Mikey1874 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Believe it's for the season. I doubt he'll be back. Plenty options attacking midfield which is his preferred position with Henderson, McDonald, Connor Smith. Left back covered too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't recall players early from international loans. Well you can, if everyone agrees, but you can't dictate it like you can domestically.

Just a young player we took a punt on, like many others (including Andy Kirk) before him. Some work out, some don't, and I'm sure we'll do the same in the future.

Burns is just an example of the normal comings and goings at any football club. He's an Andy Kirk who looks like he maybe might not make the grade at Hearts.

Firefox Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Just watched Newcastle Jets Vs Sydney FC on BT Sport.

SomethingAboutObua Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 If he came back either way Hearts would have to send him back to Oz again, either to continue his loan with Newcastle or to go back and get his personal stuff and ship it back to here/NI, which surely Hearts would have agreed to pay for in his loan deal. Also Newcastle are bottom of the league and their season will very likely finish in April if they don't improve. Think it's a no. Maybe that's just too simple an answer but honestly it'd probably be too much hassle to bring back a low wage youth player on an expensive (probably complicated if it's professional sport related) working VISA, who's getting more game time somewhere else, just to see if he can fit into the plans now or if he should be sent out on loan again. There's not a lot of evidence as yet of him being great or terrible and I can't see his wage being high enough that it's worthwhile trying to release him early even if he was utterly horrendous.

You're not suggesting he shipped a container of furniture and household goods over there are you? You'll be lucky if he took more than one suitcase i'd have thought.

Played well with a strike partner and turned up in the big games. Could link well with a Washington type player (as could Boyce or others).
