Never noticed that that any idea what kind of injury he has

[Nicho87]

Doidge starting says to me he doesn’t think jair is ready enough to be starting now and playing Youan through the middle.

[HH81]

Can't find post but sounded serious from memory.

[badabing67]

McClelland not no the bench what's up with him

[Mikey_1875]

Really hope it’s not too serious for Rocky. The midfield need to show us a performance similar to last week.

Fancy Youan to get on the scoresheet today.

Travel update. Left at 12.30, bad crash at Dreghorn. Still not even reached Hillend. There will be hardly any Hibs fans there at this rate.

[badabing67]

Looks like Hendo drop for Campbell about time there was some competition in there

[Nicho87]

Surely Doidge through the middle with Youan left and Boyle right

Yes but my point is jair not playing and moving Youan through the middle says he doesn’t think jair is ready to start most games yet - hence doidge playing and Youan being sacrificed out of position. LJ has already stated he wants to use him as a 9 not on the left.

[Sir David Gray]

Centre back and an attacking CM an absolute must now.

Personally think we need two centre halves now, we needed one even before this news.

[Mark05]

I think we will really struggle today,the BBC website has us only playing with 10 men,they have newel on the bench. Seriously I fancy us for a win today come on hibs :flag:

Between that and the still glaringly obvious need for a central defender and striker, we are exactly where we were this time last year and the year before.

Youan has showed no evidence so far that he should be starting in the middle but he certainly has out wide. LJ has maybe realised this too. Jair hasn't showed anything to suggest he should be anywhere near the starting lineup.

Newell, needs to get out the road asap, or the ref will help us out on that front.

His persistent fouling really annoys me. It's even more frustrating when he *could* be such a good player, if he just applied himself. When he turns it on he's fantastic but we don't see that side of his play nearly often enough.

[hibee-boys]

Once again we’re playing with a spine of a team that haven’t performed as a collective for as long as I can remember. That CD partnership does not work, midfield 3 have consistently been bullied by bottom 6 SPL teams and Doidge hasn’t been at it for months against SPL opposition. Why ANOTHER management team don’t see this is beyond me!

He wants to be a ball winning all action midfielder yet played most of his career down south as a wide attacking player, he's never a midfielder in a million years.

If we play a back 4 then we need to have a proper DM in front of them, JDH nor Newell are DM's, young Kenneh is but he's really still learning at this level, a proper DM is a must.

[Hibernian Verse]

Marshall catches the ball at his post and a corner is given. Wild.

[Real Emerald]

We desperately need at least one new quality CB, an attacking midfielder and a proper CF. The fact we haven’t addressed this given how long we’ve needed them is a disgrace. Clubs with the resources of St Mirren and Livingston shouldn’t be dominating us.

[Keith_M]

The defending for their goal was horrendous.

Actually, it was non existent.

We now look shell shocked

All you can do is hope because when you see the same players that are arguably not even good enough individually, you start questioning the decision making cause there's no argument that they're good enough collectively.

[Hibrandenburg]

Can't watch the game today but it sounds brutal. I take it the poppy thieves aren't playing today. C'mon the Hibees, get the finger oot.

[flash]

11 or 12 new players and this is the dross we are putting on the park

[Antonyopus]

Spare me the vitriol that you give to other posts on here but it’s true. Hibs are rank and whilst we battle to try to beat teams like St Mirren, Livingston and other teams in the lower part of the league which we should really be beating out of sight…,our friends across the city are lapping this up with Glamour euro ties to look forward to and millions of pounds in the kitty I said at the outset that LJ was an underwhelming appointment and I am really sorry to say that the results prove that I was right.

Cabraja has been really poor.

A few long balls to nothing. No doubt trying to force it feeling somewhat frustrated. Most of our better play is coming down the right but we can't find a player in the box as the crossing is aimless.

Despite the euphoria of last minute equalisers against Hearts and Rangers that's not good enough.

[Feed McGraw]

Nothing about this is working so far. The team and the shape. Utterly woeful. How many "poor 45s" are we going to have?! We always have at least one bad half, sometimes two but rarely two good halves.

[J-C]

Of the outfield players we only have 2 new signings in Youan and Cabraja, the rest were the same crap that had us scraping around relegation area last season, of all the players we've brought in there is no one that is making us better, quite depressing.

Either that or they are that amazing in training that you just have to play them.

I’m shocked that the midfield has been posted missing and Doidge hasn’t done a thing. For all the signings we’ve made this is still a bottom six side, two new faces starting is a damming indictment of the recruitment this summer. No wonder LJ was asking for a couple more ready made first team players last week.

[Torto7]

Similar to Maloney atm. Boring possession sequences with no cutting edge and gaping holes in our defence. It's weird we have pace with Boyle and Youan but don't play to their strengths.

[J-C]

Do we ever win a header at a corner, their defenders seem to win every one.

Absolutely shocking first half performance again. The recruitment has been abysmal and we’re still found wanting in all the areas that we’ve been crying out for, this team is going nowhere, it’s so frustrating.

[MWHIBBIES]

That midfield, yet again, fails - don’t need bloody coaching badges to see it either.

I mean, so have the defenders and forwards. Boyle and Youan haven't been any better than anyone else. Cabraja having a nightmare. Porteous poor.

[HIBERNIAN-0762]

Absolute garbage. Just gets worse 😡

[cabbageandribs1875]

cabraja was very poor at the lead up to that goal

[Nicho87]

Too many of the same players from last season still having to much to say about this season.

Jair, Kenneh came in with big excitement give by the hibs PR team - both not deemed ready clearly

Forever in transition this club these days

[Key West]

With the present squad I don't think it would matter who the manager was. Maybe Boyle will rescue us yet again and put a different complexion on what is deemed as progress.

[Springbank]

Hanlon has been better than Porto but that will be ignored.

Have a look at their goal....omg Hanlon...

[Bridge hibs]

Can we buy season tickets for the training? Must be great to watch [emoji6]

Sent from my SM-A750FN using TapatalkMust be able to trot in and watch training, one or two on here seem to have good knowledge of how players are getting injured, might take a wee jaunt doon next time Im off

[mcfly]

This same bunch have got the past 3 managers the sack - they’re trying their best to keep up the same firm.

Fans have said for years we need a new centre back and central
Midfielder- why can’t we get them?

Also why can’t bc we sign players to go straight into the first team?? Always folk no quite ready. Not good enough for £400 season tickets

That first half was horrendous

[sleeping giant]

Its been pretty pish.

[Stuart93]

It’s all too predictable when you seen the starting 11

[cabbageandribs1875]

Nil, this is our squad until January, when the new manager will bring in a couple of loans and we will battle it out in a relegation battle, even LJ doesn’t have confidence in this team, what a mess.


i'm not even going to laugh at that


it's a possibility

[Bridge hibs]

They are all having an absolute nightmare, at leats at livvy we could blame the pitch..I thought Hanlon was to blame at livvy goal ?

[Tambo]

Another slow boring 45 minutes with nothing creative at all.

Midfield struggling that half with zero creativity going forward to try and break down St Mirrren.

Takes an age to get it out wide before they are already back in shape.

Inconsistency cost us last season and so far looking the same, hopefully a last minute equilizer.

[Hibernian Verse]

Well that was awful

Cabraja
Cadden
Youan
Jdh

All having total mares

Everyone else not far behind to be fair

You missed out Porteous from the main list

[J-C]

Not one player gets pass marks for that half, all of them 3/10, as poor a half as I've seen for a while, then again bar 3 players it's the same dross from last season.

[blackpoolhibs]

Hanlon has been better than Porto but that will be ignored.

I dont think the back 4 have been bad, a couple of missplaced passes, but apart from that ok.

They score from their only shot on target, albeit poor marking by someone???

If we had a midfield (how long have i said that) one that stopped the opposition cutting through us like butter, and actually created and drove forward now and again, we might even win some games?

[rotherhamrob]

Anyone got a spare 45 mins they could lend me,I seem to have lost mine.
Might just tune in on the 89 minute.

[Joe6-2]

Again, it’s infuriating, so damn obvious to every fan

[Trinity Hibee]

This pedestrian football has to get in the bin. Everyone looking to others to take responsibility. we are so far off where we want to/should be. Gutted as given it’s a little easier to get into European groups now it looks like we’ll be nowhere near them again this season or for the next couple of seasons.

[Hibs90]

0 shots on target.

What a stunning performance yet again. :not worth

[Mikey_1875]

Feels like we are just going round in circles with some of these players that have been with us for a while. It’s almost becoming boring.

Another comeback performance needed but whatever happens it can’t mask the fact that we need to have a big week in the transfer market before it closes.

[SteveHFC]

Players just look like they can't be bothered or not happy about something, no idea what is going on with us at moment but looks like something is just not right

[Brightside]

Have a look at their goal....omg Hanlon...

Nothing wrong with Hanlon for that goal. He’s in the right position. Porto is too far over but tbh our midfield should have been tracking the runner.

[Trinity Hibee]

Yep a real worry now that the window is closing. Unless we are bottom I do think we have to stick with Johnson until next season. He needs a couple of windows to have a big revamp of the squad.

[Booked4Being-Ugly]

We don’t even work hard when things aren’t going our way.

That 1st half was utter garbage.

[brydekirk]

Cabraja has been really poor.

I like him as a player but must agree.
Been poor first half and not the only one,Cadden aswell.

[WhileTheChief..]

First time in forever that we are all agreed that this team is gash.

A week to fix it? We've learnt nothing over the last 2 seasons, so don't see it happening now.

It's been boring for the most part for far too long.

Agreed. Most of them look half arsed every week.

It’s the exact same carbon copy performance of the last couple of years. We just don’t learn, these players will constantly let us down.

[PaulSmith]

That’s the issue. We have a collection of players who think they’re brilliant and therefore it’s everyone else’s fault.

What I saw in that first half was absolutely disgusting.

[brydekirk]

cabraja was very poor at the lead up to that goal

Hanlon and Porteous missing again.

[Centre Hawf]

Starting to get very concerned for the season going forward again.

[thebausburst]

This has to be the worst we’ve been in terms of a goal threat for years, Youhan is a good player but how many goals will he get, Boyle will score but outwith that we have nothing to offer.

[WhileTheChief..]

and get to watch the development team too? They're the ones that count.

[hhibs]

It is not just the players,not just the formation and not just the attitude ,it is all that.

Please God, get a grip LJ ,whatever you are trying to do ,you need to change it up big time,it is not working.......again!

[Joe6-2]

What the hell are our new managers thinking when they join? Nothing needs changed?!!

[Real Emerald]

That midfield will never work, Doidge really looks finished and we’ve no leaders on the park driving us forward. We really shouldn’t be in this position in the last week of the window considering it should have been addressed last summer. Here we are a year on and nothing has been done. Relying on Boyle to get us out a mess again.

[blackpoolhibs]

It’s the exact same carbon copy performance of the last couple of years. We just don’t learn, these players will constantly let us down.

You have to question how many signing do we need to improve on last years sheite?

That lot will take us down.

[Unseen work]

Missed the first half today due to work.

How have we been?

Anyone playing well or poor?

[A Hi-Bee]

Of the outfield players we only have 2 new signings in Youan and Cabraja, the rest were the same crap that had us scraping around relegation area last season, of all the players we've brought in there is no one that is making us better, quite depressing.

Agree 100% nothing much has changed at all, still look like a struggling team, no leaders on that park.
3 or 4 good quality players needed and needed now.

:thumbsup:

[grunt]

We can still win this game. Big 45 minutes ahead.

[Hibs90]

To be honest the team is probably about 4 or 5 quality players away from competing at the right end of the table. But we've all knew the issues within the squad for ages and it's never been addressed.

Either the manager needs backed properly by going out and getting some quality starters or if he is choosing to sign the players then questions need asked if he has underestimated the league.

[GreenCastle]

It’s the exact same carbon copy performance of the last couple of years. We just don’t learn, these players will constantly let us down.

8 out of the 11 played last season and we struggled and we wonder why we are struggling today.

We haven’t addressed our main issues or central midfield - another striker and centre back.

Cadden also isn’t a right back.

It’s easy to get up for games against Mini Huns and Huns but if we can’t pick up points at Livi or St Mirren we have issues.

[cabbageandribs1875]

righty let's be havin ya hibs

[Sir David Gray]

Youan misses a sitter - easier to score.

[Jim44]

It’s worrying that, as a team, we should be holding our own in the top six, but we constantly struggle against bottom six teams.

[cabbageandribs1875]

youan completely misses from two yards at the back post

[CMac1988]

I like him as a player but must agree.
Been poor first half and not the only one,Cadden aswell.

Cadden's been hit with the new contract curse! See the midfield for symptoms. At its core it means you play 1 good game in every 4 or so.

[Joe6-2]

We can say that until we are blue 🤮 in the face, and we have for two seasons, but what’s changed? FA

If we didn’t have Boyle things would be even worse.

The midfield wasn’t good enough last year and just because Newell plays ok for a couple games and Campbell scores a couple goals it’s not the long term solution for this team.

The only positive is a few more days to bring players in but we are seriously taking our time to address problem areas of the team.

I'd go back to work.

I struggle to see how Youhan missed the target there.
