Mr Elwood P Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 32 minutes ago, JamboBornNBred said: If he was fit and focused i bet he would be playing for a very poor Stoke City right now.He isnt and that says it all. Good player a few years back but the fact he cant get into that side does not fill me with confidence. The English Championship will have plenty players that can’t get a game for their current club but would walk into our starting 11. No logic to state that a player not playing for Stoke has any relevance to whether or not he’d be a success at Hearts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need too read back bud.I never once said he would not walk into our team.I said i had reservations about a guy who cant get into a Stoke City side that are struggling badly.

I was recently watching a Hearts match next to a fan of a very decent Premier side in England, he felt Haring and Naismith were the only 2 players on the pitch anywhere close to that level. Naismith obvious I suppose. People sometimes get bamboozled by numbers. The visual evidence is Haring is a strong and confident player on the ball. Probably have to improve his passing to a more consistent level, but don't be surprised if there is very real interest in this player before too long.

As for Adam, his quality isn't in doubt. I think his application might well be. I'd take him but I'd be wary of giving him a long term deal.

Bazzas right boot Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 3 hours ago, BigAlim said: If we do bring him in then we're setting ourselves up very narrowly imo, you can't drop Djoum or Haring on current form, Adam would be too expensive to sit on the bench and on top of that Cochrane, Lee and even Bozanic are useful players to bring in when they're on it, stark contrast with our wide options who haven't really shown much at all to deserve a start Option 1 would be: _____________Keeper Smith__Souttar__Berra__Garuccio _____Djoum__Haring__Adam ____________Naismith ________Ikpeazu__Vanecek Option 2: ___________Keeper Dikamona__Souttar__Berra Smith__Haring__Adam__Garuccio ____________Djoum ______Naismith__Ikpeazu/Vanecek Option 3: ______________Keeper __Smith__Souttar__Berra__Garuccio Morrison__Haring__Adam__Mitchell _________Naismith__Ikpeazu Could go on forever tbh, it's good to have options but for me I think wide areas are the ultimate priority, God knows how we'll set up if Lee or Clare hit form or if Dunne returns but at the end of the day any XI with wide players in it isn't our best and that's a bit of a problem imo Need to let us know who our ne goalie is? Great name, tho. Thankfully he isn't a striker. You have a point tho. I think we'd be looking at a 352, imo Lee is the most likely to be dropped for Adam in that case. Haring, Djoum, Adam Central is a very good midfield. Lee/ Bozanic and Harry also options. Plenty cover, plenty ways to mix it up. But, as you say unless we get quality in the wb or winger we could be narrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
