Gizmo Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 McKenna is strong but a huddie going forward. Can't really grasp why Clarke didn't want Souttar in to provide more options coming out with the ball. "Big lump" wasn't it, well wtf is McKenna?

Kiwidoug Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Yet another inspiring performance. Shouldn't pillory Clarke though. He needs a couple if years and several Hearts players to get things right. Jonno us right about Forest. Hope he's having Hickey nightmares. 16 years old?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is irrefutable. Thus far yes. McGinn has played over 250 games in his career. McTominay has played less than 50. McGinn has been exceptional for Villa.

boag1874 Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Meh 1st half. Badly lacking a CF who can cause the defenders problems. Delivery needs to be better, killer ball is lacking. Forrest in particular has been disappointing. Fraser & Robertson linking really well but not creating any real chances. Midfield ok but need to be more positive on the ball and get further forward. Would bring Armstrong on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kila Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Not enough players getting into the box, midfield a bit anonymous. Left wing play has been good though. Need a change in midfield and up top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samuel Camazzola Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 This would have been the ideal game for a smaller ground like Tynecastle or Easter Road. Hampden is so depressing.
