Johnson’s Four Week Plan - from the Official Site

It would appear that most of the players aren't back till at least 18/6/22 (according to the Hibs website), so it looks unlikely that anybody is going to be let go or sold before then. Johnson's got a big job on his hands; I just hope he gets the chance to build his own team, and that the funds will be made available to do that. There's quite a lot of dross in there, Jack Ross and Sean Maloney have to take a certain amount of responsibility for last season, but for me the players are just as responsible.

Remember him doing the naked walk when John Hughes was being interviewed for TV. Spoke to Graham's mum the week after he did it, she said she was not surprised that he did it.

I’d rather he was looking forward to the derbies than treating them as just another game.
Glad he’s pinpointed them as big games.
Yes, especially as he had a (brief) spell playing for Hearts so it’s an even more obvious angle for journalists to take.
He’s addressing it head on which is good.

I like Lee Johnson's business acumen. Sounds like a good old fashioned wheeler and dealer. Buy the replacement first, and "then" sell the player!
He bought Adam Webster for 2.5m from Ipswich, and "then" sold Aden Flint to Bristol City for £7m. Then 14 months later he sold Adam Webster for 20m, rising to 25m.

I reckon you've hit the nail on the head
I was excited by Shaun Maloney's appointment but you could make the case he was doomed to fail by his choice of assistant manager. Done well, its a specialist role (thinking Mark Venus, John Doolan & Taff)
Reckon a younger manager, with a philosophy to implement, needs a no2 who can relate to the dressing room on the one hand, and who can persuade the boss to work on plan B (even just in emergency/short term) when the players are just really struggling with Plan A.
I agree this LJ team looks a really strong management group on paper. Encouraging times I hope

Apart from his main coaching and performance positions, Owen held a coaching consultancy role with Portuguese club Benfica as a 'Head of Football Development & Research' within the famed BenficaLAB generating significant amounts of 'football coaching research within the club'.[8] He has amassed over 90 publications and book chapters in the area of 'Sport and Football Coaching Science'. Owen is author of the best seller 'Football Conditioning: A Modern Scientific Approach' coaching science book.[9]
Owen also holds an Associate Researcher role with Université de Lyon in France, is an Associate Professor for Wrexham Glyndŵr University and continues as Coach Educator for the England Football Association and the Football Association of Finland
Found the above really intersting, I’ll try not get too excited though as I thought Valerio was exciting and would bring in loads of unknown foreign players 😅

Saw another article and its impressive how many clubs he has been to who have done well and been involved at the business end of a season. Its been a while when we have had people involved in the club who are bringing that winning experience to the club.
Also , like the sound of bringing someone with such a wealth of experience for successful teams on the sports science side. Was concerned about the transition from how we played last season to the more forward thinking style of play but am beginning to feel pretty comfortable about the management team , just need to get the same feeling now about the squad

Anybody know what his role at Watford was? If he was senior goalie coach it would be a bit of a sideways/backwards step coming to do the same job at us. His twitter post makes a big deal of career progression so I would doubt he’d be talking about a move to us like that if it was the same role.

That could tie in with a move to us as first team goalie coach as well then.
We’re also recruiting for an academy goalie coach as well just now so I wonder if he’s been offered a role that would sort of involve goalie coaching at all levels (obviously not him doing it himself, coaching the coaches could be appealing though)

Also mentioned McGeady, isn’t happening as it stands, as he might have some offers from elsewhere, but didn’t say it wouldn’t be happening
Wants to give 2/3 youth players the opportunity in preseason training, see how they shape up
Spoke about Demetri, who can play left wing back or right midfield, as being a good player to have
Tavaras tracked him for a few years, but it’s a big step up from Portugal B division to Scottish Premiership
Also needs to have a few conversations about players who may have to leave

Also mentioned McGeady, isn’t happening as it stands, as he might have some offers from elsewhere, but didn’t say it wouldn’t be happening
Wants to give 2/3 youth players the opportunity in preseason training, see how they shape up
Spoke about Demetri, who can play left wing back or right midfield, as being a good player to have
Tavaras tracked him for a few years, but it’s a big step up from Portugal B division to Scottish Premiership
Also needs to have a few conversations about players who may have to leave
Spoke well and openly
Happy with that if I’m honest, I’m well aware the need for experience but I’m not sure spending the amounts that mcgeady would be after is money well spent, we’ve got options out wide, central midfield for me is where the major money needs spent that’s where we lost games last year and it needs improving with a couple of quality players

Yet his recent comments have not included targeting another midfield player

These were LJ’s actual words, I listened to it. He was satisfied after he met the Hibs people
No stick beating from me, should be on Podcast or listen again
I really enjoyed listening to LJ, but as he was asked, all about winning
I know it was his words, but given apparently he spoke about Mcgeady, other players etc it didn't surprise me the headline they ran with was the most negative of all the potential headlines.

LJ came across well on the radio yesterday, a little earlier Levein said he thought he was a good appointment and that he was worried he’d do a good job at Hibs.

I’m not sure it’s helpful to scrutinise public comments from the manager to see what his priorities are. So many moving parts and we don’t necessarily want to be advertising our intentions while competing for talent with everyone else.

If you only ever catch his interviews live then I applaud you and can see that a disclaimer about having already told the story might help. For normal people who might hear it live. Or might catch an EDITED recap. Or a transcribed version in another form of media. Such a disclaimer is going to be useless.
I guess as they aren't tailoring their output for mr ogywibble you may just have to suck it up. My recommendation? Listen to less live radio. Seems you've had your fill.

Journalists like this sort of thing. Shows he is a good media operator which is surely a big part of his job? A lot of the people listening to Sportsound don't listen to podcasts or watch Hibs TV etc.

Even if he had recycled a story here n there, he’s had 1 training day what new things does he have to talk about? we surely not expecting him to reveal transfer secrets or targets so we can then listen to guys like the poster your replying to bash him when those players sign on elsewhere.
It’s just a moan for moaning’s sake

You should only be binned from forums for threatening other posters. Calling for other posters to be emptied is so schoolboy-like. We're all adults, if you don't like a poster's style then engage with him or ignore. It's really easy.

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed reading the six posts on this thread about Lee Johnson.
Marshall aside, I like how our signings so far all seem to be mobile, forward thinking players who have legs on them. Was Maloney’s biggest mistake IMO not playing to the players he had. I think Runar Hauge is still getting up to speed for the first team but even he might have been an option to have on purely for the willingness to cover every blade of grass, if not the quality quite yet.
I’m defo intrigued to see how it goes.

Didn't your mother ever tell you that sometimes if you've nothing nice to say, then say nothing at all?
Would that saying not be applicable to your views on the poster as well?
I don’t get the fuss, if people don’t like a poster that much, just don’t engage in debate with them. Make your point and move on.
I don’t agree with much of what the poster in question has said recently but they’re perfectly entitled to think what they want, even if they are on a downer with the club just now.

It could well be that I'm a massive hypocrite, but I'm also a Hibs fan and will defend the club when I feel it's justified, and criticise when it's justified.

Ignore on a laptop or go change phone to default style, once ignored go back to phone app style, one problem though is although you won't see their posts, you will see any posts they've been quoted in. Also funny watching someone having an argument with themselves, there's little context. :greengrin
