After reading that 2nd para I must add IMO the biggest "miss" in our midfield is John McGinn. Hibs got a lotta money from his transfer deal although he did want to progress to a far better standard of footie than what we are currently watching up here - many of the Scot Prem matches are f###### dire and I don't apologise re my previous comparison/criticism with some of the top National League teams in England. John was a workhorse and more in Hibs midfield - look at some of the results of him playing for Hibs in some vg cup campaigns and league challenges in Hibs sides that obviously didn't have a full quota of top players around him to compliment his style and commitment. If a club offloads our best players for money, the challenge always is to try to maintain a consistently high standard of team performance after the event. IMO Hibs have failed in that respect when one compares the standard with eg Aberdeen FC. One of the probs centres on players transfers in and out of the club - lotsa mistakes made in that activity alone and must do better if we are gonna advance as aspired by Ron Gordon.
