    Mackie

    Certainly earned himself a run in the team now. Thought he was solid today.

    Agreed he had a good game today, he’s strong and athletic, he could do with playing the easy ball at times but that will come with experience.

    United we stand here....

    Yip, he grew in confidence after the first 10mins or so. A very satisfactory performance against a difficult opponent.

    There’s not been many (any?) squad players who have seized their chance , but Mackie did today. Will have the shirt on Tuesday I’m sure ....

    He deserves to keep his place

    Delighted for Sean played very well today

    Another one who is still fairly young. Won’t be on top of his game ever week, but needs to have a run in the side to build confidence. He’s more than good enough to play left back week in week out.

    Good game today and looks to have bulked up without losing any pace. Gives the manager another good option.

    Always had the strength and power but his decision making was poor last season.
    Even stronger now but his decision making has improved greatly which is down to coaching and maturity.
    Sadly it could signal the end for Lewis at the end of the season. Contract at an end and two young guys progressing well in his position.

    Unless you are meaning games with Dundee I don't know how you can say that.

    He played just over a half against St.Mirren when he came on as a sub and for an hour before being sent off at Ibrox.

    Harsh to say he was poor last season with decision making when he barely played 100 minutes

    I always thought he had the physicality and athleticism but two seasons ago for Hibs and last season for Hibs and Dundee I thought he was often caught out of position and generally didn't seem to make the right decision at the right time.
    But after a bad injury at Dundee and his recovery under the Jack Ross led Hibs he has come back stronger and seems far more aware and accomplished.
    I am genuinely excited about his prospects. I reckon he can finally be the player that takes over from Stevenson.

    Dundee wasn't a good move for him.

    Didn't drive, living in digs and picked up an injury.

    Back home, injury behind him and getting match time. Now is the time for him to drive on.

    The first couple of times I saw him I thought he would be a great young player, fast and strong, and a good crosser of the ball too but I also think he might have been brought in too early and his subsequent performances weren't so good and then he got quite a bad injury. I was impressed with him against Frimpong, and I'm sure there's a really good player in there, if he develops other aspects of his game he could be a real asset.

    He deserves a run at left back to build on this. Doig is still young and has looked excellent but also his inexperience has shown at times but that will come. We've said before about Stevensons replacement maybe being Doig but perhaps in the immediate its Mackie?

    Either way the two will have to work hard to show they're the two that can do something many have failed to do, force a manager to drop a fit Stevenson.

    I think he was guilty of taking his foot off the gas a bit last season after making his breakthrough the season before. This time round he appears to have given himself a foot up the erchie and now that he's got a chance with his fellow academy grad Doig fading a wee bit he's grabbed it with both hands.

    So well done Sean - and Josh! - look forward to some real competition for that left back slot going forward.

    He came on against Dundee & looked strong, athletic & aggressive. He deserved his chance today & I'm really glad that he played well. He has previously had great assists against both of the uglies but as usual was written off by too many on here. I wish him every success,

    The shirt is his to lose

    Solid game today, terrific engine. Just needs to sort out his positional sense as he develops but very promising, especially having been out so long. Well played Sean

    He stuck to it but to me gave the ball away too often and missed the chance to win the game at the end.Looks a much better player than he was.

    What a performance from Mackie today! I know Murphy got MOTM for a goal and assist. Makes sense. But Mackie had to be next in line. Has to get a run in the team now.

  26. #26
    Best player today for me. Frimpong has ripped us to bits the last twice we’ve played them. Mackie won that battle today.

    I still think Doig is the long term answer, and I’d have moved Mackie on by now. However his performance today gave me pause for thought and he’s now got a genuine chance to make LB his if he can play like that consistently.

    Personally think Mackie is much better than Doig and I'd be starting Mackie the next few games.

    Mackie got sent off last year against the Huns then got a bad injury. Seems to be fully fit again now and I'm sure he'll show his worth.

    Well done Sean.

    Thought he had a decent game. Longer term Doig will be a CH. he’s 6ft 2 now and not stopped growing.
