Can't believe he doesn't have his own thread until now
Don't like being over critical of Hibs Players, especially when the team on the whole have been playing well. But this guy...
Cannot consistently make a successful 10 yard pass, gets caught out off position more often than any other hibs player, tries to beat his man (which I appreciated) but runs it out of play or straight into his man, plays with his head down (a big "No No" for me) and has negative impact on other player performance due to his pure inability to allow them to trust him.
The "He deserves another chance", "took his goal against rangers well" and "great ball for doidge header against hamilton" don't justify a regular place in the squad for me. Can't justify 10-15 p**s poor performances for 2 moments of above average / good. If the budget allows, replace... if not S MCGinn, Mallan, Magennis, Allan (when returned) and Newell are all better options.
Hope he proves me wrong and scores a hatrick at the weekend, but i have my doubts...

He's had his on thread, and he's been slated on that and other threads Infact i'm sure you made a point of saying you'd rather have Fraser Murray playing?

I have said before, I have friends who are neighbours of his grandparents. The guy had a season long injury at St Johnstone and, as with Scott Allan, we don't know the exact details, but any sports person coming back from injury is understandably cautious. Return to full fitness and get back to speed, especially with new team mates, will always take time.
He needs games, but must be doing OK in training otherwise Jack Ross wouldn't pick him.There is no such thing as too much yarn, just not enough time.

He’s got something about him, perhaps we need to be patient.

Not forgetting the sometimes unseen off the ball work which we are missing on screen. I think he has had a couple of assists and is showing willingness to get involved.

I have nothing to say apart from he needs to improve if he wants to get into first team
He shouldn’t need time to settle he has played in Scotland so by now I expected more
He is never going to score a lot of goals as doesn’t appear to have confidence
But it would be good to hear from Ross the role he envisaged Wright can play in the team and what his strengths are
Most of the new recruits it’s now clear what they bring to the team
But I struggle to see this with Wright
Given he is on a long term deal we need to see improvement next year

Some players take time to settle, some come out the traps flying and some simply don't do well at certain clubs.

If there was a thread called inconsistent players, then arguably most of them would be on it at some point. That's a different story than not being good enough. I am not saying that we are world beaters or even a top drawer side, but it's fair to say that this boy is stepping up a level by signing for us and when that happens it is a bonus if they hit the ground running, not a guarantee.

Horrible to say, but DW wouldn't look out of place in the 'class of 13/14'. Reminds me of many of those players we rightly cleared out. Perhaps a tad harsh for a Friday morning but just an observation...

So that's Drey Wright sorted, who's next?
We've a squad that's 3rd in the league, in a cup semi with a realistic chance of a final and some big games ahead.

A cracking assist recently (v Hamilton I think)
Some of the comments when he's announced in the starting line up are embarrassing from hibs fans
We're sitting in a very healthy position in the league, and we've got threads and replies to hibs about players not being good enough
