Morgaro Gomis Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Would imagine it will be a youngster. Possibly the boy Mark Russell from Morton? Although for it to "bolster" the squad, I guess it would mean signing now which means an out of contract player. So maybe not him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hungry hippo Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 We only have 3 strikers so that would be the obvious position to fill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC_92 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Apparently he's our new signing. Midfielder. Capped 3 times for the US. http://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/scotsol/homepage/sport/spl/hearts/6970073/Hearts-seal-deal-for-USA-midfielder-Perry-Kitchen.html?CMP=spklr-_-Editorial-_-TWITTER-_-scotsunsport-_-20160302-_-SunScotSport-_-383590474-_-Imageandlink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dat_RPG Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Perry Kitchen. What a name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unknown user Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Kitchen ? capped three times and over 150 appearances for MLS side DC United between 2011-2015 ? interested Belgian giants Anderlecht five years ago. Hearts boss Robbie Neilson and director of football Craig Levein believe they have pulled off a coup in persuading one of the MLS? most effective native stars to commit to the Gorgie outfit.

cosanostra Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 6ft tall, highly athletic defensive midfielder. Can play anywhere across the back line as well. I'm guessing that Pallardo will be leaving at the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmeriDan Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Very interesting. DC United are more or less my "local" MLS club, and he has definitely been one of the club's most highly regarded players over the past few years. Still quite young and has a lot of potential to develop further in his game, but is quite an effective defensive midfielder and passer of the ball. Will be interesting to see how long the deal is, but I see this as being a decent upgrade on Pallardo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unknown user Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Looks like DC United really really wanted him to stay but he was set on a move to Europe. Their mvp a couple of seasons ago and still only 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cosanostra Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Looks like a good signing with great potential to develop and sell. Pallardo has had an awful season so this certainly looks like a key acquisition in a position we've struggled with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmeriDan Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 How is he technically? We assume he's a unit of course Technically, ok. Nothing special in that regard though. Definitely has a presence about him with both his stature and a very physical/tenacious style of play. Likes a tackle and won't get bullied in midfield.

FenderJaguar7 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 There are two reasons I like this video, one of them is it has our new player Perry Kitchen- http://youtu.be/_IIxw6wYExA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hughesie27 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 He was apparently known for his post training discipline. Regularly the last to leave the stadium after a session. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter_hmfc Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 There are two reasons I like this video, one of them is it has our new player Perry Kitchen- http://youtu.be/_IIxw6wYExA So basically we've signed The Stig?

Gershwin Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 He was apparently known for his post training discipline. Regularly the last to leave the stadium after a session. Hopefully he's the kind of guy who leads by example...the kind that drives the team forward with his energy. Quite excited by this signing.

Rab Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Been watching him play for DC United the last few years, one of the best players on a pretty successful team and knocking on the door of a very decent international side.
