A_A wehatethehibs Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Hearts have struggled badly in front of goal all season, and we’ve had big semi final and now a final against Celtic. Selling Lafferty and thinking we had enough to cope with his loss with the likes of Maclean and Vanacek ( ??? )was a decision which has been PROVEN wrong, we had the player under contract and had no obligation to sell to Rangers. A proven terrible call from Levein and Budge and they deserve to be called out on it no matter if the player trying to push through a move. The paltry 6 figure sum of money was not worth it. Some said “brilliant business from Budge, can’t believe our luck getting £500k for our top scorer”. What’s that cash bought us, Clare and Wighton? PISH would rather have kept Lafferty, let him throw his toys out the pram, he would have got over it. I feel sorry for him as his move has gone exactly the way every Hearts fan predicted. Lafferty could have had the best year of his career this season at Hearts if he’d put his mind to it. Unfortunately in my opinion the ship has now sailed in terms of Laffs career so we won’t see him back at Hearts. This year was the year we should have kept him and then sent him on his way up the M8 as a free agent this summer. Who knows he might have had even 2 cup winners medals in his pocket. Certainly we’d have had a better chance at Murrayfield with big Lafferty coming on instead of Danny Amankwaa. At least we’ll have Uche Power for Hampden. For this summer, Hearts need to plan ahead for the future, IMO Lafferty will not be the same player any more, let him sit there and take a wage from Rangers. That’s what he wanted.

Mental. 100% this, our goal difference of -5 shows that we need someone who can score goals and he’s proven it at this level. I’d rather Lafferty than some nobody from abroad who can’t adapt to the league. Let’s be honest if Levein is staying his signing record is a hit or a miss and we know what we will get with Lafferty so it’s a safe option.

AlphonseCapone Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 We must be the worst set of fans for wanting players or managers we've already had. Every season folk are desperate to get old players back. Move on like. Also folk acting like cause he scored 19 goals when he was here that season, the best season of his life, means he'll be a profilic goal scorer if he comes back, after barely kicking a ball and being a year older. Madness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manny1874 Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 If we have room in the budget for a player of Lafferty's calibre, then I would rather it was spent on a creative midfielder or wide players.

It's lack of trust in our scouting network tbh and the realisation that 19 goal a season strikers really are rare, coupled with the fact that some players fit in at clubs and some don't. Doesn't matter a **** what we think as supporters anyway since we have zero bearing on the scouting/transfers anyway. But if your inference is that we seek comfort in the familiar, then I'll raise you Wighton AND Vanacek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weegie jambo Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Lets be clear, we all know Lafferty is not the sharpest tool in the box and he no doubt had his dream of returning to his hero's and making an impact, but to be honest that was never going to happen with the set up at Rangers. He was well managed (given his off field problems and lack of brain cells) at Hearts by Austin and CL and in return he gave us 19 goals in what turned out to be one of the most productive seasons in his career. I have no doubt if he returned that he could be handled in such a way that he would feel wanted and valued and once again start knocking them in. Despite the baggage and being a Hun d*** I think he could do a job for us again. It's a yes from me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
