goldiebackwash1985 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 In hindsight not taking Sow back was prehaps a bad choice! I know he wasnt fit during his medical but would he have been first choice? He would have been a squad player he could have had the time to recover and up to speed! We got Clare in who was not ready but still went ahead I would bring back Dario Zanatta as cover until Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTT Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Looking at the free transfer market I'd take: CB :- Wollscheid or Huth - Both would save the day, lets not **** about. CF :- Márkó Futács. Not a clue any of their fitness situations but they'd do a job Seriously though, we're ****ed. I'm extremely worried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just, er, keep him away from the chips Seriously, if we could get him match fit we'd have a very handy player to have on the bench. His careers on its arse and I thought that was part of our plan as a club, take players who have obvious talent and try and get them back on track.

MoncurMacdonaldMercer Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 djoum on his day (I know) can easily play the haring role to a similar level - in fact if there's any point in djoum still being at the club it's now woukdnt be my preferred option but is one alongside the options of Hughes clevid smith at cb tons of options upfront including whigton and mulraney both of whom are unknown quantities so might as be as good as some expect to be as bad at very low cost if possible I'd give zeefuik a chance if he's free as mentioned as another option more massive setbacks could have been fatal were it not for our very decent squad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t get me wrong, If there’s one available that can come in and do a job for us then by all means get him in. We’ve gave Hughes another contract to fill that role ?

red Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Was really interesting interview SN had, he clearly went on about the importance of match sharpness and how last season he was pretty average (albeit still good) and this season with some more fitness and match sharpness he is twice the player....any free agents ain’t gonna cut it imo. Take them at least 6-8 weeks to get sharp as we are seeing with Sean Clare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haring can play there , Michael Smith can play there aswell Did you see Haring dropping back to CB away to Dunfermline? he was terrible and that is why he got so many bookings at he previous club because they played him there and it is not his best position. I was quite impressed with the two Dunfermline CB's and I noticed that one of them was in the Scotland Under 21 Squad. I know we are talking about signings we could use now but I would be looking to try and get this young lad from Dunfermline on a premanent deal in January.

No idea on either count and you know full well that even if I took a guess you would immediately dispute it. I did read however that AB did say that she would do all she could to try and bring players in during the January transfer window shoudl CL want any. I would have thought though that given our relationship with Dunfermline and the fact we have two players out on loan with them then they may not be too hard to deal with assuming CL wanted the player and we could afford it.

Tasavallan Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 It surprises me the number of members on here that have difficulty understanding Levein's quote of: "We are also planning to go on with the squad we have." According to the website we have a total of 5 CBs plus Smith and Haring, who can play at CB, plus Baur and Hamilton from the reserves. Defence should not be an issue. 14 fixtures until the January window opens and Vanecek arrives. Goal scoring may prove to be the problem. May need to draft in Morrison, Zanatta, Currie or Keena into the 1st team squad as cover. Neither Naisy or McLean are traditional CFs so Levein will need to adopt different tactics to suit. Getting Morrison/Mitchell to the bye-line and then cutting the ball back may be the way to go. Hearts will cope without Uche. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
