*****Official Dundee Hibs v The Champions Match Thread*****

[McEwan's Lager 30,522]

A few players off it again concentration wise, but Lundstram really needs to step it up and offer more. Looks like he's only happy to play a 5 yard pass back to whoever has passed it to him at the moment and we can't be accepting that.

From his early performances I don't see how he fits into our system or style.

Press us and get right in out face seems to be the tactic against us this year and its causing us problems. Need to be brave and keep passing. 

Teams can't sustain that so being patient and keeping a clean sheet are important.  Away games after Euro midweek away are always tough - might need to change it up at 60mins go two up top and more direct. 

 

That and the pressure from the stands....

[writingranger 1,413]

Need to be quicker and more inventive going forward.

With a beard and slick back hair 😩

[southcoastbear 1,639]

Lundstram for Roofe or Itten an drop Aribo into midfield.

Be a bit more positive  maybe

[Jakes Pal 5,575]

The fast start from them put us on the back foot and we have not been able to get off it. Hopefully see a difference second half, although the lack of pace and the lack of the swift one touch movement we have witnessed so far is not promising.

You can see every away game being like this. Guarantee these fuckers don’t put in the same effort against celtic 

Usual from the mulgrews of the world, trying like fuck for the dregs, need to get about them this second half, get an early goal wind daft charlie up and get him sent off. Easy peasy.

Guy doesnt look fit to me , seems to want to get rid of the ball as soon as he gets it.....

[stuart1994 4,303]

Early on but still yet to see anything from Lundstram

[andyhrfc 2,242]

Confident we will win this, they will sit deeper and deeper, need to watch out for the counter.  They are putting alot of energy in and will tire in the last 15-20.  

[RWB72 1,525]

Sitting in well to be fair to them we just need a bit of magic in the middle of park, Hagi would have been perfect

I thought we were bringing him in to replace arfield as the link player between Midfield and attack.

Instead it’s like buying Ryan Jack off wish so far.

But Hibs had 2k at Motherwell last week as someone pointed out, so is it down to the club’s preference rather than, and I use this loosely, current law or guidance?

Motherwell’s decision I think, Dundee United never had enough to give to all their season ticket holders, no chance any away fan was getting a ticket

Probably because we hadn't won a trophy of relevance in a near decade. 

We have just pissed the league undefeated, in the CL qualifiers and in the 2nd game of the league folk are calling our players embarassing, shite and all sorts. 

We have been all over United. 

No we’ve not

Stop biting please

[SkylineBlue 23,351]

Pretty poor half but get the first goal and we'll settle.

[EMRFC 4,780]

Crazy how people still don’t have belief in this team after what they did last season… the goal will come ffs it’s not like we played like Pep’s Barcelona every game last season

[NitshillBear 1,455]

Wright for Lundstram, Aribo into the middle and start passing and moving. Taking too many touches.

Hopefully. They didn’t play like this last season that’s for sure.

Roofe is not here today due to family reasons

[RDB14 2,760]

I reckon they have shot their load and we will come out and win 2-0.  Glad I wasn't following this thread so far, so many over reactions.  They haven't created a clear chance, as long as we keep defending well then we will get chances.  Lundstram needs to move the ball faster and forward.

He looks like an expensive version of Ross McCrorie without the energy at the moment.

Exactly let’s see them keep the same intensity for a full 90 without getting caught on the break
