    Dylan Mcgeogh

    As the season has progressed, in my opinion as a team we have missed the influence of Dylan far greater than any other player that has been injured.
    The calmness he brings to the team and ability to keep the ball moving, creating space and picking passes is sadly missing at this present time.

    it's difficult to agree or disagree with you as due to frequent injuries his appearances have been few and far between.

    An expensive luxury perhaps.

    A call needs to be made on Dylan at the end of the season IMO. As good as he is, can we afford to keep a player we can only play 1 game out of every 5?

    Why was he not on the bench at the weekend (ditto Shinnie)? Anyone know?

    Shinnie was suspended assuming Dylan injured.

    No, he wasn't even on the bench. Shinnie was missing as he was suspended.

    Can't see McGeouch being fit for Wednesday and he'll be a big miss yet again. Great wee player when he is actually fully fit.

    Shinnie was suspended as I understand.
    Yep 6 league bookings incredible amount for someone with his style of play and position.

    If there is a way to fix his issues, by operations or seeing a specialist, I'd be happy for him to miss the rest of this season and come back in the Summer ready to put it all behind him. He is a phenomenal player.

    If his problems are likely to continue, we should probably let him go at the end of the season. He has hardly been able to contribute this season.

    When fit he's a cracking player but unfortunately he just can't seem to string more than a few games in a row. A real shame and he more than anyone must be very frustrated.

    I really hope he is fit for wednesday but given that he didn't even make the bench on saturday I would very much doubt it.

    If his problems continue then no one else will want him. We can't just say cheerio, he has a contract.

    Dylan will be one of our best paid players. I really hope his injury issues can be sorted, but I fear that isn't likely. Sad for him and Hibs, as he clearly is a fine footballer.

    This. But surely if the answer was an operation or whatever it would already have been done?

    Mcgeogh is a cracking player when fit but he won't fix our main problem which is not scoring enough goals.
    That will only be fixed by bringing in the right players in the summer.

    Anybody know what he's out for now? Is it the same recurring groin injury?

    Yip, I think he's ahead of Shinnie as well which is what he was brought in for. Disastrous signing.

    Has Dylan ever scored for us? I like him a lot, his passing / link up pay and drive. But for an attacking midfield player his goals ratio is terrible -I cat even recall may occasions he is in the box? When your full backs / centre halfs have sored more you have to consider what exactly is his role? We got rid of guys such as liam craig and although many would say Dylan Is a better player - the goals have really dried up... (controversial comparison I know)!

    Sure he scored goal of the season breaking through for Celtic.

    Tim hat on but at least Shinnie gets into those positions, although he may take 5 touches too many, fall over ball or slip he never hides in a game. 😱

    I could probably do that last bit. He's just not good enough for Hibs.

    Have to agree, I was ecstatic when we were linked with and then eventually signed him. The player I remember from Inverness was a decent goalscoring midfielder. Can't say I watched his time down south with a close eye but I'm honestly surprised at how different the Shinnie from ICT and the Shinnie on loan here is. He sometimes doesn't even resemble a footballer. Was surprised to hear he picked up enough bookings for a suspension considering the boy goes missing majority of the time.

    Dylan isnt an attackng midfielder. Id class him as a 6 or deep lying playmaker taking the ball from our defence and starting play.

    James Collins used to get into good positions but couldn't finish to save himself

    Dylan doesn't play high up the pitch though, he's a deep playmaker, link pin between defence and attack, there's times when he's the deepest midfielder on the pitch taking the ball off the centre half's.

    Celtc saw him as a more attacking midfielder. It was Stubbsy who saw him playing deeper.

    Great player and a real miss when he's injured.

    Aye, he scored a penalty away at Livi.

    EDIT: He's actually scored 3 goals for us. Away at Livi in a 4-0 win, away at QotS in a 2-0 win & at home vs Arbroath in a 3-1 win in the Scottish Cup.
