    Almost everyone on the PNE forum saying he seems good but his end product is absolute mince.

    Not the most raving reviews from them although I'll see how he does for us before passing final judgement
    Sounds fairly similar to Barker

    He looks like he chips in with a few goals, always a bonus when signing a player who's not a forward.

    I’ll do my bit to bump this up because this looks a very serious signing for us. Playing in English Championship with 4 ROI caps in 2017 FFS! That’s a real deal signing. The hairs on the back of my neck are standing up.

    Most likely some bartering behind the scenes with Alex Neil and Barker and Horgan’s agent with the McGinn money the catalyst for getting it over the line?

    Possibly explains Barker's "teasing" of a return to ER.

    Not so long ago it was a bonus when we signed a forward who chipped in with a few goals.

    Laughed when a guy on the PNE thread said he was surprised Hibs fans hadn't made the Tyrion Lannister comparison yet …. It was the first thing I thought when I saw his picture … hope he's half as entertaining

    They liked his attitude and commitment which is good, but seemed to think his final ball was lacking and his tactical awareness was poor "but he should do well in Scotland" was the common theme …. aye, coz Hibs are quite happy to see their wingers crosses going out for throw ins on the other side of the pitch and not understanding their role in the formation. Hopefully our coaching is better than theirs.

    That remains to be seen I suppose, though from when he arrived till the day he left we did seem to make some progress with Brandon Barker in both these areas, he was lacking somewhat in both when he came to ER as well.

    Anyway, welcome to the Hibees Daryl, you sound like you could be just the guy we need, final ball and positional sense notwithstanding

    That's a good point, Hibs right now with Lennon seems to be all about improving players.

    Look at Boyle, when he joined he was very raw now he's one of our best players every week!

    Isn't Google great? I had no idea who Tyrion Lannister was as I never watch Game Of Thrones. Have we signed the smallest player ever to play for Hibs?

    Really looking forward to seeing him play for Hibs - a lot of guys in Galway were raving about him to me when it was originally rumoured that we were keen, but it all went quiet for a while.

    I’m in country Mayo atm and the guys I’ve spoken to rate this guy. Said he’s a great player and was the best player in Ireland for a few years. If he’s played in England For a couple more years Shirley he will be better now? Anyway they guys I’ve spoken to seem to think
    He’s a great player. Looking forward to seeing him.

    Sorry I’m guessing the answer is no for this round but can he play in Europe?

    No, he’ll be available for St Johnstone, but not Molde. Needed to be registered before the first leg.

    Looks promising.

    Showed some good touches when he came on today. Comfortable with either foot.

    Shame he’s not available on Thursday.

    Looks like he needs work on the end product but will be some player.

    Is that three assists in the last two games? Kamberi hit the bar with a header from a Horgan cross as well last week if I recall correctly. He's looking like he'll be a big player for us. Love his work rate as well.

    Never understood the stick he got early in the season. Was never comfortable playing as a No10. Looks far more comfortable out wide. Even when things don't go for him he doesn't hide.

    There has been plenty end product since the new manager had the cunning plan of playing him in his natural position. He is scoring regularly and his crossing has been brilliant the last month or so. I really like how two footed he is and with that low centre of gravity, workrate and burst of pace he has now replaced most of what we are missing with Boyle being out. It will be interesting to see if both can play in the same side as they both work really hard for creative wide men so it might just work..

    I think he's scored once since Lennon left and he hasn't scored for the Heck yet.

    Since he arrived, I think he's scored 5.

    For some reason I thought he had got a couple recently. He is certainly providing an end product though with assists.
