    Thumbs Up McBride

    What a difference having him back. He allowed Miller to get on with his own game.

    It could be no coincidence that our bad spell happened when he was missing.

    KM is key to this Hibernian team, again he out very good. He gives cover for others and allows them to play. He is my POY so far

    my player of the year too, Miller seems to be happier playing next to him. still can't work out why the Falkirk fans hated him. its no coincidence that performances suffered when he was injured.

    Let me be the first to say that it's no coincidence.

    Scotland's best midfielder in that role.

    True, but I also thought we looked weaker without big nish.

    Mcbride was excellent today and as mentioned above allowed Miller to go further forward. Miller played much more forward today with Mcbride providing cover, something he has not done as he has sat too deep recently.

    Absolutely key in our performance today I thought, he allows Liam Miller to play and I think Miller just feels like he can play with more of freedom having the security of McBride there. He obviously trusts him much more than the unfortunate Rankin. We all saw today what Liam Miller can do, and this is massively down to the inclusion of McBride for me.

    Very very important player for us in more aspects than simply what he does himself on the ball. Top signing by Yogi!

    McBride is a poor man's Brian Kerr.

    Come back Brian - all is forgiven !

    When he has been missing though, we have not replaced him like for like. That surely has had an impact. I woud happily not see another player come into ER this season, if I picked up up the morning paper to read that a three year contract for McBride had been offered and signed.

    The Miller & McBride show was a joy to watch today
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, vodka in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "WOO HOO what a ride!"

    I suppose the whole shape of the team was different today, so it's probably unfair to attribute the performance solely to the return of McBride, but I have to say that Miller and McBride were outstanding in the middle today. Absolutely outstanding.

    McBride was excellent today and it certainly is beginning to look like we are a mutch better team with him in it.

    For a guy who has been out injured for so long he put in a great shift.

    Surely not, Yogi is far too stubborn to change things so we are told?

    Yep. No place for Zemmama in the team tbh. Zouma can be a great player but Our midfield needs more of a bite about it which McBride gives.

    Yes, McBride was the difference today for me. When Kevin is missing we are not the same team pure and simple.

    Also Stokes was superb today as was Miller.

    Great to see Hibs playing like that again

    great performance from us today iv been championing mcbride from the start of the season and although i never like to see a captain demoted,if hoggy were to be relieved of it then i believe kev is the ideal guy to take on the role.looks very much to me like a future hibees skipper.

    Listening from afar it did sound like Kevin dictated the pace of the game today, allowed Liam Miller to do what he does best - create chances for the forwards, and helps protect the defense as well, welcome back KM:notworthy:

    I thought he is just what the midfield has been lacking, but I am worrying about his fitness for the Celtic match. He looked absolutely knackered just before half time. I hope Yogi can get his fi5tness levels up a bit more for that match!

    Having only seen him on the tv v Falkirk and maybe Hearts away and whilst pished at Ibrox it really is strange.

    I amongst heaps of others said why are we signing this boy. Falkirk fans were laughing at us.

    Are you all just taking the piss out of me as it is really difficult to believe!

    Kevin McBride for Scotland, how ridiculous did that sound 6 months ago

    was saying at half time yeasterday to those who cared to listen! that you could see the freedom that miller was getting as he knew that mcbribe was behind him covering up any lose ball.

    it was back to how we were playing before his injury.

    makes me a lot more confident for wednesday against the smelltic pish
