wellboy1991 Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 20 minutes ago, Well Well said: Just back, that boy from Arsenal is absolutely amazing. Never seen a player get the stadium up on their feet like that before. Great skill and determination. So happy we have him for the full season. Our midfield were brilliant. Back line solid and forwards scored the goals. Great 3 points. I guess you are quite young then … never experienced a Cooper, McFadden, Coyne. Not having a sog, just asking. He fair turned the game and looks a great player. Work rate pace, composure and strong as a bull. Makes me more confident for the season ahead that’s for sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YassinMoutaouakil Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 I've only heard descriptions of him on the radio. I'm picturing Mika as a sort of Ojamaa type? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I experienced them all. Can't say McFadden ever made me feel like that in a well shirt. only time when he scored for Scotland in France. Coyne was a great striker but never got me off my feet. Cooper was special though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each to their own but McFadden never got you up and excited when he was twisting and turning past players or lining one up from distance? Agree Coyne a different type of player but McFadden brought a buzz to absolutely - almost absolutely - everyone as far as I remember. To the present day, the HO comparison for Biereth is very apt. I still think we need more out of whoever is alongside him, even with Wilkinson scoring today, but we can breath a fraction easier for a couple of weeks at least. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'WellDel Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 Don't want to put too much weight on a young laddie's shoulders and half an hour or so is a fairly small sample size, but Biereth is going to be absolutely massive for us this season. Boy's a 'baller. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MurrayWell Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 Fair enjoyed that second half today, first not so much. Mika was excellent, so exciting and Hibs just didn't know how to deal with him. His quality was clear, but what I absolutely loved about his assist and goal was that he just refused to give up on either. Midfield throughout were excellent again, special mention for Slattery who had the Hibs midfield rattled. All four of our four strikers off the mark now (three out of four in the league) which is class. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with this all Wilko and Mika scoring to add to Bair last week is tremendous for them all and of course for us. Eases the pressure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swami Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 It’s absolutely mental to me that Lennon Miller is just an automatic first choice in our midfield now, and doesn’t look even slightly out of place, at 16 years old. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

18May1991 Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 Can’t be the only one that’s a wee bit disappointed the Bair didn’t score. Hope he’s not dropped for this young Danish pretender. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MP_MFC Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 Slattery was outstanding the day. Covered every blade and boiled their piss. The balance in the midfield we have just now is excellent. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 (edited) I didn’t really notice Davor when he came on, but presumably we need to give Miller a rest at some point or can we just fire a 16 year old into a 45 game season?

Hope he is a step up from either of the aforementioned Think it is fair (even with a small sample size) that he probably will be. I said to friends on the way to game and friends at the game I have a hunch Mika will turn out to be a baller and a stand out. Hopefully not jinxing it for us or him. Fair enjoyed that today. Yes Hibs played a Euro game midweek, but I feared for us a little today. But everyone almost to a man was very good. Mugabi I thought had a very solid game . I felt Wilkinson was a wee bit off it up until he scored to be fair. Was surprised Bair was subbed cause I thought he was the bette of the two. But Kettlewell did say post match that he had not trained much. Great 3 points and hopefully the start of a decent league campaign 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 At the start of the season I look for our first goal, then our first point then our first win. All my boxes are ticked, let the season proceed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesP_81 Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 (edited) Thoroughly enjoyed that today. First game I've made it to this season and glad I took the day off work to go . After 2 seasons in the Cooper stand this was my first ever game watching from the POD and felt it was a much better viewing experience . Have to say I got excited when I saw Kettlewell send his guy along to fetch Mika off his warm up , and man did he not disappoint! Thought we were easily the dominant team but without too much threat but he changed the game completely, would have expected that ball to be lost at least 3 times in the build up to his assist and how many strikers we've had over the years would have turned that attack into a goal after they'd been crowded out and got 2 defenders back goalside of them ! ETA I also had Wilkinson on for 1st goalscorer Edited August 13, 2023 by JamesP_81 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
