I thought all 3 today made a huge impact when they came on and thought they deserved a collective thread. I wonder what others thoughts are that I've included Feruz in the bracket. I thought he personally showed some really nice touches and good direct running with the ball. Almost set up a goal aswel a few times with some nice passing.
Anier brings something completely different to the strike force. Big, hard, pace, and looks to be a good team player.
Dom? Well, Dom just does what Dom does best......GOALS!

Feruz looked better today. Got involved.

I think anier is a player, we could give him a start next week. Something different that the huns have not dealt with, he was excellent when he came on.

I thought all 3 did well. No idea why Dom was dropped as we missed him today.

Going to be almost impossible for Stubbs to pick a team next week I think haha, too many players deserving of a place

Anier in for boyle? Keatings up top, hes no good in behind the front men. Cummings position is in danger, he didn't do much today.

Got to agree the 3 did well. It's good having a squad with depth in it. Feruz look interested today and wanted on the ball. Anier looked good, strong, decent touch and a willing runner and Dom is just great and what a finish. Right place at right time

Thing is he'll only want to play just 2 strikers away at Ibrox so that just makes things a lot more difficult

The difference between last season and this season, having players who can come off the bench and make a difference if things aren't going our way. Brilliant celebrations when the goal went in. The Huns are rattled now.

I'd rather go for it and if we lose, lose by two or three rather than defend for 90 and lose one in the last minute. Realistically a draw is not a good result, as things stay as they are. We need to win and put the pressure on them even more so.

Lets be honest his first touch was/is brutal and boyle done even less than cummings. We won though, thats what matters

I thought Stubbs made a mistake playing Cummings and Boyle.They are not a pairing-in some ways too similar get over excited.Jason usually takes his chances Boyle doesn't usually.Boyle doesn't seem to realise that all he has to do is knock the ball past and go-instead he overelaborates.Even allowing for Queens tiring the subs opened them up time after time with simple one twos and were a big improvement.

Malongas touch is superb. Would have him on from the start and use Boyle as the impact player, admittedly Dom fulfilled that role well today but the guy deserves to be starting.

Hope Dom's goal starts him off on a goals-frenzy !!. I just love the guy, aye, ok his 'body language' needs some work but when he has that ball at his feet? NO-ONE takes it off him !!

Malonga would be the first name on my team sheet.
Oxley follows him, McGinn behind that and then McGeoch if he's fit.
Gray and Stevenson you would have to consider first picks in their positions but every other place is up for grabs.
I don't mean this in a bad way in that they were all honking and should be dropped - they've all shown a great deal during our good run, a good few haven't been as good as they can be the past few weeks but could make a strong case for selection.
McGregor deserves a mention for forcing his way in and making himself a first-pick. Hanlon has played some superb games for us this season it's mad that he's been displaced into the midfield and then not picked today.
Stubbs has a good problem.Last edited by Smartie; 19-12-2015 at 06:47 PM.

Subs played their part in the win, no doubt about it.
Anier caused them all sorts of problems, and Malonga...well, he was class.Follow the Hibs podcast, Longbangers, on Twitter (@longbangers)

Oh, and good on you for pointing our the contribution Feruz made.
I thought his positive running with the ball forced them back and helped us considerably.
He's struggled to impose himself in his time with us so far and it's been easy to make excuses for it being difficult to impose himself on a game when he only gets 5-10 minutes at the end of a game.
He did very well indeed today, as did the other 2 subs.

Shame if Anier goes back to DU in January.
Definitely unsettled them when he came on and would be interesting to see him get a full 90 minutes.

In Stubbs we trust!!!
I think Stubbs was resting Malonga for the The Rangers game. I'd be very surprised if he doesn't start against the The Rangers.

Malonga has to start at Ibrox because he's the best we have at holding play up and linking with others and Cummings is the best finisher we have and absolutely loves a goal against the Gers.
Keatings is an out-and-out forward so feel a bit sorry for him getting put into other positions. We can get away with it against lesser teams but don't think Stubbs can go with three up top.
We could really do with McGeouch being fit for next Monday. What's the latest with him and Bartley?
Anier looks a good option, pity he's away after the 28th...

Malonga's best position had seemed to be behind the front two but seeing Feruz ferreting away behind Malonga and Anier looks an even better bet.
