Can someone figure out how to do this? Add a poll in stages or something?

David Murphy at left back by a mile and Daniel Andersson is bar far the best keeper!

For starters id go -

Daniel Anderson - Goalkeeper
David Murphy - Left Back
Rob Jones - Center Half
Sol Bamba - Center Half
Steven Whitaker - Right Back

Derek Riordan - Left Midfield
Guillame Beuzelin - Center Midfield
Kevin Thomson - Center Midfield
Scott Brown - Right Midfield

Leigh Griffiths - Striker
Steven Fletcher - Striker

And for Subs -

Gregorz Szamatulski - Goalkeeper
Matthias Doumbe - Defender
Lewis Stevenson - Defender
Ian Murray - Midfielder
Ivan Sproule - Winger
Merouane Zemmama - Attacking Midfield
Anthony Stokes - Striker

That team would easily win the current Premiership.

Is a very good team. Imo Claros wouldn't be far off, but don't think he'd quite break into that midfield 4 from when they were all at their best.

That would do me. Strange though that despite plenty of left footed players, Riordan probably is the best left midfielder we've had in a long time - and he didn't really want to play there.

Might put Benji on the bench in place of Stokes though, contrarian that I am. Him and Fletcher worked nicely together, him and LG would be awesome.

With a squad like that in Scottish football we could play the right way in a properly attacking 4-3-3 fashion and win the league. Plenty of scope to change it around with subs if it's not working too. Manager in charge - Tony Mowbray or John Collins....Can't decide between the two!

Szamotulski managed a whole 13 games for us, you would really have him on the bench before Williams? I was glad when we signed Szamotulski, and he did ok for us, but Williams has been a far better signing IMO.

We really have been spolied. Some brilliant players.

Or we should set standards at our club and aim to produce good players /teams more often (ongoing)?

Granted some of the cheap buys or freebies we signed, turned out to be real gems; but the home grown players should be coming through, after all we've spent a lot of money on EM's and it shouldn't just be a pretty place for the full team to train at (whatever it is, they do there).
We are one of Scotlands bigger clubs, have a very good infrastructure and are from the capital city. We ought to aim a little higher than we do.

If we're talking about how good they were at Hibs then surely Stokes is ahead of Fletcher?

Stokes got 23 goals in his season here, Fletcher never beat 14.

I'd go with the OP's team apart from this change and probably Doumbe for Bamba.

I disagree, Fletcher was very underrated when he was a Hibs player. Hes never been a prolific goalscorer, and still isnt, but he was far more talented than Stokes imo. I rated him as the best striker I had seen at Hibs in recent times, until Griffiths last year - Id be very surprised if we see a more complete striker than Griffiths at SPL level.

As for the team, most people have gone with more or less the same team, I dont think anything else needs to be said!

Interesting how nobody other than me has gone for Gaz O'C in their starting line up.

I can see why Fletcher has been chosen ahead as he has had by far the better career but in terms of Hibs form I would say O'Connor shades it.

He scored more goals, had the power and pace Fletcher has never really had and left Hibs IMHO more of the finished article than Fletch was when he left.

Special note for G O'C as well is that he came back in 11/12 with all sorts of problems, injuries, addictions etc and played in one of the worst Hibs teams in a long time but still managed to hit 16 goals in a season he was in and out of form and fitness and missed a fair few games.

O'Connor is such a waste of talent and Fletcher is kinda having the sort of career G O'C should have had.

If we're talking about players at their best for us then McPake would certainly be in there for me. When on loan he was a standout (albeit in a terrible team), always worked the hardest and was still praised when we lost by 1, 2 or 3 goals. I don't think anyone had a bad word to say about him before he signed full time? Saying that... I'm not exactly the best one to make judgment since I've only been going to ER regularly since 2010 :greengrin

What this thread has made me realise is that if you tried to produce a balanced squad out of what we have had in the last 10 years it would be difficult.

We have had loads of decent forwards and midfield players so no worries on that front.

Centre halves we could get by with Caldwell, Jones, Bamba and Ian Murray who did a decent turn there for a while during his first spell. Maybe Dounbe at a push.

Left backs, Murphy was class and Stephen Glass would not be a bad back up and you could use Ian Murray there too.

Goal keepers - I can name plenty bad ones though overall Williams has been decent, Stack was ok and Danny Anderson was good though tend to forget him now. Special mention for the brief spell of Szamoltulski (sp) but he wasn't really around long enough to judge.

It is when you come to right back - Whittaker was very good but I cannot for the life of me think of another decent right back we have had in the last 10 years. Really highlights how good Whittaker was and how much we have struggled to replace him.

In the end, I might go drop Murray out of CB contention, go for Doumbe as ac entre half and then have Murray as general cover for everywhere including right back!

05-09-2013, 07:40 PM
All these teams make me shudder at what they would do if played together at their prime..

Apart from in goals and the centre of defence (which is probably the weakest part of the above teams), the vast majority of these players were brought in through the youth system or as unproven youngsters.

Really makes you think that the entire core of our club should be focused on sourcing, training and managing as many young players as possible, and that the loss of D Park (and inability to replace properly) may have been the root cause of our last few years of torpidity. :boo hoo:

Mowbray had his faults too despite being a great Hibs manager. JC had the team playing good stuff and looking like professional football players. If he'd had a better assistant to help him man manage a bit better then he could have been a great manager for us. On reflection though I agree, definitely Mowbray!

Is De La Cruz ineligible for this? Don't know who I'd replace him with on the bench tbh!

I thought Andersson was a much better keeper than Williams. Not saying Williams is a bad keeper though. It's difficult to compare Fletcher with Stokes IMO. Stokes scored a lot of goals in his short stint with Hibs, and Fletcher didn't start playing as a striker with Hibs until the last couple of seasons. Anytime I saw him before that he seemed to be playing midfield whenever he got a game, which wasn't regularly.

Also touched on this on here a while back. Really does pain me to see, even half fit and not nearly at his best he was Still a major threat and scoring alot of goals. Really does make you wonder what he could of been if he kept his head down and got stuck in.

Still think he would score goals in the spl even in his current state. Think that's saying more about the league though. He had so much potential though.
