It’s a pretty shameful record either way but it’s nowhere near as ‘long’ as it first appears. Fair shout. Still failed to beat them away in the 7 times since. Hopefully we can buck the trend on friday. We really need to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want people to come up with objective views on Clare, his efficiencies. All I am seeing is a defense exposed because he is not a defender. This is not to say he does not have good moments this is to say defensively he is a liability and it outweighs his assets column, assists, goals. Takes an excellent pen still Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramrod Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Clare should be right side of a 3 behind Boyce and Smith should be right back if both fit , we'll create more chances and be more solid at the back . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clare has been our best player for weeks now. The penalty incident started with Hickey , not under too much pressure , turning back and passing to Zlamal . Zlamal , not under too much pressure , passes to Souttar . Souttar , under a lot of pressure , gives the ball away . Clare makes a fairly innocuous , but naive , challenge . Guy goes down .

Kiwidoug Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Despite the never ending illnesses and injuries, Hearts 0 at half time simply won't do. Our oponents are near the bottom of the league for a reason. If we are in front at the interval, Stendel has to prepare them to work even harder in the 2nd half. I'm confident that the spirit will be good, the support will be tremendous and we'll record a good win to lift all our spirits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Kilpatrick Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 (edited) IIRC, we haven't scored first in a league game under Stendel.

pettigrewsstylist Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 17 hours ago, Zlatanable said: DANIEL: FOCUS FROM FIRST WHISTLE https://www.heartsfc.co.uk/news/article/daniel-focus-from-first-whistle Daniel Stendel has told his players to go to Paisley with a winning mentality on Friday night because he doesn’t believe St Mirren’s midweek extra time exploits will hinder them. The Buddies triumphed in last night’s Scottish Cup tie over Motherwell after 120 minutes and a penalty shootout. Daniel reckons that result could galvanise Jim Goodwin’s side and has therefore instructed his men in maroon to start the Simple Digital Arena encounter in a better manner than in recent weeks, and make the most of any chances that arise. Speaking at his pre-match press conference, Daniel said: “It’s a win and it’s important as it also gives them a lift. I don’t like that the players think ‘ok, they played on Tuesday’ because they (St Mirren) will think ‘we have won this cup game, we have the chance to win against Hearts and a have a big chance (to open up a gap)’. “Not one moment in their head will they be thinking ‘oh, we played Tuesday’. Only in their head will be that Friday is the next game and they have a big chance to win. “This is what we need to think. It doesn’t matter what was on yesterday, we have to concentrate on our game. Everybody can expect a big fight (from us) on Friday and we need to start well. “This, at the moment, is a little bit of a problem. We have the chances – yeah, against 10 players (of Hamilton Accies) – but we have so many chances to win the game in the second half but we conceded two goals. The situation is that nobody can understand why we did it. “When we defend as a team better and we are more concentrated from the first moment then I think for everybody it is easier to play our game and to handle the pressure. “My feeling is that the players understand it and all want to give the best for this club and stay up in the league, and especially with this support and this fanbase at this club. It’s a big privilege and to fight for this is so easy.” Is he serious? Surely he needs an interpreter!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
