Folk slagging him for goals in the League Cup are the same vevel as teams we struggled to score against this summer. Couldn't make the bench at Rangers. Plus hes a snide. File under snake along with Pressley. No one minded Hartley going to his boyhood club. It's not just about football. After all the support both players got they chose Tynecastle to metaphorically tell us we meant nothing. Snake 1 pumping the Celtic badge Snake 2 pumping the Rangers badge. Weeks after leaving. Snake 1 tried to justify it like a little today rat. Snake 2 doesnt understand what justify means hes just a rat.

That's very possible and think the debt wouldn't exactly be peanuts. He fails to mention that in his interview of course. Think he is a character we could do without at our club plus think his career will go on a pretty quick downward slope. He couldnt raise his training standards with Rangers to get more game time which he admitted so no chance he would do it elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve got Denzel, Uche, Naisy, MacLean, Keena as strikers Then we’d have Walker, Naisy, Mulraney, Meshino, McDonald, Zanatta, Morrison as wingers/attacking mids/forwards, whatever pigeon hole you want to stick them in. 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 seems the way to go.

These players were far superior to Lafferty and didn't need to train very hard because of their abilities. Nothing to do with them having a relationship with Naismith 🙄🙄 Plenty of players in the same team don't like each other. Can almost guarantee there'll be players in the dressing room at Hearts who don't like one another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play from side to side along the back four at pedestrian pace, Berra / Souttar / Bobby then hoof it up to Uche who then engages in a "strongest man" competition before falling on his arse or giving away a free kick.

It's the players confidence that's the issue. I know what your saying. I’m certain like you his instructions aren’t punt it the length of Tynie and hope for the best. What I think he tries to do is play, second ball football. Where we move it forward quickly to the strikers and the midfield push on to pick up the 2nd ball high up the pitch, or play it long to the wings for the wide men to deliver into the box. Problem is teams are wise to it, they squeeze or back 4 and allow Berra to have the ball, he can’t play so he hoofs it every time. Problem 2 occurs because Uche can’t hold the ball up so our midfield get caught in no mans land and our back line is exposed to the counter attack. Its simple to change....get the thing down and pass through the lines and don’t let Berra get isolated and get Uche onto the bench and use him as an impact player till he learns how to control a ball and shoot!

Don’t believe that for a second and Levein intimated that the defence started picking that option that said, the question still has to be asked why the players chose to do that ? If Levein/coaches don’t address, fix it and stop it from happening who will ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
