No Newell is a miss

Big game for Kwon

Youan out is a worry too, never thought Boyle and Hoilett worked great last game

[Tambo]

Mon the Hibs let's get another 3 points today.

[Albert Kidd 86’]

Beginning to fear that Youan is history. I hope I am wrong…

[DaveF]

5 on the bench that have had little to no game time and another who is retiring.

I think he's away.

That team shows just how badly we need reinforcements in January too.

I suspect he has a January transfer injury and nothing more than that.

All 5 would not have been a surprise if they had been released in the last 24 hours. I think there will be a few arrivals in the next couple of weeks.

Fresh for Sunday, hopefully

[wookie70]

Some big misses in that 11 but we have enough to go and win. Big day for Kwon as he will be a big part in our success or otherwise today I think. Hopefully Hoilett is a bit sharper than he was against Killie too as he has shown how good he can be

[Onceinawhile]

Take it with a huge scoop of salt, but chat where I sit on Saturday was that there's a bid in and we don't won't him injured whilst it's negotiated.

[Golden Bear]

Let's hope the team has figured out a plan on how to play without Joe Newell.

He was sadly missed in the 2nd half v Kilmarnock.

[TT07]

I thought in the first half v Killie the interchange of positions for the forward players was really causing them problems we just didn't get a 2nd goal.

[Hibees1973]

This game may be similar to the Kilmarnock one.

Attritional and first goal will be vital.

As others have said the squad looks very thin and we will not be able to control this game minus Newell. His replacement (Kwon) on Sunday was dire and he really needs to step up here.

Might need to settle for a draw here today.

Not a chance we should be settling for a draw, St Johnstone are rank rotten and that team should have more than enough about them to win

Wish we could just 'release' a few. This however comes with a heavy financial penalty for the club in paying up their contracts.

[Mcbizz1998]

I’m a wee bit worried based on that team tbh. Newell will be a miss, big game for Kwon.

[Unseen work]

St Johnstone team

…………………Rae……….

…….Mikulic…Sanders…Raymond….

Franczak….Sprangler…Holt…..Wright….

……………………….Clark…..

…………….Kimpioka……Sidibeh…..

If that is the formation, it looks incredibly fragile defensively.

The front 3 could cause us problems though. Front two are rapid and strong and Clark has that bit of finesse and experience

[green day]

St Johnstone are missing a couple of starters as well.

We just need to trust that our quality will shine today.

[silverhibee]

Hopefully being put in the shop window

[CapitalGreen]

We won comfortably against St Johnstone earlier in the season without Joe Newell.

[silverhibee]

We would be off our heads to let Youan go this window, I’m confident he will be here after January. :flag:

[JeMeSouviens]

Not so sure about that. If his agent is waving a decent offer under his nose and we don't let him move, the toys may be about to exit the pram. :dunno:

[Smartie]

A couple of additional players missing and it starts to look a bit worrying.

I don’t like Kwon and Triantis together, it’s never worked and Newell will be a big loss.

Youan is a difference maker and without him it’s very much a square peg in a round hole.

Positives - St Johnstone are pish, and Iredale making it means there’s no significant defensive disruption - and if we keep it tight (which we’ve proven to be capable of doing) then we only need a quick flash of inspiration to nick the game.

Squad looks paper thin though and these injuries and knocks look to be biting. If it doesn’t go our way today, it won’t be because Gray should have brought Amos or McKirdy should have been brought on earlier, it’s because they shouldn’t be anywhere near having to be used.

wasnt Sprangler one of the Ghostbusters?

[Musselbound]

Without wishing to start another Newell debate, I think any two of three between Triantis, Kwon or Newell is not that much of a concern. The bench does look a bit light with a few players who might not be here at the end of the month.

[Greenbeard]

I agree Kwon needs to improve significantly on his Killie showing. But who do you play if not him? Dilly Dally Leave It?
Likewise Hoillet who needs to sharpen up and get the finger out.

[PHeffernan]

Starting XI
13. Jordan Smith (GK)
2. Lewis Miller

35. Rudi Molotnikov


All 20 available first team players at Hibs are in the match squad today. No players kicking their heals after recent departures.

From the walking wounded, Iredale starts, O'Hora is on the bench and Newell doesn't make it.
Don't think we will see Joe again until late this month given his aggravation of an existing groin condition. Not good.

Molotnikov back today but Kuharevych likely to miss the Rangers game before returning.

Bowie and Erik Potato will return at the end of the month to bolster the numbers.

Youan appears to have another bout of transfer injuryitis. A good chance we may never see him again in a Hibs strip.

His absense leaves us very light up front again today. Need to get Gayle on after an hour if we are not 2 ahead by then.

Elsewhere in the team, Kwon needs to be pushed forward today. It's where he does his best work.
Played well after coming on against Hearts. Needs to start making his mark every week, starting today.

St Johnstone strength is attacking and their weakness is defending.
Accordingly, Hibs need to go for it today from the off with a view to breaking into the top 6.

[silverhibee]

Wish we could just 'release' a few. This however comes with a heavy financial penalty for the club in paying up their contracts.

Or just explain to said players that they have no future at the club and won’t be in the managers plans and it would be best for them to find a new club, if they decide to stay then they train away from the squad and only pick up the basic wage.

[andrew_dundee]

I reappy hope that we haven't seen the last of Youan, but, if we have, him winding up Hearts with their corner flag is exactly how you would want his time with us to end.

[GreenNWhiteArmy]

Nothing silly please Hibs

Kwon and Triantis worked fine the last time we played St Johnstone, which was our best result in our first 14 games.

It also worked well at Ibrox where we put in our best performance there in over 5 years and our draw against Hearts when everyone expected us to get beat.

[Stuart93]

I’d have preferred NMW in there as opposed to Kwon. I don’t rate Kwon much.

I’m hoping he proves me wrong

[WhileTheChief..]

St J have been garbage with their new manager.

A nice comfy win for us today to keep the momentum going into the New Year.

With the players missing that we have any sort of winning would be a great effort today.

The game against the Yam on Boxing day should have been a comfy win.

I know he is away and wasn't a long term answer but JDH is a better player than Kwon imo

[Calidad]

Would have liked to have seen Levitt instead of Kwon. But then again, I can’t recall the last time he got any minutes on the pitch!

[Lago]

I'm being positive and optimistic.
I'm being honest

[CapitalGreen]

I know he is away and wasn't a long term answer but JDH is a better player than Kwon imo

He could be the best player in the world, it’s utterly meaningless if he is never available to play.

[Donegal Hibby]

A few players out just goes to highlight how weak the squad is … certainly hoping we keep the likes of Cadden , Miller , Rocky without needing too much of an overhaul done to the squad…

Anyhow Mon the Hibees :flag:

[Ozyhibby]

If we don’t make Europe then it’s pretty expensive to keep them as well when they don’t contribute.

The bench just shows how thin the squad is, hopefully reinforcements incoming.

I think the starting eleven is still good enough to beat probably the worst team in the league.

'Mon Hibs.

Won't be easy. Newell and Youan being out leaves us looking abit light. Need to be clinical

This is kinda where I am. They may be bottom. But their new manager is trying to change their Levein mentality and play a bit. The only thing I would say is they are pretty poor up top.

I don't get the point of Kwon at all. I am loathe to criticise Hibs players, but he's not up to it----what do CEltic see in him?

I’ve got it on St Johnstone tv but would prefer the Hibs commentary!

Hopefully be okay today - bit worried about where the goals are coming from though. We look a bit threadbare - St J are poor though. Get Ellie back for Gers

Yup the Cadden twins will be wing backs with Miller Iredale and Rocky making up the five.

Has to be.

[Coco Bryce]

Dominating the midfield haha. You been on the drink all day.

56% possession to our 44%

Dafty.

[cabbageandribs1875]

that's a red holt lol

[OtleyHibs]

Get him off and get Rockys booking rescinded

[jeffers]

Daft from Rocky, but he must was pretty close to it. Looks a straight red to me.

[JohnM1875]

Rocky booking still stands then?

[Ozyhibby]

56% possession to our 44%

Dafty.

Midfield has been fine.[emoji106]

Stupid booking Rocky

Should be rescinded. He Was right.

[Onceinawhile]

Rocky booked for being a better ref than the referee.

[BroxburnHibee]

He's doing fine.
He seems to be the latest scapegoat amongst certain posters

Not about being a scapegoat. He's been poor in possession.

Good wee run there though

[cabbageandribs1875]

iredale/rocky need to watch incase ref wants to balance things up

[HendoDelivered]

Little hun/jambo rat.

[HH81]

56% possession to our 44%

Dafty.

I don't think your watching the game.

[H18 SFR]

This ref is card happy at the best of times. He will even things up quickly here.

[Coco Bryce]

Stats don't lie.

[Dan Sarf]

Two Kwons don't make a right.


:top marks

[Unseen work]

Would be considering a couple of subs soon

Obita for Iredale - Iredale doesn’t look comfortable and his lack of pace is causing us issues against Sidibeh

Gayle for Campbell - missing a striker. Drop Hoilett back to the 10

[Ozyhibby]

Rocky needs to let VAR do its job though.

Asking for a player to be booked/sent off is supposed to be a booking, even if the request was justified.*




* eg. by Jason Holt being a DJB

[The Modfather]

Should go on and win it now. Good to see the luck beginning to even itself out. Red cards to the opposition in the last two games. VAR goal given at Tynecastle, 2 pens against Ross County etc.

[Allant1981]

56% possession to our 44%

Dafty.

Is that midfield possession, didn't think they had that much of the ball in midfield

[Onceinawhile]

Iredale or rocky are guaranteed a red card.

[bringbackbenny]

Nap for a 2nd yellow here, need to be very careful

[cabbageandribs1875]

pity we will be shooting towards the empty stand in the 2nd half

Players question decisions week in, week out with no yellows being handed out

[babahibs]

I don't think your watching the game.
It's obvious

[Mcbizz1998]

Get O’Hora on at half time. Iredale is going to get himself sent off.

Well at least we shouldn't lose this.

Absolutely should be rescinded.

Ref is just no up to it, to have missed that live ****ing wow. A shocking challenge.

Shinnie being the prime example!

Shankland showed the imaginary card in the derby for Rocky to be booked , And guess who got booked ? Yip Rocky

Shankland should have been off in the derby. Got Rocky booked and tried it again shortly after with Triantis.

[Unseen work]

What a ball from Hoilett

Cleared off the line

[HendoDelivered]

Scott Allan-esque pass from Hoilett

Great minds :greengrin

[OtleyHibs]

Some decent defending from St J so far the only reason we are not 2 up here

[007]

Great minds :greengrin

Or fools seldom 😀

[Mcbizz1998]

Lewis Miller is a complete clown.

[JohnM1875]

Penalty for what??

[Lago]

Miller having a brain fart
And Rocky:confused:

[Broken Gnome]

We're not doing too badly, but there's an overriding jitteriness and lack of control on the ball that really makes us look vulnerable.

And we must have one of the lowest conversion rates in the world from cutbacks.

[Onceinawhile]

Penalty?

Came off his hip then hit his hand. No chance.

[Unseen work]

Penalty

[HH81]

Agree could be a few up. Now they get a pen!

[cabbageandribs1875]

Penalty St Js.

Does Rocky get another yellow.

[SteveHFC]

Miller shouldn’t have his contract renewed.

[Hibees1973]

Dearie me

[cabbageandribs1875]

just what a side down a player needs

[JohnM1875]

Get to ****.

[Hibernian Verse]

Rocky lucky to still be on the park

Never a pen.

These refs man. Get VAR binned so we can get these dafties back down the leagues.

[Unseen work]

Been a really poor half

Need to make big changes at half time

Players need a rocket

Rocky and Iredale will be doing well to see 90 minutes without getting sent off

[badabing67]

We will get back into this. Mon Hibs

[.Sean.]

Good old Rocky though guys eh

He’s not even looking at the ball it’s a pen

This is exactly why Rocky gets stick.

[Callum_62]

Anyone else think that penalty is soft as anything?

Thought he just threw himself down

Did sten from Millers extreme slackness tho

Sent from my Pixel 7 Pro using Tapatalk

Looked soft to me

1 down but with an extra man, can turn this round second half

[Vault Boy]

We’ve been **** this half. Hardly any complaints about being a goal down. Big improvement required.

[grunt]

BBC said that St J failed to convert??
