Malonga

[Dinkydoo]

Malonga appreciation thread: thought the big guy was fantastic today. Involved in 2 clever pieces of play leading up to the first two goals, told a QoTS fan to shut up, was spotted doing pressups in the 2nd half, oozed class all day.

Man of The Match for me.

[Libby Hibby]

Good to hear

[hibsbollah]

Theres threads like this every week, yet theres always some bellend who claims hes 'lazy'.

Our most naturally talented player IMO.

[Andy74]

Someone will be along shortly to say that he is capable of it when he chooses to be.

Press ups?

Glad to hear he had a good game, I think hel have a good season.

Yea, he fell over at one point, lay on the ground for a few seconds before bashing out two pressups when getting up :hilarious:

[Stuarty27]

Best he has played in months today.

The most frustrating thing about him is he has performances like today in his locker but will do next to nothing the next two or three games.

Any need? This post is just as bad as the ones you say are on their way. Its boring.

I love Malonga.

King Dom was different class today. Deserve to keep his place in the team

Long live the King!

35 minutes is shortly I suppose.

Do Do Do


Dominic Malonga

[California-Hibs]

Not sure the stats, but I feel we win far more regularly when Malonga starts to when he doesn't? Well done King Dom!

[Borderhibbie76]

Malonga was class today...head and shoulders above everyone else on the pitch when it comes to natural talent!

Played well today, nice one King Dom!!

[Andy74]

A pity he didn't score. I believe he had a Richard Gordon t shirt underneath.

I heard his shirt actually had the English scores on it.

Was I Substituted after 20 minutes?

[Billy Whizz]

Everything good about Hibs today went through Dom. Just a shame that we didn't play through him a lot more. Too many high balls to Jason for my liking, who was fortunate to stay on the park

[LancashireHibby]

I think he can be incredibly frustrating on some days, but today wasn't one of them. Very impressive performance, good on him.

I agree him and Cummings are a potent strike force.

[MJN1875]

Clearly confidence is oozing out of him, I think he's going to be one of our best players this season.

Any confidence Aberdeen had as a team appears to have been absorbed by malonga!

[QMU-1875]

Could people start referring to him as Malongoals. Thank you.

[The_Horde]

That's awlroite

[J-C]

Glad to hear he played well, on his day he's the best striker in the Championship, his all round play when he's up for it is top notch.

[BIGK]

Man of the match for me , even my 10 year old daughter whose interest in football is minimal thought he was the' best guy on the pitch'.

[Carheenlea]

Dominique was a joy to watch this afternoon. When in this form alongside Jason Cummings we really do look dangerous in attack. Showed some delightful footwork on the artificial pitch, which to be fair, didn`t look too bad a surface.

I wasn't there today but was at the Aberdeen and st mirren games and felt Jason was lucky to stay on in either game. Thing is he can create a moment of magic like all good strikers as he showed against aberdeen and this will be why Stubbs keeps him on. Must say I'd like to see feruz soon though.

Cummings was lucky to stay on today for an entirely different reason. Good decision from Stubbs to take him off before he was sent off. He played well otherwise, mind.

Oh right, so he had a good game today obv apart from scoring? Glad to hear it.

Yeah he kept himself busy and was always looking for the ball to link up with others. We definitely seemed more inclined to play it on the deck which may or may not be related to the plastic pitch.

Malonga is by far the most talented player I've ever seen at Hibs. Will go onto better things than us. Class apart

He is good but not even the most talented in our squad in my opinion, hopefully he keeps up the good performances

Controversial. Depends on your age I suppose.

[craigmounthibby]

Best overall game from Dom since we played at the midden in January before the Africa cup of nations. Running off the ball too 😉

Fair comment given your age I guess but even us old guys would argue that Deeks for one would compare favourably. He is very good though, the best player on the pitch yesterday by a mile.

LOL the original poster is young so lets give him the benefit of the doubt. But Dom is no where near Deek and should not be mentioned in the same breath. There are easily 50 - 100 players over the last 30 years that are much better that Dom remember the level we are playing! That is not to say Dom is not a good player he is but please lets not get silly here.

[EdinMike]

I'de put Francisco Luna as one of those players...

Whilst I agree we've had many better players I think saying he is nowhere near Riordan is pushing it.

In terms of technique and football brain I'd say he is better than Riordan. He doesn't have that same ability to finish from long range regularly though.

They are totally different types of player and Dom has already probably played at better levels elsewhere than Derek managed.

Could Dom score as many goals if he played the same amount of games for us? Probably not but he also brings a lot of other things go to the team.

I would be interested in your list of 100 Hibs players from the last 30 years that are better than Dom though!

[BroxburnHibee]

MOTM by a mile.

Riordan might top that list :greengrin players like Jackson Durie Weir Wright McAllister O'Neil that is 5 from the same team without getting in to Mowbray and McLeish's teams. Over 30 years we have had some great players in poor teams. Most different from Dom many may even be defenders but are better players and brought more than Dom. As i said before that does not make him a bad player he is obviously good but lets not get carried away. Remember will play aginst part timers in this league.

Some of his best moments have been against teams in the league above though. I think he would be even better for us if we were playing teams who were trying to make a game of it.

[MJN1875]

Best I've seen play for hibs, latapy, sauzee, griffiths, Murphy, Harper, oconnor, riordan, brown, Thomson, agathe and zitelli.

Hoping malonga, Cummings, Henderson, mcginn, mcgeoch, elalgui and feruz all achieve this status eventually.

You must have been a toddler when Russell and Franck were playing for us if your statement is true.

[The_Horde]

Not trolling, but there was definitely a hint of sarcasm in the post. He definitely gets a much rougher time than he should.

Games like yesterday where he's allowed to roam and drop deep is when Dom Is at his best. And he's definitely our most gifted player. Just wish his teammates could use him more.

Henderson mcgeoch mcginn and feruz all more talented players imo

Is your opinion on Feruz based on other people's opinions or have you seen a lot of him?

[MJN1875]

I have seen him once on his debut for us, and plenty of footage of him playing for Chelsea and Scotland and he is so unbelievably talented. It's just a matter of getting his attitude sorted.

Not much then giving I don't think he has played in Chelsea first team and not too many Scotland appearances either.

Yeah but if you go and watch you can see how talented he is. It's there for everyone to see.

You know what, it's funny you mention him. I was thinking about adding him, he was decent, but I just don't think he was good enough to be in that list!
