Naismith and Milinkovic had a great understanding. A couple of those passes into Naismith were sublime. The only player who comes close in relation to through balls in the current squad is Tony McD.

Mr Kipling Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 The performances at the Betfred Cup have been, well, pretty bad to say the least. However, we have qualified for the next round and we did finish top of the league albeit unseeded. The management, IMO, are to blame for these bad performances. They are employed to manage and they have not managed to convince us (the fans) that this team are capable of progressing this season. This is also off the back of last season where we all had the same feeling. I'm convinced that the players are not responding well to what is being asked of them by the management. Its like working for a boss you hate - you do everything you can just to piss him/her off. Herein lies my point. Many people are saying (paraphrasing here): Oh well, when Naismith returns, everything will be fine. Is it really correct to put all our eggs into one basket? what happens if Naismith doesn't return (although I think he will)? what happens if/when he is injured again? He isn't invincible! Currently the Hearts team appear to be on the same track of regression that haunted us last season - I appreciate that it is early in the season but still - it is early for everyone. IMO we certainly cannot rely on Naismith - we need other options - what is Levein et al seriously doing about our midfield and attack? Thoughts?

McCrae Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 We still have time to bring in players. If we don’t sign anyone questions need to be asked. Maybe he can’t due to his budget or is it because he is happy with things? If he is happy with the squad I think it’s time for a change.
