What a waste of a player/career though (imo) Aye, he was fannying about with Salveson and getting about £50 a week at the gardening before Hibs took him on trial. Not sure he was ever a great "player", but he scored some vital goals, won the Scottish Cup and got to wrestle with Grado ! eta, might have been North Merchiston, I cant really remember Edited January 15 by Leith Green 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll deliver Cadden, McKirdy, JDH and ALF and not spend a penny. Genius! I believe we're absolutely skint due to our spending in the summer. If we don't sign anyone this window, this squad won't finish top 6. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, but unless he agrees to occasional cross dressing, it's a no from me. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am i allowed to say i think this is a strange signing for Hibs and just puts more money into unbalancing an already unbalanced midfield? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not when we have a history of just signing randoms because they are available with no reason or plan as to how to mould them into our team. I firmly believe we are in for the player and there's not a chance he fits into 442. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might fit into the second striker role to let Vente move further forward but I’m not sure he’s ever really played there. There seems to be a lot of hype around him and I don’t really see why. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There seems to be a lot of hype around him and I don’t really see why. Think as the league's ratio of Wee ballers:Midfield cloggers has gone down over time when one goes through a purple patch they're likely to get a lot of attention. He does seem to have excellent technique and is influencing games a lot at the moment. FWIW I wouldn't mind it, as has been suggested could play as a 10 in an adaptation of our current system; alternatively can play wide and I don't think it's an awful idea to have a different kind of wide player than our pacey pacey runny runny boys either. Is it a priority over defenders and a top quality all round/ball-winning CM? Absolutely not. Do I think there's much chance of it anyway? Not really. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good player but one who benefits from being the "main man", and who'd vanish a bit around better players. I also think this about Danny Armstrong who'd become a sort of solid squad player at other clubs than Kilmarnock too, or if they improve their attack. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
