    The possession stats may say it was even, but until the 70th minute the majority of the game was played in Killi's half. You can control the possession without actually having possession.

    should we simply look at the result then? can’t we analyse the different periods of the game?

    This was responding to Ferguson in Sportsound saying we played relatively well for an hour a I tend to agree . He also said without a real cutting edge - something I suspect we all agree on
    Of course we can analyse parts of the game I am saying we have a thread now based on us playing well for 45 mins. It is incredibly disappointing for me we are at this stage of proceedings.

    Some people who weren’t at the game will be surprised by Fergusons view ...That is why it has turned into a thread I suspect ....take your overall point though - it’s not a reason for sunshine on leith to be played ...

    I wasn't at the game but reading some posts on here afterwards it sounded like we were abysmal. Total contrast to what Ferguson was saying. Just surprised me a bit. Small chink of light if nothing else.

    I felt Ferguson was spot on ...if we had got the first goal, I suspect we would have gone on and won the game ..

    there was little wrong with our first half performance...
    A "neutral" mate of mine came to Fenlon's last game against Hearts.

    We started that game very well, didn't play all that badly throughout and were sucker punched by a cracking Ryan Stevenson strike.

    He was loving our play during the first half and said to me "I thought you said your lot were *****?"

    Worryingly, a feature of our worst teams has been starting games fine but not scoring when on top, then going on to lose.

    When Broadfoot left Kilmarnock recently he was moaning like **** that the Italian manager worked day after day on the team shape instead of having them working hard on their fitness.
    Looking at Saturdays game is that now paying off i.e. although Kilmarnock didn't have much of the ball we couldn't lay a glove on them then when we made a mistake they sprung the trap and scored their 2nd goal. It was a bit like when you used to watch Scottish teams playing in Europe. Lots of the ball but inevitably put to the sword in the end by wily opponents.

    We didn’t create any chances but apart from that it was great I suppose 👀
    Mallan free kick, Vela volley, Horgan shot tipped over the bar, Flo fluffed a chance early on. Apart from that nothing.

    I would class that as a chance created, Vela was unlucky and Horgan shot was an easy save imo. Anyway we didn't do anywhere near enough on the day. A bad habit of ours unfortunately.

    It looks to me like the big difference between this year and last is that Stevie Mallan has not produced that early run of spectacular goals we saw last season. It was his goals that mattered this time last year while our preferred option strikers largely failed to deliver. Whether keepers are wiser to him or not we couldn’t half use a few of his crackers right now.

    A free kick from outside the box and that Horgan shot are not chances. Vela’s was a decent chance to be fair but came from sloppy defending as much as anything else.

    I don’t have the stats but if you looked at the xG (expected goals) for the game I’m pretty certain Hibs would be less than 1. Meaning we did not create any good chances.

    We simply do not have any pattern of play currently. We’re not very good at set pieces either. It’s not good.

    Maybe we will play well for 60 mins, get some corners. Exciting times.

    This is pretty much spot on IMO

    He's being played too deep to have any influence on the attacking 3rd, this us what happens when you don't bring in an energetic defensive midfielder and try to shoehorn another player in, total imbalance.
