As I said earlier - it’s not a great football move for him - but for a few years of his life , it wouldn’t be a bad experience .
On the flip side, we are creating a perception with future buyers of our players that we won’t sell our players for less than we value them.Quote:

Mueller is a right wingerQuote:

The current wide players..
Mueller
Murphy
Mackay
Cadden
Mueller and Mackay hard to comment on but Murphy and Cadden won’t get near the same output Boyle has had.
Looking at the team who submitted the bid for Boyle - seems Boyle could be their record transfer fee paid - seems they have put a few million pound deals over the tears but Boyle could be the most.
I 100% believe it. He is already on life changing money. He signed a contract and Hibs can hold him to it if they like. We must ensure the absolute best deal for Hibernian, not Martin Boyle.Quote:

Maybe not a decision but it will more than likely be discussed Bingo!Quote:

Hopefully we’re not banking just on youth and are able to get a couple more experienced players in.
I suppose you could argue that we never needed huge improvements but just more depth.
It will be an interesting couple of months, I just hope we’re not hedging all out bets in 20 year olds being brilliant for us. They’ll all take time to adapt and will undoubtedly be inconsistent.
We need to be ready for that.
I would doubt anyone who has to this point in their career, counted Hibs as the biggest club they have played for, would consider themselves rich (whatever that can be defined as).Quote:

Don’t want to sound negative but this boy on loan doesn’t excite me. Hope I’m wrong but I’m not expecting much 22 year old and hardly kicked a ball got a feeling he could be a Nathan wood type!
He’s not on life changing money though. Even if he was on 10k a week for the next 3 years (which he isn’t), that’s 1.5m minus tax and NI and he’s be lucky to be earning 2-250k a year for that period. That’s not money you could survive on for life with a young family and you’d hope another 50 years left to live.Quote:

RG has said on numerous occasions that we wouldn’t stand in the way of a player moving for extra cash so long as the deal was right for us too.
No reason to doubt him. We’ll get the money we want, as will Boyle. Everyone’s a winner.
Why not give him a chance?Quote:
