Hibs are a very good team.
If Hibs improve their finishing we are going to murder quite a few teams in the league.
Niall McGinn and Stevie May are finished.
Aberdeen are a big physical team who are hard to beat but apart from Shinnie they have mostly ordinary players.
Hibs will finish above Aberdeen in the league.

If we can finish above Kilmarnock in the league, we’ll be finishing above Aberdeen.

Shame we’re out of the League Cup, but Im confident we’ll do well this season. Get our strikers fit, and we will murder teams. You honestly never know with the league, but I hope we’re targeting the late stages of the Scottish at least.

Another observation. Shaw may well have blown his chances tonight. Could have had a hatrick in normal time.

Fair summary for me...
An observation I would add is that Lennon/Parker almost always get their tactics and formations spot on, only a handful of exceptions...start of game and changes during it...Their level of knowledge and experience shines through . As good a managerial team as we have had imo.

Some folk will take any situation to be a sign of why Shaw "isn't up to it" I guess.....

Well I mean I'm not but you carry on thinking you know best. What I said was it's strange that a striker isn't taking a penalty within the first 5. Someone who is more used to scoring goals than Lewis Stevenson who took one before him. Tells you a lot about his confidence if he doesn't fancy his chances of an open goal from 12 yards out.

It’s not really the done thing to criticize young players that have came through the system but I fully expect Shaw to be playing at a lower level in a couple of years time.
The club obviously took the decision that we didn’t need another striker because Ollie has broken through. If he was the new signing we were all after we’d be very disappointed.

Milligan, Hydeman and Ambrose played very well. Best I've seen of all these three.
Kamberi is a class act until he tired at the end.
Shaw, think we're asking too much for him to start big games such as this. He would have been better coming on for Kamberi.
Hanlon and Porteous strolled it at the back. Bogdan looked solid.
Aberdeen - they typified everything that's wrong with Scottish football. Zero attempt to play football, big physical team that got very lucky.
Hibs fan - well done to those who attended. It was colder than I expected.
Referee; after an initial spate of bookings I think he bottled it. He could easily have booked four or five more players having set the standard with a couple of soft bookings. How Shinnie never got booked is baffling.

Shaw had one of those nights tonight but that’s not the end of the world, very strange that he or the management team didn’t think the only striker left on the pitch was a good choice for a penalty though. Especially since the one he did take was calm and well finished.

Maybe Shaw doesn't volunteer.
Maybe they had a running order before the game - who knows.
What we do know - just in terms of the penalties is when it did come to Shaw's turn he scored a very good pen under big pressure

1 , The midfield isnt that lightweight after all
2 , Efe is class and Hyndman can play
3 , Aberdeen aint great
4 , Mallan is like Dylan McGeough with a better shot and Set Pieces
5 , We create alot of chances but miss way too many

Mallan did very well imo. I think there is more he can do when we don’t have the ball. He doesn’t have the positional and defensive nous of Dylan (but does carry much more of a goal threat).
