karipidis Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 1 hour ago, Smith's right boot said: Bozanic was better in the top flight for us than Gomis was. Prince was ok, even after promotion. Gomis and pallardo struggled badly in the top flight. Anyway, point stands our transfers may be limited more than normal this window. Hmm, Gomis played a fair number of games in the first half of the first season in the premier league where we finished 3rd. Bozanic struggled to get a game for us when we are sitting bottom of the league. Not sure how you can say Bozanic was better in the top flight for us than Gomis.

jambonian Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 1 hour ago, Smith's right boot said: Me too, but I'd be amazed if Dunne is chapping at the bit to join a second teir Scottish club for a fraction of his previous earnings and move country during a pandemic. Maybe he'll be limited in his offers tho, would be a great signing for us. Shame (for us) he ignited his one-year extension clause at Burnley. I know what you mean about us being in the Championship, it could be an issue for some players. Dunne would've been a great signing, a three year deal or something. It's only one year in the Championship and he's still young. Still think he would've at least gave it some thought. He'll know we were relegated through the corrupted corridors of power illegally and that might've made a difference. Oh well, we move on.

Might work With Berra and Walker already here, an ex-player/manager back, Gordon back, talk of Nicholson, Lafferty, Rossi, Wilson and others mentioned....yes, let's look ahead now instead of backwards. Gordon for a coaching role eventually, fair enough but we need a fresh impetus. Time to maybe speculate to accumulate. We need to get back to what we did under JJ in the 90s. We used to do well with some of the best players in Scotland at other clubs, Cameron, McCann, Hamilton, Hartley later etc. I'd be looking at Nisbet, Shankland and others in Scotland before Aberdeen and Hibs start sniffing around. If our scouting system is any good at all i'd expect Hearts to be looking at these guys with a view to potential sell-on for good money and not just being lazy and looking back to the past.

AlimOzturk Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 (edited) People are really seriously scoffing at the idea of bringing Sam Nicholson back? Always rated him.

Felt he struggled with the pace and intensity of top league to take us to the level we needed to be at. Mitigating factors with what was going on with his Dad but wasn’t overly fussed when he left.

Famous 1874 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 1 hour ago, Smith's right boot said: Yes and no. For a start, Bozanic was a top 6 player for us. I'd like a few short term deals of known quality to to give us the best chance to go up, that along with the spine of the time and the youngsters should be more enough. Sam and Gordon fit that bill. Bozanic would as well. We can then attempt to build a top 3 team on promotion , no need for a middle step imo. The problem we wil have is attracting players of a top 3 or 6 quality right now with out over paying for them, when promoted that would be easier and cheaper so unfortunately we need to think a little short term as our longer term goals are out of our reach atm. Ofc, if we win anywhere near £8m we can go SMG money or Vlad Stylee bonkers. Bozanic was not a top 6 player mate. He is championship standard if that. Screamer against Hibs and that’s it.
