Hibs 2-1 Ross County

[1875STEVE]

Think we deserved that, battled quite well and created quite a few chances.

Still think we need a predator in the window.

Creative midfielder and predator in the window and id be delighted.

Marciano - 6 - Got a hand to their goal, don't think he could have stopped it. Has taken a battering lately, and think he looked shaky, but did ok.

Ambrose - 6 - Don't like him at RB. Few scary moments, still think he should play midfield.

McGregor - 7 - Good to have him back, won quite a few headers, gaining match fitness all the time.

Hanlon - 7 - Solid as per, had a few mazy runs forward.

Stevenson - 7 - Thought he was really good today, well played son.

Barker - 7 - Drifts in and out of games, which is really annoying, as when he is on form, he is unplayable. Posted missing for most of the game, just as I was discussing getting him and Shaw off as it wasn't working, both combined for the winner.

McGinn - 6 - poor from SJM today, looks jaded to me??

McGeouch - 8 - Brilliant, the guy can pick a pass from 70 yards away, he played two players in with sublime balls, both missed golden oppertunites (Stokes and Boyle).

Boyle - 6 - Started well, faded, but battled away,should have scored.

Stokes - 8 - Between him and McGeouch for MOM, scored good goal.

Shaw - 7 - It would have been a 6 if he hadn't grabbed the winner, played ok but faded badly IMO, then pops up with the winner. This laddie will score goals though.

Subs:

Bartley - 2 - don't think he touched the ball.

A welcome 3 points, especially with Sevco and Sheep losing and Hearts drawing.

Ambrose - 6 - Don't like him at RB. Few scary moments, still think he should play midfield. Agree give me the heebie jeebies when he tries to take to long to distribute the ball.

McGregor - 7 - Good to have him back, won quite a few headers, gaining match fitness all the time.

Hanlon - 7 - Solid as per, had a few mazy runs forward.

Stevenson - 7 - Thought he was really good today, well played son.

McGinn - 7- maybe not one of his best games but still puts in a bundle of work and deserves a 7

McGeouch - 8 - Brilliant, the guy can pick a pass from 70 yards away, he played two players in with sublime balls, both missed golden oppertunites (Stokes and Boyle).

Boyle - 6 - Started well, faded, but battled away,should have scored. yep especially when Stokes picked him out I suppose if he had that bit more composure there would be a queue of clubs after him.

Stokes - 8 - Between him and McGeouch for MOM, scored good goal. Agree had a really good game and looked up for it. just do that at Swinney Stokesy

Shaw - 7 - It would have been a 6 if he hadn't grabbed the winner, played ok but faded badly IMO, then pops up with the winner. This laddie will score goals though. Think Lennon is right to persist with him and could have had a goal in the first half but chose to pass the ball to \stokes who was in a more difficult position.

Bartley - 2 - don't think he touched the ball.

Changed one or two steve but overall was pleased with the performance mind you I thought there wasn't a lot in it when they had the ball in the net for the second time.
