Boyle as a striker on his own makes Nisbet look like Pele. Awful idea.

There’s a saying about keeping on doing the same thing and expecting different results.

The majority of his performances for Hibs as a striker have been poor. I will happily prove that. He is a very good right winger. He is not a striker, and certainly not a lone striker.Last edited by MWHIBBIES; 25-10-2021 at 06:48 PM.

We had a few good games like that then iirc a poor one against Motherwell and that pair came back in.
Not sure he’s played there since.
Boyle has been pretty well handled by defences in his best position for a wee while now.
I do think we need to try something. That front 3 of Murphy, Nisbet and Boyle has been impotent for a while, forgetting for a minute what’s going on further back.

He has a very good goal scoring rate playing up front.
Provide us with evidence he has been poor there.

One of his best ( if not his best) ever games for Hibs came as a striker at Tynecastle so again, not true what you say.
Your claims that he is a disaster up front, and is an awful idea, and that the majority of his games up there have poor are totally wrong. I'm not getting into a pointless argument with you though because you would argue with someone until the end of time, so I'll bow out there.

Alright cool man. He played more than 30 games for Hibs as a forward under Lennon and Stubbs, never mind Hecky and Ross. Yeah, he had a great game away at Hearts. probably the worst Hibs have played in the last 10 years away at Kilmarnock in a 3-0 loss he played as a forward and it made me want to gouge my eyes.
Boyle is a great player, and one of my favourites. But he is, on average, pretty poor as a striker.

Drey Wright to step into the centre of midfield and run the show. Desperate times call for desperate measures.
United we stand here....

I'd actually wondered about McGinn at sweeper as one way of making up for Porto being out. Quick, decent on the ball, reads the game well but maybe not quite dominant enough aerially for a centre half. We've always considered him to be a good RB and good on the right of a 3 but would never consider him as a classical RCB in a back 4.
If Cadden had made a more positive impact over the past 2 games I'd have maybe given it further consideration but I've not really been blown away by him and think we need to get back to having McGinn in that position and figure out what to do elsewhere.

Was he not thought to be on his way out in last window before the injury

Porteous being back will make a huge difference, his use of the ball has generally been top class this season. Newell and jdh have really missed his ability to miss them out.
I think there is merit in both 352 and 4231 but I would go for the latter as I think murphy brings more than cadden. Whoever plays ahead of newell and jdh needs to match the high energy performances we were getting from magennis earlier in the season, making sure they get up the park and into the box when we attack. Allan doesn't do that well imo. Campbell seemed to have a bit about him and looked like he could play that role in pre-season but seeing as he is not getting a sniff wright is probably the most suited.
I would drop nisbet if we had anyone else to play instead, hopefully he gets a goal and can find some form again.

Yikes.
Experience tells us that sitting back against Celtc only ends one way.
I’m not sure I’m ready to see Wood in a Hibs shirt again. And Newell isn’t doing box-to-box these days, more shuffling around the centre circle.
