Happy enough to keep Marciano, Newall not so much.

Both important players for us. Hopefully get them both signed up on new deals quickly.

Absolute nonsense OP about Newall. He’s been brilliant 80% of this season and you clearly know nothing about football.

Would definitely want Marciano to sign though.

Joe has been excellent this year and would love him to stay, will only get better imo.

The rise and rise of Joe Newell seems to have taken a dip the last couple of games but def would want him on board esp with Allan seemingly out long term.

Newell has been one of the top players this season and I think he is only just finding his stride in Scottish football... we would be insane not to secure him for longer...!

I’d be happy enough with Newell signing a new deal but I think he’s far from irreplaceable. He’s been good this season but also still has question marks for me in the bigger games. Taken off twice around the hour mark against Aberdeen and yet to see him take a game that isn’t going our way by the scruff of the neck. A third player of real quality and drive in the midfield would definitely help him but descriptions of him being good when things are going well and less so when they aren’t is a fair summary for me.

I liked Newell before this season so hope he signs. I wouldn't have bothered about Rocky at the end of last season but he has changed my mind this year. Hope we get both for another year or two. The constant rebuilding is one of the reasons we struggle to be consistent.

Wouldn't have been too fussed about Rocky last season but would like him to stay now.
Also, not sure what Newall has to do to win some folk over- seems that being very good most weeks isn't enough. There's a strange tone to some of the criticism he gets- all this "not as good as he thinks he is" nonsense. Remember him being told to get 'back to Love Island' early on as well... all smacks of a bit of jealousy to be honest!

Newall is good with the ball at his feet but is a dream to play against. Doesn’t work hard enough to stop the other team playing.
Our midfield was nowhere near good enough against Hearts and Aberdeen this year so I’m not really interested in keeping the same players.

I think he’s been good at times. Just not ‘very good’ most weeks.Last edited by B.H.F.C; 20-11-2020 at 06:27 PM.

Suppose you needed a new target when Whittaker left.

Newell, ffs. Decent enough, but not really good enough as a regular pick in the engine room of the team, if we aspire to more.
Capable of a good game, particularly against the weaker sides. Not really up for the job against the stronger teams.
I’ve seen far worse, but I won’t be troubled if he doesn’t sign up.
Rocky, despite flaws, is probably the best keeper at Hibs since Leighton. Him resigning would be very good news.

Rocky would be harder to replace than Newell. The number of bad goalkeepers we have had over the years and the over the top lauding of decent ones simply for not being bad proves how rare a genuinely good one like Rocky is.
I'd be more than happy to see both extend their stays.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

Suspect one of two things.
Either they're both close enough to signing that Hibs have mentioned it, or they're nowhere near and Hibs are trying to convince us they're doing all they can.
Would like to keep both, but rocky definitely the priority.

Does that regularly - has averaged more tackles per game than Gogic.
In any objective rundown of players of the season to date, Newell is right up there in top 2/3 outwith the OF players

As I’ve said previous, I don’t think he’s hopeless or anything like that. Equally just don’t think he’s one of the top two or three performers from ten teams in the league.

I think he’s a player capable of great things rather than a great player if that makes sense.
Interesting how popular he is now, it wasn’t long ago everybody was crying out for a new midfielder and at the time he was the obvious player to be replaced.
I’d be happy if he stayed but he’s replaceable if he does leave imo.

For midfielders it’s about key passes per game, passes forward, recovering the ball. In all those metrics Newell is right up there along with likes of Ryan Hedges as the most effective midfielders this year outside the OF.

From what I’ve watched I’ve seen some good (Livi, Killie, StMirren, Hamilton and Rangers come to mind) and some not so good (Celtic, Sheep x2, Motherwell come to mind). All in all, I think he’s somewhere in between being brilliant and poor.
