The rest? Not so sure. Think we will be in for a good surprise with the big lad from Cambridge and also Mulraney agree re Edwards and lee .. the keeper will be decent and jury out on the rest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAlim Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 1 minute ago, Frank1874 said: Think we will 100% play two up front next season. It’s Craig’s preferred formation and now he has the players to be able to do it he will. The midfield four won’t be a classic four with two wingers, it’ll be a winger on one side and more of a player in the Boyack/Stamp mould on the other side imo For the first time in a long time, it looks like we may be able to play every conventional formation known to man and still maintain a decent bench if the expected further players are added reckon the formation will be a big debating point this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 When is the next pish signing. So far McLean is the one I get the warmest feeling for.

Section Q Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Man U sign 19 yo fullback for £19m. Right back apparently. Was hoping it might have lb and we could have kept Mitchel.

Plenty of perspiration if not inspiration the problem is scoring more goals. the new players change the squad, that is good, its not the same squad as that last season. and it feels like we are adding where we need, forwards/midfield/leftback . the players so far, are a mixture of less experience and decent experience. we can't see the character of the players and the squad easily. and that is a factor. and we don't know how well they will adapt to Levein/MacPhee gameplans.

Rudy T Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 I'm told today Hibs are set to announce the signings of Kamberi Allan and Stevie Mallan....McGinn is part of the Allan deal with him going to Celtic. See how our signings stack up against them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Rob Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 I think things are encouraging. We haven’t made any marquee signings, but arguably we did that last year (assuming we can tie up Naismith). What we lacked was a solid structure around them to enable them to perform. Good teams need graft as well as talent. I think this is what Levein is putting in place. The likes of Cochrane will look even better playing in a better midfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mallan and Allan....sounds like a 60's double act....are not McGinn and McGeough. The lad Kamberi is decent enough. I reckon all 3 require transfer fees (Allan in terms of less McGinn cash) so who knows what Lennon has left after them. Still looks a weaker hibs team. Time will tell who Aberdeen and the bun cheeks sign but I like how we are going about our business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
