Wow, just wow! How good were we today! My Dons friend conceded that they are very fortunate the score wasn't 5/6-0 in the end, and he's not wrong!

That 2nd half was sensational.. if we play like that in the derby it could be a night to remember

Absolute class, Aberdeen struggled with our pace in the second half !! Destroyed them at times

We would have strolled it against Celtic today we were that good. Second half especially. Second half was the best I’ve seen a Hibs team play in years.

Dominated a very good side today. Add the wasted points against Motherwell and Rangers, the "goal" that never was against Hearts, goal line clearance against Celtic and we wouldn't be far off top! All hypothetical but this is some team we have.

Buzzing. We bossed that. Really enjoyable. Whole team played well

Midfield will destroy Hearts

As does McInnes.

Said we murdered them in the 2nd half, only players taking responsibility were players in a green and white shirt and that they were lucky it was only 2-0

These things happen against the better teams, it's the 1-1s away to Dundee, st j and especially Hamilton that bug me! Thats 6 points we really should have

Brilliant stuff. I honestly wouldn't be able to pick MOTM as there were so many great performances.

I agree so many players were good for different reasons.

Hanlon and Daz solid at the back. But I thought big Efe was a cut above them and most of the good stuff we did actually started with him.

Boyle in the second half was superb.

McGinn and McGeough just kept things moving.

Allan. On the ball he is the difference. But Allan is going to let us see the real John McGinn because McGinn can just play without feeling he needs to do everything.

Big Flo looks a bit awkward at times but he’ll do well for us. And he clearly likes being here.

I’d have given it to Effie. Sensational.

To be honest I thought we did well but I've seen us play better this year, Allan was the difference, what a change it makes to have a player who's first thought is who can I play it forward to rather than sideways

Said at the game it was best home performance since 4-0 against Rangers.

Common factor - Allan

I wouldn’t argue with that. If we’d played like that in the cup final we’d have taken 3 or 4 off The Rangers.

Rangers game at home, Aberdeen the first time we played them, it's not a criticism, just not getting carried away, when we properly click then someone is in for a right doing!!

Sensational 2nd 45. Fair play to McInnes for his after match comments too, summed the game up well.

Always nice to see Hibs play that well in from of a full house at ER - will encourage more back !

just had a peek on Kickback. Yams are tearing themselves apart as usual. Blaming Levien for his Natural Order comment for firing us up. Laughing ma head aff.

Fair enough. If we won the game vs rangers every would probably say We played better that game so it's people's opinions are probably swayed a bit by results

See above, think we played better against the huns and Aberdeen first time round but just didn't get the rub of the green, it's not being down on the team, more purring about what there is to come!!

Aberdeen first time round we created next to nothing. Night and day. Brilliant second half, some team talk at half time I think.

Kamberi is slowly but surely proving his worth to this team - another excellent performance, leading the line and linking play. Gave the Dons backline problems all day, and scored a good goal. Haven't had anyone like him at ER is years. :thumbsup:

Terrific performance second half, best I’ve seen in a long time! Everybody played their part but special mention to Effe Ambrose, Dillon, Boyler and Scotty Allan. Ripped Aberdeen up for bog roll:thumbsup:

That second half was simply sensational..we battered them and should have been 4 or 5 nil easy.

That midfield trio will go absolute ape **** against the cheats

Superb Hibs. Now that was a brilliant performance agianst a very good Aberdeen side. They expected to pump us again but looked out of their depth throughout.

Nae luck sheep humpers.

On that form we'll give Hertz a hiding. Can't wait.

Some obvious class performances today but I think the tireless shift put in by McLaren, his first full 90mins of the season was significant in pulling the Dons defence in all directions.

Oh definitely, I wouldn’t change that day for the world! But today was a better performance, just slightly less significant though!

Noticed that as well...his running of the channels was non stop and really kept their back line occupied. A good pairing those two upfront I think, let’s hope we can keep it going as we have hit a nice run of form ahead of the Yams coming to ER!

Really excellent performance especially 2nd half.

Can’t say how much I enjoyed a Hibs team dominating a good side like that and making them look very very poor

Scored on his debut, played in the win at Ibrox and scored again today.

That’s a blistering start, nothing slow and sure about it!!!

Just back. Superb performance today, probably one of the best I have seen since the TT's in the 70's. Big thanks to Darwenhibby for organising tickets and train and also the 20 dads and lads with DH that I joined from North West England who witnessed a fantastic Hibs. :nlgwa:flag::flag::flag:
