Another must win…Hibernian v Livingston

[Hibby Kay-Yay]

We seem to say this all the time now, it’s another big game for Hibs and LJ.

Team news and updates here.

KO 3pm.

(Deleted original thread due to wrong Prefix)

[EGL2000]

Confident today, LJ has a good record in the "must win" games.

[Hibby Kay-Yay]

XI: Marshall, Fish, Youan, Boyle, Newell (c), Jeggo, Obita, Doidge, Harbottle, Delferrière, Rocky.

Subs: Boruc, Miller, Hanlon, Vente, Stevenson, Le Fondre, Campbell, Molotnikov, Megwa.

So is it:

Marsh

Harbottle
Fish
Rocky
Obita

Delf
Jeggo
Newell

Boyle
Doidge
Youan

Harbottle

Rocky
Obita

Delf
Jeggo

Youan

The best way to set up the players he’s picked is a 4-2-3-1 imo.

Marshall

Harbottle
Rocky
Fish
Obita

Jeggo
Delferriere

Boyle
Newell
Youan

Doidge

Still a very poor side though.

I reckon 3-4-3.

[Since452]

Really encouraging lineup. Let's get the 3 points.

[Hibs90]

Why is Vente not starting???

[LewysGot2]

Why is Vente not starting???

Nope.

Clearly a lot of resting going on as opposed to "dropping".

[Hibby70]

Why is Vente not starting???

He'll not score 6 goals on Thursday if he doesn't get a rest

[Hibs90]

He'll not score 6 goals on Thursday if he doesn't get a rest

If he's fit he should be playing. We paid huge money for him and the guy is a goal scorer. Baffling decision.

[Mikey_1875]

Another tombola selection. At least we have plenty threat going forward.

Can Harbottle play right back?

If I was a betting man 4/1 on Livi today would be tempting.

If we lose, LJ is gone IMO.

[Northernhibee]

Never stopped him throwing people in there before.

Think this is how we’ll set up.

Dont think this will be pretty, 3 points is all I'm asking for today.

[Paul1642]

I’m glad to see the defence dropped. They’ve been awful this season

[Fuzzywuzzy]

Google updates had it listed as a 3-4-3. Can't find the link again

3 out of 4 will do.

[J-C]

Looks like 352, why is there 2 DM's playing in a 352 formation? there's only Newell with any creativity in there, if Boyle is a wingback then he's wasted there and I wonder who the half time sub will be, either Jeggo or Delferriere.

[Allant1981]

Definitely warming up as a 4

Doidge playing over our big summer signing sums up our transfer ethos. A guy deemed not good enough to play for us last season starts ahead of our marquee signing of the summer.

Doidge playing over our big summer signing sums up our transfer ethos. A guy deemed not good enough to play for us last season starts ahead of our marquee signing of the summer.

He wasn't even deemed good enough at the start of this season. The club were trying to get rid of him at the start of the window.

[jamie_1875]

Perhaps it's felt that Doidge is a better option against the Livi defence?

He wasn't the better option last year as we punted him on loan, but now he is?

I get what you are saying but it just depresses me we sign so many players yet stick with the ones we know have not been good enough the season before.

[Hibby Kay-Yay]

Hibernian boss Lee Johnson says his side are "desperate" to pick up their first points of the Premiership season as they take on Livingston at Easter Road.

He tells BBC Scotland: "It's the impetus of energy that's the key for us today. We've been asking these boys to go beyond the call of duty in term of energy levels.

"I just felt today we needed to shake things up. There's a lot of hungry, motivated lads who maybe haven't had the opportunities they would have liked.

"We want [to win] desperately. We want to get our domestic season up and running. We'll give our all to get three points."

Asked what kind of reception he anticipates from the Easter Road crowd: "I expect it to be positive. We're all Hibs fans here and want to win the game. When the fans get behind us, it's really special."

[Gatecrasher]

Very poor crowd today.

[Hibbyradge]

Doidge on to rough up the Livi defence in the first half.

Bring on the ballers in the second.

[cabbageandribs1875]

the sun is shining on sunny Leith today

[Bad Habits]

Good God, we've played like 8 tough, competitive games in 4 weeks, if we're not going to rotate now then where are we?

If these players weren't good enough to be squad players for hibs why don't we just have 11 players and play them every game?

Lining up as a 4 in the warm up with Harbottle RB

[B.H.F.C]

It's because the team is too narrow.

In this instance he also has Harbottle at right back.

I really don’t get the folk that turn their nose up at Nouble.

I’m glad we didn’t go for him because he’d have been too expensive. Very decent at what he does, though.

Marshall takes a nasty one.

[Just Alf]

Do you deny they've been completely hopeless this season?Better than other options who were playing on occasion, yes.

As good as we want for a successful Hibs team? That's another question.

Bottom line is we need to sign players who are consistently better than them overall before they dropped to the level of back ups.

Problem is every time 'others' get a chance to be the natural 1st pick they don't take it.

I was late getting in, just after they scored so I hate to think what went before.

From the little I’ve seen Delf looks good, Doidge looks isolated and Boyle is struggling to live up to his previous high standards.

I've retired to the terrace with a large g&t (gorgeous 30C here)... Could watch on the phone, but why spoil my afternoon any further?

[Pedantic_Hibee]

I tske it Boyle Youan snd Doidge isn’t really working

Neither is ‘a’ on your keyboard by the looks of things 😉

[DH1875]

Delfierre in midfield the only bright spark so far.

Will still get folk on here trying to tell you he's a RB.

Where are you. Not in Scotland I imagine

[Vault Boy]

A better sequence there between Newell, Youan, and Jeggo. Still zero end product though.

[Jones28]

You can't be serious

Yeah, very much so. I think theres things to be positive about.

[Torto7]

have we had a shot yet?

[chrisski33]

I think we’re playing quite well.

Aye sure you do 🤔

[one day maybe...]

Sitting bottom of the league.... After 3 opening fixtures you'd have expected us to at least take 6 points from... BBC Scotland ripping us a new one...

[Hibee Daft]

Lewis Miller should be playing unless injured, he is a good player.

Playing Harbottle is Johnsons way of blaming the players for that 5-0 result instead of his inept coaching and tactics.

[Hibs90]

Michael Stewart spot on again

[cabbageandribs1875]

3-1 shots


on target 0-1

[James70]

Still not a shot on target against bloody Livingston, we really are the gift that keeps on giving.

[Jones28]

Aye sure you do 🤔

Why would I pretend I think we’re not?

[cameronw-hfc]

Newell and Delf doing okay in CM, Obita and Youan looking OK on the left but otherwise everyone else seems to be struggling. Boyle hasn't lost pace but looks like he's still a bit short of match fitness.

Something something identity something?

[Northernhibee]

I’m genuinely concerned that we stick with LJ for too long and we end up in a similar situation to Dundee United last year.

A decent bunch of individuals on paper but too laboured in attack, too soft in defence, nothing in midfield, and no confidence.

[Vault Boy]

If we get back into this game, it’ll be down Youan’s side

[Is It On....]

Harbottle having a tough time at RB? Seems mad to play him out of position.

Manager knows best; after all he knows what it's like to go to Villa Park 👍

[Jack Hackett]

Where are you. Not in Scotland I imagine

Costa Blanca... been 30 or more for the last 3 months

[blackpoolhibs]

Take Youan out the team and we'd be Stranraer.:rolleyes:

[Hibs90]

Nouble ripping the piss

[chrisski33]

Why would I pretend I think we’re not?

Your deluded if you think we are playing well!

[GreenNWhiteArmy]

Boyle anonymous. Jeggo very poor

[Is It On....]

Yeah, very much so. I think theres things to be positive about.

Losing the first goal takes away the fear of losing the first goal ?

[Torto7]

****** Livi knocking it about looking comfortable. LJ can get to ****. I've seen enough and I'm a happy clapper.

[Smartie]

They started badly.

Youan has come to life a bit last 5 and Doidge won a decent header.

Folk are frustrated but it’s been slightly better (just as Doidge miscontrols a ball thumped into his feet with no Hibs player near him).

[Hibs90]

Get Vente on the park man.

[Bostonhibby]

Losing the first goal takes away the fear of losing the first goal ?I'm not sure that still holds true, especially if the masterplan includes zero shots on target.
