Jocam2325 Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 I think Makela is rubbish but wat do I know, I was pleased when we signed Jeremy Goss!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drylaw Hearts Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 My opinion of Makela hasn't changed after his appearence yesterday. Mince. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeeToonJambo Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 I quite fancy that front two for next week as well, Mole has been doing really well in the reserves and think he could surprise one or two if he played. I agree. He looks sharp in the reserves and wins most headers, unlike some other, taller, front players (even Larry won a header today!!!). Mole links well with Glen.

ecjambo Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Posters here judge players far too quickly. He looked ok yesterday, got involved and was unlucky with a couple of attempts. Overall well done Juho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dodemac Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 This isnt a downbeat thread, given that we won today. However, would like to categorically state that Juho Makela is not good enough to play for Hearts. He can control the ball, he has no pace, he has no awareness, and he couldnt score with an open goal during warm up. If today has proved one thing, it is that Makela should never play for Hearts again, and should be one of the first out the door in the summer. I fully expect this to happen. It was good of Frail to let the supporters see this for ourselves. utter rubbissh he tried hard and his pace is ther for all to see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambo Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 For being brought in from the cold i thought Makela did okay yesterday. Got into good positions and chased things. Would like to see him and Glen given a few games together till the end of the season with Nade and Mole as back-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest u01dg3 Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 I honestly cant see how people could think Makela was "alright" yesterday. Granted he only had 25 mins or so, but he was useless. I wanted him to be good, I really did. I think too many people on here are hoping that we have a saviour within the ranks who will score the goals. Sitting in the Gorgie stand, I had a good view of what he did on and off the ball. In my opinion he has wasted up too much of the resources at Hearts over the last few years and should go. I also cant understand why people are saying "his pace was there to see". Can this person point to a piece of play or time when we saw this "pace" yesterday? He was pushed off the ball and beaten to the ball on a number of occasions by the St Mirren defence. Finally, to the person that said that Kingston was greedy. I believe that this can be explained by the fact that Kingston obviously recogised Makela's failings. If we had a striker who Kingston actually had faith in to pass too he may well have done. Passing the ball to Makela would have been as useful as a c@ck flavoured lolly pop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gigolo-Aunt Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 The Flying Finn being a good player or not has sailed now. Yesterday him playing was obviously a case of putting him in the shop window. He will be away come the close season. Even if its Hearts giving him a pay off to speed up the move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecjambo Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Too quickly !!!!!!!!! He's been here for more than 2 frickin years. He has never been given a chance. He has started a handful of games so how can you judge him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K1874M Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Understand we need to put players in the shop window but if we have, as a club no intentions of playing Makela next season I dont want to see him get the chance.. Lets at least try and blood some youngsters we're wanting to hold on to and see how they fair up before it time for summer holidays! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N User Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Makela looked ok and certainly deserves a chance from the start. As for no pace, he looked fast as ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The People's Chimp Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Makela is the son of two Finnish Olympic sprinters and can himself to do the 100 metres in a sub 11 second time, I'm afraid the credibility of your whole post falls down on that one nonsensical statement. I thought he looked sharp and lively, nearly scored twice and if Mole had crossed half a second earlier towards the end, would have bagged another goal to maintain his record of more than a goal a start in a Hearts shirt. You're spot on. One really has to wonder about posts such as the OP's. What game was he at? what tenuous grip on reality does he have? Utterly bizarre.

jack D and coke Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Dont agree with that mate, thought he was awful. Players like Kingston and Glen were doing work around him and he was hoping to gain from their actions. Never happened for him today, and I doubt if he'll get another opportunity. Thats kind of what strikers do mate, no one said he was the next lionel messi or anything. I hate people like you who can't wait to critisize a player you've barely ever seen. You clearly know jack sh*t about football. Give the guy a break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As he's been here 2 years and never managed to win a regular place in the squad. He's been on loan and done nothing and not a single Club has wanted him badly enough to actually bid for him. No Manager/Coach has rated him since got here. And yet out of all that YOU still think there is a player there ? I'm afraid it's you who appears to know jack crap.

DH, I think we all know that ability or otherwise has had nothing to do with his inability to win a place in the squad. If he was of Lithuanian parentage he'd have been a regular.

VR never liked him from the begining. That is common knowledge. Then VR wanted No.28 in the team and with Brellier leaving it made it easy for them to exclude Brellier. Elliot Mole Nade Glen all now appear to be ahead of Makela. Not a Lithuanian amongst them. He is ranked amongst the worse players at the Club and only played yesterday to put him in the Shop window.

I don't think we'd be difficult to deal with. We've signed an absolute dud and everyone appears to realise this apart from a select few Hearts supporters.

Spellczech Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 He?s more of a threat than either Mole or Elliot as far as I can see. Always looks keen enough too when given rare opportunities. I felt before the Killie game that we would need a midfielder to score if we were to win that one, and so it proved. I think Makela and Glen are a far better option than either Mole or Elliot.

tynie_legend Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 I thought he done well when he came considering the lack of 1st team action. I thought both him and Glen took up much better positions, worked the hard down the channels and looked like they had a bit about them. All attributes which Nade certainly doesn't have! Elliot and Nade have both had a run in the team this season and have returned very little IMO. I think Glen must keep the shirt for next week and why not give Makela a go for the remaining fixtures?!
