    22 goals in 10 seasons for an attacking midfielder is just horrific.

    That's all I really know. Just the stats but unless he. An cover at left back :)

    Been hearing Stubbs wants a look at him. Anyone else heard the same?

    Do we really need another midfielder?

    Tony Mowbry said he needed to work on his fitness and if he had kept him it would of been as impact player off the bench ,but hinted he doesn't track back and tackle hard win headers etc ,so a luxury ,as he wants to nutmeg players flick the ball up and score great goals .if he isn't getting picked up by anyone then who knows Stubbs may feel he could get the best out him and give him a short term contract to see what he can do ,but tend to think if we are giving Feruz and Anier oppertunities then would be hard to see us brining in another player Bit you never know he might relish playing for the Club he supports and get a new lease of life

    Is he a winger? We could do with another one.

    Rumoured to be going back th St Johnstone, however, would welcome him to us in a heartbeat, good, steady player imo. Hope it happens.

    Nah,don't really need him imo.

  14. #13
    I feel like he's one of these players that will come to Hibs at some point. At 28 though I hope it's sooner rather than later. But right now for this season, we don't particularly need another midfielder.

  15. #14
    Not needed at this point.

    We should always be looking at players. Even when we think we have enough. If anyone will improve us we should always consider.

    From what I remember he impressed me. I haven't followed his career so not going to pretend I know him inside out but he's certainly worth a look.

    This.

    We may be a bit heavy in midfield but we should never shy from a player who would improve us. Nothing wrong with having a look imo.

    Always keep looking at players. It's funny how people who say they aren't happy then say it's not what we need?

    Say what you want about Danny but his ability speaks for it's self. Seen him score a few worldies at easter road against us as well which was hard to take. Here's a wee video of what he can do when fit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sv_tqV8_jkY

    Really? He only scored 12 goals for DU and 4 for St Johnstone in 5 years, I can't remember any world lies at ER.

    Not saying he does it frequently or anything like that but Danny defo scored one "worldie" against us for United. He celebrated like crazy too - irked me only coz as a Hibs fan I'd find it horrendous just playing against us never mind scoring against and beating us.

    I have only ever seen Danny score once against us , it was a midweek game and he he scored an excellent free-kick early in the game, United horsed us 4-2 to consolidate their position above us. A few worldies is miles off and DS would not improve us.

    Can he play left wingback?

    May well have been that game actually although I seem to remember a strike where he was allowed to advance forward before smashing one in the top bag. Memory may just be playing tricks.

    FWIW I don't think he'd improve us either.

    I'm sure he had plenty of assists in helping create goals!! As much as I would love to have seen Danny Swanson play for hibs I think we have a number of midfielders? I'm sure I heard St Johnstone were interested?

    I'd take him for sure, purely on the basis we are crying out for a winger. And on his game he's a bloody good one at that!

    Watch that video after about 2 minutes you'll see a belter curled into the top corner.

    I don't think we would use Swanson any differently to the way Mowbray described for Coventry (ie. impact sub). He doesn't sound fit, is 28 and has never really knuckled down and achieved for all his ability.

    I'm pretty happy with our squad as is, there's a couple of areas we could improve on but generally we look pretty decent. Not sure a move to us for Swanson would suit either party. Sounds like he's looking for first team football and I'm not sure we'd be offering that.

    Be a very good addition if we are interested
