Logan- coincidence or not

[Unseen work]

Was wondering what people's opinions are on the fact that in the games he has started we haven't conceeded?

Is it a coincidence or is it down to him being more vocal and organising the players better nd putting in a good performance?

[Thecat23]

He's very good at making sure the players know if there is anyone running the channels and to get in them. For me a keeper who's vocal can only be a good thing.

[Baldy Foghorn]

Organises and commands area well.

Only had 1 real save to make against Dumbarton and a couple of crosses to deal with yesterday though. 3 clean sheets not to be sniffed at though

[Big_Franck]

He's had virtually nothing to do in the Dumbarton and QOS games so it's hard to judge him to be honest. He'll obviously not play like he did in the semi every week, if he was capable of that he'd not be at Hibs. Time will tell if he's better than Oxley but what I do like about him is that he shows a bit of urgency when he collects the ball and is always looking to start a counter attack. Something Oxley very, very rarely does.

[HibsNutter]

Organises the defence well, which has helped him in having little to do. But what he has had to do in terms of shot-stopping, he's done very well. Our number one at this point for sure.

lets not over think it. he didn't have a save to make against QoS.

I agree regarding the QOS game. He never really had anything at all to do. Is still play him in the remaining games and I like Ox but feel Logan is a better keeper.

Yeah most of us could have played in goal yesterday.

[Franck Stanton]

Think the back 4 have more confidence with Logan behind them than Oxley. Logan is far more vocal and appears to know what he is doing/shouting. Think back to when Oxley was starting every week, we had to score two goals just to make up for Oxleys blunder. Logan is by far the better keeper.

[Pretty Boy]

He's done everything asked of him in his 2 games.

If Oxley has been dropped as opposed to rested I do find the timing a bit strange considering he played well in the game after the Rangers game (and in that game barring the mistake tbh).

Big call for Stubbs this week.

[hfcnic]

Really hope it is not a coincidence, but you can see the confidence in the defense when he is in goals.

I am in no way an Oxley hater but I do want things to work out with Conrad, as a team we need to improve all the time and sometimes that means changing players etc.

That's not exactly true though is it. Oxley wasn't making blunders every week. Our strikers though weren't taking the chances put to them. Ox for the first half of the season was actually playing very well.

[CallumLaidlaw]

Someone mentioned before the Dumbarton game that Oxley was going to get rested for the last two games but would be back in for the playoffs. Just have to see if it was correct

Peter schmeichal once said you can tell a good keeper by how few saves they have to make. The best keepers organise their defences, they are listened to by their defenders, they claim the crosses and get their angles right.

I don't know if that has been the case with Logan but he certainly seems a lot more commanding than Oxley, there was one half chance in particular that qots made an arse of that I can think of, Logan came out his goal absolutely screaming at the Hibs player that made a mistake.

I also like his urgency, I think that sets the tone for the whole team.

[hibsdaft]

Wednesday will be the real test. A clean sheet would be a great result.

[O'Rourke3]

I think with Conrad in yesterday the QOS players didn't consider shooting from distance as he's an unknown quantity.

I don't think Lyle would have hesitated to have a go against Mark with that half chance on the edge of the box. Interestingly Paul Mitchell described that period as Hibs are rocking under the QOS pressure....

So the no shots on goal could still be down to his presence in the team.

I'm fully expecting Oxley to be back for the play offs, just hope the fans support him whether we agree with the decision or not as there's nothing worse than a nervous keeper!

I really hope not, we need clean sheets to progress.

You do realise Oxley has kept many clean sheets this season, including in his last game at Morton where he was outstanding? I'm not worried in the slightest whichever goalkeeper plays.

[Penicuik Hibee]

Conrad reminds me of Budgie. Loves the way he is always vocal and organising his defence. In reality he has only had one good game as the last 2 he has had nothing to do. But so far he has passed every test that has come his way. Ox seems like a good guy, but his confidence is low and he has made too many mistakes. Conrads experience could well be required in the play offs

That's the way I see it. In good teams, even the decent players aren't always safe - if a better option crops up it's only pragmatic to take it.

[Nicho87]

No goals conceaded in 300 minutes. Its a no brainer for me.

[Scouse Hibee]

Not sure myself, pretty slow and cumbersome with the ball at his feet, has had one good game with a few decent saves,jury is still out for me.

[biotech]

The team has been short of confidence lately. Having an experienced vocal leadership figure, like Logan, can only benefit the team. He should keep the Jersey.

I actually thought his kicking was excellent yesterday. And he likes to try and release the ball early too

[Brooster]

Like night and day. Would be bonkers to drop Logan.

[leggeto]

I like him,I'm not bothered about and keeper who makes unbelievable saves each game,just one that makes no mistakes,there was a moment where the ball went really high against qots and needed a catch and I wasn't too nervous about him catching it,,which he did

[iwasthere1972]

Played well against Dundee United and got us to the final. Maybe beginners luck as Dumbarton and Queen of the South were both hopeless and between them hardly had a shot on target. Time will tell of course but far too early to compare him with Oxley. He does, for some reason, remind me of Willie Wilson.

a few decent saves? about 4 one on ones and 2 penaltys, imho best performance from a hibs keeper in that important game for decades....HULK LOGAN deserves his chance... and i think hes grabbed it with both hands, ide be surprised to see oxley back in goal this season... but if he is he,ll get my full suport GGTTH..

Yes a few decent saves that I would expect a keeper to make.The penalty saves were decent too.
