    The hardest thing to do is score a goal. Every single football manager, player and pundit would say the same thing. That's why good strikers are paid much, much more than players in other positions.

    Under any other circumstances that would have been your answer, but not if it even slightly strengthens an opposing argument or weakens yours.

    It's impossible to have an adult conversation with someone who can't concede even the most blatantly obvious point.
    Clichéd rubbish. It would not have been my answer because it's not true. Winning titles is harder than scoring goals. That's why so few manage it, especially over a long period.

    Campbell scores more than Mcginn, McGeouch and Allan did. Which ones consistently won matches in Hibs shirts?

    It's much harder to have a conversation with someone who thinks only scoring goals matters. If you consistently control matches with 11 quality footballers, you'll score a lot more ****ing goals than having a guy in there who pops up with a few and offers little else.

    Suspect Campbell will continue to get plenty of football with us. He's fit and mobile and gets in good positions to score but you're right overall, I think we have better midfielders in the squad and we will surely look to add more quality when we can. Think there are better combinations between Jeggo, Newell, JDH and Levitt.

    I hope he does, assuming he continues to improve. He is much better than when he debuted. More games like St Mirren and he'll be at Falkirk before he knows it, though.

    Passing is a major weakness, don't care where he plays. It was awful when he was deeper too. Must improve.

    Be at Falkirk before he knows it. That statement sums up your absolute garbage opinion. Classless and way of the mark btw!You and a few others just doubling down on Josh, just acknowledge that some of the match day thread comments by you and others who continue to harpoon him at every opportunity. And back handed fleeting moments of “he was good but need to do it regularly” like he’s going to score hat tricks every week. Joker.😝

    Ah that well-known personal attribute of ‘winning titles’.

    The maradona 7 comparison would have made more sense, and that was said in complete jest.

    I do not harpoon him at every opportunity. I rarely comment in match threads as I go to games. I think he desperately needs to improve his passing and control of the football. That is it. An opinion about his footballing ability formed entirely on watching him for 2+ years. I actually think he has improved a lot. A positive opinion based on watching him too. Does that not fit your nonsense agenda?

    There is something between thinking he is Zidane and thinking he is utter pish. He is okay, some good, some bad, a lot to improve on. And yes, if he continues like the first day, he will not be at Hibs for long. He was playing against us.

    Was nothing whatsoever to do with personal attributes. The question was ''what is the hardest thing to do in football''.

    An individual doesn't win titles.

    The hardest thing for an individual footballer to do in a game is to score goals.

    Campbell scores goals.

    You knew fine what the question meant given the conversation it came from.

    Ah right. You should've just said that mate. Instead of changing the question after I'd answered it.

    Why do teams not just play 11 strikers if scoring is all that matters?

    Answer may be to win a professional contract and to keep earning a living at the game. just wish I had half the ability of this boy at the game.
    Aint half some rubbish spouted at times on this forum, can only be a slow news day.

    Just pay attention to the conversation and stop behaving like a child.

    How about sticking to the conversation instead of resorting to petty insults?

    Do you believe Josh Campbells passing, control and general play is good enough to start in a Hibs side finishing 3rd consistently?

    You're behaving like a child desperate not to concede anything under any circumstances.

    I just googled "What's the hardest thing to do in football".

    Try it. Google usually takes you at your word too.

    Didn't think so.

    Still young though, time to improve.

    At this point you’re just making a mockery of your own opinion.
    Comments like “be at Falkirk before he knows it” shows the measure of your argument. Just petty garbage.

    Canny make up my mind if your for real at this point or just winding folk up.

    Still just insults. No one proving me wrong or even trying to discuss football/Josh's attributes. 9 pages of ''he scores a few and runs about''.

    I said if he continues like his 35 minutes vs St Mirren, he will end up at falkirk. I don't really believe that is likely, though. He is better than that.

    I stopped debating anything with him a long time ago. Don't think it's winding up as much as a desperation to have the last word on anything and everything.

    Tbf he's just saying what the majority of people on this site are thinking. On the team for tomorrow thread not one person has picked Campbell in their starting eleven.
    There’s just saying something and there’s being ridiculous about it.

    In fairness I don’t think it’s trolling either, just always being that entrenched and desperate to be right resulting in not seeing how silly the argument is.

    Either way I can understand someone not seeing it worth engaging with.

    Good evening to you Sir, if I may go on the record here, I shall reiterate that the young man Campbell is not a bad modern-day player, he will go on to make Hibs a lot of money in the future. The fact that I may or not think you speak rubbish, has nothing to do with the fact he is a good young Hibs player, as such he gets my support.
    That Sir, is my final word on the subject.

    Another thread being ruined by petty bickering and arguing by usual suspect.

    The facts remain he's a young goalscoring Midfielder who scored more goals from Midfield than any of our other midfielders ( expect him to do it this season too )!. He's improved greatly and has potential to improve further.

    Even when he's not scoring his attitude is brilliant in the fact that he works his socks off for the team with great energy and stamina levels. Doesn't really matter if folk don't like / rate him or haven't picked him for there team .

    The most important opinion about Josh Campbell will be the manager's and going by what he's been saying about wanting players to work hard and give him everything I think he's going to like a player like Josh because at the end of the day Josh always gives Hibs 100%. Hopefully as a Midfielder himself Monty can help him improve more aswell . Good player and one of our own.

    Josh Campbell isn't going to find himself at Falkirk anytime soon. That's just ludicrous. Do wonder if some on here actually will our own players to fail...
