Loan signings

[Panchohfc]

Aluko and Walker are on loan at Aberdeen and that wee guy Kissock on loan at Gretna.
With wot i've seen they look like really good young players and i would take them on loan at Easter Road.
How come Hibs cant get players like that?
hmmm

Do you think Hibs couldn't have got these Players had they wanted them?

I don't think we're desperate enough to require taking players on loan who are no better than the youngsters at our own Club.

Suppose you've got a point but after seeing them i think it would be good for us to take a risk and loan in some of the young players from the premiership!
Look what Stokes done for Falkirk?

The majority of the benefit goes to the loanee though i.e. Hibs would take a player for a season maybe to score a few goals or put in some good performances, and all it does is bump his price up so the loanee can sell them.

As stated before, I think the first team time is better spent blooding some new youngsters.

Why improve other team's players when we can let our talented youngsters gain more experience when required.

The loan deals both Aberdeen, Gretna and previously Falkirk have all made are short-term stop gaps IMHO.

Dont see the point in us loaning players, we have imo a talented squad that just needs motivated to get the best out of..

.. saying that ive heard that we tried to get you know who on loan from smeltc till the end of he season?

They are taking players they cant afford to buy to prop up weak squads due to financial constraints,we dont fall into either category ,even though we have the tightest and maybe brightest fecker in charge.

I would be rather dismayed if Hibernian had to start loaning in young players from average premiership clubs in order to improve our squad. I've not seen 1 yet, who imo, is better than any of our own youngster's!

Plus, by taking a loan signing on board, your squad wont gel aswell. If he becomes a pivitol member of the team, like Stokes and the boy Kissock, then when they eventually leaves, there will be an enormous hole in your tream.

Falkirk seem to be a club who deal in alot of lones, especially when it comes to goalkeepers, perhaps thats why despite playing well they never seem to make the top 6?
