Hibs boosted by a massive confidence building 6-0 win v a poor Dons' team while the Staggies have just won 3-0 v Killie in a bottom league clash that forced Killie to the bottom of the Scot Prem. This match is intriguing in the fact that Hibs have a revised defence that looks a tad better than the one that had Porto and Rocky in situ. We'll see what Hibs team shows up in this game. Has Lee Johnson come across a formation that makes the team look far more durable in defence and more positive up front? My biggest concern relates to Johnson's tactical ineptness when it comes to changing things when a game becomes difficult. There must be a chance of some injured players returning (plus new players in before the transfer window closes) although it has been refreshing to see some of our vg youth players finally being given an opportunity to impress. Aiden McGeady, Youan, Josh Campbell, Joe Newell and Kevin Nisbet really look like a core of players who are "up for the challenge" - enjoying their fitba with positive and hi-press stuff! Fish and Jeggo look like they've added some defensive security with their battling qualities. Early days to judge though! IMO it looks like another pivotal moment where Hibs have a chance to register an element of consistency by winning another match. C'mon Hibs! Lets pick up this positive momentum and keep going!
