Limited evidence so far but from what I've seen we seem to have more of a plan in attack than last season.
Couldn't really say what the plan was last season, some great passages of play without anything happening, or rather spawny periods where we ended up with a goal for some reason - multiplied by 40 games or so. For whatever reason I never really felt Newell and Irvine combined, and Gogic is fairly hit and miss with his contributions at either end of the pitch.
Magennis in for Irvine seems to be working well thus far, and that little passage of playing involving Doyle-Hayes before the penalty is what I've dreamt of watching at Hibs for a long time. Heard Campbell coming in with a couple of goals for Edinburgh City on Open All Mics last season so good to see him back too. Thought he was a defensive midfielder but seemingly can play on the wings too, good to have that versatility and it seems Ross has a good bit of faith in him.
Up front I thought they all played well, Nisbet in particular for his involvement in the goals. Had thought we'd been playing better with two wingers and Nisbet so was surprised to see Doidge on, but to see him get his goal on the first day was delightful.
All in all I've clearly enjoyed myself, and took great enjoyment in seeing Ross beaming away with the players and the fans at the end of the game. Disappointed to see Doig probably leaving today but Louis was solid today and we're clearly getting a decent deal if Mathie's previous comments about what it will take to make us sell are anything to go by. Exciting to see if this has any influence on what we do with the rest of our window, and rather hope that its the last of our outgoings too for that matter.
