1953 Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Thought he was great today. The Hibs defence didn't know what to do with him in the first half. His goal was fantastic but he faded in the second half, but they all did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Australis Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 He was left up front way to much on his own today. Boyce and the midfield were miles away from him to get the best out of him. Fantastic strike for the goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heartsfc_fan Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 (edited) Hanlon will be having nightmares with Simms being the baddy. Threw the Hibs defence around today and scored an absolute peach. Needs to be more composed when running in through to goal though. I'll let him off though this evening 🍺 Edited April 16, 2022 by heartsfc_fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ToqueJambo Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 (edited) Love the power he put into his shot for the goal - proper Hotshot Hamish stuff right through the ball, both feet in the air.

GarryJ-o-s Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Suspect he might be back for the first 6 months of the season. If you’re Everton it’s a great chance to see him in action in big games and make a decision. Unless someone like Middlesbrough come in the summer for a fee. Wonder what Everton could reasonably expect for him? Probably about 6 times what we could get for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daughter went out celebrating left me alone with 2 Hibby’s, in fairness to my son, he took it in goodwill whereas my husband was moaning about Beaton. I thought I wasn’t going to argue. For some reason they are feeling hard done by as they believe we were getting all the decisions. Beggars believe 😁😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry Haggis Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 What a performance, really turned up for this match and was sublime. His goal was fantastic and maybe shows he does have that deep down strikers instant - turn get your shot away early. Immense on the day and very much deserved his MoM.

jackal Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 A reason we should have a right to buy clause in loan deals if we can. Don't know if Everton can afford to take the chance and play him depending where they end up but they are more likely to spunk millions on a proven striker than give ES a chance.

Halliphax Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 Raw talent we could mould to suit our (and the Scottish) game. Any loanee that runs up to the Hibs support and points at his Hearts badge after scoring a screamer should be signed just on principle.

Rocky jamboa Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 Didn't know he had that sort of finish in him yesterday. Should defo be looking to sign permanently from Everton. Can't see him breaking into the Everton team just now so £500k and a sell on clause may tempt them. Providing he is prepared to accept reasonable wages, then its a no brainer for me.

TheBigO Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 He was great. One wee thing and it's just experience, he needs to spin those channels more when our full backs or CHs have the ball. He had their entire defence on toast bur after their goal kind of stopped making that run. It's his best weapon and he doesn't use it enough. Run across and behind Porteous again and again and again. We couldn't get into Barrie or Boyces feet, the midfield was just a war zone, for me we needed Ellis stretching the game a bit more. Really really not moaning by the way! Love him!

His run across Rocky last weekend for the chance he missed was exceptional. Instinctive movement. He’s raw but he’s bloody good already. Did it yesterday just before he scored too and was wrongfully flagged offside. Would’ve been an easy pass across to Boyce to roll in net.

He just seemed to stop doing it. I think the plan is that run is made for McKay or the cms to find him but I just felt he might have let Kingsley and Sibbick off the hook a bit by giving them that run at times too. Huge, unnecessary nitpickery when it comes to yesterday as probably motm or certainly thereabouts! But we'll need that run ALOT in the final.
