    Delighted we're getting a hard as * game like this.

    Every other team in Scotland needs to step their * game up and play like this totally.

    For me he is back up at best, need to address our centre halfs come the summer time and add quality.

    True. I felt the same about Scott Brown before he signed to be fair.

    Dire. After the high of last week we’ve went back to our usual performance this season.

    Pish at the back, sloppy passes, not ruthless enough in the final third.

    Forrest needs benched for a couple of games. Ntcham needs taken off because he’s playing like a Sunday league player.

    NtCham getting bullied.
    I think Rogic has been our best player but he's also had some slack touches.

    Not really at the races so far but Hibs are playing at their absolute peak, I said before the game a draw and I still think it will be that. Suits everyone.

    The rest of the midfield really need to give themselves a shake, Brown is in there himself.

    This formation just totally surrenders the wings also, we need to revert to our normal shape.

    Armstrong in for Ntcham. Odsonne maybe on for Forrest? Stevenson is able to match James for pace, but Edouard will be too strong physically.

    It was the biggest weakness of his Liverpool team as well.

    Gordon's poor pass was the cause of the goal. We have been dreadful in the last third, poor decision making, poor shooting. NChamp is having a dreadful game, he wants too much time on the ball. When a team like Hibss keep pressing you don't get that time. Griff to score to make it 1-1

    Rocket up the * needed..

    Rogic our best attacking player here but his sloppiness in our own half and defensively is there for all to see..

    Him and McGregor are allowing Broony and Ntcham to be overrun. The latter as poor as I've seen him domestically..

    Got in to some good positions but wasteful. Particularly Forrest. KT a couple of time's also..

    I'd make a double sub now. Paddy on for Forrest or McGregor. Edouard maybe as well..

    Lenny and Steve Clarke are a different level to the rest of Scotland (bar Brendan obv)

    His tactics are spot on here, he’s completely removed the midfield battle except where he’s wanting it to be fought. We need to adapt to it.

    We technically don’t have a left winger we are relying on KT. The whole shape is a riot!

    He has that thing about him and loves to get stuck in, plus he is good on the ball and plays the right pass. I would deffo sign him

    If Hibs put this effort in against the rest they'd already be sitting above the Huns and the sheep.

    on the day we can win the title and the team cant seem to get up for it.

    Ntcham is dire, done nothing. McGregor isnt his normal self. Tierneya nd Forrest cant cross a * ball but at least Tierney is taking men on and beating them, Forrest cant even do that.

    subs we need
    Roberts > Forrest
    Edouard > Ntcham

    Great game so far. Hibernian deservedly ahead.
