  1. Actually I do like Mullen, he is an out and out tryer, always puts in a shift. But he simply isnt a striker, he never holds the ball up.That's why Obika has been so important for us, and why Danny is bench warming at best.
    Danny runs till he loses it, Obika is a handful for any defender, holds it up, and gets in the box to finish.
     
    I dont think the thread is about Danny v Obika, it's about whether he should at least feature. I would see it more as Danny v Andrue or Morias

    Andrue is frustrating because we expect to see the type of goal(s) he scored against us but we haven't. He's missed 2 pens (1 that mattered) so a lot of people question his desire and mentality. What isnt recognised is that he has set up most of our goals. People remember the missed sitters that have cost us points rather than assists.

    Morias seems to be a good honest pro. He is small strong and tries hard. He has had a lot of chances to shine and hasnt really done that, maybe due to where he is played ie like being played on his own up front against Hamilton.

    Mullen, carries a lot of favour in a similar way Billy Mehmet did in that he may not score v often but when he does it's a cracking goal that generally meant something. Like mehmet he also has a lot of weaknesses to his game. Where Billy didnt pass Mullen does the same. The slight difference iscwhere billy kept running until he ran it out of play or was tackled Danny falls over and is very rarely awarded a freekick.

    I doubt anyone thinks Danny should start ahead of Obika but bringing him on when we need an unexpected goal from somewhere should be an option.
  2. I think Danny and Cody are suffering for their failure in the league cup at the very earliest stage.

    Obviously we dont know what's going on at training or elsewhere but I do think we are shooting ourselves in the foot with using exactly same substitutions every match.

    Danny can be frustrating, but boy can he smack them home when it counts.

  3. Johan Larsson.
    Out of contract since 1 Jan.
    Swedish international
    Hes a hybrid of Henrik Larrson and Johan Mjalby both did alright over here so he would too.

    Plus he's got a great you tube compilation just to keep FS happy.


    With hodson doing his hamstring, we are REALLY up against it now regarding defenders, we can moan all day about letting certain players go but what is done is done, surely we will be looking into free agent market.

    anybody here you think would do us a job ?
    Get Flareybob to get this one sorted out for us.

  4. Having a little time to reflect on this I wish Paul every success if, as expected he goes. He has done a great job for Saints. 
    There is irony in that Hibs current need has been exacerbated by an injury to an ex St Mirren player. 
    Getting injured players back in first team contention is important as is bringing in reinforcements which strengthen the team. 
    We don't seem, so far, to have managed to move on Cody, Danny or Djorkaeff. If we don't, then our need for cash in to help fund extra players will be paramount. Imo
    The irony runs a lot deeper.

    Hibs need him to replace the guy that was called into our first team ahead of him causing him to leave to the place where he first met up with the manager who is now looking to sign him for the second time even though the manager has never once picked him in a starting 11. The manager has also sold the guy before now.

    If he leaves before the end of the season he will no doubt be the only McGinn to not have won a medal with us. Must be awkward at the dinner table.

  5. Aye definitely one that gives me mixed feelings.

    He can frustrate the hell out me, but has become a bit of a cult hero with his important goals. Generally always gives us his all.

    Not a good feeling reading that. Danny gives everything for the team. Worth keeping.
  6. Aye, and because of Jacks respect for Jim and his adoration for our club we would be to trust him 100%.

    No chance of skullduggery there.

    Jim would have talked to Jack Ross about this player and will be in a great place to make a solid judgment.
