Win against a team that's been a bogey team for a while and leapfrogging Hibs. Three teenagers in the team with two changing the game for us is also notable. Totally forgettable performance mind you, from both teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem, maybe I was just trying to imagine that something else could have been written but wasn't, so I just invented what wasn't there.

Tasavallan Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Statistically Hearts were dominant. Saints were rather poor. The defence is coming along nicely, Levein just needs to get them scoring more goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sexton Hardcastle Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Need to improve for next weeks huge games. However, we will play a lot better than that this season and not win so it's good grafting. See the Aberdeen game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jock _turd Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 The result is always the measure but what I want to see is a team giving all they can to try to win the game. You will always get games that are less than a spectacle it happens quite often especially when teams try not to lose a game but coming away from these games should make the team stronger in the end. We seam to lack quality players but if we can weather the storm and get to a point where we can strengthen the team to make up this deficiency all the better. I have said it before and will say it again I would far rather have a decent player who really wants to play for the club than a player who is highly rated playing for the club while looking to get away from the club.

Should we be expecting more from these games?

Debut 4 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Some of the final balls today, more in the first half, were woeful. This is where Walker and Milinkovic stood out because they brought thoroughness and a bit quality the few times we got them on the ball. It improved in the 2nd half. Over and above that I'm starting to feel more comfortable about the team though. Theres much more dig, workrate, team spirit and assuredness that stems from the unity we see that the team is developing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some on here agree but won't be seen to articulate it for fear of being branded "negative" or "a Hobo" etc etc. Sadly a good poster (despite the fact I don't always agree with him) like Jammy T is indicative of one who responds given his perception of the poster more often than the point the poster is actually making. It happens to me continually too but cest la vie! Its not going to stop me making valid points. Today, like last week, ended with us gladly winning the 3pts. Great stuff. However it does not tell the picture of 2 very mediocre, disjointed and lacklustre performances. Did I expect us to suddenly start playing a swashbuckling style of football, score loads of goals and take the league by storm? No, not at all and us being better organized and more difficult to beat is a good sign and start. The fact is though we are short in many areas and have a very poor midfield indeed, one of the worst I can remember. When there is debate about choosing between an over the hill Bauben and a 16 year old for a huge derby game you know the squad is extremely weak. Pointing out how bad recruitment is and how lacking in left sided players (as one example) is not negative its simply reality. Suggesting we start games in a slow, pedestrian manner is not critical but reality. Having concern that these things will come home to roost in the next week is not extreme pessimism but what is blatantly obvious! I hope we stand up to be counted on Tuesday and that the team give the fans the performance AND result we deserve but I can't say I'm not worried about our prospects on all recent evidence.

I don’t care if on the face of it St Johnstone shouldn’t be a difficult game. It is and has been for us for years and for most of the rest of the SPL including Celtic Its really quite simple.

AlphonseCapone Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 3 hours ago, Ray Gin said: Cochrane, while not doing anything particularly special, was certainly impressive for his age and at least looked a bit more switched on than Buaben whose was caught unacceptably daydreaming in possession twice. Think it's still a wee bit early for him though, he still looks like a strong wind could blow him over. Once he bulks up a bit over the next couple of years he could be some prospect. Ideally need Cowie and Djoum back in the middle ASAP. Agree he is still not there physically. One thing that stood out for me was when he had the ball in the middle of the park with a St. J midfielder in front of him and he played a nice wee dinked pass over the player to one of our players. It showed an immense amount of intelligence and confidence. I have high hopes for his future, hopefully we nurture him right. I feel like an old man at 29 when these guys come on and I'm all proud as punch at the young guys living the dream. Where did the years go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bootzilla Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 It's like we've been used to silky soccer for the past few years and people are surprised that it's not Brazil. It's always been cloudy with bright periods, a battle of wills with some flashes of skill and quality - it was the same yesterday. We turn up and support the team and look for improvements - signs that we'll see more of the good stuff - we're showing character that was missing last season. I thought Milinkovic looks as if he could be excellent, a bit of a terrier, once he gets a few more games under his belt. Central midfield is that piece of the jigsaw that's missing.
