Anyone take Melker Hallberg, Swedish midfielder?

I should add - even if this isn't based on any info whatsoever, congrats on posting the first genuine rumour in yonks.

We should get some criminal who has to do community service to trawl back through this thread and summarise all of the various tangents we've shot off on as some sort of punishment.

Why do you ask Pete?

Signing to tomorrow, so I'm told. Plays centre/defensive midfield.

Don't hold it against me if it doesn't happen.

Yes we do.

That would mean Horgan and Middleton played in midfield on Saturday. They clearly didn't.

Really hope the manager isnt doing business because the fans moaned a bit. May as well leave now if that's the case.

Aye, managers sit riveted to fans forums at night and make decisions the next day based on what they read.

Just watched video and thought same.

Some amazing goals and doesn’t look defensive. But would take him.

We play one up front in the same way that Liverpool and Barcelona play one up front.

The wide man are forwards, they’re just not strikers.

I was implying that he has changed the narrative, not the strategy.

Thanks for sharing Pete 👍

**~~Torto7~~** · 22-08-2019 06:27 PM

I've just been researching Melker. Apparently he likes to go on long runs but leaves his balls behind, oo er.

Anyway from what I can see he was highly rated 3 Swedish caps 1 goal. Got a move to Udinese then a couple of loans back home before moving to his last club where it seems to have gone wrong. They got relegated and he seemed to have bad injuries.

He's told the Swedish press that he was continuing abroad for his next move.

Combining the youtube compilation and his history what I've read about him he sounds like an exciting signing. The injury issues being the slight risk although I'm sure Hibs will get that thoroughly checked out.

If we sign him of course.

Reliable source? I know how easy things can change with transfers though, only need to think back a few weeks to the Ojo shenanigans.

Be chuffed to get another central mid in though!

👍

No need for the condescending tone.
PH said no more are coming in unless other players leave and we will then look to get in replacements. So yes, we might see more bodies in but they will be replacements for what we already have.

Dont worry about the condescending tone. You get used to it with certain posters on here.

**Souter96Mac** · 22-08-2019 06:50 PM

Love these sorts of rumours. Get him in. Get anyone in

**~~Speedway~~** · 22-08-2019 06:54 PM

There’s a crowd in his highlight reel - deal.

Sounds interesting looked more like an all round midfielder. Decent physique looks athletic and decent on the ball. Only 23 and has had good international recognition 23 caps at u21 and 3 full caps. Looks like he hasn't played since May.

He seems to be an all rounder like you say. From his clips he was taking up positions all over midfield. He seems to have a fierce shot as well and athletic.

The international part is really encouraging imo.

I'm hoping this is true it sounds more Omeonga than De Graaf.

**~~Speedway~~** · 22-08-2019 07:15 PM

Looks like we’re signing the Swedish Stevie Mallan.

Swedey Mallan?

If only we had an all round midfielder, big physique and athletic who was decent on the ball who was around that age with a lot of international experience!

We need a ball winner in there who protects the defense i dont think he is what we need!

Yeah same profile/different style, lots of hype when younger a couple of iffy moves then Hibs move in.

Some more comments on twitter, when he broke through at 18/19 he was described as the most talented Swedish player since Ibrahimovic. Two years ago he finished behind Llorente and Asensio in key passes at the u21 Euros. A supporter at Vejle said he was the one bright spark in a poor season last year.

The more I read about this guy the more I like the sound of it.

Thanks Pete. Derek McInness just been spotted at Edinburgh airport wearing nothing but a smile with a rose between his beep beeps

Video started well, but last four minutes was pretty average.

Joking, he looks just what we need.
