree.

Seems to have filled out a bit and looks stronger with great potential. Best performance to date. Let's hope he keeps improving and learning under Stubbs. Same applies to young Harris. Give them some encouragement !!!

**Pretty Boy** · 29-07-2014 12:17 PM

Not been overly impressed so far.

But he deserves a clean slate like everyone else now he's working under a proper manager.

Nothing personal but don't think good enough :) i think Cummings Sammy n Forster are good young players as well as young Lewis allan thought Caldwell was better than handling too

I'm not ranting.

Just politely questioning your credentials.

***silverhibee*** · 29-07-2014 01:01 PM

Big season for all the young lads this season coming, time for them to step up and start putting in good shifts every week, it's a tough league they are playing in now, hope they are up for it.

Makes a change from Paul and Lewis underscore does it not??

Hopefully DH will get it together and prove that he can do it at the level required. And consistently.

Caldwell

He scored a winner against Hearts at Tynie so done more than handling has in first team and both came through together and am sure Caldwell was goal machine at under 20s

**SmithyHibee** · 29-07-2014 01:46 PM

Can I change my username?

**~~BOB MARLEYS DUG~~** · 29-07-2014 01:47 PM

Am I right in saying his favoured position is striker?

Has a stinking billy big baws attitude and has quite rightly been punted, average player at best.
