*** Heart of Midlothian v St Johnstone Official Match Thread ***

Recommended Posts

Hoping Hearts can get off to a flyer Saturday, with Daniel Stendal at the helm, I no that it's gonna take time for him to get the team playing well, consistently, hopefully this bunch of players, can get their fingers out, and show the support a bit of fight and passion, long overdue.

Let's start climbing this table. 

Winning start for Stendal??????

2-0 Hearts

Craig Wighton to play in this new revolution. 

 

This might annoy a few.

 

 

I will be childishly all petted lip if MacLean plays tbf.

Do you think he suits the new style or heard he’s been good in training, some other reason?

Badoom tish!

 

He might score at both ends.

My worry is Stendel has to train the coaches as well as the players about his methods.

 

He really needs at least one of his own coaches in sooner rather than later.

 

Saying that, 2-1 Hearts

I think we are all delighted with the appointment of Stendel and from hearing reports on training and words from the players it seems we have the right man. But let’s make sure we play our part on Saturday as well!

I agree!

”Our part on Saturday” starts when we accept the team selection, and not moan about “why him?”, “why not him?”!!

This is a new start all round.

For the 1st time in a very very long time I am buzzing for a game.

 

Me too. 

 

If we win, though, I hope I can remember how to react. Do you smile, cheer, applaud, streak naked on the pitch...?

Just think he'll be given his chance. 

 

He's had injuries, personal issues, you name it. Then trying to play under a manager who's stifled a lot of the creativity of a number of players. For me, he starts at Day 1 again. As do they all I suppose. They're playing for their futures, and will all get a shot to impress before January.

 

I happen to think  he'll get a chance this weekend, on nothing more than an educated hunch. Plenty of games to come, & Stendel plays various formations to go at the opposition. Can't see him being a first team fixture, but enough to be kept around quite feasibly. 

 

Clare, Morrison, Wighton, Walker...we could see different players. 


Aye, definitely a fresh start. I fully expect a few surprises in who will flourish under DS.

Cheers, bud.

 

Thank goodness you stepped up and put me right. Hate to make a fool of myself by just applauding...

It’s interesting. Does Stendel come in and immediately drop the poorer performers to give others a chance, Berra, Bozanic, MacLean etc.? 
 

These guys won’t last long with his style either way. 
 

Looking forward to the new era and new style.

2-2 with a big improvement in attacking intent but defensive frailties and lack of quality to hamper us.

In time with the current squad I’d like to think the strategy to work harder and press higher will suit us more. 

 

We struggle to break teams down, so snapping up loose balls in the opposition half or hitting on the counter may just suit us.  It’ll take time to adapt and it’s very much a period of transition. 

 

Maybe when he starts to get his own look about the squad we’ll be a more all round side.

Captain Canada

It will be interesting to see his team selection. I'm sure there will be one or two surprises.

 

I think we'll win 2-0. Clare and Uche.

That would be a disaster. Levein had a very good (home) record against St Johnstone. He also had a very good record against Hibs and (home) record against Aberdeen. Stendel has to get a lot of points between now and 2020. On a positive note, stendel won 4-0 in his first home game at Barnsley. At Johnstone recently lost 4-0 to Motherwell. I’ll go 4-0 Hearts on Saturday...

It is possible we will concede the first goal.  Should that happen it will be critical that the team reacts in a very positive manner.  Something that AB acknowledges they have been distinctly unable to do.

Wouldn’t surprise me. Don’t think we will see much more of Uche. Naismith, Meschino, Washington and Wighton all more suited to his style.

He has watched the last three games so he will have made his mind up about a good few.

Good. The more dramatic the change at this stage, the better. 
 

It’s a good chance to get a bit of form for Uche, I suspect he will have a big role to play. Thinking back to how good he was at the start of last season, home to Celtic is the one that stands out, didn’t give them a minutes peace.

We’ve come from behind to win against Hibs and Aberdeen this season ...

I know that but generally speaking AB said we had become timid and not many on here would argue.

 

Just read a bit from Sean Clare.  Sounds like he can't wait to get going.  Talk can be cheap but let's just see.

Will mcphee be in the dug out? 

Yes but only cause Hearts took offence to Spiers comments and will be wearing a suit to balance out our new managers scruffiness.
