Canadian International Junior Hoilett JOINS Hibernian FC!

Absolutely buzzing about this as a Canadian Hibee. We’ve been in massive need of attacking reinforcements this offseason so Hoilett should be huge for us with his playmaking ability if he stays fit. He’ll likely see most of his minutes on the wing as either a starter or super sub, with Youan linked away and other wingers in the squad underperforming last season. In terms of set pieces I’d definitely expect him to be a cut above our current takers which is usually Newell or Boyle atm. I’ve waited years to see another 🇨🇦 at Hibs, didn’t expect it to be a player of Hoilett’s calibre

Wow that is absolutely incredible for you then! Do you think after his time with Aberdeen that he should be a starter for Hibs or with his age be more rotational in your system? Yeah Hoilett is top class on set pieces should be a great add definitely just in terms of a dead ball. Yeah of course I am sure you would've expected it to be type of player of Paton quality not like Hoilett hahaha

He'll do well in the SPL hope he can handle the weather

exciting season ahead for many Canadians in Scotland!

Wish him luck. Didnt see much left in the tank last year at the Whitecaps. Hence why they passed on signing him. Still has the skill just not the legs

[@ontherise-]

Completely agree! Still has lots to offer if used it the right position and right tactical setup.
