Summer 2020-21 transfer thread

[tonyrougier123]

Simon Murray anyone?

Without a doubt yes!!

[Just_Jimmy]

Simon Murray anyone?Absolute. We really need some energy up top. He'd at least work hard

[ahibby]

Disagree. I think he is a loss, he’s a good player. I think he gets a hard time for not looking that fit.

I agree I think there will be a backlash when his replacement gives us nothing at all, at least Horgan laid on a couple in the small number of games he's played this season.

[ahibby]

Not fussed about Horgan moving. Has some good moments but doesn't produce it very often.

and you think Murphy will do better?

[we are hibs]

We need at least 2 midfielders.

[flash]

I do.

[Vault Boy]

We need at least 2 midfielders.

I'd agree with this. Deep lying playmaker and another very physical, defensively strong midfielder. Ideally they'd be able to do both, but that's easier said than done.

Need Newell or Hallberg out first, I'd imagine.

[HendoDelivered]

JR says nothing imminent any time soon, may have to move players on before being able to bring any new faces in, nothing happening atm.

[madhatter]

That is bad news...hopefully we can get stuff moving as our squad is poor. Midfield, especially without Gogic in there, is absolutely stinking. No creativity and drive at all.

[Unseen work]

McCrorie proving today he’s a really good player, both on the ball and defensively. A big loss losing him to Aberdeen.

We really need some quality additions in midfield.

Gogic returning will only reduce the creativity and drive further.

We havent got a game until the 12th now tbf.

Need 2 central midfielders with energy and the ability to control a game.

The impression I get is he is a leader too (reflected in him being captain for the Scotland Under 21s) something we are sorely lacking in the first XI at the moment.

[madhatter]

Gogic returning will only reduce the creativity and drive further.

Not if we clear out some of the poor players in midfield and get 2 new midfielders. If we have Gogic playing, our other 1-2 centre mids should be playing higher up and creating options for Boyle and Murphy/Wright. Hallberg and Newell were far too deep the whole game and Mallan is the same, drops deep to play the ball to the fullbacks...

We need signings, we will struggle to get top 4 with our squad. We have very little up top especially when injuries hit and we have a very slow midfield who take their time doing nothing.

Sad as it is, watching this Hibs team almost puts me to sleep. Only thing keeping me awake is my frustration.

[flash]

Well we wanted McCrorie and didn't get him. Murphy replaces Hirgan so clearly we still need to get another midfielder in.

[Cod Boy]

McCrorie was ok but wouldn’t judge him against a powder puff midfield who can’t tackle.

[CapitalGreen]

McCrorie was ok but wouldn’t judge him against a powder puff midfield who can’t tackle.

According to Aberdeen fans he was excellent in their previous games too, they are delighted they have signed him.

[Chip shop Joe]

Mcrorie looked a real class act and given his age, size and comfort on the ball would have been an absolutely brilliant signing for us and is for Aberdeen.

McInnes was waxing lyrical about RM in the post match interview on Sky.

Defo the one who got away.

Now that Horgan is away, we don't have a player that runs at defenders, and it's essential against teams like aberdeen.

[CMurdoch]

McCrorie was ok but wouldn’t judge him against a powder puff midfield who can’t tackle.

I've watched all of McCrorie's games for Aberdeen since he signed and he is exactly what we needed.
Big, strong, steady, switched on, aware, full of running and a leader. Can also slot in at centre half when required.
Aberdeen have won a watch with this guy and along with Ferguson he forms a strong midfield.

We badly need someone else to go alongside Gogic. I’m sure they’ll be working towards that but it’s so obvious. Central midfield has been a disaster ever since the end of the 2017/18 season. Aberdeen have got the third best squad in the league by quite a distance, imo.

Yep, their strength in depth is insane with a lot of options for McInnes to chose from.

He's a cracking talent but seems to always be blowing out his arse after half an hour.

Murphy

Didn't see that in his half hour yesterday, but i hope he improves with time. Some players come in and buzz off the adrenaline of thier debut, Murphy didnt do that at all.

[500miles]

I'd like us to try and get Jamie Lindsay from Rotherham. Ex celtic and Ross County . Wasn't a regular starter for Rotherham as they got promoted, although did feature a good bit, so I think he may find opportunities in the championship limited. We should at least enquire about a loan.

Hibs problems are with , Allan being like a player down at the moment.
Newell good in spells and equally poor in spells.
Hallberg just not what we need.

I agree with many on here we need 2 midfielders in , i actually think the rest of the team is in a good place .
The question is who to go for .
Allan Campbell at motherwell is one who fits the bill would cost a few bob but in the final season of his contract.
Im sure Hibs are active and would not suprise me if more of our midfield are asked to move on .

I think it's because he wants to go.

No use keeping a player here who wants the move. He's also in the final year of his contract. So if we can get a fee for him may as well do it now.

If it's Wycombe he's moving to then fair enough. Wants a crack at playing in the English Championship.

Horgan simply isn’t good enough IMO.

Fast feet, quite tricky but very little end product. Coupe decent assists at Livi but it happens nowhere near often enough.

Wish him all the best but we need much better then Horgan.

Said when he left Ross County we should be all over him, he has bags of energy and covers every blade of grass aswell as good on the ball and scoring goal.

Would love to see him here but thought he was getting on really well at Rotherham?

Sometimes I think fans should be the scouts :greengrin

He can add to the list of centre mids I think we should have bought along with Tshibola, Ohara and Glen Kamara.

To be honest, I've not watched him down south, just when he was up here, but his transfermarkt page shows he was mainly benched after November.

Yesterdays benches were an interesting comparison. They brought on Main, McGeouch and McGinn. You could easily argue that all 3 would start for us never mind be on the bench (appreciate everyone will have their own views on each player and what they bring).

I was actually taken aback at the strength of their match day squad. Comfortably the 3rd best squad and probably the 3rd most expensive.

Fingers crossed they do not finish 3rd!

This was my thought too. They’ve got a very good squad for this level. Depth everywhere. Our recruitment has been poor for too long.

As horrible as it is to admit, most of their 2nd and 3rd choices would start or at least be close to a start for us.

Theyre currently what we need to strive to be like whether we like it or not and it proves the importance of having options, not just relying on one or two.

Thing that stands out too is - you know what most of them are in the squad to do.

McGeouch recycles the ball & keeps possession
McRorie wins the ball in the areas you need to win it in.
Ferguson gets you up the pitch and wins the niggly fouls in dangerous areas for you.
McGinn & Hayes stretch you wide.

There's not too many Hallberg & Slivka type of signings in that list - the guys who you think "there's probably a player in there but I can't really pin down what type"

That has to be a massively expensive squad.

That has to be a massively expensive squad.

They’re average first team salary for season 19/20 was reportedly £140k per annum (same as Hearts) compared to ours at £120k pa. Motherwell were reported as £60k pa.

We had a better first XI than them in the second half of 2017/18, but as usually happens with Hibs, it fell apart pretty quickly after that. I don't like McInnes and I don't like his boring tactics, but he's done a good job of keeping them ticking along when they lose good players. When we lose good players more often than not we buy bad replacements.

[Gaffer1875]

If there’s any chance we could get Alan Campbell from Motherwell we should go for it. Young player, already played a lot of games, knows the league, very combative player and almost a guaranteed sell on (for those who are precious about this point) [emoji6]

I wouldn’t start Main ahead of Doidge. Niall McGinn wouldn’t start for us either. He’s nae better than Horgan, and Horgan gets slated on here regularly.

Life is about opinions. Is Doidge that much better than Main? Don't forget Doidge is our main striker and Main is a non starter for Dons at moment (Possibly their 3rd striker after Cosgrove). I'd be certain that Main would start before Gullan at the moment if we were to play 2 upfront. Hopefully Gullan gets the chance to prove his worth.

We can agree to disagree about McGinn. I'd have him in our team every day before Horgan/Wright. McGinn has played regularly for a team that finishes 2nd and 3rd every season and gets to semi/finals most seasons. Horgan is not a guaranteed starter for us who have most finished 6th/7th each season (sadly).

I agree with you. As well as they do, I see McInnes as their weak point solely based on the style of the eye bleeding football they play. The constant time wasting/falling over/fouling. Completely understand it is effective as seen yesterday but they should be blowing teams away. To be fair to McInnes, a bit like Williamson, if you want entertainment, go to the cinema.

I don't get this love in for the Aberdeen squad. Only a few weeks back they were in crisis, now they're a shoo in for 3rd place! They've chopped & changed all over the place but more by luck than good judgement they & McInnes have found a way to win. Hedges wasn't getting a game, comes on as sub & scores with a deflection & now he's a star. Hernandez is bought to replace Logan, turns out he's no better so they switch to a back 3. The boy Hoban is slower than me but we failed to expose him yesterday. Ojo, who was to be the fulcrum of their team, along with Bryson, has disappeared, along with Bryson! They have a strong midfield but Ferguson & McCrorie are much more suited to away games & the destructive side of things than creativity. Dare I say it, we've been very Aberdeen like in the last few games & plenty on here were complaining. A freak penalty cost us our unbeaten record yesterday & now suddenly we admire & want to be like Aberdeen!

Is Doidge that much better than Main? Absolutely, by an country mile. As is Nisbet.

McGinn, even at his older age is still a better player than Horgan also.

When Horgan first joined I thought he was a real threat and would do well once he got the final ball and confidence sorted but it just never came. I don’t think Iv seen a player with as little composure as him in a goal scoring position.

I often hated how he would always cut back onto his right before playing a very poor cross which defenders lapped up.

I’ll got out on a limb and say there’s absolutely no chance we could get Campbell. We couldn’t get anywhere close to a fee for him and I very much doubt he would want to join us, he will have far better offers, especially financially.

Motherwell are also in no position to sell after taking in 4.5 million in transfers this year.

I did both. Saw Tenet on Saturday and Hibs on Sunday. It was a really confusing story where the boy wanted to go backwards through time and prevent a disaster capable of starting world war 3. Tenet followed a similar theme.

He looked well off the pace when he came on.

[B.H.F.C]

Thats a scary looking squad. They'll finish 3rd by a country mile this season.

If they finish third, but it certainly won’t be by a country mile. They beat us in a tight game, that’s it. I’ve watched them three times. All tight games, two of which they won which could just as easily have went the other way.

Aberdeen have generally punched their weight over the last few years. If we can do similar this year there will be very little between us and them. We’ve accrued more points under Ross since he came in so, under him, we’ve clearly developed a fairly similar level of consistency.

[weecounty hibby]

What we need is a consolidation in the managers position. The Aberdeen squad has been assembled by the manager over a seven year period. That helps no end. In that time we have had, Fenlon, Stubbs, Lennon, Hecky, Ross. May be slightly out with that but surely folks can see the benefits Inna stable manager. Fwiw I think Ross is on the right track and we need to give him time

I thought they were impressive. They do what they do and do it very well. They won the midfield after the first half hour, got ahead and made us look very toothless while having a few chances second half to kill off the game off. It isn’t attacking football but their game management is excellent and you simply have to admire their consistency over the last 7 years or so.

There’s more than one way to skin a cat, and I hope we can find a different way to match their “success” and consistency. Mcinnes has our number, it’s long since time to change that.

For all they have a strong squad now, they've lost a lot of good players along the way, quite a few for no fee too.

Stability in the managerial position has helped them keep a bit of continuity and a solid team on the park throughout constant rebuilding.

I'm not that big a fan of McInnes or the rough, defensive style he adopts and I think it might soon be time for Aberdeen to make a change if they want to go up a level.

But managerial stability can normally only be a good thing.

How can they possibly go up a level? The sheep board will rightly be absolutely delighted the job he’s done and stayed loyal to them when the huns and Sunderland came calling. I’ve hopes JR will do a similar job for us over time.

Do better in Europe.

Make a stronger challenge to the Old Firm.

Win more cup competitions.

Are any of these totally unrealistic aims?

Any team winning all of their domestic and European trophies should be looking to do it again the following season only by a bigger margin and with more style.

I don’t think Aberdeen right now are at the pinnacle of where they could be. They have a lot of good players, are comfortably better than us, but play a self-limiting style of football that will pretty much consolidate them where they are but no more.

And if it was Hibs I wouldn’t want that, even if I could easily get used to being comfortably ahead of Aberdeen and Hearts.

[The 90+2]

Do better in Europe.

Make a stronger challenge to the Old Firm.

Win more cup competitions.

Are any of these totally unrealistic aims?

I think all three are unrealistic tbh. You look who they draw in Europe and they’re never going to challenge the old firm ever. Better football is probably most realistic. They got rid of Calderwood who was gung ho and got stung for years after though. I would love a mcinnnes period at Hibs.

[Stokesy's on fire]

I don't get this love in for the Aberdeen squad. Only a few weeks back they were in crisis, now they're a shoo in for 3rd place! They've chopped & changed all over the place but more by luck than good judgement they & McInnes have found a way to win. Hedges wasn't getting a game, comes on as sub & scores with a deflection & now he's a star. Hernandez is bought to replace Logan, turns out he's no better so they switch to a back 3. The boy Hoban is slower than me but we failed to expose him yesterday. Ojo, who was to be the fulcrum of their team, along with Bryson, has disappeared, along with Bryson! They have a strong midfield but Ferguson & McCrorie are much more suited to away games & the destructive side of things than creativity. Dare I say it, we've been very Aberdeen like in the last few games & plenty on here were complaining. A freak penalty cost us our unbeaten record yesterday & now suddenly we admire & want to be like Aberdeen!

There was a debate at the start of the season on here about where we would finish. I said behind aberdeen. Purely for reasons like above. It's always a hard luck story with hibs. Could have beaten them up there last season, could have beaten them on Sunday. Problem is we don't beat them. They beat us more often because they dig in and create their own luck. It'll be psychological it happens time and time again. That's the kind of thing I'd say when I used to get slagged at school for hibs losing, aye we missed a penalty, had a man sent off, had more possession, created more chances, it's all irrelevant. We got beat off them again. And we need to rectify it!

Beat them 3 0 last season drew 1 1 up there when they scored late then beat us 3 1 when we had a guy sent off when winning. Hibs are still work in progress and the good thing about Sundays game is that it clearly showed what needed improving. They are physical, strong but pretty dull under Mcinness. He should be 3rd most years given the squad he has and the money to spend. We need to challenge that like we did 3 seasons back.

That’s the annoying thing though. When we lose our better players it takes us 3 or 4 seasons to recover, we spend so long being a “work in progress”. When Aberdeen lose their best players they seem to find very adequate replacements without having to spend over the odds. Players like Lewis Ferguson, Cosgrove etc.

Our recruitment has to improve (which I think it is this season) as it’s been pretty poor since the bulk of the Scottish cup winning squad moved on.

[Leitherhibs]

If it's right that Allan Campbell is out of contract in May, we should move heaven and earth to get him now. Motherwell not in a position where they need to sell, but doesn't make business sense for them to hang on if he's not going to renew.

I’d be happy to try and structure a deal where Motherwell will make most of their money when we sell him, like the McGinn deal. It’s a sideways move for Campbell though so not sure he will be all that interested, especially when he’s likely to be in demand.

Sam Cosgrove managed to score in only 1 of his first 22 games for Aberdeen. He eventually hit a form, but would he have got the time at Hibs? Drey Wrights played about 2 and a half games and he's been written off by some already as hopeless.

Doidge wasn't a huge amount better than Cosgrove initially, stats-wise. Think it was 2 in 15 and they were both league cup group games.

He might see it as a step up in stature of club and therefor a platform to follow the path that McGinn has gone down. They're bottom this season though, and have already lost Turnbull, I can't see him moving on yet.

Unless ****ing Aberdeen go in for him.

We are always a work in progress. We're not far away from being better than the sheep. We never are tbh. Problem is we don't seem to actually have the desire to spend that wee bit extra to make sure we are better than them. It's not the transfer fees for me that we need to up, it's the wages. Offering that wee bit more than our rivals will get us better players, and will make them choose us over them.

Very true. The problem is for a club like that living hand to mouth is they can’t afford more than one year deals for players so loans are possibly more effective. If he’s not in Millwalls plans be nice to ask the question to them from our perspective.

Fair enough saying that, but where does the money come from for these increased wages ? Tbf to Ron Gordon increasing the wage budget is exactly what he presented at the AGM, although it was mainly based on more fans turning up. Of course that all depends on the team getting higher up the league and dare I say it playing (more) attractive football.

Scott understood that with the likes of McGinn and McGeough ahead of him, his opportunities would be limited, and it was better for his career to move on

I can see the point of buying a football club if you’re a diehard fan who’s got money to do it, even if you don’t really have enough to properly bankroll them but it’s your passion and you’ll give your all. I just don’t get why a guy 3,000 miles away in the USA would want to own a club who he has no emotional ties to and not really enough wealth to make any tangible difference? He may come good though so I’ll keep the faith.

Anyway I’ll be in charge next week when I win the £139m tonight on the lottery 😊.

Can't argue with any of that, wondered the same myself. Even if won it tonight I would put money in, but not buy Hibs. I wouldn't want folk like me complaining I owned the club and wasn't putting millions in !

Can't see McGeady now Murphy is signed up. Personally hope there is nothing in it, centre mid x 2, centre back, striker, keeper. Another winger nowhere near top of the priority and no doubt McGeady cost a fair bit.

He's been a standout every time I've watched Hamilton, understood why he moved on but he's the snap at your heels energetic midfielder we need right now, he'd do well with us now.

Fair play if you’ve seen much of Hamilton. Can’t say I have as a Hibs fan.

I was under the impression he had done quite well there. Certainly didn’t see any “rank” match reports.

Maybe I’d always just held out hope the lad would turn out a player, liked his attitude, seemed a decent wee tenacious midfielder at Hibs without ever really getting a run of matches.

Wouldn’t ever describe Hallberg as tenacious and he seems to be first choice stand in at the moment.

If you go back a couple of pages on the PM transfer thread, it was posted on there first and then the screenshot from HibsCentral's Twitter was posted after. :aok:

[Unseen work]

Mcgeady would be a brilliant signing however seems a very odd one given we’ve just signed Murphy and they’re very similar players - Both are over 30, don’t have much running ability now and both play off the left more suited to a 433, can’t see either playing left of a 4.

Im confused, is there any potential those two random names could be coming? Is it a genuine rumour from the PM board, completely made up or hopefully suggestions?

Also seems like Fraser Murray is going to Dunfermline and Horgan to Wycombe will be completed soon too.

I imagine Ben Stirling, Innes Murray etc will be our the door too

Agree to a certain extent but Hibs still need good players. Concern about McGeady is he's not really a runner and is of a similar ilk to the plethora of midfielders we have who are not particularly mobile.

A good midfield can cover the pitch quickly. We dont really have anyone who can do that, particularly, centrally. For me that's a major oversight in our recruitment and not sure it will be sorted by 1 signing.

He’s a wide player though and that’s where he’s played for the majority of his career.

Anybody we sign, I hope we sign to play in their natural position. We have a tendency to try and fit folk in and that’s why we are unbalanced IMO. We’ve seen it already with Drey Wright. He’s a right winger who we’ve already had playing up front and at left wing back. He’s not shown anything yet whereas Gogic and Nisbet, who have played in their actual positions have. Maybe Wright will just turn out to be poor but he won’t be helped if he doesn’t play the position that we watched him playing in when we decided to sign him.

I could see McGeady sitting deeper more of a roaming role to get foot on the ball and start play definately technical enough to do this.

Can you have that role and Gogic? Not sure it ever worked that well whenever McGeough & Bartley played together. Which isn’t to say you can’t play one of them over the other depending on the opposition.

[ancient hibee]

If it's true about McGeady I think it's beginning to look like we are signing players who have been good and may turn out ok which is not the right thing to do.

[CMurdoch]

Mcgeady would be a brilliant signing however seems a very odd one given we’ve just signed Murphy and they’re very similar players - Both are over 30, don’t have much running ability now and both play off the left more suited to a 433, can’t see either playing left of a 4.



Murphy is on a 2 season deal and when it ends he will be 32 years of age.
McGeady is approaching 34 and a half.

I don’t know any other set of fans with such an obsession about age. You wouldn’t fill a whole team with 34 year olds but there isn’t a problem having ‘older’ players.

Young first team keepers at this level are an exception. Playing regular first team football would be better for him and he’s not going to start for us right now. A loan would probably be best for him.

[Vault Boy]

Dabrowski is better on loan playing games than sitting on the bench. Makes sense to me.

I agree, it's all about getting games at his age.

I'm sure he'd be a fine deputy, but it would do his development no good whatsoever. Rocky has been superb for us this season, but he's out of contract at the end of it, so who knows what will happen between now and then.

Bring in another team's player to probably spend most of the season on the bench, get Kevin some game time out on loan.

Your missing the point. We obviously see potential in Dabrowski as a future number 1. So rather than have him sitting on the bench, he goes on loan to get games under his belt while we bring in a cheap backup.

Chris Burke is an exception to the rule though, by and large.

My issues isn't with age - it's with the combination of age with attributes and position. Wingers normally need a decent amount of pace to be good, and when that pace starts to go you have to ask yourself if there's still enough left. McGeady was an outstanding player, as recently as 2018-2019 he was playing well in league 1. But what has he really done since then?

Centre-backs, defensive midfielders, big strikers - I'm all for having a bit of experience in there, and in these positions you can tailor your game around diminishing pace. It's harder to do when you're a speedy wide player, which McGeady and Murphy have both been in their day. They may still have enough left to be effective now, but I think it is reasonable to ask the question as to whether or not they are likely to have enough left going forward. Your squad can suffer for not having a sprinkling of older players throughout it but I don't think you look like you're going to go anywhere if you're weighted down with experienced wingers.

Kevin McAllister was a cracking player to a ripe old age. Ribery and Robben were very effective for Bayern to a decent age. Giggs changed his game and eventually played more centrally as his pace went. But in general, the football world isn't awash with happy ending stories of signing "experienced wingers".

Hibs haven't looked like they've been building anything medium or long term since Stubbs left. It's been panic buys, sticking plasters and anything that might have looked longer term (like Mallan) simply hasn't worked out. Are we going to build a team around Murphy and McGeady that is going to be in a better place than we are now in 2-3 years? No. They're short term signings to get us through another year or so. I'm not against that on the odd occasion but Hibs seem to be weighing heavier in that direction than I'm comfortable with right now.

[RossScott1991]

Hibs need good players. Regardless of age.

Top end of the pitch we are lacking any guile and creativeness. Mcgeady comes he could easily play centrally behind strikers also in the Allan role.

Good players are always welcome, Not looking into next year or year after. Need good players in who will help us push on now and get us European spots so we can grow as a club and start bridging the gap with Aberdeen.

[MagicSwirlingShip]

All this talk of Hibs changing a “signing policy” is off the mark IMO.

Guys like Murphy and Mcgeady are experienced pro’s who have excelled at this level (and arguably higher)

Their nous and know how will do well to bring along the younger, less experienced members of our squad.

If we want a winning team on the park finding the right balance between youth and experience will be key, as will blooding the younger players at select moments.

[Robbo6-2]

Jamie Murphy will be great signing for us.

My prediction is he will score 10+ goals and be our player of year.

[Paul1642]

Simon Murray is signing for League 2 Queens park.

He will quite possibly be the top scorer in that league. Good player but now what we need.

[MagicSwirlingShip]

He’s 22, not that young. The boy we’re bringing in on loan is 24. Really not much of a difference.

If we’re saying Dabrowski isn’t good enough to be our back up keeper now, then he’s never going to be.

This lad dicker has 30 first team appearances under his belt, quite the difference from Dabrowski.

Plenty keepers develop out on loan from their parent club then come back and chase the #1 jersey.

The point I was making is that Murphy isn't old.
He should be in his prime for the entirety of his Hibs contract and has no history of injuries.
Therefore shouldn't be grouped with McGeady age wise.

IMO Ross will not be bringing McGeady to Hibs. He has replaced Horgan with Murphy and will now be looking to make other upgrades elsewhere in the team. All of his signings have made sense to date and with Murphy already here, McGeady wouldn't.

Another picturesque stop on his European tour, Turin, Edinburgh & Athens. Lucky guy.
I liked the guy as a player although, like most Hibs supporters, I did feel he should have made more of an impact. I would have kept him and believe he was offered a new contract but probably not on great money.

His new team is playing in the Greek Super League but they will be the equivalent of Hamilton/Livingston etc in the SPFL. Small home attendances, although their ground has a capacity of 14,500. Status wise, a stepdown from Hibs and he will have to take more of a lead roll, than he ever did at Hibs, if his new club is to avoid relegation. It could be a kind of reckoning for him.

Scott Allan syndrome.
The heat will slow the other players down to Slivka's pace so along with the reduced running it could all work out for him.

On the upside Rocky's contract is up in the summer and this guys contract is up at the same time so we get a swatch at him in the meantime and if he is up to scratch we sign him up on a precontract.

[hibee-boys]

Can't recall anything of note that Hallberg has done since he arrived at Hibs, just don't know what he can/or does bring to the team. Saying that, Slivka was never the answer either.

If he’s that kind of keeper he will be sitting up straight on the bench, good posture with no slouching :wink:

[Unseen work]

Barnes will be signing purely as a cheap back up and to allow us to send Dabrowski on loan to continue his development.

Having Dabrowski on the bench all season would be pointless and make him regress. I really like the look of him and have high hopes

[CMurdoch]

Can't recall anything of note that Hallberg has done since he arrived at Hibs, just don't know what he can/or does bring to the team. Saying that, Slivka was never the answer either.

It's that age old thing that if they were great players they wouldn't be at Hibs.
Think of most Hibs players and you can pick an obvious flaw in them as footballers or physical specimens that holds them back.
It's the reason I laughed at folk on here slagging off Hanlon.
Hanlon is as close to the quality of player that Hibs can have and keep hold of long term.
Any better and we would have lost him long ago.
Slivka could have been a similar standard player for Hibs but Hallberg falls below that quality line and we are stuck with him until 2022 unless we can find another team desperate for an unspectacular midfield player. Hallberg seems to be another who did well until age 21 then couldn't make the massive step up to good quality first team football. His next move will be back home to the St Mirren of his country.

Slivka is very comfortable with the ball at his feet and can deal with being pressed. We just don't have that at all right now.

Slivka is 6'3" as well. Aberdeen team were far taller than the Hibs guys on Sunday and every time we had a corner I thought we had no chance of winning it in the air. A team of midfield midgets.

What makes you think Murphy doesn't have much running ability now? Serious question. I suspect I've seen Murphy much more recently than most on here, quite a few times at Brighton & one thing that couldn't be criticised was his pace & running ability. I recognise that was 2 years ago but I see nothing in his build or athleticism to suggest he's lost that ability.

I think that's the only bad injury he has had and he has been back for 14 months without further bother.
Boyle has had a bad injury in the same time frame but you don't expect him to be finished.
Soutter at Hearts is another kettle of fish, chronic bad injuries denoting a weakness and a likelihood of re occurrence.

I reckon Murphy will do well. Just needs to get up to match speed. Was undeniably poor on Sunday.
Just turned 31 and will leave Hibs when he is 32.
High level performer out wide and up front.
At his best can run through the whole opposition team and score.
Ross is pragmatic and has brought him in to replace Horgan because he thinks Murphy is more consistent in his decision making/crossing and is a good scoring option up front.

Just through speaking with some rangers supporting mates who saw him over pre season and since he came back from his injury, by the sounds of it he’s lost a hard of pace.

I just can’t see him playing left of a 4 and bombing up and down the pitch all game, offering offensively and defensively. Left of a front 3 I think he’d be very good as he can still go past people with his skill and ability.

In a 4 we already lack energy and power, unsure if he’d add to that.

Delighted he’s signed as I think he has a lot of ability but will be interesting to see how he fits into the team, especially if we’re after McGeady too.
