It goes without saying that Scotties long term health is the most important issue and we all respect and wish him well with that.
If however he was able to return to the first team that would improve our team massively, he is the kind of player our midfield is crying out for, there is not many players with his creativity in Scottish football and I would love to see him back doing what he does best.
I just miss Scott Allan playing for Hibs. He is the guy who has done it time and time again for us. Be it a pass, a goal, a moment of brilliance. Tbh. What he done to Ian Black way back when means he is good with me.
Nisbet through the middle, Boyle right, Murphy left.
A bit of everything in there, Scotty can pick them out.
Defence can get back to their form of the start of the season, Marciano in decent form - still just really need to work out the base of the midfield and I think we have a superb team there.
I wasn't fishing mate, it was a genuine concern. I have absolutely no doubts about Scott Allan's ability as a footballer and I'm not saying he has given cause for concern when he's been a Hibs player vis a vis accusations levelled at him with previous clubs regarding his attitude.
But there's no denying that in the few months leading up to his lay off he was well below par, getting subbed and even being left out at times. If all it was, as I said, was a reaction to whatever has caused his lay off and he comes back as the player we know he can be nobody will be happier than me, on his day he's one of the best players in Scotland.
Absolutely. Suits Boyle, Murphy, Gullan, Wright, playing as an inside forward rather than out and out winger or striker.
Suits Allan and Mallan as purely creative midfielders. Also suits the fact we don't have a midfield pairing that can compete 2 v 3.
We have a defensive mid in Gogic that can drop in to play as a 3 when the opposition counter.
The only player it doesn't really suit is Doidge. We had a similar problem in the championship, Matthew Kennedy was a good winger, excellent for that level (as shown at St Johnstone), but we didn't play to his strengths.
I think we'll bring in a quick, physical forward in January, and Doidge will go down south for reasonable, but not huge money. Hopefully we also bring in another box to box midfielder.
Great to see Allan in the gym, hopefully not to long before we see him back in the team again
Agree, total myth that he doesn’t give the effort. People expecting him to cut teams open over and over again for 90 minutes straight are off their heads, he’d be at a big English club if he could produce his great moments constantly all game, the nature of the playmaker role means this isn’t possible. Does plenty of chasing and pressing.
Happy Birthday Scott:thumbsup:
In the studio with David Tanner for the game today, maybe a little announcement about fitness too?
Just me guessing.
Would be so pleased for him if able to resume playing again:thumbsup::thumbsup:
Wtf is going on with the mic levels in the studio?
Doidge looking in the mood today
Back in the squad for saturday. Didnt expect that
