Winter 2022-23 transfer thread

[tonyrougier123]

Pretty much where I am.

If someone offers serious money for him I’d let him go if we could get someone else lined up. Whilst he’s had his moments they’ve been over a 6 month period and I don’t think he’s performed like a multi million pound player generally speaking. He’s been much improved since last season but if you asked someone on Friday if they’d take millions for Campbell then I think near enough everyone would say yes, I don’t think one hatrick against the most woeful of Aberdeen sides should change that too much.

If we can extract £1.5m or so from someone for him I’d take it.

Words fail me.
If you can’t see a real talented player in Campbell now you never will.
Campbell is fast becoming one of the brightest midfield talents in Scotland.

Don’t want to put the fear into anyone but there is a flight from Inverness to Manchester at 17.55

Plenty of time for deals to be made and players to be flying…

Can someone going to the game make a wee detour and just check who is boarding?!

[Stonewall]

Or you could argue he scored a few in September then didn’t score again for 17 games until January. I think he needs to be doing it consistently before we are talking about selling him for millions.

I’m not trying to criticise Campbell here but the result at the weekend hasn’t half elevated the abilities of everyone. I don’t think anyone will be offering millions for him just yet.

I agree, but you could also point out that in that time he’s mostly been asked to play a deeper role and at times out of position at right back.

Campbell is fast becoming one of the brightest midfield talents in Scotland.

Glad someone else rates him.

His energy, driving runs and intelligence of his runs too are very good. I read a lot about him not being as good on the ball but I don’t see it, I see someone who is capable with the ball on both feet and can ping a pass, hit a good shot and more often than not a good touch.

He might not beat 5 men by dribbling or play a Scott Allan type ball, but he’ll run past those 5 players off the ball and get on the end of the cross.

He’ll close folk down with intensity, wins the ball back, is good in the air, tracks his man and just covers a lot of ground.

22 years old, 8 goals and 5 assists in all competitions this season by January.

[ElginHibbie]

Only person we should be considering selling today is Henderson, and even then would say only if we are getting someone else in

A few more performances from Campbell like Saturday between now and summer and he'll be worth a lot more!

[Paulie Walnuts]

Words fail me.

Nobody said he’s not a talented player, you’ve just made that bit up. You have to be a talented player to be getting talked about as a £1m+ footballer like we’re currently discussing.

I don’t think he’s a multi million pound footballer though and I’d suggest pretty much nobody else on here would have either before Saturday. I don’t think a hatrick against a woeful Aberdeen side (and that’s not to take anything away from Campbell) has suddenly doubled his value.

His 1 touch pass to set up Nisbet was Allan-esque. Great vision by him.

I was one who doubted Campbell but he has been great this season and seems to be improving considerably. Wouldn’t want to sell him now.

I feel a bit sorry for Hendo, there's a player in there but he looks like a guy devoid of any confidence. If he makes it past the transfer window he may well come good.

[Hibbyradge]

Don't know the Wigan set up but doubt Maloney has anything to do with the transfer fees.

Maloney will have a good idea of Hibs finances so he may well have influenced the bids.

[Gloucester Hibs]

He was my player of the season so far before Saturday. I normally agree with the majority of your posts but I'm amazed you're so eager to sell one of our best players for the relative pittance of £1.5M? It's all monopoly money anyway and history shows we very rarely reinvest the sales of star players in a way that improves the team overall.

[number9dream]

Findlay, Wright and Williams would be a very positive end to the window. Can’t see it though.

I think the focus will be on one more centre-back, with a few irons in the fire in case of any late departures.
Swindon are going for promotion, so I can't see them selling their star man and Williams will be rolling in it from his earlier days, which means a modest bump in wages is not going to make much difference. Maybe he'll fancy a new challenge in the summer though...

[Hibernian Verse]

Do we think CJ will go right into the team?

I'd suggest Fish deserves to keep his place after Saturday.

Not sure of his contract status but I’d be looking to make sure it’s for a few yrs yet as he’s def been a bright spark this season for us

[gbhibby]

Leicester have bid £12m for Harry Souttar 🤔

All I said was I’d sell if someone offered serious money. I’m not sure that equates to being so eager. The same can probably be said for every one of our players.

I personally don’t think Campbell offers us £1.5m+ of football player. Not many players do, hence why we’ve only sold 13 players in our history for more than that, so that’s not an insult to Campbell.

Unlike yourself I’ve seen a player in Campbell since he broke through.
He’s improving vastly and honing his talent.
I’m very pleased with his all round play,and if I was a scout I would be recommending him as one to keep an eye on.

Your talking like he never kicked a ball before Saturday.

Team should be built with Campbell in mind. Future captain imo.

Can't believe the mentality of the nutters wanting to sell Campbell. He's only just blossoming as a player and has what- 3 or 4 years left on his deal ffs. Let us enjoy him and the fruits of the coaching staff's labour before flogging him off to the highest bidder thanks very much - indecent haste doesn't quite cover this bizarre take.

Money talks. Especially for a player put of contract in 6 months.

[Bobby's Cinema]

I feel a bit sorry for Hendo, there's a player in there but he looks like a guy devoid of any confidence. If he makes it past the transfer window he may well come good.
He's not one that's going to add to a strong spine of the team to be relied upon in there. Might have looked OK at Celtic making the odd cameo with 70% possession at home just being asked to shift the ball side to side and slip balls through. But he doesn't offer enough in the side of the game we need most weeks. Not the type we need I don't think.

[Unseen work]

Money talks. Especially for a player put of contract in 6 months.

Going by Swindon fans it seems to be at case of keep him and push for promotion or sell and have no chance of promotion.

Maybe think it’s a better financial and overall decision to keep him and hope the get promoted

I'm with you. I've been saying to my sceptical mate that Josh has been improving all season. He started off strongly disagreeing then moved to more muted replies and most recently he said nothing.

As reluctant as he is, I'm confident that I'll get some form of agreement out of him soon! :greengrin

I definitely wouldn't be selling him now and if/when he continues to perform consistently and/or improve, I'd hope Hibs offer him an extension.

[blackpoolhibs]

I'd keep Tavares, he's got quick feet and plenty of ability. His problem is he needs to put on some muscle, same with Henderson. Agree on Magennis, it's beyond a joke now.

Said it before, Tavarez is brilliant at taking the ball in and running away from goal, that's all down tto having quick feet and little ability.

I don't think he was well below average here. He was decent enough (in ability not personality/attitude) but I didn't think he'd go onto to play for clubs like Spurs and Atletico Madrid. We had another right back on loan from Norwich at the same time, George Francomb that I thought looked a better player than Doherty. We tended to shift him round positions. He's now playing in EFL 2. Shows how much I know.

[inglisavhibs]

It wasn't just the goals, it was his overall play which has been superb in an underachieving side. He's a young man going places we would be foolish to let him leave unless it's for BIG money.
It’s not just goals, his energy, tackling, running, attitude would be hard to replace.He also played really well against Hearts with unfortunately nothing to show for it. Not sure where we are supposed to get a ready made replacement without spending a lot of money.

[CockneyRebel]

Since he left here he has gone from strength to strength. Wolves (I think) then Spurs, seen him on tv many times, very impressive performances, strong, athletic, quite fast and very consistent and he's good to his mum :greengrin

Williams would be a good addition, would bring the midfield qualities we are currently lacking. I'd be happy with either Wright or Findlay at CB.

Kabongo Tshimanga - discussions ongoing. Chesterfield want his release clause met.

Hopefully the next one in is Tshimanga as that means we would have to sign Wright and Williams by default.

The Egan-Riley, Tshimanga signings fall within the young inexperienced loan/lower league punt bracket and with our colours tied to the mast around proven ready to go quality we would need Wright and Williams to tip the scales back.

It sounds like a plan.

And we'll take Arfield and Turnbull too. Sorted.

Also not saying it happens all the time but there have been a few players in their mid twenties come up from a low level down South and make a good impact up here of late - I'm thinking Nouble at Livi, Akinyemi at Ayr and Regan-Cook at Ross County.

If a player is tearing it up at that level and on a good, upward trajectory then you might expect them to continue that momentum with us. If they're dropping down the leagues, not playing particularly well or the like then that would be a different story.

Given some of our support can’t spell Nisbet correctly, signing this guy would cause severe apoplexy and cause some of us to spontaneously combust

I agree, and I support a side in the league below Chesterfield and frequently see players I believe could play at a higher level.

The difference is that teams in England with vast resources can gamble on a player like this, or Vardy, with little effect if it doesn't work out.

Hibs can't afford to be wasting vast amounts of money (for our circumstances) on gambles at this level.

Swindon are fighting to make the play offs and potential promotion and the new manager will be desperate for that to happen.

Selling Williams wouldn't be a great move unless he has someone lined up to replace him.

Have to say that if we get in at least two of the names we're being linked with, and don't lose Nisbet or Campbell, on paper that'll be a decent window. Three or more and it'd be great.

Wouldn't the T in his name be silent so pronounced "Shimanga"? :dunno:

[Smartie]

Wouldn't the T in his name be silent so pronounced "Shimanga"? :dunno:

I'd expect so but I'm still convinced that the name works - there's a "T", a "sh" and an "m" in there when you see it written down.

Struggling for an alternative if he does well though, "Kaboom" probably being the best I can come up with.

Although that might have been more appropriate for Bojang?

[Iain G]

[McGruber]

Wouldn't class Tshimanga as a youngster.

He's 26 in the summer, and prior to Boreham Wood and Chesterfield, he hasn't really been successful.

I wouldn't class him as young either. One is in the young, inexperienced bracket and Tshimanga in the lower league punt bracket.

I'm also not saying they wouldn't be good signings and they might well be. It's just not the strategy that was advertised and on that basis I'm hopeful that we will see a couple in like Wright and Williams that do fit the mould.

Kaboom Kabongo. I like it!

If he did sign, he'd most likely get called Bongo, though.

If he turned out not to be very good, no doubt some would call him something that rhymed with that, but began with a different consonant.

Unless we had a replacement signed up we would be mental to let him go now unless it was for silly money. Our midfield is already short with Magennis unable to last more than a fortnight and JDH and Henderson not exactly banging down the manager's door for a game, we absolutely need Campbell at this point.

We need to substantially strengthen our midfield options, not weaken them. I am now extremely concerned that after the Aberdeen performance and various rumours on Nisbet and Campbell we are going to be expected to feel somehow both stronger and grateful if we end up not losing anyone else and not making any quality signings.

From Nizzy's point of view that would be more like it, an absolute sleeping giant of a club with a big stadium ( all be it with a bloody stupid name ) and crowds of close to 40,000 every week even in the championship. The big worry would be if they made an approach and Hibs said no, I wouldn't blame him for taking it badly if that was to happen.

Feel the same - but time yet. Wright and Williams would be ideal. Will hold fire.

[Silky]

The players that we're linked with this window seem to have much more of a Lee Johnson input IMO. More what I expected when he came in.

Is that a good thing? Most folk want him gone. Should we be signing players with his input if he's not going to be here too long?

[Greenio]

Pretty much where I am.

If someone offers serious money for him I’d let him go if we could get someone else lined up. Whilst he’s had his moments they’ve been over a 6 month period and I don’t think he’s performed like a multi million pound player generally speaking. He’s been much improved since last season but if you asked someone on Friday if they’d take millions for Campbell then I think near enough everyone would say yes, I don’t think one hatrick against the most woeful of Aberdeen sides should change that too much.

If we can extract £1.5m or so from someone for him I’d take it.

Why do we need to sell him for $1.5m? What would that get us thats better than a proven goal scoring midfielder with good prospects to get better?

[One Day Soon]

Yeh, you could have a point with that. I certainly don't want to see either Nisbet or Campbell go. That doing we gave Aberdeen shouldn't in any way cover up the fact that we need to strengthen significantly and simply keeping Nizzy and Campbell wont do that.

We kept Doig for a further season after he won the Writer's Young POTY and then got £3m+ for him. Hopefully we do similar with Campbell and keep him a bit longer. Plus, he could well be in the running to win the award this year.

[LunasBoots]

Hopefully Campbell stays, for me he's still developing into a very good player, he can still do that here until he's even better and more ready for a move if he wants it eventually

[Swindonfan]

Was a big surprise to see him linked. He is out of contract and so if you bid enough you have a chance as long as hes ok about moving. We only got him as he was close to our former head coach and hes had injuries throughout his career.

Last season it felt like he had a job share with another player who had injury problems. Our sports science guys seem to have got more games out of him than hes ever had.

Hes our top scorer. I always feel he should run games but he doesnt. Sometimes you wouldnt know he was out there. But if your dominating the ball, he can effect a game. Runs well with it, beats people. Often finds himself on the floor either winning or looking for free kicks. Out of possession hes nothing much as not combative in any way. But he will get and make goals.

Our fans would not be happy if he left. I see we have turned a bid down. If you bid enough we will give Jonny the option to leave.

In that case if he does come to Hibs he had better bring them with him, cause our sports science guys seem to have had issues keeping quite a few of our injury prone players on the park.

For all the enthusiasm for bringing him in on here your assessment has tempered mine a bit. We need players who can make us dominant in games, not ones who only shine when we are on top in a match. This is a league where in many games you have to win the battle to be able to play, can't say I'm much enthused by a player who reading between the lines goes MIA when the going gets tough.

Issuing a hands off is all well and good but if we offer something they can't refuse, which might not be that much then they'll take it... and if the player says he wants to leave then that helps.... Williams is only got 6 months left... we may come out of this with a pre-contract at least.

We are only willing to pay 5 figures for a Welsh international but we paid about 4x that for Jamie mcallisters 16 year old laddie. Here lies the issue with Hibs atm. Pathetic.

Dunno but apparently they picked him up at Kings X by Limo.

[McGruber]

Nope, I'd be happy if things stay as they are with no one out. Would be great to get Williams though.

We need a centre back surely - experirnced one. Hanlon has been in and out all season with injuries, be a surprise if he gets to the end of the season without another spell out, he is getting running repairs by all accounts.

[I'm Spartacus]

Yes and not in a good way.

My fear comes from losing and still not replacing (never mind strengthening).

When you put it like that...

[Heisenberg]

Hull have bid for Murray Aiken. Sure someone mentioned them wanting one of our players on here recently.

Hull City have made a bid for Hibs central midfielder Murray Aiken. The 18-year-old, who can also play in defence, broke into the first team at the end of last season. Hull are looking for a permanent transfer. #DeadlineDay (https://twitter.com/hashtag/DeadlineDay?src=hashtag_click)

Is williams actually any good, I’ve learned to ignore reading fans comments on the likes of twitter.

Coming Swindon in league 2 doesn’t fill me with excitement I have to say

Certainly a good player. Was at World Cup. Surprise he is at league 2. Not sure injury record recently

ffs.

If we’re serious about signing players we really want a 5 figure bid really isn’t going to cut it!

The club owe the fans a lot more effort than five ****ing figures

[Nevi_SOL]

Sure someone on here said Aiken isn't signing a new deal. So could be something in it

One was 16, under long term contract and is very highly rated (not just by Hibs).

[basehibby]

Sky sports just said Hibs not happy with the structure of the deal for Campbell!!
Are they considering??

The response from Hibs for any bid for Campbell right now should be a rearrangement of the common phrase or saying "****** to get"
He's only just come onto a decent game, has years left on his deal = non-starter

No chance, signings will happen tonight.

Which is all fine and well but it’s starting to look like it’ll be 4th & 5th choice signings.

hes out of contract in league 2 in 6 months

what should we be paying?

hes probably on what? 2/3K per week?

[Johnny_Leith]

What gives you that idea?

To use Williams as an example, we might have heard he would be willing to come and suits what we are looking for, but we really wanted Messi but Messi will only know for sure if he's moving later on the day and once he becomes available then we get to move for our number one target.

Pathetic is the word for your post.

You would have to know what Hibs paid for MacAllister and what we offered for Williams.

[Hibbyradge]

Which is all fine and well but it’s starting to look like it’ll be 4th & 5th choice signings.

Would you stop trying if your first 3 choices didn't prove possible?

The truth is, we have no idea who our first choices were. We only know the information that is in the public domain. I am certain Hibs will be in negotiations with other players without it being publicised. I'm 100% certain.

How much should we be offering a league 2 club for a player who is out of contract in just over 3 months?

How much are the fans owed?

[chippy]

He’s out of contract in May, crazy from Hibs

Hibs ‘cool’ interest in Williams

Potentially but it adds to the drama of TDD

Well if it’s a player hibs want in the door surely we can stump up more than a 5 figure sum.

[Hiber-nation]

Exciting few hours ahead and there's even a Hibs game to boot :thumbsup:

Maybe in your head it does.

Well they aren't going to accept a 5 figure sum let's be serious? Maybe go in at 150k or something then go up to 250k but that's just a joke bidding 5 figures, we would be laughing at that so unsure why we think Swindon would accept it.
