OUR MAN TELLS HIBS HERO WE NEED TO SEE BEST OF YOU ALL THE TIME

Elie can't veer from bad to brilliant if he wants to lift club

- TAM McMANUS

THERE was a guy at Dunfermline back in the day called Adam Hammill.

He was a wide player on loan from Liverpool and there were occasions in training when I thought he was the best player I've shared a dressing room with - out of this world, ability to die for and pace to burn.

From one day to the next he went from the best ever to wondering how on earth he was a professional footballer, never mind being at Liverpool or getting a game for the Pars.

Adam crossed my mind when I watched Elie Youan stink out Tynecastle with his first-half display before turning it on and scoring twice to rescue a point for Hibs last weekend.

The potential is there and it's down to him to fulfil it. He's still only 24 and it's all ahead of him.

Youan will either make Hibs £5million or not a single penny.

From one game to the next he goes from class act to chump. He hardly touched the ball in the first half against Hearts and must have been on the verge of being hooked. But it was night and day after the interval.
