Didn't think I'd make it home to watch the game but traffic was better than expected. I've had to switch over to bbc as hibs TV is unbearable. Thought it was just my source
Even game now, back in in. Couple of chances.

Done well last 20 minutes or so.
Miller improved massively as did the whole team, need Stevenson to lift his performance a bit without sounding harsh.
Need to get the ball into Vente more, like the look of Alf with his movement and touch when he gets it.
Still think Boyle is quite a bit away from 100% and Youan is having one of his frustrating performances

Not much in it. They’ve got some tidy players but only seem to really have one ball into the channel for ideas. Could go either way, which is kind of how the bookies called it. Think we need a 2 goal lead to take over there, but a big ask.
Mikey_1875
10-08-2023, 07:20 PM
Not much in it. Maybe with us edging it. Feel like they will have a lot more to offer in the next leg though so we need something second half.
Vente doesn’t look fully fit yet so I’d consider bringing Doidge on sooner than later.

They play decent football but when Hibs get about them they struggle. Hibs can win this tie over the two legs. I think we've played well in parts. Hopefully we can score one or two in the second half.
HarpOnHibee
10-08-2023, 07:21 PM
We're often too slow to get forward and by the time we do, there are too many numbers behind the ball. We need to find a way of picking up the pace when we counter. It's the only way we're going to cut that defence open and create clear opportunities.
The Modfather
10-08-2023, 07:21 PM
Decent enough half. We’re a limited team in comparison to them and it’s played out like we’re the away team.
They look the kind of team we should try to build. A proper team, quality and well drilled.
really pleased to see Millar play himself into the game after a tough first 10/15
Come onto a good game, pleased for the boy has had some unreasonable criticism, need more from Youan.

Pressing well, midfield cutting out passes, Boyle and Vente haven’t seen much of the ball, Lewis having a mare.
lyonhibs
10-08-2023, 07:22 PM
Youan not at the races but the team is competing physically, no lack of effort and in the last 10-15 stopped treating the ball solely as a ticking time bomb.
Huge 2nd half. Run out of steam/ideas and our goose might be cooked, stick to the task in hand and score a goal in the first 20 minutes then who knows.
Onion
10-08-2023, 07:22 PM
Tough 45 but good energy from Hibs. They’re technically better and I’d like to see us move the ball quicker but we’ve as much chance of scoring as they have. Like the new guy, Vente.

I thought it wasn’t on HTV - got it live on Swiss TV - good picture and coverage - went to look at HTV - nothing - back to Swiss TV for me.
Nowt between these teams, similar levels of clubs, we're hitting on the break with our pace but some of the passing and final balls are poor, giving up the midfield is a dangerous strategy.

Tambo
10-08-2023, 07:23 PM
A good first 5 minutes and then we let them control the game at the back while keeping a decent shape.
Miller looked a bit shakey but definitely grew in to the game and Paul Hanlon has also done well at the back.
Some good touches from Vente and ALF, we just need a bit more service to them.

Yep and surprising, we have a decent amount of pace in the side now and should be stretching them
easty
10-08-2023, 07:24 PM
Definitely more composure in their team, but hardly a surprise given we have only 2 midfielders.
Decent half. Newell playing well, Levitt always making himself available. Millet has definitely picked up after a shaky start.
DinkyTwo
10-08-2023, 07:24 PM
Over the years Lewis Stevenson did help out going forward, but in the last couple of years he has slowed a little and stayed back a little more.
Miller on the other side does not have the ability to play out, but he has a long throw. The modern game needs full backs who can play, we've none.Even with two wingers and two central strikers?
I agree that both are limited but tonight I just want them to defend and use the ball well, unlocking the wide forwards. They haven't been good enough at that for me though.

With Youan and Boyle having pace, we have a good chance of scoring away. If we score first over there they will start doubting.

Naw. They have pace to burn wide so think we’ve done well to deny them that.
Reasonably controlled performance so far but if we ship the first goal it won’t count for much.
Still was expecting the worst when the team sheet arrived but so far so OK

Half time thoughts (though open to revising at full time!)
- Levitt and Newell make a good base of our midfield, but they need someone more dynamic in front of them to link with the forwards. We’ve looked dangerous when Newell carries but it doesn’t happen often enough.
- Miller should be out right back, no question. Like a decent player but needs game time. Desire and attitude looks spot on
- Vente looks good, allowing for him probably not having training with his teammates. Makes clever little runs and looks like he has a good understanding. Not sure how he’ll cope against really physical SPFL centrehalfs.
- Yoann needs to be more direct. It must be infuriating to play with him as he’s just that little bit overly complicated. Drop the shoulder, burn the full back for pace and get the ball moving
- ALF’s attitude is spot on. Chases down and harries defenders, not afraid of doing the dirty work. Looks like he’s be a useful player to help bring younger guys on, much in the same way that Brewster did years ago

It looks similar to the rieka game,
Where the opposition coming out the blocks quick to feel us out, and have now backed off until the second leg.

With Youan and Boyle having pace, we have a good chance of scoring away, particularly if we score first.
Agree with that. If we don't concede I'll be a bit surprised.

He’s the weak link more and more these days and we need better if we want to compete this season. Overall I’ve been fairly impressed by Hibs against what are clearly a good team. If we’d performed to this level against St Mirren we’d have taken 3 points no problem.
That’s the problem with this Hibs team right now. The quality is there. The consistency is not. Let’s hope for the good version of Hibs in the second half because the win in there for the taking.

Battling each other in the air and leaving a free header, disappointing
Just keep going as we were Hibs, plenty of time to get back in front
Marshall should have caught the first corner instead of flapping it away

The flap at the cross prior was weak af.
Goal was caused by Miller practicing his rugby tackle technique on Levitt

The double change will mean we've gone to a 4-3-1-2 with Dorn, Jashari and Beloko playing centre mid, Meyer as the CAM and Ademi/Villiger up top.

Just not good enough defensively at times. Marshall catches the cross and it doesn't happen, but marking and Newell / Fish collision just made it so easy to tap in.
Why was Fish on the left and not in his usual position?

Has Boyle been moved into the middle? Either that or he's shattered. 2 or 3 times he's made no effort to show on the right for Miller and is right on top of Vente.
silverhibee
10-08-2023, 07:50 PM

As said above he should have collected it from the 1st corner rather than flap at like he did, it was catchable.

How anyone can think that Newell isn’t a good pot baller is beyond me. Frustrating at times, but sees passes and does the things that other folk in our team can’t.

Other than stopping him getting a run at the ball?

Both have out in a good shift but it think it’s time for Campbell for Levitt and then maybe Jeggo for Newell in 10 mins.

Referee needs to get a grip on some of these tackles. There’s an argument that both the challenge on Vente and that one on Miller could be reds.
