Are you satisfied with our season? The players we have signed are not going to be replacing the current ones when we’ve had a poor season. We all have our opinions and mine in that both players will be bit part players. You seemed to think they’ll be the opposite. Have you seen the play JA? 

 

I haven’t which pretty much sums it up too me. Hopefully CL is bulking up the squad with these signings as they are not going to give the first 11 headaches.

 

Opinions.

You haven't seen them play but you're willing to condemn them.  Is that fair?.

I have seen McLean many times but Ikpeazu only on youtube.  I shall wait and see before pronouncing judgment and I suggest you do the same instead of mouthing off without substance.

Ikpeazu I haven’t seen. However he comes from a place and has a track record that suggests he’ll be in Leveins mind to be a starter. Might work big time. Might fail. As long as Lafferty hangs around we can afford an ikpeazu signing. McLean on the other hand, is a stupid and unnceccasry signing who’s arrival does the opposite of its intention. I.E. sends the wrong message to the likes of Keena, Currie and Morrison. They won’t get a chance ahead of him and that’s stunting their development not helping it. They don’t need mentors, they need a chance. We’ve signed a babysitter for kids who have been shaving for 5 years. Totally counterproductive IMO.

I resist from challenging fellow Hearts supporters and certainly from being abusive towards them but how can you possibly know all that?

 

I think it is unlikely in the extreme that McLean will ensure that the youngsters never get a chance.

Now come on now, don't be talking that sort of sense on here.

 

Folk will either say hes here to play 10-15 games as a pish striker, or to coach the laddies because what they need is a pish strikers advice.

 

Win-win for everyone who plays us.

Ikpeazu might work or might not.  So what's your point.?  That applies with every signing but in this case he would seem to provide a bit of pace, bulk and height so it's maybe worth a try, bearing in mind we can't afford Harry Kane

Re stifling the youngsters' progress, do know there looks like there will be reserve football next season where McLean can help bring on them on a dn secondly CL has already hinted he'll be using McLean sparingly, probably from the bench

Secondly how do you know the 3 you mentioned will be with us anyway.  We may have plans to loan them out for game time?

You seem to building all your negativity on assumptions.

Why we even keep discussing(speculating) it...

 

The same guys mentioned love dropping in speculative nonsense like this to fuel their anti Hearts agenda. Unfortunately the hard of thinking swallow it and it becomes established fact.

 

I'm glad to see them getting called out for it now.

Problem Levein has on this is that he asked Budge to commit to this particular player on a 42 month contract 

 

Martin will be a higher earner in the squad. Much the same as Oshinawa. For neither to play a single minute of first team football in an entire season whilst fit and available is staggering 

 

There is not another club in the league who have not played one of their highest paid players in a whole season 

 

Some logic that. Strange times in all fairness. You are correct about highest paid players. It's like Rodwell at Sunderland in some aspects.

MacLean couldn’t get into the Saints team and their bottom half. YouTube clips are a defining platform to judge someone’s talent. I was far from mouthing off just expressing my thoughts that these players aren’t going to pull up trees.

Most sensible people will also wait until then before proclaiming any of these signings, or potential signings, are anything other than poor. 

 

Folk shouting “ANDY ROBERTSON” every time we are linked with some lower league player is not a Winning Argument either. It’s clutching at straws to extreme levels.

I remember, not too long ago we signed another guy from St Johnstone who averaged less than 30 games with season with them, scoring only 8 goals and he didn't turn out too badly, did he?  His name was Paul Hartley.  He managed to pull up a few trees. Some players just suit some clubs and not others.

Instead of mouthing off negatively, why don't you just wait and see how they perform before condemning them.

 

BTW I didn't say YouTube is or isn't a defining platform.  I said that was the only time/way i had seen Ikpeazu.  Unlike you, I'll watch him first before making a meaningful judgment.

I’m not going to judge this fella, I’m willing to give him a chance but he’s hardly a wow signing. MacLean and the ones we’ve been linked with so far I’m not having. I’m not going to wait and see what they can do only to realise that what I immediately thought has come true.  Paul Hartley and MacLean in the same sentence are you going a bit senile buddie?

Academies will always be limited though it might be a concern certain positions eg pacey wingers (and good defenders) seem to be lacking a bit.

Definitely not.  My psychiatrist says I'm in good nick.

You're not going to judge this fella?! I think you already have!

I think you're backtracking a bit now that you've been pulled up and your earlier post mentioned 2 players we have not even signed.

Because someone disagrees with you, you very rudely accuse them of being senile and a happy clapper.  Total ignorance.

Oh no it doesn't work like that on here, according to the kickback experts. He's too old so apparently it automatically makes him a crap signing.

 

On a more serious note, very pleased for the guy, and I'm sure he will be good backup for us (which is why he was signed)
