Hyam is a good player, but I'm a bit confused with the title thread, and your subsequent post. Probably me !
He’s asking why Hyam hasn’t been put in the Scotland squad
It's exactly the opposite. Some don't rate him because of that and they can't forget the Yeovil match despite lots of great performances in the Championship.I think a lot of our fans overrate him because he was with us in League 2.

I'm not sure it is, people give him a lot more slack than other players.

Wasnt just you...what confused me was that he posted it morning stone cold sober.Hyam is a good player, but I'm a bit confused with the title thread, and your subsequent post. Probably me !
I’m generally one of his bigger critics but he’s impressed me last few games. Particularly Luton where he was the only decent CB.
Still got a massive mistake in him though and needs to work on not playing strikers on.
Give it a rest.

All defenders make mistakes, most goals come from defensive errors of different magnitudes.
They do, but there’s varying degrees. Last season Fadz made a few especially early on and has improved. Hyam is improving too but for example against Fulham very nearly cost us a goal losing the ball on the halfway line and has cost us a few goals earlier in the season, mostly with his positioning.
He makes more mistakes in more dangerous positions than Sheaf for example, yet Sheaf gets pelters and Hyam gets ticker tape parades
As I said last few games he’s been impressive defensively and his use of the ball has come on massively. He’s ahead of Rose on merit now IMO.
Fadz has been involved in 4 opposition goals this season.
Although I do think Fulham was a foul.
Fulham was a foul for me. And I assume a couple of others were Luton?
To be honest if we went up or wanted to be top six consistently it would be our CBs I’d be most worried about generally. All great on their day, all capable of an off day like Luton. But for a mid table Championship club they’re fine.
Fact is they are all improving and even fadz. Dont think anyone has had or made more blatant howlers than Fadz (going back to league 1 days Rotherham and pompy away for eg) But hes going to as he is at the heart of everything we do and spends more time on the ball.Fadz has been involved in 4 opposition goals this season.

If the gauge is ‘how will they cope in the prem’ with the exception of maybe one or two, all our players would be suspect…we’re not going up and I don’t want to think about it!!Fulham was a foul for me. And I assume a couple of others were Luton?

Looking at that Scotland defence my word they are different level of crap watching them yesterday. Apart from Robertson of course.

Because he's evidently not cut out for the championship whereas Hyam isWhy doesn't the same apply to Shipley?

As for being a top 6 championship side, if we continue to evolve ie retain the nucleus of this side we’ll be solid for years to come. The old players will get worse, the young players are likely to get better…I’d say Hyam is in this latter group. Hopefully any new players we get will be improvements…as has been for the most part over the last few years.
Without wanting to think too far ahead (I know I am) I’m quite worried for the end of the season. Assuming we don’t go up I think a few could be sold and Robins could be pinched from us.
I probably worry too much and should just enjoy what we’re doing now.

Hyam is a very good player and has been since he came into the team, inevitably at times defenders make mistakes that result in a goal just as strikers miss sitters. Last season there was an anti Hyam campaign on here by some of our “experts”who are quieter now, I’m sure they will stir again though given the chance.
It does because he is massively overrated on hereWhy doesn't the same apply to Shipley?
Where is this coming from? What has he done wrong? Incredible how some unfashionable looking players get worse in some people's eyes when we haven't even played a match.I'm not sure it is, people give him a lot more slack than other players.
