Joe Newell

Played well tonight never hid run his socks off put his body on the line and a great strike for the first goal

One of his one in five good games

Outstanding performance.

Hopefully reward him with a lifetime contract now

People can't help themselves. He wasn't as good in the 2nd but he certainly did not disappear

Can we now close this thread and the ones on Rocky and Youan with all the personal stuff in and start ones about how they perform on an ongoing basis, and stick to facts.

Wouldn't the keyboard assassins have to start attending the actual matches before they could do that? 😆

Been critical of Joe Newell’s performances this season though I think he deserves some praise for his performances in our last two games… think he’s been good . Well done Joe :applause:

Not sure some of them get to leave the house, far less attend games.

Thought Joe was ok yesterday nothing special but 3-0 for the team is the only stat that matters

In the last two games I would say he was outstanding first half versus Aberdeen yesterday Sofa gave him 6.6 the second lowest Hibs player score against his season average of 7

As I said 0-3 cannae argue with that

Bring on the Celtic

Onwards and upwards

His smile at the end of the game spoke volumes.. hibs fans applauding the whole team, meant something to him

noticed that too - as I said on another thread, you can't say the guy doesn't care when he clearly does. I thought he was really good yesterday, both him and trianits worked well together and never stopped closing down all game

A lifetime contract after two decent games is a bit much wouldn’t you say ?

Also telling the guys after third goal they gotta keep a clean sheet.
