That's a radical notion of playing what we have available in their preferred positions. It's not amazing but it's the best we have. If I see Porteous in midfield, Campbell at RB or Schofield up front I think I'll just get up and head for the pub straight away.

Re Newell's suspension, after the Bushiri incident in the League Cup can someone possibly send a reminder to the club? The suspension was incurred 9 months ago so it's entirely possible that it will be overlooked.

Cabraja?

On what evidence would that be an option?

[B.H.F.C]

Cabraja?

On what evidence would that be an option?

I thought Stevenson was terrible yesterday and terrible at Tynecastle. Our one decent run of form all season was with Cabraja in the team. If he can get a bit of form back I think he helps us get the ball down and play more.

Despite him losing a bit of form I still think he’s a better player than Lewis.

[Skol]

Right back is a problem. Cadden fitness is a risk and millets must be as well. We also don’t know how good millet is and the one pre season sighting I had wasn’t convincing.

We don’t have many options other than Stevenson but that pushes the problem to left back.

Aback three may be our best bet with wing backs.

Not a game for Youan to start it is going to be a battle he is scared of his own shadow and doesn’t offer much protection to the full backs. Maybe bring on as a sub.

[LunasBoots]

Newells suspended, going to be difficult in midfield with what's happened in previous games, I think this plus our defensive woes are going g to make this a very difficult game for us.

[Hiber-nation]

Right back is a massive problem if Cadden is still out. Campbell can't do that job and Miller looked dreadful when actually fit at the start of the season. The defensive side of things is bad enough on the right when Cadden is playing!

[lyonhibs]

Any central midfield combo from the available players is simply not good enough, especially for a Derby. JDH did show he's at least capable of passing a ball forward when he came on yesterday.

[basehibby]

I thought we lost the midfield last time out vs the Yams and that was our main problem as well as having too many square pegs in round holes leading to individual errors. I'd address that by going for a good old fashioned 4-4-2 with full backs at fullback, Centre halfs at centre half, midfielders in midfield with wide men that will run at their defence - and two out and out strikers up front to cause them problems and hopefully score the winning goals.

This is true - hopefully won't be the case as Johnson seems confident Cads will be back from his interview post Utd. Re Miller I thought he had the look of a (very) rough diamond early season - strong and athletic but tactically naive. I'd hoped they'd be able to knock a few of the rough edges off him in training and that he might improve quickly enough to be an able stand in as and when Cadden could not feature. He got injured though and is only just back in the picture so doubt he will have progressed much from pre-season. No idea how ready the likes of Megwa would be but if he doesn't get a look in in these circumstances it makes you wonder what the point of having a youth team actually is!

NB - What about Allan Delferriere? Last I knew he was on loan to Edinburgh - looked classy in pre-season and IS a rightback - could we not recall him???

Totally agree about Cadden, even if he is fit the guy isn't a defender. Campbell has shown in the last two games that he's a round peg in a square hole at right back and Fish certainly isn't one.

If that wasn't bad enough, watching Hertz last Friday practically everything decent they did offensively came down their left, they appear to be strongest exactly where we are weakest.
In view of that if we are going to go with a right back it simply has to be Miller if he is fit enough to play 90 minutes. I know he has next to no experience in this league and I agree he didn't look great the few times he did play, but he does have experience playing right back regularly in a competitive environment in Australia and he certainly has the physique to compete in a battle if it comes to it, which simply makes him the least worst option for me.

One thing though. A lot of folk have been asking to see Magennis play centrally and in the absence of Newell there's every chance they might get their wish .... Who knows, perhaps he'll be a revelation he's certainly more of a goal threat than Newell, at this point I'm willing to clutch at any straw :greengrin

Miller’s journey in Scotland has not been an easy one, and I hope he can show what he is capable of.

Interestingly, his previous pre Hibs reputation still holds him in good stead in Oz.

Just after the World Cup finals a couple of media outlets named him as a likely member of any Oz squad that would be in the NEXT World Cup finals, should the Socceroos make it.

Yet he looked really good in the games in Portugal. Injuries won't have helped him.

He also went close to being MOM in the friendly against Norwich, and against Rangers was only prevented from scoring by a wonder save by McLaughlin.

He’s been very unlucky with injuries.

I don’t know if he is going to be successful at at Hibs or otherwise, but appears some have made their mind up without seeing 90 minutes from him.

Yep. People judging him on a glorified pre season game at Falkirk, where he had Runar Hauge ahead of him and Rocky and McLelland at centre back.

Mental.

That's good to know. The guy certainly looks the part, quick, athletic and from all accounts a good attitude. It can't have been easy for him coming half way round the world, not least of all to play and train in weather conditions pretty alien to him I would imagine, I for one being a notorious 'cauld tattie' can only imagine what a shock to the system that might be for someone like him :greengrin

Whatever the case I don't think at this stage there's any reason to think he can't come good.

Totally agree

[Hibernia&Alba]

I hope the manager reads this thread. No crazy ideas ideas, such as a striker at right-back, please. At least give us a chance.

[Springbank]

I think the second half team from Tynecastle and the start of Fir Park suggested we have 11 who can form a decent team, we have Boyle & Kukharevych injured ( who have a lot to offer when they come back ) but we have little else to come off the bench or cover injuries & suspensions.

So for me, it's keeping it as much like-for-like with Cadden & Newell being out for Sunday. I'd go:

Marsh

Miller or Megwa at right back [NOT Fish or Campbell]
Rocky
Porto
Lewis

Campbell
McGennis

That's the team I would like to see.

Campbell would be better at rwb than RB if he is required to play there.

We don't have many options in midfield and even JDH could be away before Sunday so it might be another Lewis in midfield for some fight.

Oscar is a wildcard which could go anyway for him but with Hanlon next to him it could help him defensively.

This formation needs high full backs for some width but I feel Lewis and even JDH could cover the space at times.

Gives Mcgeady and even Magennis a little bit of freedom to help Nisbet.

Come Sunday I expect a front 3 of Youan, Nisbet and Mcgeady.

I'd be very surprised if Campbell is dropped from the starting 11. We've got to win the midfield and I think we've got a better chance with Campbell in the team. I do agree we should go with a back three, but would rather five across the midfield. That said, you can tell I'm in the "keep it tight" mindset. Maybe attack, attack, attack is the best approach to the match.

I don’t think it’s that bad?

JDH to put his foot on the ball and keep possession, Campbell should get up and down the pitch and Magennis offers a goal threat. When we had that midfield but Newell instead of Magennis it was horrible as we had nobody driving forward and getting into the box or taking a shot on goal.

Would also be happy to get Porto back in defence where he belongs.

Over the course of a season, no. But in a one off game where you just need them to go out and work their balls off, they should be capable of doing it. We won a semi final against Rangers with a midfield of Campbell, JDH and Newell so a midfield of Campbell, JDH and Magennis is more than capable of beating Hearts at ER.

What we can’t do is weaken another area of the team by playing Porteous in there. Even Johnson has surely learned that lesson last week.

[truehibernian]

I’d definitely be putting Stevenson in midfield not only to provide a bit of defensive steel, he’d provoke and occupy Devlin. I’d be putting hard challenges into him very early doors. Jambos I know rate Devlin but think he’s prone to really rash reactions. I’d match up Campbell with Snodgrass and likewise, get early hard (and fair) challenges into him. That’s their engine room and we need to match them. Can see red cards in this one.

Two of them would be wearing a different coloured shirt though - the keeper and the ref.

[Broken Gnome]

With adequate replacements fair enough, I personally think Newell will be badly missed.

He will if we try and play the same way - none of midfield can really keep possession like he can so we'd risk giving the ball away high up the pitch.

There's also not much creativity there either, though Campbell and Magennis obviously have a bit of a goal threat. Might be a case of making sure the midfield get stuck in and rely on winning second balls, and it's a game for going a bit more direct than usual.

[Borderhibbie76]

Imo sums up just how bad our squad is just now when we are talking about missing Joe Newell, a midfielder who hardly ever scores or assists. He's brutal and a big reason for our decline - just shows what a shambles recruitment has been

This hardly ever scores or assist argument cracks me up. Seriously, its 2023 and folk think that is how you judge central midfield players.

A big reason for our decline is a belter as well. As if he scouted, signed and plays himself. Even if he was one of our big problems, which he isn't, no 1 ****ing player is a big reason for a clubs decline. You don't think the clueless owner is a big reason for our decline?

How can you guys misjudge what was posted.

It was a short post and pretty easy to understand.

At no point does he say it's 'the only way' or how he thinks a midfielder should be judged. He's merely giving his thoughts on Joe Newall and a couple of aspects of his play.

Why the need to try and twist things?

[Hibees1973]

My worst fear has become more of a possibility as the week has progressed is that wee waif we have (Henderson) is going to start tomorrow.

I really cannot think of a more inappropriate player, mind you, you could put McKirdy into this bracket, to play in the derby tomorrow.

My eyes bleed.

Feel like throwing Miller into a starting position in a Derby would be making the same mistake as playing Fish in the last one. I'd sooner see Fish start at right back tbh.

Chronic options in that area of the pitch though...

I'd go for this

Fish - Rocky - Porteous - Stevenson

----Magennis - JDH - Campbell----

Full back is such a problem area for us.

Bang on the money IMHO

Newell is far from the only problem but he's so far below the level of player we need and he's been part of the weakest area on the park for so long its seemingly never going to change.

With luck Newell being suspended will give someone (anyone) else a chance and begin the removal of him from our starting line up.

Another dire result tomorrow is on the cards though. This means sadly Newell will be back parading around the pitch every week 'till relegation.
The inevitable loss tomorrow may well lead to the removal of the manager.

Good news as far as I'm concerned.

So tell me, who's better?

[basehibby]

Erm - this is a thread about the Derby team and if I'm no mistaken Joe Newell is unavailable for selection. We have a new signing in Jegga and for me he's straight into the starting lineup as folows:

-----------Marsh-------------

Cadden Porto Rocky Stevenson

------------Jegga-------------
-----Magennis----Campbell-----

McGeady----------------Youan
------------Nisbet-------------

Amazing how one addition can change the whole complexion of a side. Assuming Jegga is what it says on the tin - a defensive midfielder good enough to compete for international places - his arrival will take pressure off other areas of our team and allow them to do their jobs better IMO. NB - if Cadden is not fit enough, I'd be happy to see Miller start there rather than a rookie cenntre half or AN Other.

[Hector Mudflap]

So tell me, who's better?

Are you asking manager or player?

remember this is only my opinion.
If its player I would suggest JDH offers more and if its manager then there are a number of candidates.
I have never felt that LJ was the standard required.

How will we ever know if Newell can be bettered if he continues in his position regardless of the performance he puts in. We are well overdue a change. He is anonymous in my opinion and offers practically nothing whilst incredibly managing to produce even less.

[richard_pitts]

Cause he wasn’t good enough for us.

If it’s between Miller and playing a player out of position then i’d rather we put Miller in. Otherwise, give Megwa a chance.

With respect I don't think our back up options in the absence of Cadden are better

[Franck Stanton]

Match them up 3-4-3, keep it solid with a pretty defensive back line & midfield and let the front 3 focus on attack with their creativity and threat. Formation also allows for Porto to step forward at times.

If Cadden out then I wonder if we will see the introduction of Megwa. Big ask but not sure what other options there are.

Wouldn't deem Cabraja not good enough for a start then put him back in, he's looked shakey and out of form in his cameos off the bench. Wouldn't have Cadden right back and wouldn't have Stevenson in midfield for this one.

Also, any competent manager wouldn't have left themselves so short in midfield.

Would keep Stevenson left back, would bring Miller in - an actual right back and push Cadden on as not a right back for starters.

McGeady, Youan and Nisbet as good as we have as attackers.

Centre midfield Campbell and Jeggo - no idea about Jeggo but at least all players in their own positions
