Megwa gets sponsors man of the match:thumbsup:

[easty]

Dunno what Tsimikas has to do to get booked here. 3 fouls already, and that latest one was well worth a yellow

[Keepthefaith]

Merseyside derby, it's all a bit slow and very little atmosphere!

[easty]

Young should be getting a second yellow.

Aye he’s off.

Stupid.

2 yellow card challenges from Young.

I've never got this 'let's never send off players' rhetoric.

Why even bother having cards then? They're two clear yellow cards, he should be sent off. I want to see refs produce cards whenever there is a card worthy foul, leniency does my head in.

[Crunchie]

Depending on who's refereeing, you're obviously a Liverpool fan

Aye, and you'd feel the same if it was Hanlon sent off against Hearts for 2 challenges like that.

You'll see a lot worse challenges go unpunished at Ibrox today, and all over the UK for that matter.

[Johnny_Leith]

Correct.

[easty]

You'll see a lot worse challenges go unpunished at Ibrox today, and all over the UK for that matter.

You’ll also see yellow cards given for less all over the U.K. today

[blackpoolhibs]

Aye, and you'd feel the same if it was Hanlon sent off against Hearts for 2 challenges like that.

I'd be very happy if we played against 10 men or even 9 men every week. I dont get how a sending off spoils a game, as i said, i'd love us to play against weakened sides every week, rather than like today's 12 men.

[Johnny_Leith]

Aye, and you'd feel the same if it was Hanlon sent off against Hearts for 2 challenges like that.

What did you think about when obita and Guthrie, who was on a yellow, went head to head at ER this season?

Letter of the law is both players get a yellow but the ref 'used common sense' and didn't book either, which in turn gave livi an advantage and they went on to get three points.

Interpretive refereeing allows for instances like the above to happen far too often.

We could go back and forth and cite instances which back up our argument, I think it was 2 soft yellows and a soft red, you don't it's as simple as that.
Bottom line it's ruined what was a decent game.

[easty]

Liverpool will probably win here, but they’ve been *****.

3 good centre mids but not much being created by any of them.

Salah been quiet.

It was decent enough taking into context where both teams are, if you don't like it you can always turn it off.

But Liverpool should have had a 2nd yellow. Poor from ref.

I read stuff from plenty of them online, they rate him and ramsdale, but Rayas distribution is certainly better.

Ramsdale had some horror shows last season tbf, despite being good. I mean, Arteta has turned the club round entirely. Folk doubted Ben White after a few games too. He's a world class player now.

Ben White has but thats a bit irrelevant to a Raya Ramsdale debate.

[Paul1642]

McTominay scores again. Game was all Sheffield United before the goal.

[Tyler Durden]

Man U’s shape is so bad. They were in comfortable possession there and Fernandes tries a ridiculous long ball, 10-15 seconds later they give away a penalty.

Hard to believe Man U don’t have a young left back that could fill in rather than have such an unbalanced team

[Paul1642]

Perfect penalty from McBurnie. 1-1. Man United look very poor.

Ben White is nowhere near world class!

[MWHIBBIES]

Ben White is nowhere near world class!

He is imo. Very few better. He's a brilliant player.

Hibs players are nowhere near world class, White is there or there abouts. He'd be in any squad in the world with what he does.

[J-C]

Ben White is nowhere near world class!

If he was he'd be playing for England.

[MWHIBBIES]

If he was he'd be playing for England.

Him not playing for England is nothing to do with his ability. He was in the world cup squad and had to leave. He's not been picked since. Southgate picks poorer defenders than him, guys who aren't even playing.

[Since90+2]

Ben White is not world class 😂

[MWHIBBIES]

Ben White is not world class ��

Okay.

You'll no doubt be able to tell me what he needs to improve to get there?

In terms of 1v1 defending, distribution, overlapping runs, supporting his midfield and attack, stopping counter attacks, there are very few better right now.

Didn't you say you don't want the premier League and prefer to watch Aberdeen Vs Motherwell? How well do you really know Ben Whites game?

[Tyler Durden]

He is imo. Very few better. He's a brilliant player.

Hibs players are nowhere near world class, White is there or there abouts. He'd be in any squad in the world with what he does.

He’s a good player, doing well but I think World class is a leap.

Personally wouldn’t have him near the top 5 right backs or CBs. If you just look at this hybrid type role he plays… again don’t think he’d be top 5 at that either.

Everyone has their own idea of world class of course

[easty]

Ben White being called world class has given me a great laugh!

[Willis1875]

He’s got a world class suntan that’s about it

[MWHIBBIES]

Ben White being called world class has given me a great laugh!

Why though? Can you give any kind of thoughts on him? Like, hes playing every week for a top 2 side in England. Even if he isn't world class, he isnt far away.

I watch him and Arsenal any time I can. He's their most consistent player, and has been absolutely incredible for them since joining. There isn't a team in the world who wouldn't like him as an option

[Since452]

Ben White being called world class has given me a great laugh!

I genuinely don't know who Ben White is. Don't follow English football mind.

[WeeRussell]

I genuinely don't know who Ben White is. Don't follow English football mind.

All you need to know is that not getting selected to play for England has absolutely nothing to do with his (world class) footballing ability….

As an aside, the whole goalkeeping thing, I thought I heard Ramsdale wasn’t there because his wife just gave birth? Maybe he wouldn’t have started anyway and that just stopped him being in the squad..

I'm really not sure why you're trying to be wide about this? Is that your only opinion on the player, that he isn't selected for England? Nothing else?

He has England caps. He was selected for the final world cup squad. His ability isn't the issue. He left the world cup squad, no one knows why. Some rumours it was a personal issue, some rumours the coaching staff and him had a fall out. It's not common but it does happen.

He really is a top player. You should watch him rather than just disagreeing with me because it's me.

If you were making a world select would you really have Ben White in it? Or even on the bench? He is a good player but for me not at the level where I would pick him in a world select.

[Since90+2]

If you were making a world select would you really have Ben White in it? Or even on the bench? He is a good player but for me not at the level where I would pick him in a world select.

He wouldn't even make a premier league 11 never mind a world 11. Which is why it's silly to suggest he's world class.

[MWHIBBIES]

If you were making a world select would you really have Ben White in it? Or even on the bench? He is a good player but for me not at the level where I would pick him in a world select.

No, possibly not, but in a 60 game season, with his ability to play full back and centre back to a high level, he'd be in any squad in the world in my opinion. Considering that's reality and a world select isn't, that's what I'd base it on.

There really aren't that many full backs over him. Trent, Cancelo and Hakimi are great going forward but poorer defensively than White. Reece James is fantastic but really toiling with injury. Kyle Walker is the only one I'd say for sure is better, mainly because he is faster but I don't think he's quite as good on the ball. There aren't guys like Philip Lahm and Dani Alves right now.

[MWHIBBIES]

He wouldn't even make a premier league 11 never mind a world 11. Which is why it's silly to suggest he's world class.

So there are only 11 world class players in the premier league?

Let's say Allison is the goalie. Sure, we can say he's the best quite clearly. Walker at right back, yeah.

And then it completely falls to bits. Because there are about 8 world class central defenders in that league. Van Dijk, Dias, Gvardiol, Gabriel, Saliba, Romero, Varane if he can stay fit, even old Thiago Silva can still ball on his day.

Dreadful logic. I'm speaking over a 60 game season, not a daft premier League 11.

I keep getting called silly and told he wouldn't make a X or y best 11. Not one bit of input on his ability or weaknesses. Tells me no one is actually watching the guy.

Ok, to use your silly logic he wouldn't even be in a premier league select squad. All the guys you've listed and more would be ahead of him.

You're actually arguing against your own logic. I'm guessing you're an Arsenal fan with this chat.

You don't still think he's a central defender do you? :faf:

He isn't competing against them. He's competing against Walker, James, Trent, and Trippier. And he does that very well.

I called Allison world class. I'm also a Liverpool fan. I called Walker world class, I also support City. Genius you are honestly.

Any team in the premier League takes Ben White in their squad imo. And yes, he gets into a realistic premier league select too. The depth he offers is only offered by a couple others.

Kyle Walker and Reece James are world class right backs. Ben White is not.

You have only listed premier league full backs there(except the retired guys) I'd also include trippier in your list but would you have him in front of carvajal, Pavard, calabria to name another few? For me I wouldn't but its all about opinions

Credit to you for actually knowing a bit about football.

Great players all of those guys. White competes with them all IMO. Pavard is currently playing central defense because he had a bit of a tantrum at Bayern and refused to train because he didn't want to play fullback. First ever Bayern player to refuse to train. Not a guy I want in my squad tbh.

Tripper is very good, and can play 2 positions like White. Brilliant crosser. Not as good defensively IMO.

[Since90+2]

If you aren't able to offer one iota of input on his game, you'll continue to be ignored.

He’s a good player. That’s why he plays regularly at Arsenal. That doesn’t make him world class though.

Xhaka was a key player at Arsenal for years. He was never world class either though.

You can be solid and dependable, without being a superstar. White is very good defensively, but that’s not all that a full back has to be in modern football.

All about opinions though. I just don’t think those who aren’t fans of Arsenal would see it the same way as you.

Fair points.

It is a bit kinda lazy to say white isn't good offensively. He has the most overlapping runs of any premier League full back so far this season. His ability on the ball is brilliant. Great passer, understands his role perfectly. Arsenal play without a left back overlapping and part of that is because White and Saka cause so much havoc down the other side. He's a lot more than solid and dependable. He's a vital player, basically the only one who never rotates along with Saka. He's first name on the team sheet really.

How does he fare with assists or xA? Playing in a high possession team, it doesn’t surprise me he’s overlapping, but what’s he doing with it?

I dinnae watch all arsenals games, but it’s rare I don’t see every EPL games highlights at least. I don’t see White as an attacking unit at all.

Hatate on Devlin. Nothing to see there 👏😆

[Del Boy]

Lowry looks awful, constantly loses the ball

[cabbageandribs1875]

how embarrassing was that from Devlin, deary me

[HFC93]

Hopefully the Sunday, Wednesday, Saturday scheduled makes Celtic a bit leggy by the time they play us. Clutching at straws slightly.

They're no playing on Thursday. But, yes, midweek for them and a hard workout against a top team.

Worse for my cash.

Considering they are at home I'd agree.

Careful. Ours is a scaffolding bivouac with it without glass. But then we don’t have a banqueting chair in our dugout.

Commentator letting us know some have left

Commentator just said some hearts fans are leaving. Did he not notice they weren’t there in the first place

[plhibs]

Having nightmares about what their wide players might do to our poor defence.

While I’m thoroughly enjoying this so far it’s not ideal knowing that we have them next. So far ahead of everyone else.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

I never saw the game yesterday but, were Hibs as bad as our city friends today?

[HarpOnHibee]

We are all that matters to them

But I thought Celtic were their main rivals these days or something?

Yes, we were.

Judging only from the highlights, yes. The number of misplaced passes was excruciating

Do we know what system the tramps have went with today.

[ancient hibee]

Shocking penalty decision especially once VAR looked at it.

Strange Hearts formation. Shankland wandering about trying to feed the ball to players who don’t have his goal scoring ability. Boyce sitting on the bench. Naismith believing that Lowry is a world beater.Cochrane knackered.

[cabbageandribs1875]

shankland 1-3

[MWHIBBIES]

Shankland without pens is James Collins

I think someone said 433 but that might have been the number of hearts fans left in the ground 🤣

Booooo

Good finish from Shankland to be fair.

Lovely goal from Shanky, got to say that, although I’m now regretting saying it :confused:

Thought that when I first seen it but went in off the post, no sure hart could get near it

[lyonhibs]

Fire drill at Tynecastle? Or was it just a gash attendance because they knew they'll be getting shafted by Celtic at home as always?

No chance any goalkeeper was saving that.

Naismith just doing his post match interview and the biggest thing that strikes me is………… he looks like he could do with a good clean. Grubby as ****. A wire brush and some dettol should do the trick.

[Donegal Hibby]

No chance any goalkeeper was saving that.

I had sympathy for Marshall yesterday on the one he was blamed for so in jest I thought I'd see what reaction I'd get about harts today 😄

Amazing how there was just as many Celtic fans in tiny after an hour as there were jambos too ! 😂

[GRA]

Yes I know I’m obsessing but 17,608 is official attendance??

So, assuming they take away ~400 due to segregation, where are the missing 2k? If they had a 7.5k waiting list wouldn't those seats be filled right away?

Sounds as if that was all total BS in the first place. Ironic given the borderline obsession with Hibs attendances.

There was also a whole section empty behind their wee ultras too.

Aye but they are big and famous

Too funny :faf:

[RoxburghHibs]

Ironic given the borderline obsession with Hibs attendances.

This is exactly it.

Hearts fans I believe are convinced they have a much larger support than Hibs and Aberdeen however the truth is that it’s roughly the same (marginally more).
Like Hibs they get better attendances when they are confident of a result. However they have also had some poor turnouts that they selectively forget about.

[HarpOnHibee]

Odd people.

That was a brilliant save to stop Villa going 2 up.

[Hibernia&Alba]

Their mini-Hun element are certainly odd, and there’s one. What a walloper. He’ll be one of those staggering around the streets, clutching a Buckfast bottle, every marching season, Union Jack draped over him. Our neighbour next door but one is just like that. A buffoon.

[Mcbizz1998]

Odd people.

https://i.ibb.co/0XgmdMg/thudbo.jpg

Yep really odd. Along with the Celtic fans with the Palestine fans in the away end. Bizarre.

[Lago]

Are Villa set up as 4-4-2.?

[Hibernia&Alba]

Dick Emery is doing a good job with Villa. Big improvement since Slippy G.

[greenlex]

Villas last two goals have been quite lovely.

[Hibernia&Alba]

4-1 Villa

Yes, love seeing the yams get cuffed but unfortunately no reason to imagine Celtic won't stick another four past us next week.

[JohnM1875]

Just saw the Celtic penalty and surprised folk don't think it was one.

The way I'd heard folk talking about it, not just on here but in group chats, I was expecting a ridiculous dive or something. Penalty all day long for me. Cochrane's leg clatters the back of Kyogo's who goes down. Good angle of it on Twitter. Stupid from Cochrane who seems to do something stupid every time I see him play.

[HoboHarry]

SJM has sung his praises and said that he wishes he'd had a foreign coach earlier in his career.

If that had been given against us I'd be going nuts . If penalties are going to be given like that , footballs in deep trouble imo .

[Northernhibee]

Hibs beat Sunderland 3-0 today, a fair few first teamers too. Goals from Stevenson, Delferriere, and Jair.

[Donegal Hibby]

Spurs V Fulham . Skysports main event 8:00 .
A win tonight for spurs and they go top of the league . Even though they've scrapped a few results this season so far there's no denying Ange postecoglou is doing a good job there . Probably jinxed them now 😄

Spurs are good to watch

[Northernhibee]

I'm pleased for Postecoglou. I don't like Celtic, but I did like him. He seems genuinely grateful for getting the opportunities he has recently and determined to grab them with both hands, and he deserves his success.

[Donegal Hibby]

3-0 up wouldn't flatter them on this display at all . Do wonder what they could achieve this season if Kane had stayed too?.

Agree, it’s good to be able to appreciate his style of play without it being through gritted teeth. He’s a proper good manager, and this is so much better to watch than the majority of English premier league games.

I think spurs might just be the best team in London right now. Funny how things work out.

[Donegal Hibby]

Spurs 60% possession, shots 12/5. Fulham shots 5/1.

[Hiber-nation]

Shirley having a nightmare!

He was really good for the huns but I never had him down as a Premier League player. Struggled at Ajax.

Strange decision to play him as a right centre back.

I thought he was nailed on to be an EPL player. He was excellent at Rangers and had all the attributes to be a brilliant player at that level imo.

**** knows what’s happened to him though, he was apparently god awful at Ajax and was dreadful last night as well.

[Billy Whizz]

Dundee v Ross County tonight. A draw would mean neither of them can go above Hibs

[Pagan Hibernia]

Bill Kenwright has passed away. A huge, if divisive figure at Everton. He was their Rod Petrie.

Had a fantastic career outside football too. Will be missed

Funny when they guy asked the wee Yam 3 mins into the video 'How do you think you will get on today'. With no hesitation he said 'I think we'll get pumped'.

Even at that age supporters of Edinburgh clubs know the score.

[greenlex]

Ross county the better of the two tonight. Simon Murray one on one and the keeper saves the best chance. Dundee pushing the last 5 mins of the half.

Gets the ball way out wide, bear the touchline. Toys with his defender, cuts in, and with three Sevilla players hovering around him strikes it across the keeper and into the top corner

Sevilla 0 - 2 Arsenal

From hero to zero :greengrin

Jesus lets his man get in front of him at a Sevilla corner and it's a firm header to make it Sevilla 1 - 2 Arsenal
