We need options and cover.
Can you fashion a decent midfield that includes more than one of Allan, Mallan, Newell or Hallberg though?
We might want to play up to 4 central midfielders depending on how Ross wants to play, then we’ll have injuries and suspensions to take into consideration.
2 good midfielders and I honestly think we’ve got as strong a squad as we’ve had for a while.

We have issues if Gogic is out, we don’t have any natural replacement for that role. We also need someone better and more consistent than Newell. He’s had his moments but isn’t showing his quality on a regular basis.

Not a Hibs rumour but Bryson has left Aberdeen
We can confirm this evening that Craig Bryson has left the club.
Everyone involved with AFC wishes Craig all the very best in his future career.

Mallan returning from injury, we shall see.
Hallberg (not convinced yet)
Allan is great but I feel he needs the confidence of a managers backing.
Worried that Jack doesn’t see him as an integral part of the midfield.
Clearly we need a dynamic player (Mibbe two) to make this a more effective midfield. Energy and a Sauzee type to control the tempo and take control. Easy!!!

I'm also aware that we have taken the most points out of anyone apart from the old firm since Jack took over.
The only problem I have with that is the the anyone bar the old firm part, the reason being is there's a baw hair between the rest of us on their day's and the standard is poor.

The fact that we're short of one or two midfielders doesn't mean that Marciano, Porteous, Boyle, Gogic, Nisbet aren't players who would grace most Hibs teams. McGinn, Hanlon, Doig, Allan, Mallan, Newell, Stevenson and several others are perfectly acceptable players who will do a very good job for us when called upon, many of whom will manage it every week as a starter.
An argument might be made for shipping out a midfielder to bring in someone with a different skill set to complement the rest of the players a bit better but that wouldn't be because any of the midfielders "aren't good enough", just that times are tight and we need to use our budget accordingly.
There is plenty of quality in the squad, a number of players who can be a joy to watch, and they've done well to get the points they have so far.
No real need for hyperbole.
But we do need a midfielder or two.

I wish we were a side who look like they deserve to be top of the league and even if that did carry a wee bit of luck but we ain't

Not losing a goal is a mixture of everything and that includes luck but I put it down to hard work and a team effort. I’ll see it as a big positive. You cannot take that away from the team and the back 5 as they were heavily criticised for losing goals easily.
It’s so easy to point out the negatives but your first sentence is FACT regardless of luck or not.
See it as a positive rather than a negative or looking for an excuse when ones not there. Whether you like it or not NO goals from open play

I cannot work out if you are being serious or trolling. We’ve not played great yet we are second. I’ll take that. Room for plenty of improvement. Injuries to Nisbet and Gogics false positive haven’t helped.
Try not to dwell too much on the negatives and look forward to use getting better and kicking on

The midfield needs to improve, but in doing so we don't need to chuck the baby out with the bathwater because this team has a lot in the positive column that we'd have been delighted to have in weaker teams of the past.
