'The Rangers thing is something that it would interest me. Absolutely. I have been back more times this season than in the last four or five years. I can see it is going in the right direction. 'Steven has obviously put his authority on the club. The players are playing well, playing with an unbelievable amount of confidence. 'The manager has got it on a playing field where it is competitive and what a hell of a result against Celtic in the last game... 'The tails are up, they have momentum but they know it is going to be a big challenge from now until the end of the season. 'But at the moment there is nothing to it. We are talking up something that is not there but everyone knows I started my career at Rangers, I played in front of 50,000 with the pressure. 'It is something I'd relish and enjoy. I want to play. 'I have played three games for Stoke so it has been frustrating so whoever it may be, I am ready to go and want to contribute.' And there it is That's clearly a response to a question asked specifically about Rangers. The bits in bold suggests he's open to options and his comments in the BBC article talk up Craig Levein.

Mr Rabbit Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) 17 minutes ago, Paolo said: Seems more keen on Rangers though, going by his comments. Agree but admittedly Naismith was probably the same. Was the exact same stories in the press before we brought him in too. Why would Adam want to come to Hearts over Rangers if you’re being honest?! He’s never played for us so doesn’t know the club and would undoubtedly earn more at Rangers. However Levein and the club do very well when they approach players and bring them in and let them know what this club is about and what they’re looking to do. Which is why you have guys like Naismith, Dunne and many others rave about what it’s like to play at tynecastle with the fans and the history.

scotty2442 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Similar to last year with Naismith, I don’t think Rangers would have any interest in Adam just now now, once they sign Davis I think it will be defenders and another striker they will be looking at Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naismith/Uche/Morrison/whoever is playing up front or wide. Anyway, here's footage of him from September playing a one-two, breaking beyond the defence and setting up a goal (01:40); he also set up the first goal (0:58) by making a similar run from midfield. He might be a bit more dynamic than you give him credit for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nookie Bear Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 27 minutes ago, Samuel Camazzola said: I don't recall Keane not adapting to the Scottish game. Pretty much dominated most of the games I recall. In the 3-0 game at Tynecastle after they had clinched the league, he was impressive and you could see how much the result bothered him although several of his teammates looked to have chucked it. Different standards. He quoted in his book about his debut against Clyde in the Scottish Cup where they lost 2-1. Hartson got on the team bus with a can of coke and bag of crisps! ? My recollection of Keane was that he was an anonymous, frustrated figure. And he missed from two yards in that 3-0 game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloustonHMFC Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 This is going to end up another Lafferty situation. 2 year contract with Hearts and away to Der Hun after one season to sit on their bench.

So instead of having him for one season and then potentially getting a few quid, he goes direct to ibrox and benefits them straightaway? If he ends up at rangers...it’s no big deal.

hearts 4 the cup Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Naismith was making similar noises about re-joining rangers when he left Norwich last season and look how that turned out. With Davis pretty much a done deal I’m not sure they’ll look to sign another centre mid coming towards the end of their career. Fingers crossed we can get a deal agreed, Adam would be a cracking signing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
