This from a fan of the Babes who only played football. Better football. Still a few times when they have punted instead of passing, but better than Saturday.

supermarv 65 Report post Posted January 23 Said ariyibi was a player on Saturday and proving it once again. Good to see Hastie playing who I think is far better than Frear! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't see the game so on BBC text and here for updates :-/ I found out recently that companies like Opta that measure these things just count the number of passes each team makes rather than how long each team has the ball. So they can look a bit weird sometimes. We have easily been the better and more dangerous team so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So they can look a bit weird sometimes. According to the Beeb "This is a vastly different Motherwell performance from their Scottish Cup exit on Saturday. The Steelmen have had Hibs pinned back for most of the first half and David Turnbull’s wonderfully composed finish was the icing on the cake. Gboly Ariyibi and Jake Hastie have terrorised the visiting defenders down the flanks and it was the latter who set up the goal. Hibs’ new signings have been fairly quiet. Stephane Omeonga is on a booking and is naturally taking a while to adapt to the speed of the Scottish game. Ryan Gauld started brightly but saw less of the ball as the half went on."

Fairhill 13 Report post Posted January 23 While I look at the stats, there is only one that counts. Shots on goal and corners might help, but possession means nothing. If passes counted Henderson at Liverpool is the best, but that's only because he's petrified he might have to do something with the ball if he keeps if for more than three seconds. More goals than the other team seems like the best measure for me in the long run. Bring back the Weir, Hunter, Saint, Quinn and Andy Weir any day!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't see the game so on BBC text and here for updates :-/ Not even close, good old BBC. Hibs with slightly more possession I’d say.....Football has been better with Gorrin & Turnbull in particular trying to keep it on the deck. Both Gboly and Hastie looking really dangerous at times....Hibs struggling to get in behind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
