thought he was great when he came on, really showed his football intelligence, lovely runs and link up play and never stopped harassing their defense. Really good option to bring on, but also a great role model for vente and our youth players too.
Not sure if we'll offer him an extension but I'd be tempted to.

He was more than decent. Didn't quite agree with the sub at the time but funnily enough turned out ot make perfect sense.

He was excellent. Probably better suited to playing with a partner though.

Thought he was good when he came on. Knows what he’s doing.

He added some much needed energy - good show for a 37 year old

Got to say I really like ALF, such an intelligent footballer. Was with my daughter at the game who plays as a striker in the girls academy and told her right away watch him, you'll learn lots.
Still has plenty to offer even in his older years, can tell he was a step above this level in his prime.

I've stuck up a lot for Vente but I'd seriously be considering starting ALF in the coming weeks. He won't work as hard as Vente but his movement was top class today.

I’d play Vente against Rangers as we’ll need to run like **** to beat them, especially when they’ll be off the back of Benfica away. I’d be thinking about Alf for the game(s) after as I think he’ll be more of a threat.

The signing ive been most pleasantly surprised with. As long as hes fit id have him as a plan b guy off the bench regularly.

I laugh now when I broke the news he had signed for us and was met by a lot of knee jerk negative comments😂
Far as I can see Alfie is as fit as anyone else despite his age and is till playing well.
I’d start him instead of Vente and definitely take up the option for next season.

Said to my son at the game yesterday that he is a very clever player. Would have loved to have got him 5 years ago

He’s a great option to have as substitute as was big Doidge. I can’t understand for the life of me why we allowed him to leave.
Getting back to Alf, he’s a class act and you can see the intelligence with some of his movement.
I was willing for him to score, there was one passage of play he made great movement in the box only for the ball to get cut back behind him.

I loved Doidge but I don't really see a place for him in this team. Think that move also suited him.

It ALF had played the same amount of minutes as Vente this season I’m confident he’d have at least double his goals.

Balls into the box I could see the big man knocking it on and with Alfs intelligence running onto the knock down to score.
We really don’t have someone with that aerial ability.Last edited by Greensunshine; 03-03-2024 at 03:21 PM.

Total respect to Doidge but his time at Hibs was over.

Maybe he wasn’t happy with that, I have know idea. I just really liked the big guy and what he brought to the team.
