I expect they did, and I don't doubt it was in good faith. But if he hasn't shown enough in training or whatever, then they're entitled to change their mind. Every footballer knows they have to earn their game time.

If our strikers are keeping the defence busy and JT is scoring 11 goals, maybe it’s working?

Thats the thing that is making me scratch my head. He and his dad said he wanted to go to a team where he would play regularly so Udinese must have told him he would?

I know what you mean but I do think he’s been carrying an injury, I thought his movement was significantly better on Saturday. Outwith his penalties his other goals are proper strikers goals. There is a good player there, it may just be he’s not suited to our style of play and I think that’s the same for Hendry, unless it’s going to take a bit of time for strikers to get used to it? I have a feeling he’ll start tomorrow

Noticed at the time they had a quick chat about it, would be interesting to know what they said. (But I'm glad he took it too.)

There may be a player there but he needs to start scoring goals from open play to convince people that there is. For me i think he is anonymous in a lot of games and never seems to make any significant contributions, not that the penalties have not been significant and important, but he needs to do more to win his doubters over

I actually thought that Stama did well when he came on at the weekend and looked sharper and quicker than he has done? Maybe his injury that he’s been having bother with has cleared up or he’s been at a sprint coach or something but I’d play him from the start. I still think he’s a better and cleverer player than Hendry. i was glad also that he took the penalty away from Maswanhise. Showed confidence and belief that’s he’s the striker, he’s the penalty taker.

Think I’d start Hendry again to soften them up a bit and then Stama coming on for the last 20/30 mins unless Hendry is having an outstanding game. start Just and replace him, when he starts to tire, with Said. let’s see what JT turns up amd replace him with RCC if needed. Encourage our full backs to get crosses in early for Hendry.

This is going to be a tough game. Hibees are a good side so we need to be on top of our game

I am more confident of getting a result against Hearts now than I was before today's game Traditionally when a club outwith both Glasgow teams are top of the league like a Hearts or Aberdeen, they usually have a great run followed by a really poor run A positive result against Hibs of course first is what is required

I have a feeling this will be a really good game. I’ll be going along to this looking for a win and I’d love to beat Hearts on Saturday as well seeing as their wheels are now coming off the bogey as expected. They were rank rotten today against Aberdeen and they played like a traditional McInnes side.

Agree McGinn had a solid game again. However, he got caught stepping up too late again for offside call at the Killie goal. That’s the second time this season, same issue. He has to step up early before the ball is played. However, it was also a terrific ball that McGinn played Stama in for the penalty

Nicholson, Stuparevic, Robinson, McGhee?

Hibs have a very good record at Fir Park, it could go either way, Hibs are capable of being absolute pish or pretty decent.

He did. But he generally gives it away in the opposition half after he has dragged us up the park. If we can coach the final ball into his game he could be some player. He is 23 though, so not sure how much more development is in there when really its decisikn making that is the problem.

Its mental that we sell a generational talent for £4.5m and end up with a better midfield than we had before. I would have loved to have seen how Miller might have thrived in this team, but alas, thats not the way the world works. I expect Slattery may well be the next one to be sold and there will undoubtedly be suitors for Watt and Fadinger. Just need to enjoy them while we can (no pun intended).

Has to be Maswanhise for the 2 first half goals. Mention for Fadinger who was good as usual and Ward who had a good save at 0-0 and dealt well with crosses. Shocked to see Said getting some votes here, thought he terrible and gave the ball away constantly.

It's good to see some variation in the set pieces that don't just involve long ball to the back post, short ball to the front post.

I think the biggest testament to our current midfield is we never hear anyone say we miss Lennon Miller. (Of course he'd still be an asset in this team). The midfield we have assembled, with balance that Fadinger, Just, Slattery and Watt bring makes it one of the best I have see for years. And with options like Said we even have a little depth for the first time.

Looking forward to this one. Will just be nice to have a home game, and on grass too. A draw wouldn't surprise me, but if we be a little more clinical we might edge a win.

Can see this one being a draw. 1-1

Same for me, he does so much of the unglamorous stuff that often goes under the radar but lays the foundations for others.
