    Time to Ibring in some youth

    We had a fair amount of youth playing in the league cup at the start of the season, who, while against lower league teams, looked to hold their own... I think some of the first 11 need a kick up the backside and to sit out and watch hungry young players taking their opportunities. Regular starts for the likes of Porteus and Murray, among others.

    Thoughts?

    Are they good enough yet though? I honestly have no idea but I’d have e Porteous before Whitty that’s for sure.

    Agreed however Hibs don't actually have that many young players who are part of the first team squad however I personally thought every player was poor today......legs also looked very heavy so we need to rotate the squad more ........definitely include more game time for the likes of Murray, Porteous, Slivka and Shaw etc

    If our youngsters where good enough they’d have been in already.. let’s not have knee jerk reactions.. our next 3 games before the winter break are massive now.. 7 points and we can forget all about this week.

    I’m surprised at the lack of game time Fraser Murray has had

    Agree . In the first team games I've seen him play he's been excellent

    It is a mystery to me why Fraser Murray hasn't been more involved. He looks like the exact type of player we need. A midfielder who gets into the box and can finish

    Porteous has to.be a better option than either Ambrise or an unfit Whittaker at right back.
