Move on.
Both him and JN are similar, I rate the latter more
All season, and perhaps even much of the prior season we've lacked any creativity/drive in central midfield and unfortunately it's because these two and/or the dynamics of them don't work together - hence why we've become a 1 dimensional team that plays down the wings
I find both of them far too safe and that in itself - the similarities in their style - is what I think has been stifling our central midfield
Nice guy, but not going to take this club to the next level

JDH, Newell and Campbell are all pretty much the same when you look at their impact on matches.
Drop deep and play easy 5 yard passes almost all match.
Pointless possession is their speciality.

This is part of the problem that Maloney went on about. Squad is poor and needs overhaul. We signed and kept players who are all the same.

Campbell should go out on loan and we should only start with one of JDH or Newell. The other can be a useful squad player.

Too many similar players in the squad in the midfield, loaning out a couple maybe a option

Campbell should go to the Championship on a season loan to a team where he would be a first start and then see if he can consistently deserve the shirt. There might be a player in there.

The quality and level of midfield player we need at Hibs is just not at Easter Rd with the possible exception of McGinnes if he ever plays for us again.
Clear them out and bring in the quality we need and start to build a team.

Don’t ya just love all this ‘throw everyone out and bring lots of new players in’ nonsense.
When is the last time we did that and it brought about an improvement?
It’s the era of the XBOX Football Manager fantasists

Any new manager will struggle to get much out of them, without some real investment.

I agree we've got too many similar players. Stevenson adds something to the midfield when he plays, then I think there's room for either JDH or Newell, then AN Other. Wouldn't rule out Henderson as the AN Other.
Midfield needs work though, doesn't work as a unit.
You could argue that it worked today. Kept tight enough, didn't give anything away. And then it was a run beyond the strikers from Henderson that led to the goal. I think Gray should be happy that he managed to fashion a win from what he had to work with.
Lots of work needed from middle to front with this squad.

Thought he was really good first few games but he's not for me. I get players have roles and jobs to do in a midfield, but right now he doesn't do anything at all well.
Can't see us being able to offload him, but wouldn't be disappointed if we did.
Seems like a lovely boy, but unfortunately not good enough.

Since then, he did well at the Easter Road derby beside Newell and had the good game when he scored a couple.
Other than that, it's been pretty forgettable from him since about the start of October.
Not sure whether we try to recreate what we had at the start of the season or make more cutting changes.
It hasn't worked for much of the season but I don't think I can go as far as to say I don't rate him as I think he's got something.

I want him to do well, just as I want any player who plays for Hibs to do well, whether it's JDH, Wright, Scott, Campbell anyone! I just don't see how he can go from the level of performances he's putting in to being an integral part of the first team.

He is our worst performer who is a regular starter imo. The goals vs County possibly got the critics off his back for a while but he doesn’t add anything to our team. Not a good tackler, passer or runner. Invisible.

As so often happens with new players after a few games when we are winning, some people completely overestimated JDH's performances at the start of his Hibs career, OTT claims of him being a "baller" etc. Then as the team's performances dipped, some people started to unfairly claim he was terrible.
Barring his low point ( error at home to St Mirren) and his high point ( 2 worldies against Ross County) I think he's largely been fine, putting in solid if unspectacular performances most weeks.
He is the type of guy, a bit like Stevenson, that will rarely let the team down - If he has decent players around him he can be a fairly important part of a good team IMO. If he doesn't have quality around them then he isn't good enough on his own to make things happen.Last edited by LaMotta; 23-04-2022 at 04:53 PM.

I’d look to upgrade all 3 of JDH, Newell & Campbell, with a different blend of midfielders, and have all 3 as back up. Wouldn’t lose any sleep if any of them moved on though.

Gogic is better. Got a really harsh time of it but he was consistently part of teams that were winning last season even coming up with goals. St Mirren also missed him big time today.
