    Holt

    We need to give the big man a bit credit. He turns up for all the big games.

    The guy gives us a lot of what we've been lacking for years.
    Thoroughly enjoyed having a striker to bully the yams

    He must be a nightmare to play against. Very good again tonight.

    Showed he's not to be messed around tonight.

    Another hard-man, gritty, grafting performance from Holt. He has given us that extra dimension we have lacked in recent seasons - a physicality and presence.
    He is one of the first in my team sheet.

    He must have been some player 5 years ago. He leads the line so well and brings others into the game

    Tell you what, for an auld ****, he doesn't half put the effort in. He's certainly not just up here for a holiday.

    In the first half his reading of the header back to the keeper was brilliant.

    Totally...he clearly knows no other way!

    Reminds me a bit of Mixu in terms of his physicality and has made a real difference to the balance of the team.

    To win the war first you must win the battle and Holt sure as hell gives it his all

    He was at Norwich. He was very good and scored plenty.

    He's still a fat bassa and cannae jump, but he is also a warrior, I'll grant him that. Would love him to score a few more goals, think his effort deserves more reward.

    Becoming a cult hero at Hibs. He's the type of player we lacked in our timid years.

    First person on the team sheet every week.

    Love the guy! Another fantastic performance- as said above - stepping up in the big games and seriously playing his part to keep us winning and top of the league.

    Worth another deal for the prem imo.

    Love the big man.

    Added to his qualities in an attacking sense he's often on the right place at the right time when defending corners as well.

    I like the guy and he has been exceptional in every game since the QOS game.
    However, he will be 36 in a months time so IMO not a good idea to give him a new contract to play in the league above given he will be on decent money.

    Has a football brain and experience. Should play the first hour of every game.

    It's at the business end of the season that Hibs will reap the benefits of Holts experience. Big strong lad with a strong mentality. And to win leagues you need guys with the latter.

    No doubt about it that we play better as a team when he's in the first 11. Looking forward to him noising up the Aberdeen defense already

    100% agree with this. I'd take Kenny Miller too, they can share the burden of leading the line over the course of the season.

    The Incredible Holt - a leader & warrior!

    Class from the big man last night again.

    I'd give him a year in the Prem.

    Its not just what he brings on the park which is clear to see, he seems to be an influential character off it and at training ..just thinking about how well he talks in interviews, have heard a few players reference help he gives them at training, he seems to get His and relates to fans ...if we go up I would give him a contract and look to take advantage of all his experience with playing alongside coaching as well ..think his winning and footballing mentality fits well with Lennon's !!! Love big Holty ..he needs a song could see him singing along to it !!!

    Maybe not quite as good last night as he had been previous weeks but still a solid 7 out of 10 last night. The big man has been our stand out player over the last month or so. On current form I can't actually think of a Hibs forward in my lifetime that has been such an effective battering ram.

    Worked hard again but I thought he played ok at best. Nice touch for the goal but gave the ball away often and never created much. Never looked like scoring again. No idea how he picked up a booking as he did nothing wrong and did well to stay calm. I was watching on TV so might not have seen some of the work he was doing off camera to be fair.

    You see a notable difference when he goes off for graham who I don't think is good enough
