Surprised Naismith is getting in a few peoples team, he has been honking! Bar 2 assists he's been dreadful constantly letting players drive at him backing off constantly allowing players in our box far to easily.

Rocky.

James. Jackson. Porto. Stevenson.


Halberg.


Boyle. Allan. Newell.


Doidge. Kamberi.

Allan
Doidge Kamberi


For those who want Marciano to play,
Ask yourself why Bogdan has arrived until January. The smart money is on Hibs have to pay big bucks to Ashdod if he plays another game and Hibs don't want to pay it as Rocky doesn't want to sign a new contract. Almost certain to go in January and if he does Bogdan gets a contract.

For those that don't want Hanlon to play,
Daz is great at tackling & heading but is a hoofer, Porteous is a little better with the ball at his feet but not great hence Hanlon required for playing ball out of defence to midfielders etc.
Daz would get the best out of the guys either side of him.

If there was a fee due after another appearance that we didn’t want to pay, then Rocky wouldn’t be on the bench. What happens if Maxwell gets a red card, or injured? We stick Boyle in goals?

If you’re in the match day squad you’re available to play.

I think we'll win 3-1. Aberdeen s comeback against the huns will have taken it out them

Thats a very good point. Something thats being overlooked. We signed Bogdan 3 games ago, he hasnt even made the bench...

[ekhibee]

For me the only good thing about Aberdeen is Cosgrove, the rest of them are nothing special at all IMO. I don't see any reason why we can't beat them, because at the back they're very ordinary. For me McKenna is totally overrated, Considine's past it and Logan's erratic. Best means of defence is attack, we should really go for it.

I'm pretty sure we've been saying this about Aberdeen, give and take, for about three years. Yet they still always beat us.

That is a good point that I had forgotten about.
If he is on the bench he would have played if Maxwell came off injured.
Unlikely but a possibility and perhaps a risk Hibs had to run.
Bogdan payed for the young team this week so probably ready to take his place on the bench or possibly in the team.
Would be a little unfair to lob him into such a big game on Saturday.

......................Bogdan.................

Naismith....Jackson.....Porteous....Stevenson....

...............Slivka........Hallberg.......

Kamberi...........Allan..............Boyle......

.....................Doidge.........

They key for me is stopping the amount of chances Cosgrove gets. Shielding the defence with the two sitters takes away the ball to feet or is chest whilst with Boyle and Kamberi high and wide it stops the full backs getting time to lump it in our box.

Boyle on the left as Iv yet to see him get the better of Considine, use his pace and directness against Logan who is a certainty for a mistake now a days. Kamberi is more physical and skilful to get the better of Considine imo.

The front 4 shouldn’t be static or rigid in the final third though which I think is half of our problem lately. They should all be drifting in, interchanging and making it really hard for the opposition to pick them up.

It will be a battle and we will have to be very wary of set pieces as half their tram are over 6ft - Taylor, Considine, McKenna, Ferguson, Cosgrove, Vyner and Leigh

[B.H.F.C]

Expect a couple of changes after Wednesday. I don’t think we’ll play the diamond either.

Boyle shouldn’t play on the left and I don’t know why you’d put Naismith there either.

As Rocky has played 80 games for us it seems an unusual cut off point , but suspect it could be 100 and we have just been playing it careful

21 games he played on loan. 59 apps since we signed him on the current permanent contract he is on now.

4 assists & a goal in 5 games up until Ross Co...from right back.

Hes offered more going forward than Stevenson has in 3 seasons in 5 games. Hes not done alot wrong at the back either.

[Hibby Kay-Yay]

The tight diamond is causing us problems as it exposes us on the wings, giving the opposition too much time and space to deliver crosses into our box. A change of formation for me rather than the same formation with different people.
