Daz has been outstanding, way better than Hanlon imo, at 6.99 I think I'd be correct in saying stats mean diddly squat.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Successful football teams these days use a large chunk of stats and "intuition" to pick players.
Stats meaning "diddly squat" in top level sport is just not true.

Hanlon’s had a very good season. My entirely subjective opinion but interesting that it seems to be borne out by facts.
When you play as many games as he does there will be mistakes along the way. McGregor was very good when he came into the side but IMO wasn’t great in the Motherwell game. That single game will have skewed his stats, as happens with smaller sample sizes (ie McGregor having played many fewer games than Hanlon).
Hanlon and Gogic are possibly our two main men right now and their effectiveness in their roles will be going a long way towards us having earned ourselves our decent league position.

There is the Players Team of the Year, where players cast votes for team, player and young player. Can't vote for players of their own club.
Not sure about SPFL.
For a team of the year I think the only Hibs player I would have in it would be Martin Boyle, Nisbet and Doig have done really well but they are up against it with Old Firm players in their positions that have done better.
Without googling we have had a few over the last 20 years. At a guess O'Connor, Riordan, Fletcher, Brown, Thomson, Griffiths, Stokes, McGinn, McGeouch.

As to whether he's been better than Hanlon or Porteous not in my opinion, but everyone is entitled to their opinion.
My reasoning would be the number of games played by each of the three players tells its own story.

If we keep playing how we played the other night, good chance he'll overtake him again.

I quite like the Players awards as they aren't biased as certain football journalists can be.

And Turnball, Roofe, Wotherspoon, Hagi were all rated higher than Boyle for their performances this season.
Quite surprising as 11 goals and 5 assists is much better than any other winger in the league this year. Some random stat like number of times dispossessed, or passing accuracy, must be bringing his rating down compared to those players listed. He also had a few very poor games, which might bring down his overall rating.
He'd probably be the right winger in my team of the season, even accounting for the several poor runs of form he had, based on his end product alone.

I would rather have Boyle over Kent in the Hibs team.

EDIT - Hanlon is our man - well done Paul!
It was always going to be dominated by Rangers but honestly surprised there's no room for Boyle in there - who gets my vote as our player of the season.Last edited by basehibby; 08-04-2021 at 05:31 PM.

On the head to head Hanlon wins on every stat listed.
NB - agree that stats don't tell the full story. I would give Boyle my personal player of the season so far - squeezing home in front of Newell and Hanlon in that order - but he only comes in 10th according to their analysis.
