We need to talk about Lee

Maloney is a shambles of a manager.

Still recovering from Malloney. What on earth were Hibs thinking ?

Surprisingly good start for LJ, given the pre-season and some of the signings we've made, however really pleased to hear some of the TV commentators highlighting Hibs "good team spirit". That's something other Hibs managers have struggled to engender, so big credit to LJ. Last season we were a rabble of individuals, relying on Boyle to win us points. / games.

Let's give LJ a few more months before we proclaim him a success. Jack Ross proved that.

[Ronniekirk]

He said it would take around 10 games in before things started to click snd based on past three results he is being proved right
Clearly there will e more bumps along the way and it would help to get our injured players back and match fit
My biggest area of concern is the number of forward players we have that don’t score ( Boyle being the exception )
Mckirdy needs more game time to see what he can do

The most important thing is the chances we are creating. Which we were in earlier games too. Falkirk we should've scored 3 or 4. Same with Livi. We were always going to start winning I think.

Important to keep it up, keep it fresh and not get figured out, though. Some very winnable games coming up. Could easily be going into the world cup a few points clear in 3rd.

[Donegal Hibby]

Lee Johnson is going to have some tough choices to make when everyone's back fit again and we will have a very strong bench in all . Think Kevin Nisbet would score plenty with the amount of chances and shots were creating at the minute.

Fitting Nisbet, Boyle, Youan, McKirdy, Bojang, Tavares, McGeady, Mitcjell and Mykola in is going to be hard!

And Merkelson too mind . Really can't remember for a long time having such good options up front .it's nearly a team of attackers. So here's the big question .what 3 would you pick?

Yes even in the games we have lost we have created aloy of chances.

I know not all chances are clear cut chances and maybe count of the xG but another 24 yesterday and also a lot of possession which ain't just playing about at the back etc.

Going off the spfl website we have had 151 shots so far this season 2nd only 9 behind celtic and again 2nd in goals conceded.

The midfield also is looking like a good balance so long may it continue and we can push on for a successful campaign.

I’m still not sure what happened with Mueller. Was it his decision to leave or was a mutual one?

I keep banging on about it, but we need another forward to step up and start scoring with some regularity. If we find that, we’ll take a bit of stopping with the number of chances we’re creating.

Think Johnson has just simplified things. Play the ball forward quicker, get bodies up the park and on to second balls and all that kind of thing. Goals yesterday probably demonstrate that.

Good thing yesterday, and against Aberdeen, is that we didn’t sit back when we got ourselves in front. We kicked in and looked to kill the game. That comes from the manager for me.

Boyle Nisbet McKirdy would be my 3 if all 100% fit.

He's delivered on his promise for enjoyable football.
Makes such a difference.
Winning helps too :-)

The big boy upfront has played himself into a starting role so far for me ..McKirdy early days, so much more to come from him ….but wouldn’t start before Kuharevich at the mo for me

3 good players players no doubt though I much prefer Boyle on right were I think he's more effective. Somebody's definitely going to shoot me down for my 3 . Mcgeady , Nisbet, Boyle would be my picks

[HH81]

Nisbet won't get back in the team.

Would be surprised by that. He remains the best finisher at the club and once fit I expect him to get back in.

He will need to prove himself though, he won’t be an automatic pick.

Would you play Kukharevych in the centre and sacrifice Nisbet or play Kukharevych on the left ?

[On January 20, 2022, Mueller made his debut for Hibernian^, he was allowed to return to the US in May 2022.
Hibs chief executive Ben Kensell said that Mueller had struggled to "adapt to the pace and physicality" of Scottish football.]
Ben maybe being diplomatic.

Personally,i think he also was surprised, if not shocked ,at the levels of fitness needed to compete here.

Or he may have just been homesick for buffalo wings and Wendy's eggs benedict !

Did McGeady do enough when he had his opportunities? I’m not so sure.

Nisbet won't get back in the team.

When fit we have the luxury of easing him back in. The players with the shirts are doing the job so Nisbet can make appearances from the bench. Certainly that will happen. He'll make match day squads and sub appearances.

After that starts are there to be won and he is capable of that when fit and focussed. I can't see any reason to write him off.

I agree think Nisbet is probably our best goalscorer and works hard for the team .Both him and Boyle on form would be first picks in Hibs team imo

Not writing him off just don't think he was very good before his injury and we have improved massively up front since.

Far too early to be making statements like that. I actually think he'd be excellent in this team.

Nisbet has very good movement and would thrive in a team that attacks and is on the front foot all the time, he struggled due to the way Ross had his team playing.

[Unseen work]

Based on what I’ve seen of the players available to play front 3 it would be McGeady - Nisbet - Boyle imo.

Not sure about McKirdy as a left winger (granted very small window) but all of his clips I saw of him was as a centre forward or running down the right using his pace.

Hopefully he adjusts but either way our options are brilliant when everyone is fit

That is actually quite scary now when you think about it Malky McKay and Derek McInnes as two candidates for the Hibs job.
