Kyle magennis

[B.H.F.C]

Injured after a handful of games is fairly typical for him.

[Dashing Bob S]

Feel sorry for him. A talented player but he’s never going to reach anything like his potential with his fitness record.

I’m glad we didn’t persevere but there’s nothing here remotely worth gloating about.

It is a shame for him as he can be a very good player when fit, must be pretty soul destroying for the lad as well, so I wish him all the best, just sorry it never worked out at Hibs.

[Hibee Mac]

Absolutely inevitable with that lad, it's a shame for him but from Hibs' perspective we are well rid of him.

More than a handful of games. Magennis has played 13 games for Kilmarnock this season.
Coincidentally the same number of games he played for Hibs in each of the last 2 season.

It’s no really that much more. 900 minutes of football he’s managed before he’s out again. Hamstring as well so he’ll probably be in and out and always be a couple of weeks away as he was with us. Shame for him, his body just can’t cope with playing for any sustained period of time.

[Since452]

Potentially a tremendous career ruined by injuries. Shame. Hopefully not a bad one.

[BILLYHIBS]

Wish the boy all the best

Played well against us could have done with him in our midfield that second half

[Malthibby]

Always liked him, damn shame his body's letting him down.
Shows how hard it is to 'be all you can be,' talent's not enough on it's own, Scotty A. being another obvious example.

[SChibs]

Players like Magennis are the reason I cant dislike others who follow the money in football. You could be one bad injury away from never or barely ever playing again so it's not unwise to take the best offer whilst it is there

[Cat Stanton]

See he's out for 8-10 weeks with a bad hamstring tear.

Fair play to him for continuing to try to ply his trade.

Those of lesser heart (and talent) would have thrown the towel in long ago.

Such a shame, think he would be out best player if not for his injury problems

If Newell, Boyle, Vente, Miller and Youan retired, sure.

He's certainly a talented player. Whether or not he'd be a better player than Boyle for example is debatable.

The heartbeat of a team with 1 win in 8 games.

I've watched killie a few times and I can see why McInnes said that as in most games he's been one of their best players, thought in the defeat to hertz in the cup he was excellent . Very good footballer who's been extremely unlucky with injuries. Wish the guy a speedy recovery.

[Hibee Mac]

Sorry but Kyle Mageniss' ability gets massively overstated by some of our support. Putting aside his glaring issue of staying fit longer than 10 games, he must have had about 5/6 good games for us?

That's probably a small percentage of the total games he played for us, even with his injuries. Don't forget he must have had a good number of games under Jack Ross where he was absolutely anonymous.

I find it very difficult to believe he'd be our best player. Feel bad for the guy and his injury problems, but there's definitely some revisionism or something going on when folk say how amazing he is.

He was never better than Joe Newell, he just scored the odd goal which massively exaggerated his ability imo. He was good, but never our best player.

Goals seen to do that for midfielders here. People overlook huge flaws in Campbells game because he scores. Campbell is fine, deserves everything he gets because he works very hard, but his footballing ability needs to improve.

Jack Ross played Magennis out of position when he first came into the team. We never saw the best of him until he was moved more central. He had a great start to the 21/22 season and looked like he’d really motor on until the injuries arrived again. Don’t think there’s any revisionism going on at all.

Correct. Hugely overrated. He started a season well and scored a few goals. Other than that he was bang average at best.

[Chip shop Joe]

I know that I have joked before about Joe (or his agent) being on this forum but as the days go on I am becoming more and more certain😃.

We will never know how good magennis could have been as sadly his career has been plagued with injuries though anytime I seen him he looked a player . Different type of Midfielder to Newell though .

Goalscoring midfielders are popular and not just on here , there hard to get !. As to Campbells flaws yes he has some though all our Midfielders have some sort of flaw in there game imo , yesterday i wondered were our Midfield was in the first half of our game with hertz

Agree. He had more poor games at Hibs than he had good games.

[J-C]

He had just come back for a serious injury and Ross played him in various positions just to get the minutes into his legs. When he played on his preferred position he was very good but couldn't stay fit. He should never have been signed until his fitness was proved but because Ross worked with him before, we took a chance, waste of wages for 2 years, not the lads fault but just poor management.

[Centre Hawf]

For me it was no coincidence that when he got injured before (or in/after?) that first Edinburgh Derby in 21/22 season our form went right out the window. We were looking like a great wee side that could have gone on to get third after the 7/8 games we were looking good for it, then after his injury we started to collapse entirely and arguably never really recovered for the best part of a year in terms of putting back-to-back wins together. Which coincided with around the time of Magennis returning under LJ.

He was clearly a good good player, better than some others we had for sure, and while I love Joe Newell lets not kid ourselves that many didn't prefer the fit KM in the midfield over him and JDH for large spells until Newell kicked his game up a gear.
