Hearts feeling the pressure - Levein

FT: Heart of Midlothian 2-3 Motherwell

Hearts manager Craig Levein says his players are feeling the pressure after Motherwell kept them without a league win this season and bottom of the table.

Angry fans gathered to call for his dismissal after today's defeat, with a massive Edinburgh derby against struggling rivals Hibernian looming next Sunday.

"Sometimes the pressure gets to people in different ways," Levein told BBC Scotland. "One of the ways is they don’t show for the ball as often as they should do, which then leaves the player on the ball with less options."

 

THEY ARE PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALLERS AND IT IS YOUR JOB TO COACH THEM THROUGH PRESSURE SITUATION. YOU HAVE FAILED...GOODBYE!!!

Wonder if he mentioned how hard they'd been working on defending this week. He's embarrassing the club and further humiliates himself with his media tripe as the weeks go on

Doh!!  His job!

He has demotivated squad  with his stubborn favouritism towards Clare, Djoum amongst others.

Ruined Demi Mitchell last season.

Shameful and unsurprising at this moment.

I’m sure he’ll fix this. Just like he was going to fix the defending easily enough but we still managed to lose a goal from a free header at a corner.

 

Just go, Levein!

They should just copy and paste his comments from the previous week. It’s the same old nonsense every week - he can fix it, he’s disappointed, it won’t happen again,   work hard in training...

Its also interesting the way he says "His players are feeling the pressure". That tells you all you need to know about his views on his own position. The football is dire, the team selection is rubbish and we have not improved under his leadership. He should do the right thing and resign.

Craig loved you as a player and manager (first time) but please go man... you can’t fix this, stop kidding yourself on. It’s over, as hard as it is to accept do it for the club and fans! It’s painful to watch now!!!

If turning up in slowly decreasing numbers and booing isn’t doing it then it’s sadly time  to ramp it up a level. If he doesn’t fee

its untenable we have to make it untenable.
 

Time for an organised boycott at next home game.

He's right, the season isn't over yet which is all the more reason to get someone else in who can rescue it.

 

6 points off 4th will be 9 then 12 with him in charge.

He’s just been on BBC Scotland radio off the ball and spouted crap as usual.  Nothing about his tenure. Nothing.

Seeing that photo of him, sitting there like a Jackie waiting on a bus, gibbering a load of shite to anyone who will listen to him, makes me genuinely wonder if he's alright. 

He looks drained. Just give it up man ffs.

Impossible position now. 

 

A resignation would be more dignified,  not mutual consent,  honesty and responsibility required Craig. 

 

Don't lose your respect with those who have respected you and backed you. 

 

Enough is enough

He is actually taking the piss now. We have had words for the last 10 months. Fro. The players and from Levein. They know they aren't doing well enough but they can turn it around. It isn't happening. It isn't going to happen. This needs finished now.

Won’t make the derby so that’s out anyway. Possibly could have got time off work for the sheep Cup game, not going to bother. Already got tickets for St Mirren game, so going to that. 

If he’s still there, Killie game is no go !

Sorry, enough’s enough.

Doesn't matter who he signs, he ruins their creativity. It's no surprise that players come here, look decent then fall away and it's been going on for a very long time. The amount of players that have been through the revolving door is alarming. We sign players and never improve.

We have 2 points from 5 games. 

 

If we were to replicate that form over the season we would finish with 14 or 15 points. 

 

But yeah, we'll make up the 6 points we are already behind fourth.

We are bottom of the league 😆 Its almost like he trolling us.

He is and he has been now for months. This it what Levein does when he feels pressure. He picks fights with people in the press, like he done when Scotland boss, he targets fans and says things to go against what they have been saying. He’s got to go.
