Agreed. I don’t think Johnson makes it either tbh. We don’t seem to be a club that produces top class defenders from what I recall off the top of my head. Using the exception that Micky Gray was a converted winger, the best defender we’ve produced in my lifetime is probably Dickie Ord. We seem to do best out of picking up lads who’ve aged out of elite academies. Suspect we’ll continue in that vein going forward.
Came on as sub to score. He wasn't even getting on the bench in previous games so good to see some progress.
Signed as a promising 20 year old in League One when we didn’t have much money to spend. He was okay but never making it at championship level
'Hibs extended their unbeaten league run to a staggering 17 straight games with a comfortable 4-0 home win over Dundee, as David Gray’s men matched a club record set way back in 1948.' CM NectarTriantis 7/10 An unusual sort of a game for the big Sunderland loanee, who showed plenty of impressive touches without ever dominating in a creative sense. Still a more than solid performance. | SNS Group please log in to view this image
This is a loan which may work out for us. If we stay in this division,he could be really useful for us next season.
Someone asking if he could be Dan Neil's replacement if we don't go up. Triantis strikes me more as a Jobe type of player than a Dan Neil. Hibs fan likening him to John McGinn before he went to Villa. If he is, we've got another gem on our hands.
Looking forward to getting a proper look at him in pre season, would like to think if we’re in the championship he’s capable of atleast fighting for a place
Assist for Aouchiche today in a 3-5 win at Norwich. Good performance as well according to Pompey fans, heavily involved in most attacks. Glad he's doing well.
I doubt it will even be considered by RLB, but with no effective wingers at the club, he needs to go to a 4/4/2 after Monday,s game and stick to it.
Unsure what i'd be doing to be honest but the wide areas are huge issues currently. Mayenda is probably the best fit winger currently but he happens to also be the best striker!
I like the look of Triantis, he's a mix of Neil's ability with Hume's controlled aggression, in Jobe's body, but faster. Definitely someone to bring back in after the loan and see where he fits in.
