shezzas left peg Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Don't know how much roumour and how much truth involved. That said though does seem to fit the bill as the sort of player Steve Bruce seems to like and definitely would have fitted in with his Hull team when he was there,so maybe a hint of hope!!

whatdial Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 He is a big donkey, awful player. Worse than when we signed Andy Pearce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FARGATEOWL Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 From what I've seen of him on BBC Sportscene which is the equivalent of MOTD up there he looks a liability in Hibs back four so wouldn't have thought he was up to Championship standard. Ponderous, poor distribution etc. There are good young defenders up there but not him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hirstys_12th_Pint Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Sounds like the kind of signing needed since Diame bossed the Play Off Final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g-owls Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 He's crap. He was crap at Celtic - A liability waiting to happen. If you weren't keen on Loovens then this bloke will drive you insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not good enough for what we need is my honest take on him. Shocking at Celtic, another dud from the Scottish pub league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edinburghowl Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 He is good for a bombscare moment every now and then but overall Ambrose is a decent if unspectacular defender. Hibs and their fans were desperate to keep him, he had been their best player this season, but I’d want to leave that shitehouse of a club too if I got the chance.

Demi Mitchell was brilliant last season and looked a real find. I was quite surprised we managed to get him back, I thought he’d maybe go to the English Championship or a lower league Premier League team, he was training with the United first team in preseason but he said he enjoyed it, loved Edinburgh and was keen to come back so Levein pushed the boat out and we managed it. He was quick, direct, taking players on, a real threat going forward, scored a few and he linked up well with Walker and Milinkovic out wide. Reasonable at defending too. This season Mitchell has largely been woeful. He looks a shadow of the man from last season and now looks pretty disinterested. He has been one of the worst first team players in our squad. Hard to pick between him and Sean Clare as to who is worse. Hopefully they’ll both come out refreshed and changed after the winter break. They both need it!

He’s a more mature defender to the one that was making several mistakes at Celtic. I think he would be an upgrade on the likes of Van Aken and Hector.

I didn’t realise he was back there, and was someone who I thought might be an option for us. Interesting to hear, he’s dropped off this season, but it does sometimes happen with young players Whenever I’ve watched Hearts this season, I don’t think he’s played, or at least, I hadn’t noticed him Might be one to keep an eye, if he gets his form back. Certainly, your description of him, sounds exactly what we need, on year one’s displays anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly, your description of him, sounds exactly what we need, on year one’s displays anyway The laddie Jimmy Dunne we had on loan from Burnley that has signed at Sunderland for the second half of the season is a cracking looking prospect. A better player than Mitchell I reckon. Hearts are strong at centre back with Christophe Berra and John Souttar (Souttar like Paterson will end up playing in the English Premier League) but Dunne came in and did just as good a job as Souttar (who was injured) alongside Berra. He will have a good career either at Burnley or elsewhere. Composed, strong, dominating, mature personality, decent pace, a very good prospect. If Mitchell rediscovers last years form he will be too and I agree he could be an option for Wednesday in the near future. Bruce needs to sign and upgrade the full backs.
