Is it the bottom 2 or 3 that gets relegated?

Cos with the half time results, as it stands they are 3rd bottom......

Bottom 2 go straight down, 3rd bottom goes into a relegation play off

When I made the post they were 4th bottom, but another team has scored just before half time.

Darmstadt are at home to fellow strugglers Erzgebirge next. A draw not good enough for either.

Greuther Fuerth play Heidenheim who are also not safe.

Braunschweig look to have a tough game too.

Could be an interesting last round of fixtures.

I don’t get what people see in him. He’s got a few tap-ins but offers absolutely nothing outside the box. He had 8 touches yesterday that includes the pen and kicking off the 2nd. He had a similar amount v Celtic as well.

I agree. He’s done well for us but I’m yet to be convinced he’s the longer term answer.

I think its his ability to find himself space in the box to score and his ability to put pressure on the defence, its more his off the ball game rather than on the ball. He doesn't really need to do much else if the team are feeding him and he can put it in the net. I think the next 2 games will show his worth anyway.

That is why you are sitting in the Stands and Neil Lennon is sitting in the dug out.

Jamie MacLarens ability to get into goal scoring positions time and time again is outstanding.

I am quite happy with his goals per game ratio so far since he joined us in January.

We still have two very important games to go and there is still a lot of football to be played.

We will have plenty of time to take stock of our options for improving all areas of the team during the close season.

So all Maclaren does is score goals. And regularly.

Think on it.

Almost scored what could have been goal of the season against hearts after bringing it down with a deft touch and hiting it from outside the box https://youtu.be/NSEpAOAIqwA?t=1m

I sit somewhere in the middle on Maclaren. I don't see the idea that he can only pop up and finish in the box is a criticism, thats why we need a Kamberi and a working midfield to create him the chances that he can quite obviously sniff out for himself. Some of the best and most successful teams had a poacher that went quiet for an hour before popping up at the important moments to bury a chance. My biggest concern for him is ruthlessness. The penalty at the weekend and the previous Aberdeen game that saw him miss about 4 amazing opportunities has me wondering a wee bit about how lethal he can be in big moments. But then again he has scored against both the old firm and hearts which is no small achievement.

If you offer me the chance to keep him on a free I'd definitely take it. But if he decides his future lies elsewhere or his club want a massive fee for him then I'm also not broken hearted if we choose to look somewhere else.

Not irreplaceable if we don't get him back tho

I agree with you, but what I would say is he’s pretty good at what he does, and any potential replacement might not hit it off with Kamberi as well. He’s very similar to Cummings, but he has far more discipline to his game, and he’s far less of a maverick.

I agree with this. His partnership with Kamberi as well as Allan seems to spot his runs quite often too might not be easy to replicate should we attempt to find someone else.

They're not looking that good for staying up. One of a few clubs that could yet find themselves relegated or in the play-off spot after the last round of fixtures.

Nervy last day.

I hope they stay up although I would like Maclaren to stay with us.

Maybe but the days of having a player just to poach died out at the end of the 90’s.

It’s a huge cost to have a player in the side like that. He’s averaging 1 in 2 which means you in one game in every 2 you’re effectively carrying a passenger.

I can’t think of a top team that has a player like that, not one. Players like Owen and Fowler’s careers were curtailed massively as teams binned formations that played that way.

Kris Boyd still ratteling them in. Great type to have in the squad when you need to mix it up

Kris Boyd is nothing like Maclaren, certainly not these days anyway. He’s finally learnt how to hold the ball up and have a decent presence.

The previous Boyd however was a perfect example. With a goal record like that, you’d think he’d have been playing for one of the worlds top teams.

His inability to do anything else meant he flopped everywhere else he played outside of Scotland.

It was also the reason he was constantly left out of Old Firm and European games.

They’re out of the relegation positions and have had two great wins in their last two games. They’re still not safe, but their position is a lot healthier than it was. They’re at home and in good form going into the last game. Like you I’d like him to stay, but I’m not sure whether his club staying up will help or hinder that.

Absolutely mind boggling that people are saying we shouldn’t keep Maclaren “because he does nothing out the box”. That’s not the case anyway but even it was the first half of the season we all were going off our heads because stokes and Murray were always standing wide and 15 yards from goal. We now have someone who even when he’s having a quiet game 9/10 is making excellent runs across the face of goal. Tap ins are only tap ins because you’ve got yourself there.

MacLaren has done ok since he arrived...it has suited him and Hibs to have him here.

Using a comedic analogy, to me, and I stress this is my opinion, he’s like the supporting ‘straight man’ to Kamberi.

I see Kamberi capable of holding the ball up and bringing other players into the game, more than I expect Jamie to do.

I would like him to stay to augment our attacking options, but should Kamberi move on I don’t see us structuring our attack based on Jamie being our ‘main’ striker.

I really do think it’s all academic anyway, as Jamie was reported to be on a good wage when he moved from Oz, and pretty sure that Darmstadt wouldn’t let him go for nowt, and that Jamie would not willingly significantly drop his wages to what we can afford.
I can see him remaining in Germany, or if an offer from a championship side comes in, moving there.

CMurdoch

I think his parent club will want him off the wage bill.
The main problem could be getting McLaren to take a wage drop.
If Hibs are keen they will have to convince him and his agent that one step back financially could lead to bigger things in the future.

No way will he get a championship club, unless you mean in Scotland? Want him to stay, wouldn’t be too bothered if he doesn’t though.

I think People that are saying Jamie is just a poacher are doing him a disservice,I think he runs the line intelligently and opens space for Flo and its been a good partnership.If you were offered an international player for a full season that averaged a goal every two games,that would mean a return of 20-25 goals a season (including cup games) are you saying you wouldn’t take him?
With the work he does running the line and linking with Flo ,you can hardly say he’s been a passenger.
He average is better than Boyle and Barker combined,are they passengers too?

Well, for those that did not check, his team finished way up the league after winning again. I still think they might sell since they did not want him when the chips were down. What they hae done though is put a much better value on himm by putting him in the shop window. I hope we can afford him but we should not break the bank for him. I have had a sneaky feeling he may get an offer from the huns.

Finished the season with 8 goals in the Premiership, but more telling is his minutes per goal, which at 112 is the best record in the Premiership. Boyd finished at 137 minutes per goal, Griffiths 133, Edouard was closest at 118 minutes per goal.

His touch let him down a few times yesterday, but the way he comes alive in the box and the space he opens up by playing on the shoulder of the last defender added to his goals to minutes on the pitch ratio means he should be a top target this summer. Plays very well alongside Kamberi too.

That's an interesting stat. It seems the less time he has to think about it, the better he is. He's got that natural instinct as shown by his 3 goals yesterday, but when he's got time and space he can be wasteful, but he also links well with Flo and Allan. I'd take him back.

I was thinking the same myself after that header he should have at least hit the target with against Hearts.
