Stokes

[murray26]

I thought he was a class apart today .. definitely showing signs that he is getting close to his best.. link up play was excellent and very unlucky with a superb taken free kick.. really hope he keeps it up with some huge games coming up soon..

He’s been absolutely excellent so far.

I’m eagerly awaiting the KT article about how good he’s been.

[frazeHFC]

He'll be very keen to impress next week back at Parkhead. Been great since his return!

He was excellent today. Boyle was good too, had a really great first half.

[SirDavidsNapper]

Any doubters have surely had their opinions changed. The guy is a class act.

Agreed 👍 And a wee notable mention for Lewis who I thought had a good game and has surely won his place back.

[Hibernian Verse]

He was great. His footwork on the right hand side of the box in the first class was superb!

just needed a few games under his belt to get match sharpness back

[Hi Heid Yin]

Stokesy is class.
Yes, he struggled to find fitness and consistency last season (Cup final aside) but he is now back to his lethal best.

[Hibeewilly]

Fantastic player. an absolute joy to watch again yesterday. We are so lucky to have him

He needs to focus and not get himself too wound up, which he tends.to do at times...do the talking with his footballing ability, I suspect the nasty b--t--d Brown will try and wind him up with one of his customary over.the ball or late challenges that officials are failing to see this season ....

[Stuart93]

To think we missed out on laffertey and signed stokes instead 🙄

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

He still has a way to go with fitness and sharpness. Real class though.

Can see an inspired Hun skelping cup final type performance on its way 😆

I'm convinced he'll score a couple against the big team

[calumhibee1]

Wasn't there yesterday but he has been superb in recent weeks and his record since returning speaks for itself. Lets keep in mind swell that most forwards outside of last seasons top 4s totals are skewed by the group stages of the league cup (Simon Murray being an example of this) and so a few forwards in Scotland look like they've got a really good strike rate at this moment in time. Stokes didn't play in any of they games and still has 7 goals in 9 games.

Still gutted about that. How many league goals does Lafferty have from open play this season, just out of curiosity?

[Stevie Reid]

40 goals for Hibs now, in a combined total of a season and a half of playing time.

I said when we signed him that it was pretty crazy that we were getting a striker of his pedigree, with his scoring record, and of his age, for free. Not just about his goals though, his link up play is a joy to watch as well.

Given he missed pre-season, he could get even better.

Don’t think that’s right to be fair. We signed big Dave instead of Lafferty.

[Onion]

Signing was a master stroke by Lennon and looks like we're about to see the very best of Stokesy in the coming season. A living cup-winning legend and a class act currently scoring goals for Hibs - these are good times to be a Hibby

Dave and Lafferty are hardly the same sort of player, although both have yet to prove themselves at their respective clubs

They are really. If we signed Lafferty we wouldn’t have been in the market for a big guy.

[CRAZYHIBBY]

I hope we don't end up relying on him a lot this season as murray seems to have went right of the boil

Andy, fair point, and timing wise it looks like this, but one plays short, and the other plays long. Also we were in the market for Moult up to deadline day, as Lennon wanted 4 strikers

Murray has been an inspired goalkeeper/baw hair away from the back of the net for weeks. Nae need.

Lafferty will be on at least twice what big Dave is on (I suspect) so would we still have had enough in the budget to go for stokesy as well ??
