    Are you sure he can't contribute?

    No guarantees he goes, just that's the talk from the Hibs end

    He's a decent player but his issue 3 of our CMs are younger than him and imo all a lot better. Our CMs cover ground really well and triantis really struggles in this aspect

    I hope I'm wrong and he's good enough to feature for us in the PL but I didn't see a PL player when I watched him last seasom

    No hints. Pure speculation and prayer.

    I’m sure you're right …

    … I just hope, and believe, any player leaving is shown respect.

    The club seems to be building a great reputation for that.

    Speculation is good

    I’ve not seen enough of him to form an opinion to be honest, was hoping to see him up close at shields next week

    I'm very confident that he can't contribute next season. Of course he might surprise me and I hope he does as I really like him

    He is poor at covering the ground and struggles on the half turn, often takes clumsy touches which loses possession, this gets found out at the top level

    Honestly the standard up here is so bad at the minute, he had a brilliant season but I don't think he's anywhere near ready to step up to a PL squad

    Sometimes it's all we've got, should probably have been looking at who's flying into Paris since that's why nobody has picked up on any of our movements. Even Sadiki did his medical there.

    Got no problems with selling anyone if we are bringing in good replacements, can't be sentimental in this game cause as they say "when you're standing still you're going backwards" so I'll thank any player who has got us here and I'll remember the effort they all put in the last 4 seasons and let's not forget we as a club have been very good for their careers.

    They will miss that lad. Always good for them
    I think they might want/ have wanted, to keep him. But being fair to a player is part of the deal. If we really don't see him playing, or perhaps if he doesn't see it himself, then at his age he needs a club where he can crack on.

    Look at Evan Ferguson. Cracking prospect but hardly played for a while because of injury before West Ham tried him, scored about a dozen in three seasons. Very young still, and I like him, but Brighton want £30m!

    They will, that's why I think we might sell Triantis. The easy thing to do is to loan him out again but he's now 22 so will likely want to settle somewhere so could see us doing what's right for him and giving him a move

    Of course he might stay for preseason and really impress and gets a shot next season

    Thanks for the insight. Do you think he's someone who could improve with different coaching and a different standard of player around him?

    I'm absolutely fine with Triantis going. Bare in mind the club will have been watching him fully at Hibs. I wouldn't be surprised if Reggie has watched hours and hours of his performances on video.

    If the club think its right to sell him then I'm completely on board.

    Would this be a Citation Index D-CENT by any chance?

    Yep i do, he massively kicked on last season so the growth is there as he's just learning the position. Just don't think he will improve to be a PL CM, I think championship will be his limit in England just due to the pace of the game

    Good player and 1 I loved watching last season so feel bad saying I don't think he's good enough for us now

    Blows my mind how quickly some are to write off Isidor! ..... can you imagine watching his highlight reel from last season if we had just signed him! ..... he dropped off a bit towards the end of a 49 game season ... but at times he was phenominal! scored some absolute worldies and has Pace to burn! I easily see him thriving in the premier league ... probably suits him even better than the championship as you would expect we will be looking to utilise fast counter attacks.

    My mindset has shifted recently with all the transfer news. Players who we might have retained / loaned out and then thought they'd be good to have in case we get relegated this season, they're no longer necessary.

    The club seem to 100% be focused on consolidating in the Premier League. No half arsing. Players that aren't good enough for mid table Premier can go. No keeping on championship-at-best level players in case we get relegated.
