The saves at the end were as good as goals, world class stuff! :thumbsup:

I'm never 100% happy when he has to deal with crosses but wow, he bails us out of trouble more often than we probably deserve. Good stuff

Yep. We know his flaws - sometimes suspect with crosses - but he's comfortably the best 'keeper we've had since Daniel Andersson. Incredible shotstopper, and gets the basic stuff right almost all of the time, something that escaped a whole series of Hibs goalies. If he didn't have the weakness with crosses, he'd be playing at a much higher level.

Out of contract at the end of the season, time for an extension :agree::deal:

:agree: Exactly. Amazing how people change their minds and contradict themselves week in, week out...

Fair play to the big man for bouncing back after last week. He bailed the back 4 out tonight.

Great saves tonight, kept us in the game:thumbsup:

I said it after his first half a season with us and i`ll say it again best keeper since Leighton. The amount of time he bails us out the brown stuff is unreal. What happened at Inverness was a shocker but glad the big man has hit top form again.

Some absolutely wonderful saves tonight from the big guy, any goalkeeper in the world would have been proud of those saves!

It's absolutely vital that we extend his contract beyond the summer.

Fantastic signing.

The 2 brilliants saves then flap at the cross sums him up imo.

Great at our level, new deal asap.

He came from the mighty col u's!! He was class there as well. I liked Stack but I LOVE Williams

MOTM. Although there wasn't much to choose from. Kept us in it.

World class tonight, best keeper I've seen in a hibs jersey. Top notch.

Between him and Thomson for MOTM imo.

Ben Williams and Liam Craig's goal were the only real quality in the match.

Certainly best 'keeper since Anderson, but then there's not been a lot of competition! Nowhere near standard of Leighton, or Goram. Good shot stopper. Poor at crosses. Fair communicator. Could work on his decision making. Overall, probably as good as we could expect at the minute.

Kevin Thomson is a class apart, he very rarely loses the ball and his passing is incisive. Pity we don't have more players on his wavelength.

Kevin Thomson does rarely lose the ball, although he also slows the game down to a snails pace too. Quite why we need another defensive midfielder in beside him is beyond me, the ball needs to be moved on much quicker and forward A LOT BLOODY MORE THAN IT IS NOW.

Watching last night with my mates, we all commented on how it was passed during the game. Defenders pass it along the line, then into Thomson to Taiwo to Craig back to Thomson then onto Robertson then back to Taiwo who passed it back to Nelson or Hanlon then HOOF.

We spent all night watching the game all shouting pass pass pass pass hoof, its become a catchphrase. :rolleyes:

Ben Williams, let's reward him and tie him up to a longer deal, so we can either benefit from his skills or a good transfer fee when the time comes. Liam Craig is looking very good as well. Kevin Thomson is doing a great job steadying the team in the middle.

We were not great last night, but let's look at some positives for a change!

I won't name the poster, to save his embarassment, but someone on here suggested Williams be replaced for last night's game because he's been so bad recently.

In my book he is an absolute priority for a new contract. Great stopper and top guy.

Wo Wo Wo Wo guys calm down.........................if we praise hoim too much other teams will be after him, personally I'd like to see him at Hibs for a while yet.
