Team vs Rankgers

[basehibby]

Couldn't see an equivalent thread - please merge if I missed it:

Smith

O'Hora Rocky Iredale

C Cadden Triantis Newell N Cadden

Campbell
Boyle Youan




I'm assuming, as indicated by Gray, that Newell and Youan will be available again after shaking off their knocks

NB - Hot Dang! How is it I can never get my team to be all nicely spaced out like other posters - spent ages putting in wee spaces and now it just looks all crap and bunched up :grr::boo hoo::dunno:

[B.H.F.C]

I think O’Hora will come in for Miller.

From what Gray said, I’m more confident Youan will be available than Newell.

Looks bang on to me if the players are fit

[Donegal Hibby]

I think it will be …

……………………………. Smith ……………………….………

………………..Miller … Rocky …Iredale………….……..

.. C.Cadden.. Triantis ..* Newell *.. N.Cadden..

……………………….…… Campbell…………………………….

…………………………Boyle …. *Youan*………………….

** hoping both are fit for this , particularly Newell as our options are really limited without him , thought Kwon has been poor and think with Levitt you only see moments now and again from him in games which isn’t enough in this one so if Newell is out I’d probably go with NMW though he seems to be well out of the picture now .

I’m the opposite think Newell has more chance and Youan more likely played his last game

[Unseen work]

Not good news

Newell, Myk and Youan still out

Gayle in for Hoilett

[BoomtownHibees]

Gayle in for Hoilett the only change

[we are hibs]

Really not sure about Kwon starting again. He was really poor the other day

Is this the match day thread? Askin for a pal

We'll miss Newell again. Big loss.

[chasitup]

Kwon really needs to up his game today.

He can’t be any worse than his Celtic midfield teams mates, against Rangers last Thursday

[Hibees1973]

Not enough attacking threat to concern the Hun.

[Heisenberg]

Gray sounded quite positive on Youan being back did he not? Big miss given our options when Gayle inevitably needs taken off. Kwon starting again is a bit baffling considering how bad he’s been

[jeffers]

That bench. I wonder when we plan on actually signing someone this window.

[CentreLine]

If you’re still in the dark what hope is there 😖

[Silky]

The bench is grim. Shows how little we have. Given the state of the bench, I'd have expected Hoilett to start ahead of Gayle as he's been a threat when he's came on.

[Iain G]

No we are not planning on signing anyone 😳

[Sioux]

We could be 2-0 down by then.

[IanM]

Kwon needs to learn the Newall role over night.. a defence that doesn’t leak many goals and an attacking threat from Boyle, Cadden and in form Gayle

Middle of the park is where this game will be won or lost

[Greenio]

What can he do but start Kwon (who Ive seen play really well)

I think this team can pull something off but we need movement through the middle of the park in our arsenal or we are screwed!

[flash]

Pretty staggering we can have 7 players out and Obita ain't on the team.

[SteveHFC]

A striker should be the first one signed.

It will probably not matter what team we start with the Huns will get their inevitable penalty and a Hibs sending off. Keepin my expectations today to a free hit and anything from the game is a bonus with Beaton in charge.

[EGL2000]

Think our midfield will really struggle today without newall

[K-Zazu]

That bench is minging.

[HoboHarry]

That bench is minging.

Who would you have on the bench instead?

[Tambo]

Mon the Hibs, let's battle our way to a good result and keep the unbeaten run going.

[K-Zazu]

Who would you have on the bench instead?

I know I’m not saying we should have different players on it mate. My point is it’s minging that’s it, I know we have lots of injuries.

[easty]

Who would you have on the bench instead?

Think it was more an observation than a criticism of Gray.

[Since90+2]

Looking at that team and bench we'll do well to get anything out the game I think.

[Centre Hawf]

I think when you look at the bench you see how limited we are considering there's about 5 names on it that you could realistically see leave this window. NMW, McKirdy, Amos all can't buy minutes. Bursik now looks like he's been demoted to full time number 2. Levitt is likely to see some minutes out of necessity but I'm not convinced at all Gray fancies him anyway.

[MacGruber]

Same team as last week. Gray got the team wrong for St Johnstone away and too late with the subs and it cost us.

Can't see this team offering much today, virtually no threat up front and patchwork at the back. To be honest it probably wouldn't matter, anything off of Rangers is a bonus so just hoping to get players back soon. Really feeling the loss of Newell in the middle and Ellie up top given Myko still out.

Really need January reinforcements

Hopefully you're wrong, 'mon the cabbage, get intae the bigots.

[MacGruber]

Yeah, hope so too.

[AdidasHibernian]

Think Gayle is the right change today but Kwon still playing in the middle is honking.

[greenlex]

I. Think the end game should be keeping it tight with an eye on trying to nick something. Goal difference might be crucial so the last thing we need is a doing.

edit- ****s. Sake.

Don’t really know what Gray could/can do about it at the minute , haven’t really got players on the bench that can really impact a game …

Anyhow Mon the Hibs:flag:

I agree DH. I don't think there's too much we can do other than rotate the likes of Gayle in depending on how he's feeling.

[Smartie]

Pretty staggering we can have 7 players out and Obita ain't on the team.

We’ve got 99 problems but LB / LWB ain’t one.

[Centre Hawf]

We’ve got 99 problems but LB / LWB ain’t one.

That and I think at the moment he's a good option off the bench to come in at LCB or LWB depending on fatigue/injuries.

Read the team wrong, Gayle starts so we do have a threat. Makes last week more baffling if he is fit to start now but not fit enough for 45 on Thurs.

Anyway, mon the Hibs

You're right, not much else for it today and think it's the right team with what's available today. Thurs was a different story but think I've laboured that point long enough. Gray has us on a fantastic run, into these hoardes

[Smartie]

Agreed, sadly.

We need to be much closer to full strength to make a decent game of this. Shame, because an extra player or two and I think we could give them a proper fright today.

It’s tempting to criticise Hibs but I think every club in the country would struggle with the number of key players we’ve got out. The bench is weak but you can only prepare for this sort of situation so much.

[Stuart93]

Midfield our weakness again

[greenlex]

How much time and space do we want to give him. :confused::rolleyes:
