He’s a one trick pony that is easy nullified if you can stop him getting space outside, it’s why he’s still at Hibs. Once again having to repeat myself. Show me one article where Morelos has actually criticised Rangers or the manager? Who’s Garcia? Again as I said and you obviously missed unless you’re Messi which kind of takes Ronaldo into that group. So everyone is wrong on this thread that Berra made lots of mistakes and was deservedly dropped from the team? As for his greeting to the press what an embarrassment, PHM that would run through brick walls 😂😭😢. I saw you disputed the press claim on another thread where Neilson said they’d just offered Irving a contract extension, you seem incapable of accepting any others persons point of view. Not sure why you think he would lie about it. Anyway no proof as usual with your point of view, nothing to back it up. You are being really silly now . A few posts ago I went along with your marriage joke thinking that would be a friendly way to end the conversation but seemingly not Anyway I have , once more answered all your points . Apologies in advance You have an opinion on Boyle , I disagree . Highlighted sentence ? If you want to find articles about players complaining it is quite easy . You think Hearts have never spoken to Irving about extending previously ? I think that would be naive in the extreme . Again my opinion If I had proof of my point of view it would , by definition , be a fact surely . Same thing , I'd hope , would apply to your point of view ?

I have proof to back up my point of view though, like Boyle still being at Hibs and scoring 74 goals in 304 games, you clearly don’t. Agreeing with one part of a post whilst repeating that I’m talking nonsense isn’t a friendly way to end a conversation, the very opposite in fact. I would say let’s agree to disagree and move on.

I'm pretty sure playing the game and lifting the cup is better than sitting on the bench and lifting the cup. I wouldn't be surprised to see him get the armband for the game either.

Would be one for the pub quiz if Berra and Neilson lift their second Scottish Cup for Hearts both from the same two finals 14 years apart with Neilson now as Berra's manager. Can't imagine that's happened too often. And yes I suspect Berra will lead us out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott980612 Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Good servant to Hearts, but is absolutely done. His body had gave up a year ago , it’s actually hard to watch him struggle around the park. Can get away with playing against plumbers, anymore than that is horrifically out his depth.

jambo mark Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Berra summed up our performance today. Poor in the first half (and I don’t blame Neilson for trying to contain) but immense in the second half. Bullied Eduoard.

Nonsense Halkett is improving all the time and I think is becoming a great player for us. Berra may be a little short of legend status at Tynie but been a great servant. He deserves respect, played at a high level, made us decent money when he first left and always gives his all. He’ll contribute for the rest of the season and then that’ll be that, clearly no renewal of his contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glottis Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 After the penalty he had a great game. He had been particularly poor up until then. He cannot be our centre half in the premiership. I'd like to see Popescu play more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heartsfc_fan Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Can't fault his effort yesterday and he kept Eduard fairly quiet. He's out of contract in the summer, so promotion will be a good way to bow out. Still feel he's got a year or two left in him with a championship side.

I take it you didn't see his attempt at trying to mark Brown when he won the header that led to their thrid goal ? I thought he played ok compared to how he has done previously having said that though. Just a pity Ginnelly hadn't taken one of the chances he had late on to win it before going to penalties.

A_A wehatethehibs Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Berra was, is and always will be a fighter for Hearts. He was our best defender yesterday. But unfortunately Hearts need upgrades x2 fit, quality, ball playing center halves when we get promoted. Its the most important piece of business we’ve had to do in years.
