Winter transfer thread 2023/24

[Tyler Durden]

Wonder if Bevan will be a permanent?

Having three 20 year old centre half on loan seems a bit odd

Yeah if we look back last year, we went to Tannadice with 2 young inexperienced CBs and they lost us the game.

No matter the potential, young CBs are a risk. We’ve put ourselves in a similar position rather than sign some experience. Not really good enough IMO

[04Sauzee]

A little over 5hrs to go, if we get Bevan over the line I'd assume that's our business done.

Slightly different in that example as Egan Riley wasn’t really a centre half but I agree with the general point.

For all the talk about tactics etc, it’s the really soft, basic goals that we lose that is the biggest issue. If we don’t stop that, we’ll continue to struggle. Big ask for some pretty untested players to come in and change that.

[SHODAN]

Would be happy enough with Bevan the only further in, anything else would be a bonus. It's been a good window.

Saints are delighted to announce the signing of striker Adama Sidibeh who joins for an undisclosed fee from Northern Premier League club Warrington Rylands. 25 year old Adama has signed until May 2026. Full details & interview tomorrow! Welcome to Perth Adama! #SJFC

We have brought in a guy who was a key part of Monty winning a title last season! That's tested and passed! Let's see how he does here 😁

Not tested in our league. Look at the time it took Lewis Miller to adapt, and some would argue he’s still short of where he needs to be.

Not writing him off at all, I just thought going in to the window that an experienced, proven centre back would have been a certainty.

[04Sauzee]

Looks now like Van Veen has chosen Killie.

[Gordy M]

Bizarrely enough for twitter, the overwhelming view from Sunderland fans is that this lad is good player and hoping that its only a loan as they are looking for him to return.....good signs.

[Torto7]

Fish is miles off the levels kerr was at with st Johnstone. Kerr much more of a leader and aggressive. Fish gets bullied as easy as Hanlon does.

Fish is rated at Man Utd and is being linked with big championship clubs. McCart was as good as Kerr in that team and well he's not that good either.

You limit our options somewhat with the category of played in Scotland, available to loan or buy, experienced and good on the ball to play our style.

Not fussed about them having played in Scotland, but a more comparative league than the A-League. Competent enough on the ball would suffice. Darren McGregor was never brilliant on the ball despite the song, but I think we’re desperate for someone who is just willing to Do whatever it takes to keep the ball out of the net. Hopefully the two coming in make us better at doing that.

To be honest I don’t fully get the Bevan signing. Especially if Triantis is our first choice, so you’d assume he starts along with Fish.

Bevan, Hanlon and Rocky as backup. No chance we’re naming three CB’s on the bench.

McInnes is very good at selling a player a move tbf. Not too surprised he’s managed to pull it off out of the other clubs keen.

This lads on loan so almost risk free.

Wouldn’t surprise me if the Bevan deal was officially completed before we got word that Triantis was available again so ended up with both.

Still, with Hanlon getting on in age and picking up niggling injuries here and there, it could be a good problem to have. Paul’s done quite enough playing through injury with injections and the like during his career.

[Broxburn Greens]

Not disagreeing but we’ve signed players that it could be argued are a better calibre than Van Veen.

For all I know we could be going with Bevan and Triantis as starters. If that’s the case and we’ve brought in two starters better than we have then it’s brilliant.

I see the main benefit being that it makes the CB spot a much more competitive one. Previously it was perm two from three, now it's 2 from 5, keeps everyone on their toes.

The one thing he always had at Aberdeen was a really good midfielder. Not sure he has that at Killie. Also, I think their goalie is a bit shonky. His teams are always solid, well drilled and great work ethic. The problem he has is that those things might be okay in the short term, but if a club are looking at long term growth, as we are, and trying to increase player value over a period of time, then that style has its limitations. There is a definite ceiling for players in a McInnes team unless they're a total standout. Lewis Ferguson being the obvious one.

[Musselbound]

Could he maybe go on loan? Don't think it would do any harm for him to play a bit more and see what he can do.

They couldn't sell him in this window, they just couldn't. One man team, by and large. They have third pretty much in the bag with Shankland there, imagine if they sold him and tumbled down the table? It would be season tickets and scarves on the pitch at Tiny, and quite rightly so tbh. He'll hopefully go to the Euros in the summer, score some great goals for Scotland and move on then. Or...he picks up one niggling injury after another for the remainder of his contract and leaves on a free. That would be nice.

See again that’s something I think is a bit of a myth, over his time there he must have brought in a decent amount of money and developed players which got them good moves.

Ryan Jack, Scott McKenna, Scott Wright, Sam Cosgrove, Lewis Ferguson, Graeme Shinnie, Kenny McLean,

Then a couple of really good loans like Maddison, Christie, Ward and Hector which really helped their careers.

All gone quiet today on Penrice. Wonder if he’s still an option?

No, he's too old and experienced for Hibs' defence.

[VoltaireHibs]

Interesting to see what the defence looks like come Saturday.

Who will partner Fish? Or will Bevan and Triantis both start?

I’m expecting Triantis to partner Fish due to Montgomery link.

Good thing is both are meant to be really good and comfortable on the ball.


This is so important in the system NM wants to play. If we have a CB that can stroll out of defence with the ball, and hit accurate passes, it helps move the whole team 20 yards up the pitch. Also takes the pressure off our much maligned midfield.

[SteveHFC]

Van veen confirmed at Killie. Would have love him here. Ah well

Wonder who Mclaughlin is referring to...

Don’t go to bed just yet, Hibs fans…

We keep ignoring obvious signing opportunities like VV, while taking punt after punt that doesn't come off. It's as if the people in charge want to make things more difficult for themselves.

Its been the best window for Hibs for years. Not sure what you expected.

[Unseen work]

No idea who or what position this new player could be.

Penrice in is the only one I could see

[Donegal Hibby]

With Emiliano supposed to be a set piece specialist and the signings of two defenders over 6 foot hopefully we get abit more joy from corners and freekicks now too .

Dripping with Jambos here ho hum. Marcondes and Maolida were the best players on the park on Saturday as they should be by their resume. On paper and the park it was a good window on Saturday I'm confident a few will shine

[GreenNWhiteArmy]

Would make sense moving HM back down to England. He's just not cut out for scottish football unfortunately and will never push us forward imo

Hindsight might make us reflect differently, but this feels like a very strong window

[21sMay]

Dripping with Jambos here ho hum. Marcondes and Maolida were the best players on the park on Saturday as they should be by their resume. On paper and the park it was a good window on Saturday I'm confident a few will shine

Agree . Very good signing made this January

[Keepthefaith]

Its been the best window for Hibs for years. Not sure what you expected.

exactly - and not sure how marcondes and maolida can be described as punts given what they have shown in their performance against killie - obvious class above what we have but because we haven't signed an old fashioned no 9 type which myth tells us we need in the Scottish game then folk are still being critical of the club. Van Even was playing for Scunthorpe I think before he went to Motherwell and think they were in the conference at the time. if we'd taken a punt on him then, the same poster would have been critical of that too!

the manager now has players in who fit his system. its clear all of the new players have made ref to the style of play as being important in their decision to come here, along with the demands that they are comfortable and confident on the ball. I really think this window couldn't have gone much better - every area the fans had noted as priority has been attended to and come the summer I think we'll see further strengthening of the defence at full back too. reckon we'll be moving quite a few on...

[hibsbollah]

Once everyone back for international duty and Cadden/ALF back to fitness we have depth we haven't had in a while

Stopping crosses has been a major downfall for us for a while, defence has taken a lot of fault for goals conceded but most of the time it's coming from not stopping balls into the box

[Unseen work]

I understand a lot of peoples frustration about Van Veen as he’s more or less guaranteed goals and a really good player at this level.

Signing for a club above us in the league and competition for 4th.

Come the end of the season it will be interesting if he has more goals than Vente, Maolida etc

Only good thing is Youan will have to perform or be benched. It might be what he needs he's obviously class on his day, same for Boyle, Maolida too. We have options.

If Youan doesn't start playing like a team player and not his usual Youan FC, he'll be on the bench more often than not. I love it that we now have serious competition all over the pitch.

Not rated at all by Swansea fans

Hardly surprising, scored one goal and barely been fit. Just checked his career stats, 66 games as a pro, 10 goals in total, five of them for us in fifteen games. He's a good footballer, and physically a very athletic guy, and sometimes big young guys pick up lots of injuries until they fully mature, but his injury record is a bit of a horror show. Someone might win a watch with him one day, but prefer if it wasn't us that took the gamble.
