One of the best midfielders in the country outside Celtic, available for free in the summer.

They'd be mad not to be interested.

He was with Rangers as a youth but they didn't want to let him go.

Neil Lennon visited his home and asked him to come back to Celtic where he had been earlier in his youth career and he agreed. Walter Smith asked him to reconsider but he chose to go back to Celtic.

Especially if McGeouch went to that lot.

There has been some discussion of a new deal but Dylan surely would have to see what else is on offer. I would hope he would have some loyalty to Hibs since we nursed him through various injuries and treatments, however him being injured might make him think how precarious his situation is and have a look for anything with more moeny.

I woudnt be surprised if both Sevco and Aberdeen are looking at him. He's one of the best midfielders in the country available on a free transfer and at 24 is a good age.

He seems to be many folks favourite player at the club ,myself included, and I hope I'm wrong but my gut instinct is he won't be with us next season.

Whatever way you look at it Aberdeen would be a sidewards step to a worse city. He won't be going up there that's for sure.

When he's been fit (which isn't often enough) Dylan has been a near constant pick in midfield. We suit the way he plays - by no means a given.

I would hope he recognises what he has here and signs a new deal.

Aberdeen - sideways move
Rangers - possible but a new manager from Englandshire will fortunately have other ideas
Celtic - don't think they would consider him good enough if Rodgers is still there

That leaves the English Championship as the main danger - hopefully the injury history would scare them off.

Given his injuries we may be able to tempt him with a long contract but if we do we are ones taking the risk of the injuries returning.

There will be a lot of weighing up by all parties before his future is resolved.

danhibees1875
29-12-2017, 07:59 PM
I got the impression that his injury proneness is stopping Hibs from either offering a deal or offering one on the terms Dylan wants. There was certainly a nod in the direction of the fact he's been a lot more available in the months he needs to agree a new contract; not something I personally believe.

People saying Aberdeen would be a sideways move are wide of the mark though - 2nd 3 years running, could do it again, European football, more money, signing mcginn's..

Not a peep about this on the Rangers 'Fans' Forum, if you can call it that, A rancid place.

From the little I did read they don't appear to like Catholics, or anyone they do not deem as ''one of their own''.

I have no idea what religion, if any, Dylan subscribes to and quite frankly, does not make a blind bit of difference to me.

However if he is considering Rangers, a wee visit to their 'fans' website may just give him some food for thought.

If he leaves, he will always be a legend for that day last May, but if he’s offered a new deal (a very good one at that) then I’d hope he would sign it especially with how much Hibs have stood by him during a number of bad and very frustrating injuries (for both him and the club)

This is also true, Lennon said he needed him fit and if he couldn’t get fit he’d be free to go. They get on very well though and Lennon could be the deciding factor in him staying imo. He’s loved here and as another poster said I think our style suits him.

Cheers TC...glad to hear they get on...I wasn't sure tbh...to me , on his game, he is our best player. I'd love him to stay on...I fancy he will get a good move though , or else he should sack his agent!

And for a guy who left Celtic for Rangers, then went back to Celtic - it suggests he isn't too emotionally attached to clubs..and will look after himself.

Did he not have a pretty unhappy period at Coventry before he came to us?

Doesn’t really mean a huge amount I suppose but may go some way to putting him off going down south again.

Might have been a pivotal moment. I'm sure Dylan knew he would have to find a way to manage his issues to have a good career in the game.

Hopefully he has, and stays with Hibs to show us the player we know he is. For all the hard hitting defenders, and free scoring forwards, intelligent players like Dylan are the reason I pay my money on a Saturday.

Loyalty is, for the most part, a thing of the past in football so us having stuck by him (or honoured the contract we gave him is a more accurate description) is irrelevant really.

Fantastically gifted footballer. I'd put him alongside many of the great Hibs players I've had the pleasure of watching since the 60's.

When he's on his game, our midfield all play well. If he's not, they can struggle..

Been said many times before but if he didn't have his injury history issues, he'd be playing at Celtic or somewhere down South.

Would love him to sign another contract with us.

What utter crap, up there with Lucky's post earlier in the week about Marvin Bartley.

A water carrier, Really?

Whilst he doesn't have the physical attributes of SJM, his "mental attributes" are yet another Hibs Net myth.

Dylan and Stokes are the two technically best footballers at ER by the length of Leith Walk.

Dylan has the ability to take the ball in tight situations and beat players with it with ease and retain the ball.

If you think he is a "water carrier" I would love to hear your considered descriptions on some of our other midfielders / players, let alone those on the rest of the league.

With a quality target man.


We don't play generally with a good hold up target man that holds the ball up and wins knock downs. This lets the midfield get up. We play more with mobile strikes looking to play on the shoulder. Dont mind how they play it as long as they are good players and doing the job. Short of changing personnel though you need a target man for this midfield to chip in more.....

DM has a better footballing brain than SJM at this time. Mcginn will indeed go on to better things but right now the better player overall when both are fit Is Dylan. He creates way more!

This isn’t in anyway saying McGinn can’t hes just got a lot to learn.

southern hibby
30-12-2017, 09:29 AM
I’ll start by saying I’d love to keep both DMc and SJM, however as good as both these players are the don’t score many goals from midfield. In fact when they do get forward they can score. SJM’s 2 at Parkheid and Dylan’s goal against ( I think it was Aberdeen at Hampden) then came of injured.

We need an attacking midfield player who can chip in with goals, we thought we might see this earlier in the season with Danny however poor lads had a terrible season through no fault of his own. Maybe he can turn the corner and produce what we seen him do last season for St Johnstone now most of that’s behind him.

What I would like to see ( maybe it could work if tried ) is DMc further forward with the ball and linking up with the strikers like he did with his goal I mentioned earlier. Just think his pass can open defences. Big question though still remains can Hibs retain his services?

Dylan McGeouch is one of the best midfielders in Scotland when he's fit. Thankfully his injury concerns appear to be behind him this season.

Make no mistake, we will struggle big time to replace him if/when he goes.

They have shown faith in him, its not an owe, just a bit of due respect, although has to be said that if it was true and NL was willing to let him go in the summer, that may reflect Dylan wanting to consider his options. And if he was to read half of what has been said about him on the fans forums over all of his time here, he might not feel 100% wanted here either ,!!!
Think the reality is what he can earn somewhere he thinks he will be happy at at this stage of his career .. England would be my bet but his fitness for the rest of the season will be a key part of who offers him what.

Dinny get me wrong. I love Dylan but he's not a clever midfield type like SJM. And he certainly couldn't carry the whole thing himself.

Been our best midfielder this season over mcginn.

He would be a big loss if he goes, particularly to a rival like Aberdeen. We are in as strong a position as I can remember as a club - we need to be able to hold onto our best players (SJM aside due to £!) and keep building as Aberdeen have done. Offer him the best terms we can.

Have Hibs ever lost a player to Aberdeen?

McInnes is a long time admirer and Aberdeen seem to have a bit cash to throw about. If he ended up at Aberdeen then I'd be far from shocked.

Loyalty is, for the most part, a thing of the past in football so us having stuck by him (or honoured the contract we gave him is a more accurate description) is irrelevant really.Doubt it...a lot of their budget has gone on resigning McGinn

McGeough is not McGinn. He has neither the physical nor the mental attributes required to be the Hibee midfield dynamo. He's basically a water carrier. I love him, but......................

We need another Collins/Commons type on the left side - assuming McGinn is away.Nonsense...if anything Dylan wins more ball than McGinn. Love them both but Dylan is far more important to the way we function as a team imo

Would he ever be asked to play in a 1 man midfield? :confused:

Great player when he is fit, I can understand the concerns at the start of the season but he's done well imo, hopefully signs on the dotted line

What utter nonsense, Dylan is one of the cleverest midfielders in Scotland, deceivingly strong and very well balance and never panics when surrounded by players, we're lucky to have him and hopefully we'll have him here for another few years.

Wish nearly all the mids and forwards wold shoot more often, fed up watching them trying to walk it into the net.

More of the same today. Excepting a couple of shots by Swanson and McGinn, everyone wanted either an extra touch or to pass to someone else.

Id say McGeouch has a better football brain than McGinn. If we are under the Cosh and needing to calm down I'd trust mcgeouch on the ball more than McGinn. A lot of what mcgeouch does reminds me of boozy. Very composed and calm and has moments of sheer class
