Dylan Vente

Thoughts on the new signing ?

[ErinGoBraghHFC]

Spent a lot of money and on high wages apparently, lot of expectation on him clearly. Hopefully he fulfils that, I think he’ll do well.

He appears to be good in the air.
should be a great signing

[1875Sean]

Scores goals with both left and right foot, can’t wait to see him play

[erin go bragh]

Refreshing to see us reinvesting the money we got for Nisbet with some real quality.

[Mick O'Rourke]

We've paid Tony Galente for Vente
Lets hope he will do what he's meantae
It will be a good start, to score 3 against hearts
And watch the Dunbar End just emptae :greengrin

[kentao]

After watching his highlight reel last week, I thought we had no chance of signing him. He looks very composed in front of goal, decent in the air and can score all sorts of goals.

Really enjoying the Gordon`s in charge for once we are actually reinvesting in the team when our better players depart.

Cant wait for the season to start.

[HendoDelivered]

Service = plenty goals. Should get plenty once the likes of Boyle, Youan, Levitt etc get going, Newell too.

[H18 SFR]

Vente looks like he scores left/right foot, headers, inside 6 yards box, inside penalty box, first time finishes, one touch then finish goals, Stevie Mallan type long range goals (never seen anyone move the ball using the same technique as Mallan until today), calm when completing one vs keeper chances.

Really looks a top player in the making. If we alter our attacking style to suit him he will score a barrow load. If we expect him to change his style, ie back to goal, strong CD’s in the SPFL booting hell out of him then he will struggle - looks pretty clear what needs to happen here.

[Sean1875]

Excellent.

[McGhee]

With the inclusion of Dylan Vente, this could be one of the best forward lines for many a year. Lots of goals. We love lots of goals scored. With Boyler and Youan, could be mental this year.

[H18 SFR]

Exclamation marks in the article after ‘work permit’ made me think it will be some time. He’d be able to play in the away UCL tie though with no work permit hypothetically.

Seems a good replacement for Nisbet.

Vente has scored plenty of goals in the Dutch 2nd tier over a couple of seasons (better than the level Nisbet was signed from, hence the higher fee) and has played a good number of games so makes sense.

A good age and with no history of injuries.

Just give him service from the likes of Boyle and Newell and should score goals.

No guarantee he will be a success but proper recruitment work carried out.

Judging by the video clip I've just watch the boy can certainly score goals, all types of goals.

Sell nisbet for £2 million with a sell on and buy Vente. Good deal all round and the perfect business model we should be pursing.

Never going to keep finding gems at £200-£300k so spending that little bit more should help us keep that model up

Looks the part. Good that we’re spending a few quid. Only thing for me is the 3 year deal. Would have preferred a 4 year deal with the money we’ve invested in him.

Hopefully the work permit is through. Remember it taking a few of them a fair few weeks last year.

[Up-the-slope]

Looks like he is not afraid to shoot from almost anywhere as well as some nice poaching... none of this pass pass pass.. pass back / lose ball in final 1/3rd.. just work the keeper

[nonshinyfinish]

Someone said elsewhere that the problem last year was that the government had suspended the fast-track scheme – now that scheme’s back they can go through in a few days.

I mean no offence, but my highlights reel could make me look good and I'm in my late 50s with only one working leg.

Have we broke our transfer record to sign him? Transfermarket saying 800k. 750 for del la cruz was our previous.

In terms of wages, I have no idea what he's on but I think it's a safe call that a guy we are paying £700k/800k for, having alledgedy seem off competition from clubs in Italy, will be on very good money by our standards.

[Davy Mac]

Lets hope we get some positive media news about the signing and the money we've spent rather than all this negative crap from last Thursday. Appreciate the result was dire but the negativity has been well over the top and in truth, the media looked like they enjoyed our pain.

[007]

Compared to Hearts' new forward, Tagawa, who according to Wikipedia has a career total of 37 goals in 277 games. Transfermarkt has his main position as centre forward but can also play on left and right. Last season about 80% of the time he played CF and he scored a goal every 605 minutes. Difference being that Vente is obviously coming in as 1st choice striker for us and Shankland, who didn't look in great shape against Leeds, will likely be their main man again for goals. The new lad seems to have good pace (not shown in these stats but saw it elsewhere), I'd guess they'll look to get them both on the pitch at the same time as much as possible.

Said it before. When Ron Gordon appeared at his first AGM one of the things he stressed was that the club had to aim to be in a position to pay higher wages .... That's what all the hospitality, mountains of different sponsorship deals and yes increased ticket prices are all about. No point in having half a million quid to buy a player if you can't pay the sort of wage they demand.

[theonlywayisup]

Well done Hibs for the Vente signing! An obvious change compared to last season's transfer policy.

A word or two of caution, though! Midfield and Edwin de Graaf - yes, more than two words :greengrin

It's great having a goal-scoring striker (:pray:), but we need to be more creative in midfield or down the flanks to give him opportunities to score. In many games last season, we had games when we dominated play but created not much. Having Vente might not change that, when you think that Vente is replacing Nisbet. We need one more creative, goal-scoring midfield and then I'll be happy!

Remember the joy when we signed Edwin de Graaf - just saying!

I'll reserve my judgement until I see him in the flesh with a Hibs top on, but it certainly looks like a real positive move by Hibernian FC.

[Colr]

Liked the footage of the goals he’s scored but he won’t get the space or time that he gets in the Dutch second division. He’ll need a bit of time to adapt.

Joe Baker scoring a club record 42 goals in 33 league games during the 1959–60 season.

More recently Griffiths scored 23 in 12/13 league season. He also got a few in the Scottish cup so it’s probably 28 or so across all comps

I'm a bit apprehensive about this one. A wedge of cash and a big gamble. Have we ever spent big on a striker and had it work - Stokes is the only one coming to mind and Riordan's return but both already knew the league and had scored goals here.

Would rather there was an extra year on the contract too as now the best case scenario is he's brilliant from the get go and we manage to tie him up for longer in the first year otherwise if he's great there will be pressure to sell at the end of year 1. Not that that would be a bad thing if it goes well.

From watching the videos, I hadn't realised that he's 6 ft 1 which, along with his assists and lack of dribbling numbers, suggests he could be a positive blend alongside Youan and Boyle.

Fingers crossed with a bit of nerves.

Great to see he started all 38 games last season for Roda. Durability is almost as important as talent for us here.

[I'm Spartacus]

This boy is going to be a massive hit, you can tell from the highlights, big target man who is quick to finish (that what my Mrs says to me too).

Hate to say it but Tagawi does look really good. Big, strong and powerful and quite possibly a real presence. The level he’s been at also looks easily as good, if not better than the Dutch second division. Am really happy with the look of Vente and am sure he’ll do well for us but wouldn’t have minded Tagawa as well from the look of him. Really hope they haven’t unearthed a gem here.

rAngers fan Gordon Durie was a spotty faced teenager when he arrived from East Fife :greengrin
I doubt he cost us much of a "wedge".
We sold him for a wedge ! Hope there was "sell ons"
Jimmy O and George Stewart coached Durie along with the other younger players at the time.
It was Jimmy who gave Durie his nickname. "Juke box"
Taken from a 1960s tv music quiz show called "Juke Box Jury"

In fact ,Jimmy had a nickname for near everyone, including the Tornadoes !
We had an uncle in the Grassmarket,Tommy Flynn, who could not have a conversation without continually using rhyming slang .
Jimmy got it from him,i suppose.

Keith Wright was in his mid 20s,banging them in for Dundee .
So that would have been a decent fee.
Keith was at Hibs as a youngster on an S form.
Once again, Jimmy O coached him and Keith mentions Jimmy's influence in interviews about his career.
A real Hibernian is Keith.Thats a fact !

That would have been a welcome bit of cash for East Fife at that time.
Although Gordon was born in the West of Scotland,i think he was raised in Fife, hence being at the "Fifers"
He eventually acheived his footballing dream.

We got our moneys worth bringing Keith to the club.
Although, like some other players i knew ,he would have played in the Green and White for the love of it !!

There are a few similar in the dressing room today.

I went to that game in Methil, it was a replay iirc, but I don't think Durie scored.

The most memorable thing I remember was going for pre-match beers in a boozer which was a real dive, the Castle maybe? One of the guys we were with asked the barmaid if they had any fancy lager or something, (I can't remember the actual brand).

She looked scathingly at him and said "Son, we've got broon beer and we've got yelly beer". :faf:

I found this '

EAST FIFE 2, HIBERNIAN 0 Third round replay, 31 January 1984


This wasn't Hibs' most glorious era, while East Fife, their third-round opponents, ended the season runners-up in the Second Division. Still, it was shock enough when Dave Clarke's team held Hibs at Easter Road in the first match, never mind when they went on to win 2-0 in the replay.
It was the first time a team from the bottom league had beaten a Premier Division side since reconstruction in 1975.
The Bayview side went ahead in the first half through Tom McCafferty, but heroics from Hibs goalkeeper Alan Rough – who was found after the game to have suffered a broken ankle – kept the tie alive, until local hero Stevie Kirk rose to bullet a header into the net for the second, clinching goal.
Hibs were to experience further Scottish Cup embarrassment in 1999, beaten by Second Division Stirling Albion after a replay.:grr:
At least only one division separated the teams then :cb

Apologies thought Durie had scored think he played well though. Was at that game huge Hibs support and we were very poor.

[Mick O'Rourke]

I went to that game in Methil, it was a replay iirc, but I don't think Durie scored.

The most memorable thing I remember was going for pre-match beers in a boozer which was a real dive, the Castle maybe? One of the guys we were with asked the barmaid if they had any fancy lager or something, (I can't remember the actual brand).

She looked scathingly at him and said "Son, we've got broon beer and we've got yelly beer". :faf:

Hate to say it but Tagawi does look really good. Big, strong and powerful and quite possibly a real presence. The level he’s been at also looks easily as good, if not better than the Dutch second division. Am really happy with the look of Vente and am sure he’ll do well for us but wouldn’t have minded Tagawa as well from the look of him. Really hope they haven’t unearthed a gem here.


Unless I’m looking at the wrong guy he has 37 goals in 277 games? That’s abysmal for a forward.


Don’t worry. This is Hibs. He’ll be out injured within the month!

He's talking about their new guy, Tagawa.

[Mick O'Rourke]

Apologies thought Durie had scored think he played well though. Was at that game huge Hibs support and we were very poor.
Good (or bad) that you remembered the game.
If Durie had a good game that night,it may well have helped secure his move to us a few months later.
He then went on to make a few bob in London and then with oldco.

If Dylan can emulate Keith or Gordon in a Hibs jersey we can hope for fireworks and some real exciting forward play with the flying wingers we have.

Don't you think kids who played "Japs and Commandos" would have used the term Paki? The term Paki shop was common parlance.

The point I was trying to make was that in those days, the awareness of racial issues was much less than it is today.

You just need to jook at the TV shows and the comedians of the time to realise that.

In addition I'm in my 40's and Paki was used all the time as was Jap. But I always thought it was used as an us and them mentality which I never really liked. But times have changed and so must we.

I agree with all of that.

Although comedic, your last comment illustrates a serious point. We all have a choice whether we want to deliberately offend someone or not.

Choosing to do so says much more about the person doing so than who it's directed at.

Genuinely unaware that could be seen as racist, certainly wasn't intended to be. The world these days thought you need to be very careful what you say. How that can be taken as racist is beyond me but I apologise if I've caused any offence. Suppose it's the manner it's said and how it's taken that's what determines it, personally if someone called me a Scot, or s Scottish **** or whatever, it wouldn't bother me, they'd be stating the obvious😂, but none the less I was meaning the Japanese boy.

[Jim44]

After his well publicised faux pas with racism, you would think he would try to be ultra careful and squeaky clean. Yes, Jap, is just a basically shortened version of Japanese, just like the use of Paki, but it is universally considered to be a term of racial abuse. When you’re in the spotlight for inappropriate language you would expect scrupulous care in what you say publicly. ‘Leopards and spots’ comes to mind.

The squad had to be submitted on Friday just gone (4th). Think that was when Mackay left? No idea if that squad listed on the UEFA website is the old one or the new one. In any case, after the squad was submitted on Friday we can add two new players (and remove ones if that puts us over the 25 man List A limit) up until midnight on Wednesday.

I don’t know about when Murray Johnson signed for us as a youth but there’s probably a good chance he will qualify as a List B squad member. We can have as many players as we want on List B (assuming they meet the List B qualifications) and they can be registered any time up to midnight on Wed too.

Got Boyle as Scottish, when in fitba terms he's Australian.

Also notice Rocky is a COD ... Should fit in well with Fish in defence :greengrin

Neither will allow any opposition poaching.

[Not In The Know]

Can he play Thursday?

Nobody seems to know.

I think the club have been good of late getting information out to the fans about a range of things - it would be good to receive an update on Vente in terms of availability etc.

[basehibby]

Wonder if this lad is looking for a loophole to get out of his contract after seeing yesterday's performance.😁
What a stupid comment.

[Scooter]

It's also good to keep the opposition guessing

[JimBHibees]

What a stupid comment.

To be fair smiley suggested it was a joke. :greengrin

Yeah true, but no the best that LJ will have the starting XI guessing with his cluelessness.

Who is Jay McGarva and Alf Smith

McGarva is one of the youngsters who has just signed a professional contract. A left-sided midfielder apparently.

Yeah I've noticed more in the last few years on any forums or social media that people take everything litereally.

Like this is my third account on here, I like it and used as read only. I found it when I started college probably just over 20 years ago before Mowbray took the reigns, I did make an account few years latercalled the CalypsoKing, stupid name related to Latapy lol, however I made two comments in one day. Neither of which were controversial but i tried to log in the next day and i couldnt log in, looked at it was faxed back to kaunas or whatever it was back then. as by the time i made that account it was still like around 15 years ago and i was in my early 20s and did and sayed stupid ****.

I then made another one like 8 years ago or something but I questioned the validity of, I wont name them even though I haven't seen them post in a while, however they were always the most ITK out of anyone they made out and I questioned the absurdity of one of the players he said we were making a serious offer for, boy got super pissed at me for questioning him and called me a jambo and I got banned.

Apart from that though over the last 20 years apart from the odd comment most on here do get the tongue in cheek or sarcasm ones I find, although it has got slightly worse for that the last few years. For some reason though there seemed to be a massive influx ov users during Scottish Cup and Neil Lennon Tenure etc. Which I suppose is only natural as a lot of older heads back in the day got older and post less frequenly and other things then younger people seeing it advertised possibly plus more successful years and they were then getting into later teens etc and again though I guess more genuine Hibee traffic is good for the forum and helps it stay afloat I would guess?

But yeah noticed it a bit here, I dont really use FB apart from messenger so have no idea about there but have visited twitter and ffs someone makes a tongue in cheek comment only to be replied to tons of times by ppl abusing them as they think they're being serious, this is on Hibs pages, some of which are toxic af though.

I mostly use Reddit for social media as you pick what kind of things your interested in viewing and it will show them on the front page, the other sport I follow closely is boxing and that sub along has over a million users I think so is very active but with fans from all over the world discussing a hot topic its easy to see why people miss the sarcasm etc.

There is also a Hibs page on there as even the non Hibs Scotland pages seem to be filled with more Scots now than Americans who claim to be Scottish nowadays which is good.

Just on any type of sub/thread etc though its crazy on their, people hardly had to do the /s until a few years ago and now its almost a necessity.

I'm not aiming that at this user who didn't get it. Just noticed it happening a lot more over the past few years than in the past


Ah **** im moaning about something an I've wrote a novel when all I cam to come on to ask is if even if the work permit has been cleared, wouldn't that just mean he's available for the next fixture or for the groups?

I thought in qualifying rounds you couldn't add a player who's work permit had been passed unless it was done before that stage of the competition and we would have to wait for groups(fingers crossed) for him to be available?

Or would that just be for example if he didn't get the permit before leg 1 byt rreceived inbterween then we couldn't use in same tie for second leg?

I've really no idea as its not this often we're in this position but he sounds like a good player and we paid a good bit of money for him so hopefully available as soon as possible.

You can't add a player to the squad between legs of the same tie, but you can add them between rounds. Vente is in our squad: https://www.uefa.com/uefaeuropaconferenceleague/clubs/52821--hibernian//squad/

Would Vente be able to play in Switzerland? Irrespective of work permit?

[Silky]

Would Vente be able to play in Switzerland? Irrespective of work permit?

I'm not sure. Everything I can see states he needs a permit to play in the UK. I would imagine that because his employer is UK based then he will require the permit to provide his services to his employer whether that is in the UK or not. But I don't know.

[LewysGot2]

He played youth in Sweden so perhaps has Swedish citizenship? He was listed as Swedish in the last round too

Yup spent his formative years in Sweden at Husqvarna :thumbsup:

Don’t know all the ins and outs of it, but I’d assume we can’t register him as our player without a UK work permit, and if we can’t register him then we can’t include him in the squad we submit to UEFA.

Maybe there’s more to it, but I think the fact that he’s in the squad listed by UEFA means he must have his work permit.

I cannot see anything official from Hibs to say his permit is through yet so I assume we're hoping it comes through tomorrow.

The SFA allow a player to be registered without a work permit, they just can’t play or train.

If he isn't available then questions have to be asked as to how Hertz managed to play their new Japanese guy 4 days after he signed.

[Hibernian Verse]

He is a full international

Japanese isn't in Europe. Honestly it could be that simple.

My niece and nephews have duel citizenship with UK and France. They forgot the youngest UK passport when they went to France. When trying to get home. The youngest was stopped (he's only 13) amd asked where he was going, whens he's going back all these kind of questions. His mum and dad try to explain he has a UK passport but it's at home (Edinburgh) and still wouldn't let him go. They eventually got a relative in Edinburgh to go get his passport and faced time them to prove he had a passport.

Not every visa application is the same. Tagawa doesn’t have enough points to qualify for a Governing Body Exemption (GBE) but he does have enough to meet the governments newly introduced Elite Significant Contribution (ESC) criteria which makes it easier to gain a WP.

By meeting the ESC criteria, Hearts could apply directly to the Home Office for Tagawa’s visa. Without GBE/ESC criteria being met, we have to go through an SFA exemption panel in order to receive endorsement for Vente to submit with his visa application.

https://www.footballscotland.co.uk/spfl/scottish-premiership/dylan-vente-faces-hibs-euro-27484156

He’s already been registered for the Euro game.

It’s whether or not he has received his work permit which is the question we don’t have an answer to.

[Since452]

There's nothing more frustrating than waiting for a players work permit to clear. We could do with a wee boost ahead of tomorrow. I don't think Doidge deserves to be dropped but having Vente on the bench would give everyone a lift.

Isn't the different that they got the paperwork done before announcing, we've announced with the paperwork still to be completed?

Either way it causes a meltdown "FFS we need a striker, the club aren't doing anything" "Come on, what's happening with this new striker we've *****ed cash on"

No, I’ve already explained the difference above.
