Say what you want about him, and the posters that say he's not good enough for Hibs but..............

good enough for Aberdeen

he looked sharp from the start

always looked dangerous - more that could be said of any hibs attacker

and not surprised when he popped up with what proved to be the winner

[matty_f]

He was doing his best to get Lewis sent off after Lewis got booked. Was very lucky not to be booked himself, probably should have been on a couple of occasions.

so you wouldn't take him?

[matty_f]

Nope.

[houstonhibbee]

Nope.
and presumably for the reasons you have stated

[SChibs]

There isn't even a discussion to be had here, gms would improve our team. Fwiw I'd take logan, gms, and maybe one of their striker's in the hibs team but I think the defences and midfield are pretty even apart from that.

[NAE NOOKIE]

I have never had any regard for GMS as a man ... yes he has decent skill ... but IMO he is a *****g coward and if you can get a couple of meaty challenges on him early doors you wont see him for the rest of the game. I never saw anything from him yesterday to change that opinion and laughed my arse off when I saw him accuse Lewis Stevenson of going down too easily after he had tackled him ..... add up a hundred GMS's and you still wouldn't get one Stevenson when it comes to guts and commitment.

I would take Lewis, Shinnie, Christie and especially Logan in a second, but GMS can GTF and I would have said the same before today :aok:

[Heisenberg]

How he got away without getting booked yesterday was astonishing. Halfed Stevenson from behind and got away with it. Would I take him in our team based on his attributes? 100%.

[Pretty Boy]

Annoying wee barsteward but the boys a player. That's the most uncomfortable I've seen Stevenson look in years.

For all the criticism Boyle is getting he was up against a cracking players in Logans as well. Him and GMS worked well together and it always looked like any breakthrough was coming down that side in the 1st half.

I'd take him at Hibs in a minute.

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

GMS is a decent player and if he was the difference between the teams yesterday then that surely tells us how far we have come.

Stevenson put him in the air early doors yesterday and then GMS ripped him a new one so not sure I agree with the coward comment.

He'd definitely improve our team/squad - I was disappointed we didn't get him in the summer.

He's a cheating niggly little ******* but some player. Same with Christie. Both could have been off yesterday if the referee was consistent with his cards.

[Firestarter]

A kind of player you love in our side but hate in opposition.

He played well today, but it's inconsistency that's his problem. A very frustrating player for United and Celtic.

[JimBHibees]

Unfortunately Boyle short pass to Lewis meant that he got an early booking meaning Lewis wasn't able to continually foul gms throughout the game like some of the Aberdeen players were able to do with impunity to Hibs players.

He was **** hot at Dundee Utd. We have many players with the same problem too.

[neil7908]

I'd have him in a heartbeat.

Look at GMS impact on that game versus Boyle.

[Frazerbob]

Any of their starting 11 would improve our squad. Best Sheep team since their halcyon days.

Took a "meaty challenge" got up scored one and should have had two, so kinda kills your argument.

[DTS]

Was excellent yesterday, yes he’s a diving cheating little prick but he was the biggest threat for them yesterday and that’s the first time in a long time I’ve felt Stevenson was struggling to get to his man although may have been impacted with the booking. Boyle should take note on how to be an effective winger without permantly hugging the wing and turning back

[SlickShoes]

Stevenson really is untouchable to some folk. I done a 180 and like him at left back but blaming Boyle for him getting booked is ridiculous.

Let's say Boyles short pass did not help then :greengrin

Agree with this. Logans the best right back in the league imo. Slightly better than lustig at celtic

[staunchhibby]

Think Boyles pass caused the problem which ended up with Stevenson getting booked.

[edwards]

He used to do the same thing to Stevenson when he played for UTD nothing different there I am afraid

[My_Wife_Camille]

He's a quality player. He's as good as a team like Hibs or Aberdeen can realistically hope for. I know it's about opinions but I can't help but think that people saying they wouldn't have him at Hibs are just kidding themselves.

[Stantons Angel]

Think Boyles pass caused the problem which ended up with Stevenson getting booked.


i would agree with this, the pass was short and Lewis had to lung at it and took the player too. Hence the booking...... GMS is a cheating wee diving git..... for want of better words!

If his skills include throwing himself on the deck every 5 mins and trying to get other players sent off then id rather not see him in a Hibs jeresey. Yes he made Lewis look uncomfortable by having to reign in his tackles of the wee prat or he'd have been sent off!!

Yes he has skills, but at each of his last clubs he has been unable to show consistent use of them and has even had to try and perfect his diving skills in the River Clyde!

So im sorry but he is not for Hibs IMO!!!

[Nicho87]

Boyles pass was a hospital pass for Stevenson. Shinnie, Logan, really solid full backs. Boyle got nothing out of Logan for 70 minutes. We need a Rooney type up front.

[Bob1875]

HIm & Christie are top players and would walk into our team im afraid.

Didn't he end up in the Kelvin - some dive and a half that.

No it isn't, Boyle put him in a terrible position with a hospital ball, Stevenson had to bring GMS down or he would have been away.

[Danderhall Hibs]

No denying the pass was short but come on! Boyle will be wishing that Whittaker had been playing LB so he could've avoided taking the flak.

GMS is an erse. Don't need/want him at ER.

[Hi Heid Yin]

I think you might be caught up in the local hype and allowing it to cloud your judgment.
Man for man, there is little to separate their first team from ours.
I'm sure there are many sheep who would gladly swap some of their regular first teamers for ours.
The thing that separates us at present is shape and tactics - something that Neil Lennon will put right.

I said any of their starting 11 would improve our SQUAD. If you don't think that's the case, you are in cloud coockoo land. I would take any of them if they were an option. For what it's worth, I think there's isn't much between the two starting 11's yesterday, man for man but as a team, they have the slight edge. If you watch Lenny's post match interview, he agrees. I stand by my assesment that this is the best Aberdeen team since 80's or early 90's.

[Hibernia&Alba]

Of course he'd good enough to get in our team. Come on.

[ancient hibee]

No it isn't, Boyle put him in a terrible position with a hospital ball, Stevenson had to bring GMS down or he would have been away.


Quite right.I said to my son that Boyle should take the card-it was his fault.

I understood what you said, and, equally, any of our first 11 would improve their squad.
I agree that they have an edge as a team, but only tactically, and, of course, it's hard to argue that this is not the best Aberdeen team since the 80's.

So you agree with then. Good man 😉

[Smartie]

That was the very definition of a hospital pass.

Horrible pass, Stevenson could do nothing other than get booked, which is far from ideal against such a tricky, niggly opponent.

[Albanian Hibs]

I think he is *****. Hate the wee dirty *******.

[anon1875]

GMS was a Hibs fan as a boy

[WeeRussell]

Quality player that would improve our squad and first 11.

[The_Horde]

No it isn't, Boyle put him in a terrible position with a hospital ball, Stevenson had to bring GMS down or he would have been away.

Don't actually think he touched GMS either. He was already off the ground 'in anticipation'

GMS is a quality player, better than any attacking option we have and it's obvious his time at Celtic has improved his movement, mentality and game awareness as well.

[calumhibee1]

Pretty much agree with this. I'd take Lewis, Logan, Arnason, Shinnie, McLean, Christie, GMS, Rooney and although he didn't look that exciting on Saturday, Stevie May. And I'd probably put all of them into our starting 11 with the exception of Arnason and possibly one of the forwards although even then I reckon they'd both start for us. Aberdeen are a very good side at our level with an absolute shed load of experience and ability. I'd probably go as far to say they're not a kick in the arse off some of the poorer OF teams of recent years.

Thought he looked unfit and tbh he scalfed his shot for the goal . Opinions eh :)

I actually thought Lewis had a great game after he was booked (as others have pointed out, Boyler was to blame for his yellow) and the pass for the goal was a full back's nightmare. Lewis timed most of his tackles to perfection and the one that saw GMS hobble off was a beauty.

He is on the other hand extremely inconsistent,has not I think played regularly and was that his first goal?

My missus used to work with his sister, in fairly sure they're from somewhere in the north east

To be fair to the lad he's been doubling up football and swimming at the same time. Can't be easy.

With you 100%. He was taken out of the game foe the goal but that was down to quality of pass. McLean should'nt have had the space.
