Spoleto Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 I've been saying it on here for weeks as Clare was being targeted as the scape goat. Mulraney offers very little. In saying that I don't agree with some of the abuse aimed his way. We are a team lacking in confidence and fit players. I'll say it again - this is NOT the time to be judging the players or the manager. That time will come when we get four to five players back from injury.

Jarhead Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 1 hour ago, Jodami said: Some utter nonsense on this thread. Mulraney is a young player who like many wingers is inconsistent. He is a lad with confidence issues, so much so that the club sought out help for him last season. The entire team looks shot at the moment so it's no surprise he is the same. Played poorly today but didn't hide. Messing him about by playing him at wing back doesn't work, we should be accentuating his best attribute which is pace and playing him on the shoulder of the full back. Whilst I tend to agree with your point, and Cruyff’s suggestion of saveable potential, young player or not, Mulraney has reached the point were he needs to be delivering a higher standard of performance more regularly. His crossing is poor and he doesn’t score goals. He’s miles behind were someone like Templeton was at the same stage of his career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whelan was ordinary today and missed a sitter, you could make a very convincing argument that he was much more responsible for the points lost than Mulraney. No thread though. The point I'm making is he's a bit of an easy target and he is not being used to best effect - don't burden him with defending, let the lad run at teams. It's the young players who are most confused by the changing of formations. The whole team were poor today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willie wallace Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 He will never be a wing back.He got such a roasting in the first half that the rest of his game suffered because of it.iKillie attacked him the whole time and the goal finished him for the day. He looks like he doesn't what to be anywhere near that position. I had hopes for him but if his crossing does not improve then his future at Hearts must be in doubt.

Werner Herzog Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 (edited) A honking game for him today. Mulraney has always been (at best) a squad player with limited ability & consistency issues. The fact that he is 1 of only 2 players in the team offering width going forward speaks volumes over the incoherent, scattergun approach of Levein's recruitment. He is also not a wing back, but then again, playing people out of their natural position to the detriment of the entire team is Levein's forte.

He’s so infuriating as he has searing pace but hardly ever uses it. He always slows the game down when he gets the ball and waits until the defender is facing him to try and beat him.

Coco Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 There is no way we will get the best of him while he plays as a defender. Actually we won't get the best of him while we play without any strikers either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easily the worst winger in football history. I time him weekly to see how long it takes him to run past someone or at least at them. Today was quite quick..... 37 minutes.

Debut 4 Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 (edited) First division player. For a winger he very rarely gets shots in on goal. He rarely works to get behind full backs from a pass or force himself into the box. Edited October 5, 2019 by Debut 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s totally the managers fault for playing him there. He has absolutely no defensive attributes at all. Lost count of the times he was caught out today. Killie played to that.

Handofgod2015 Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 People shouldn’t focus solely on today’s game. He has literally 1 single attribute suitable to a football player.......PACE. Anyone saying that alone should get him a decent career, I have 1 thing to say...... Usain Bolt! He is terrible, can’t pass, cant cross, cant read the game, has no positional awareness either in defence or attack, cant shoot and has absolutely zero composure under pressure. Give a teenager a chance rather than him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peebo Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 His final delivery was absolutely embarrassing all game today. Kept trying, but was just really, really poor. I think I’m right in saying he just became a dad during the week, so perhaps knackered and/or not fully focused. Understandable, if so, but the sort of thing decent man management would pick up.

Can run fast is his only attribute. 23 year old who has scored about 4 goals in his career but Austin’s computer game thinks he’s a potential top class player.

TheGoodLord Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Don’t get all this. Mulraneys final ball is turd I get that. But I have no doubt the negativity he attracts is more born out of frustration as he time and time again gets himself into great positrons, way more than the whole team put together. Mulraney is without doubt and maybe it’s painful to hear our most attacking threat. Think he needs a bit of slack but somehow I doubt he will be afforded it.

fabienleclerq Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 I like Mulraney, he was poor yesterday though. He can beat a man and has been one of our better players in the last year. Yesterday's formation first half left him out of position, needing to attack two players by himself and then defend too, horrible tactics.

pettigrewsstylist Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Mulraney has shown his ability on several occasions. For me, he is one that need a new mgmt set up before binning. Could still be electric and game winning player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
