    I thought he played well today. He’s starting to back himself more when taking players on and is no longer hiding so much.

    It nought he was very good today. No idea what some on here were watching but I'm sure most Hibs fans in the ground agreed he played well with the ovation he got when subbed. He will be vital on Wednesday night

    Giving him dogs abuse today, Thought he was a wasted jersey and wantedhim off the park..... and then he did that!!

    I suppose that’s what we will get with the boy, obviously the quality is there if the commitment was there he wouldn’t be anywhere near Hibs
    Why were you giving him dogs abuse? Were you hoping that might improve his performance?

    That’s exactly the reason and looked like it worked, I will take an assist on the assist.

    Going by this thread I'd wondered if it was just me who had thought he'd had a good game today.

    He was excellent and causes a lot of problems when he starts running at defences.

    He's not perfect, he had a few bad touches and sometimes takes the wrong option. He frustrates me a bit in that he seems to need the ball before he starts moving - sometimes he needs to move better in anticipation of getting the ball.

    But I thought he was very good overall.

    He'll go back to City a better player for having been with us. He looks to me like he just needs to be playing games to improve, which is what he is doing - playing regularly and improving.

    One minute the boy oozes class, the next he seems to switch off or hide.

    We've had outstanding moments from him, especially the The Rangers game. However, there are times when I think he's a waste of a jersey - like today or the Celtic game but then he creates chances.

    I can see why some think he's class and why others do not.

    Serious question - is he any better or worse than Gary Mackay Steven at Aberdeen?

    GMS (27) has found his level - he's playing in a good Aberdeen team, will probably earn a few Scotland caps. But that's his limit. Maybe a Championship team might take a chance on him!

    How far will Brandon (21) go in the game?

    Smartie, thought it was his best all round 90 mins. For me he’s been a 45!min player, but today he gave us an excellent 2nd half. Needs to add goals to his game though

    Unfortunatly I don't think Wednesday night's tattie field will suit his game!!

    He strikes the ball very well. I think once he gets his first (Wednesday) then he will chip in regularly.

    A wee gem. I love watching players like him.

    Inconsistent - yes. Still young - yes.

    That's the way to give the players confidence from the terracing

    Give him dogs abuse until he comes round to your way of thinking

    Bravo, keep it up

    Today barker was one of the few players that actually tried something different. It didn't always come off but you could see he was trying.

    The only problem is when you see him make mistakes, the wrong choice or not even be awake enough for the ball it frustrates you more because you know or think of what could happen if he played to his best.

    I take it the odds on getting this guy back after the season is finished are slim to none?
