    Did he not come here as an out and out striker who can play off the left, we seem to have turned him into a wide attacker which maybe he's struggled with especially in the defensive side of that game.
    This 100%. We signed Elie as a nine.

    Imagine if you have played central striker since Age 8.

    16 years later, a Hibs manager tries to convert you into a touchline winger operating around the half-way line.

    Instead of being in and around the penalty box you are now starting runs with 8 or 9 opposition players between you and the goals.

    And mark midfielders running towards your goals.

    This is what happens to coaches who try to fit round pegs into square holes.
