Michael Smith with Brandon or Godinho or the young academy right back as understudy. Repeat this throughout the team so the young lads step in when the experienced player is sidelined. Of course this only works if the players are of the requisite quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using the youngsters is fine by me but you still need backup for when they need taken out the team. 2 midfielders a left back and keeper.

Big Moysey Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 One thing clear from watching yesterday is that we are seriously lacking in midfield quality, specifically experience, controlled aggression and playmaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s been the same for about 5 years we have always played with 2 defensive midfielders and a centre mid on one of the wings. We have needed wingers and a midfielder that dictates the game but Levein will never play that style. He is more worried about his centre midfielders winning second balls than creating chances Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch41 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 If Levein thinks we're ok with our midfield he really needs a reality check. We are crying out for 2 players one a forward passing central midfielder and a right sided midfield/winger. We have Wighton & McLean surplus to requirements and Djoum & Lee leaving. This is a season we need to make a big challenge for trophies and not be toiling for a lack of midfielders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We absolutely don’t need to get a left back. We’ve got White, Hickey and Garuccio! We can also play a 3-5-2 with Mulraney as a wing back or play Bobby Burns there if all other options are unavailable. If we bring in another left back, we wont see Hickey for years. He will just leave to sit on the bench at an English club, getting much more money at the first opportunity. Midfield is definitely the priority. Bryson & Adam would have been ideal but we’ve either not gone for or missed out on both. The much maligned Djoum is going to end up like the much maligned Robbie Neilson, appreciated when he’s no longer here! Goalkeeper is a strange one. Zlamal is good but has the odd error in him. Doyle had 5 or 6 shut outs when in goals but had an absolute disaster at Motherwell and had a few very dodgy moments. We have young Stone breaking through. If we sign another keeper when will we get to see him? Craig Gordon was 18 or 19 when he broke through. Stone will be that age when Zlamal’s contract ends. Gordon in and Doyle out would be ideal but doesn’t seem to be on currently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a natural thing with supporters and I'm sure every manager feels the same. When you have too many of one position and not enough of another it causes problems. It's really down to the manager and in our case Levein has been Hearts manager long enough to get a balanced side on the pitch. The last thing all Jambos will want to hear is more excuses. The squad is short in midfield and wide right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch41 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 (edited) Hearts tracking an 18 year old Nigerian winger who can score goals. He's with Everton and Hearts want him on loan for a year. Edited July 7, 2019 by mitch41 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Class of 75 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 (edited) Following yesterday's result I hope I am wrong but I reckon we need atleast 6 players to add something to the team. We were beaten yesterday by a semi pro team and only had one shot on target excluding the goal. Also looking at the team selection, Edwards was played at Right Back with Dikamona on the bench. It was a flat back 4 so he wasn't looking to play wing backs. I know yesterday was a friendly and not competitive but worrying signs again Edited July 7, 2019 by Class of 75 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amadjambo Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 I’m disappointed that we haven’t signed a decent goalkeeper. Bobby isn’t a good enough first choice keeper IMO. Would be happy if we signed Mulumbu for midfield. Looked a very decent player for Killie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricardo Shillyshally Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 In the short term we need a goalie, but maybe the big picture is to wait for Stone to mature. We have several players with potential. If they can all progress then we could be decent, however that probably won't happen and we'll end up with a season of mediocrity, interspersed with some highs and lows.
