Lewis Stevenson

[Heisenberg]

There will probably be a lot of threads singling players out but Lewis was absolutely incredible today. Forrest and Roberts both firmly in his back pocket. Take a bow.

Neither went past him. He was just flawless today. Except that heavy touch when running with the ball😂. Absolutely superb lew!!

[hibee_girl]

He was outstanding today, again.

The wee man was outstanding as were the whole team and tactics

[norwayhibs]

Was absolutely outstanding today, mom for me , Hibernian legend:not worth

[IGRIGI]

Forest and co didn't have an answer today, great performance by Stevenson.

[calumhibee1]

Outstanding. Won the ball superbly and an assist in the build up to the first goal.

[makaveli1875]

he was my MOTM , the 1st goal was all down to him . Never put a foot wrong

[CMac1988]

Yip. I have Kamberi as my Man of the Match, but Stevenson was the other stand out. Great cross for the goal and another that was cut out just before. Some fantastic challenges and passing throughout. I can only mind Forrest getting past once and I'm fairness to Lewy if was a great ball. Roberts... Not even close.

[GreenNWhiteArmy]

Stevenson was outstanding. Absolutely outstanding today.

Him, hanlon or Kamberi was my MOTM

He's still way short of being good enough for a cap though. :rolleyes:

[AgentDaleCooper]

Absolute legend.

[The Modfather]

I’ve always thought he was a good player, but has his limitations. He seems to have really kicked on in the second half of this season. Particularly those limitations, he looks to have a final ball these days.

[HibbyAndy]

WOW utterly ****ing outstanding !!!

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

My MOTM again.

[Baader]

Outstanding. Take a bow.

[hibbydog]

I owe him a public apology. I’d filed him in the ‘all heart but not a great footballer’ category. I was totally wrong. He was brilliant today, and he’s been brilliant all season.

[Mon Dieu4]

Really wasn't fair today, it was just a case of who was going to be The wee legends next victim :not worth

[PiemanP]

Fantastic. And I’m probably not his biggest fan but today he was just brilliant.

[Deansy]

Lewis Stevenson - 'MR HIBS' - thank you !

[IGRIGI]

Thinking about his first goal it wasn't so long ago he couldn't cross a road, his work ethic puts mine to shame.

[Carheenlea]

If I was choosing MOTM I’d have picked Lewis. Magnificent. Plenty candidates of course, which is testament to how good a performance it was.

[eastcoasthibby]

I have had a go at him a few times about his crossing, but never about his attitude and committment,Today theballhe put in for the first goal was fantastic and if it hadbeen some other teams players highlighted time n time again. The ball heput in that Brown touched away and was deemed offsidewas also fantastic ...as has been said the rest of his game today was top notch ..positionally, tackling, getting forward, passing ....as good as it gets in a performance from a full back in any team in any game....ggtth

[hibIBZ]

Having his best season of his career imo and looks like he has got plenty of seasons left in, excellent today and is playing with a confidence he has often lacked

[aljo7-0]

Yup, my man of the match today.

[jacomo]

:agree:

SJM looked slightly embarrassed with his official MOTM award and you can see why.

Don’t get me wrong, he played very well, but Lewis was outstanding.

[HibernianJK]

Said to my mate when he overran the ball in the Celtic half after about 70 minutes it was the only thing he did wrong all day. He was outstanding.

When that happened the guy behind me was up on his feet screaming how s**t Stevenson is and how that’s just typical of him etc etc. 🙄

[HibbiesandtheBaddies]

Fantastic performance. The wee felly jusy gets better and better

It was Dylan who was announced at the game as MOTM. :confused:

Was SJM the BT MOTM?

[LustForLeith]

I seen on twitter that someone’s just gone up to Roberto Carlos and asked him if he’s the Brazilian Lewis Stevenson.

Fact.

[jacomo]

Ah yes probably.

[Green_one]

Superb

Crutial part in first goal. Forrest in his pocket :not worth

[wookie70]

Thinking about his first goal it wasn't so long ago he couldn't cross a road, his work ethic puts mine to shame.

The biggest difference in Lewis' crossing has came from us playing at a higher tempo and actually having 2 strikers who want to get in the box. He has had pretty much nothing to aim at for years.

The wee man was my MOTM by a fair bit which is saying something considering how well the vast majority in the team played. He won every battle, got us on the front foot and hardly put a boot wrong. Hanlon and him are a great partnership on the left side of defense and we are very lucky to have two stalwarts who are also excellent players.

[midfield_maestro]

The crosses, the interceptions, the tackle on Griffiths, the work rate. Absolute top drawer performance from Stevenson today.

[HibbyAndy]

He must be fit as a fiddle he never ever gets rested !

[Seveno]

Best full back in Scotland - bar none.

[KNBE]

He's been great for weeks.

110% as usual 😎

I agree with every word bud. Wee Lewis has been superb this season and was my MoTM today

GGTTH

[gazzag70]

Absolutely outstanding today. I think he is revelling playing in an attack minded team.Motm for me,Well played!!!

[Stantons Angel]

i agree as always Lewis did have brilliant game and his running with the ball and the cross for the first goal was superb.

Its good to read so many of you getting behind him and because of this his confidence is at a high.

Lewis wont give up and fights for every ball, as we seen today when he was on the ground with, i think Roberts, and the wee toad had his legs wrapped around him. he didnt let up but kept his ground and determination to get the ball!

So pleased for him today as i was for the whole team. Great spirit!

[gaz1875]

Lewis for me closely followed with his best performance for months SJM, then the rest all 8/10 :flag:

[Northernhibee]

Brilliant. 10/10 today.

[MrRobot]

I ****ing love Lewis Stevenson.

[Lago]

Great display from Lewis, can relax now & take the kids to the Links Market, good weather for it:agree:

[J-C]

Just posted on the match thread that he was my MOM, tremendous game by the wee man. :thumbsup:

[Borderhibbie76]

He must be fit as a fiddle he never ever gets rested !Even when he goes down for treatment which is hardly ever...you just know he is getting straight back up...absolute warrior the wee guy

[RoscoHibby]

Outstanding today wee lewie. Just brilliant. Hero of a laddie!

[Captain Trips]

Mr Hibs who is a solid and reliable player steps up to another 10/10 performance.

[angus hibby]

And I’m sure I read on Twitter this week that some fans wanted us to try and sign Lee Wallace...

Lewis is an excellent full back, and never gave Forrest/Roberts a look in today. One v one, I’d back Lewis against any winger in Scotland. Similar to Hanlon, he’s vastly underrated by non Hibs fans. My man of the match today, only mistake I remember him making was when he over ran the ball in 2nd half.

Wallace is a rat. lewy is a legend.

Yes we now just assume that Lewis will always be available, because he’s never injured and never gets booked.

We’d have an issue if he was out for any length of time.

[lord bunberry]

His performance today could well go down as his best ever. Some may not agree, but that’s how good I thought he was today.

[Biggie]

Yep, wee lewy was on his game today.......outstanding sir..

[Pretty Boy]

I don't expect anything less from him.

I rarely single him out for praise, probably unfairly, because I just expect him to be a 7 or 8 out of 10 every week minimum. Mr consistent and hardly ever lets us down and he was a 10/10 today.

He was MOM today, in my view anyway...

[Mibbes Aye]

Could argue Hanlon and McGeough for MOTM but Lewis did what he usually does, except he seemed to up it by an extra 20%.

Safe in defence, and positive in attack. And, as always, getting himself into space to receive the pass, time and time again.

What a player.

[Bostonhibby]

Him kamberi and swanson simply refused to buy into the hype that it's celtc so we watch and admire. Bossed them, Lewis was our top performer but Danny knocking Scott Brown off the ball and leaving him for dead is one of my seasons favourite moments.

Lewis was my MOTM today.

He kept some of Scotland's most dangerous players quiet down his side, and put in a perfect ball for our first goal going forward.

Lewis Stevenson is one of football's best kept secrets - we're lucky to have him and there are a number of impostors out there earning much more money than him.

[tamig]

I’ve always thought he was a good player, but has his limitations. He seems to have really kicked on in the second half of this season. Particularly those limitations, he looks to have a final ball these days.

It really irks me when I see people talk about Lewis’s “limitations”. It’s cliche-esque on here now and I reckon people just chuck it in to be one of the crowd. Always baffled me. I don’t recall any other player at ER being tagged with this “limited” description.

Please enlighten me as to what these limitations amount to. Ta.

Please enlighten me as to what these limitations amount to. Ta.Done well at every level he's played at for us, the only limitations I've seen are those that go with the relegation that was thrust upon him, he stood out in the butcher era despite the mediocrity and mismanagement around him.

The lads stuck to the task, got through it and is now shining under lennon in particular. An exceptional Hibee and one of the best at his job I've seen.

Close for me between Lewis and Kamberi.. And Barker for sub of the match :thumbsup:

[21.05.2016]

Outstanding today from Lewis :top marks

[hibee_girl]

I hope Lewis reads all these and sees how much he’s appreciated these days 💚

[LithgaeHibby]

Lewy is getting forward a lot more under Lennon and his use of the ball has been excellent. His crosses have been really good this season and the first goal today was of course a perfect example. Great role model for younger players - and so rare these days for a player to be loyal to one club for so long.

[euro Hibby]

lambasted way to often in the past but always a 110 % man, seems to be hitting top form. great servant to the club and probably one of the first on the team sheet every week.

I think his limitations are that he is too short to play goalkeeper and has yet to win the top flight with Hibs so has a gap in his medal collection.

Stevenson can't do much about the former but still has time to fix the latter.

[guthrie01]

The heart and soul of this club, a modern day legend who gives everything each game

[overdrive]

Stevenson’s poor crossing is up there with Boyle’s lack of end product. Absolute nonsense on both counts.

[O'Rourke3]

Played like a winger today. He's been immense all season.

[Dashing Bob S]

Great player - always said it.

[Higgy115]

Magnificent.

In a game where we had probably 4 candidates for man of the match, Lewis for me.

[Baldy Foghorn]

If I was choosing MOTM I’d have picked Lewis. Magnificent. Plenty candidates of course, which is testament to how good a performance it was.

Yeah same here.....

[HIBEELASS]

Great team performance from every player. But my man o match was definitely Lewis what a shift he put in.

[B.H.F.C]

Not always been nonsense.

The improvement in Boyle compared to what he was when he first came to Hibs is incredible.

And as for Stevenson he’s no longer just a steady player. He is in the best form of his career but criticism of his final ball, in the past, has been merited. I think he’s improved that part of his game of late.

[My_Wife_Camille]

Some people still think he’s slow. Let that sink in for a moment...

[Hibs90]

I think he has really improved this season, whether that is due to coaching or experience or even both who knows.
