Winter 2021-22 transfer thread

[RIP]

Probably the day before when told he was going to hearts he said who are hearts! Just the kind of obsessed crap they love over in charity robbing land. Happy to see if he is decent player rather than remember an interview from 4 years ago!

Agree. It was possibly a set up interview knowing that mob.

[Last Minute]

He has deleted all his hearts pictures from Instagram . I hope he has cancelled his subscription to the foundation of hearts also. seemingly his name is in the tunnel at the piggery.

[Hibee Mac]

Which is cringey? Supporters referencing it or professional footballers actually doing it? Either way it’s no big deal.Hearts and their fans obsession with getting players to bad mouth Hibs in their signing interviews.

[keep the faith]

He is. There is no way the majority of our fans think Omeonga is better than any of our midfielders. That’s just daft.

I think he would excell in this side. Every good side needs a heartbeat. The guy who gives the team its tempo and its energy. The guy who moves the ball, then wants it back. Omeonga does that really well. In a way Claros (2nd season) and Fyvie did.
It's a total myth he was poor in his second spell. He came into a poor side with a change of manager and a season which ended suddenly. It became a thing to say he was poor and he most definitely wasn't.

Not sure I am a fan of this sort of stuff.

He will have enough pressure if he signs for us as it is.

I didn’t think he was poor second time round - he just never really got started.

First time he took a few weeks to get fit then since the team needed him badly he was thrown in and stayed in, playing very well.

Second time, he took his few weeks to get fit but we’d also signed Docherty. It was harder for him to get into the team at that point. He had the odd decent performance but his last one was that derby debacle, and it lingers a bit in the memory.

Omeonga’s a cracking player imo and I’d have welcomed him back. Our central midfielders (well, the ones we play anyway) are all a bit samey.

[HibsTYT]

Anyone heard about a young winger from Leeds on loan?

[Hibernian Verse]

Not sure I am a fan of this sort of stuff.

If he gets pressure from fans I'll find that behaviour absolutely bizarre (if unsurprising). He will be a Hibs player, and should get our support.

What’s his Twitter name? The only one I can see is a fake.

I was told in the summer about Liam McCaron from Leeds but thought it seemed unlikely due to Tonnesson being mentioned as Doigs replacement and they looked to play similar roles.

Can’t help but feel the last thing we need though is another 20 year old on loan.

If it's what's happened, what prompts someone to fake a screenshot relating to Hibs and some barely known Leeds youngster?

Not saying it's the crime of the century, just can't for the life of me work out why you'd do it, how bored you must be, or what they get out of it.

Supposedly other Scottish clubs were interested in aberdeens latest signing but they beat them to him.

Everyone assuming it’s us.

Wonder if that’s the case, he is a winger after all and has decent goals/assists this season.

Was he lined up for Boyles replacement?

Hardly the biggest crime in the world and was a very Hearts thing to do given their obsession with HibsHe could easily fix it by saying they told him to say it and they made all the players have a pop at hibs in interviews. He'll have the hibs fans lapping it up that he's show them up as obsessed and he'll address that.

Who is doing that?

[Unseen work]

How can Melkersen play in a bounce game without a work permit?

If he’s injured along with Clarke that’s a real worry.

Need a another couple of players of real quality to come in - said it a couple of times but I think we’ll see McGrath at us last minute again.

We knew he wanted to go south and he wanted to wait as long as possible for it to happen so made no approach. Aberdeen we’re naive, got annoyed and have now moved onto other targets.

We’ve not sold Scotty Allan yet as he’ll be used in the deal.

[Broken Gnome]

Would it not be best that any word of injuries was backed up by as much detail as possible, rather than just the vaguest of information that prompts twenty posts all asking the same thing?

Also...would Porteous be allowed to play if he was suspended? Not sure how it works with bounce games

All I would add (because I’m tapping out now) is I don’t want to say who told me at the club for obvious reasons.

Why not? Have you seen enough after 60 mins last week or have you followed his season closely in the MLS?

Remember Boyle’s first year at at Hibs, it wasn’t wonderful. Imagine if that Boyle had been Boyle’s replacement now, you would be boiling.

We may have to accept that no one will really be replacing Boyle, more that we are using the funds from his transfer to re-jig the squad. Possibly strengthening the team overall by doing so.

Mueller is part of that equation.

It’s been suggested I’m trying to be a ****ing hero amongst other things.

I’d just like to clarify that I genuinely only posted as I felt it was relevant enough to share on the forum. I’ve not set out to upset anyone. I just repeated word for word what I was told.

All I would add (because I’m tapping out now) is I don’t want to say who told me at the club for obvious reasons.

I wouldn’t worry tbh. You’ve posted what you’ve been told and that’s that. As I said someone else posted some thing different but all in all it’s about a potential injury to a new player regardless. I do hover hope he walked off [emoji2957]

No big deal but the poster was out of order imho!

We can't badger everyone who comes on here to post rumours otherwise we'd have very little to talk about.

[CapitalGreen]

Why not? Have you seen enough after 60 mins last week or have you followed his season closely in the MLS?

Remember Boyle’s first year at at Hibs, it wasn’t wonderful. Imagine if that Boyle had been Boyle’s replacement now, you would be boiling.

We may have to accept that no one will really be replacing Boyle, more that we are using the funds from his transfer to re-jig the squad. Possibly strengthening the team overall by doing so.

Mueller is part of that equation.

His comment was in reference to Mitchell not Mueller.

This was late in the game and Mueller was shattered.

It wasn't that late and there was a similar, though less obvious incident in the 1st half. As Greenginger says in a later post, sometimes speed over 10 yards can be enough. I'm only pointing out i dont see Mueller as a like for like replacement for Boyle.

I imagine he'll play LM and rotate with Doig. Not sure Maloney fancies Lewis in that role as it seems quite demanding physically, hence the need for depth in it.

We seen Campbell getting absolutely destroyed at Celtic Park so the need to get someone who can play it properly with Doig is important.

Switch with Doig at LWB.

Probably means he can play left back, right back, left wing back, right wing back, left wing or right wing.

Great to have people in the squad that can do that.

[Unseen work]

Must admit I was impressed with Mitchell at Hearts when I saw him play. Think hearts fans making out they don’t like him are kidding themselves a bit, they were raving about him.

The only things I’m a bit perplexed about is the fact he’s mainly a left wing back and we have Doig, Mackie and others that can play there.

Is he coming in now as we expect Doig to leave?

We needed far more positions to improve than that one imo.

Hopefully still another couple to come in and about 6 to leave.

I think we can forget about Mackie, he wasn’t genuine competition for Doig.

From what I’ve heard from Hearts fans, their opinion has been exactly what I remembered about him.

Excellent in his first spell, poor in the second but it was disrupted with a lot of injuries and never really got going.

I’m pretty open minded about him. I think he could be good, or *****, or hardly play at all……

I think he can play up and down the left or right hand side though and that flexibility is good to have in the squad.

To be fair to Ron he’s definitely passed the cheque book to Ben too look after whilst he’s away back to states.

Can't see McGregor or Stevenson leaving this window or in the summer. Both will likely be happy to provide the cover and dressing room experience to Maloney while neither will batter on his door asking why they aren't playing. Very valuable people to have around the club for what is the final 18 months of their contracts.

Murphy will be here till the summer as I reckon we wouldn't find anyone able to take his contract off our hands, while Maloney seems to fancy Wright and perhaps he now has a final few months to save his Hibs career or do enough to earn a move in the summer when he's out of contract.

Still need another quality attacker imo to play behind the striker, similar to Barrie McKay. Being greedy a forward thinking centre mid that plays at a high tempo.

I’d have had him in there before other players recently but probably the right decision.

He’s not the player he was and wouldn’t be the answer going forward.

[SMAXXA]

Is he the right back we signed from that football academy?

Yeah that’s the lad. I am trying to be vague as report i got was the black player for Hibs (assume I can say that) was excellent. Played in midfield unless it was the ‘trialist’ and someone else. He’s a defender as you say but has played midfield aswell so just assuming it was him but could be wrong.

Sorry probably no help at all.

[Shrekko]

I suppose the position might be Doig’s at Left Wing back.

Think the problem we have is that Doig and Lewis are very different types- and if SM prefers 3 at the back we probably needed to get someone more similar to Doig in to add competition or to be his natural replacement if he leaves.

I really don't think we've had much of an attacking threat down the left so far so to me it's a signing that makes total sense. Obviously the hope is that Mitchell can still be the player who first arrived at Hearts- I thought he stood out for them the first time he played against us.

Melkerson was injured and carried off today in a bounce game vs raith rovers.

Another poster has suggested that he was injured and walked off.

I have said carried off and someone else has walked off.

We are both in agreement Melkerson was injured.

Like everyone here, I hope he walked off and wasn’t carried off.

I have messaged the person back who told me he was carried off to seek clarity and they replied - “yeah mate, he was carried off”.

Just to clarify, I’ve been told he was carried off.

Cheers! Thanks for posting! You are only posting what you've been told and I hope this doesn't put you off posting information again.

I find these arguments pretty pointless. How many times have we seen a player initially being supported off the pitch (carried off in some peoples eyes), who then reach the side of the pitch to put weight on their injured foot/leg and then hobble initially before walking off the injury? As they say, there are different shades of grey. Those who saw Melkerson leaving the pitch will describe it in various ways and to be honest it doesn't matter how positive/negative they view it. All that matters is whether he's fit enough for the next game and I'll leave that to the experts who know about this sort of thing.

[Nevi_SOL]

Regardless if he walked or carried off. Any news on the team, how melkerson played, scorers

We’ve not really seen what sort of player he’s like over a consistent spell due to injuries. First season was very forgetful but then this one he was flying.

Hope he gives us what we all think he will.

[Hibees1973]

Mitchell is a good signing and straight into the first 11. Hope that with his speed and energy he will be used in an attacking role. Typical of the Yams to restrict him by playing him in defence.

It's vital that between now and the end of the transfer window we ship 5 or 6 out. We now have an inflated squad with so many surplus players. If we are unable to move 5 or 6 on sharpish, discontentment could sweep through the squad through lack of game time.

It's now clear with so many incoming players we are in the middle of transition. Might take until the start of next season for the squad and team structure to take shape, but I know most of us are impatient.

Watched his highlights. Very fast and decent end product. Dare I say he looked similar to Boyle.

Mind you, they highlight videos could potentially make me look the same way ��
Probably a load of crap this rumour, What is not is Somerville is potentially a very good prospect. Quick and direct. Very highly thought of at Leeds however has limited opportunities as out of all the areas of the park they are strongest in wide areas. A loan move to Hibs rather than Rangers would be a good career move for the boy at this time.

Allan, Hallberg, Mackie, Gogic will all leave this window I suspect, perhaps with the Boyle fee in the bank a few of the players may be looking for a decent pay off?

Would also think that we would probably be happy to accept offers for Drey Wright, Jamie Murphy & Darren McGregor if they arose.

[Libby Hibby]

Whilst I think this window has been pretty good for the squad, I can’t help think that we still need an experienced central midfielder. I’ve mentioned before James McCarthy but I suppose we would need to buy him outright due to the loan agreement with Celtic for Henderson in place which would probably scupper any deal.

Where will he fit in on the right? Cadden has arguably been our best player the last two months.

He’s not replacing Cadden, if he’s going to play from the right it would be one up where Boyle was playing on the right of the three.

I’m not really sure where we intend to use him.

I can’t really see him playing right wing and replacing CM though? He must be brought in to play on the left, surely. The problem with that is Doig is too weak defensively behind him.

Here’s a player that is out of favour at his current club with his contract ending soon and knows our management team.

Robert Snodgrass.

Think he’d be absolutely perfect for the role behind the striker and has bags of ability, getting on a bit now but could more than do a job, not sure we’d sign someone that age anymore though which would be a bit silly to overlook imo.

Him or another who is out of favour and quality - Yan Dhanda, he’s a lot more like the sort out board will go for

Where is Robert Snodgrass these days?

Good player but getting on a bit now eh?

I think Henderson will be our no.10 (not that we are playing with one at the moment).

[Ronniekirk]

Pretty sure SM said last week Mitchell was not a replacement for Boyle, and we would be looking to get someone else in who was

Correct he did say that

Do both us and Bushiri need to agree to a permanent transfer or has the player already pre-agreed?

34 now. Doesn't fit our signing policy at all.

Currently at West Brom and yes he’s 34, but I just look at the impact Arfield and Davis, Scott brown too still have and think he’d do well here.

Think that position is made for him behind the striker. Wing backs bombing on given him room to move infield and create.

I think he’d get alot of goals and assists

Fee is agreed with the club. I suspect the player will have a say in where his future lies though. You would think he will have indicated he wants a permanent move for us to go through all the bother.

I'd take him on a one-year deal. We've seen the impact older players can make in the dressing room in the past, and Snodgrass is a good guy and a grafter.

Think the wages might be more problematic though.

How easy it is it to carry Snodgrass off the pitch do we think?

Got to be the worst rumour I’ve seen in a while.

Being a toon fan, and following all their fan accounts on social media, I swear Newcastle have been linked with about 100+ players in the last 3 weeks alone.

By an absolute mile, really hope it’s someone we’re considering.

To pass on a player like him because he’s in the final stages of his career would be madness imo.

Signing young players is all well and good but why does experience in the final third almost get forgotten about? Everyone wants experience in defence and midfield, attacking is just as important as they’ll have a know how and composure.

His touch, vision, crossing, set peices and goal scoring ability would be unmatched. He would also fill the larger than life personality that Boyle left.

From the wording at the time it seemed to me that everything had been agreed so if we want it to happen it happens. In saying that, if for whatever reason he really didn’t want to stay I doubt we’d sign him. If he was wanting a move elsewhere because he does well, there’s no reason we couldn’t do what happened with Jack Hendry in the summer and sign him and sell him again in the same window

Allan Forrest turns down St Johnstone after fee agreed.

Wonder if he doesn't fancy the fight to stay in the league?
I'm sure Martindale said the other week Forrest wasn't likely to sign a new deal at Livi because he wanted to play more regularly.

Sign Snoddy : great player : class 'tache.
