How do we know that Irving like Hickey just now, won't flourish in a team that offers better coaching and a better standard of players. Guy was one of the positives we had last season, bossed the game against Aberdeen at home, who had Lewis Ferguson in midfield. Ferguson has a ton of clubs wanting him, including Rangers. no doubt about the talent.. but can count the amount of times he’s demonstrated it on one hand sadly.. he has enough ability that we shouldn’t even question his place in the team.

And even odder that pretty much the same sequence has repeated itself under Robbie. To my untrained eye he offers something very different from our other midfielders. I hope we can get this sorted.

I wouldn't go so far as to build the team around him but I would try to get the best out of him by employing him in a system he can flourish (eg 4-2-3-1 as opposed to 4-4-2 for instance) and getting "legs" around him (Haring) to compensate for his lack of awareness in spotting players running behind him.

Of our twelve games, he was unavailable for two due to being away with the Scotland U-21s. Of the remaining 10, he’s started 4, was a sub in 4 and an unused sub once. The only one of these games when he wasn’t in the match day squad was home to Alloa - maybe he wasn’t fully fit for that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s almost certainly because the managers see them every day and we don’t. It’s a similar story with a number of the other young ‘stars’ we supposedly have. There is a lot more to being a footballer at that age than just what goes on once on the pitch. We have had a number out on loan in recent years, particularly the ones who have had a taste of first team football, to lower league clubs and yet most of them fail to hold down a starting place. Cochrane and McDonald at Dunfermline, Smith currently at Arbroath, etc. The only one in recent times to make a go of their dev loans has been Morrison at Stirling Albion.

If he's not getting a game in the championship, what chance does he have if we go up. Irving is getting a chance he’s played in 6 of our 11 competitive games and is being offered a new contract by the club as we speak. To me I think it’s likely to be a 3 year deal bringing him in line with the mid level wage bracket of first team players, which is an incredible offer for a young player a clear indication he is in the immediate and long term plans, with an option to extend the deal and bring him into the top wage bracket if his current improvement continues next season and he goes on to win awards, fire us forward to Europe and achieve international recognition which are the goals for Hearts players which at present Andy Irving has not yet achieved. Moore, 2 years older at 22, is not at the same quality level as Irving. No idea why Moore and Henderson always seem to get brought up in the same conversations as Irving. He is a level above them 2 so they’re not really relevant in this discussion. Wouldn’t have been fussed if the 2 of them had both been released in the summer but I suppose may do a job at championship level so that’s why they’ve been kept on. They are Brad mackay / Kevin mchattie level whereas Irving I would say is the same level as the younger Jamie Walker when he was playing in this division, maybe not quite as good as Paterson but with improvements this season he can get there.

True in alot of cases but I’d have thought the environment to take a wee chance on a developing player would be the championship. You need to see what these lads can give over a series of matches, in different scenarios, to see how they respond. One or two matches here or there is pointless. Past managers we had knew how to integrate young players while limiting the potential damage to the overall performance of the team, and that was in the SPL.

Maple Leaf Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Irving is one of our promising young players and we need to get him signed to a mutually acceptable contract as soon as possible. We've seen what he can do, and that is to add an addition threat in a team that is often plodding and predictable. He usually passes the ball forward, which is a rare quality for us!

We'll find out when there is a bidding war between Bayern, Celtic and Bologna for Irving I suppose. I think Irving is terrific but he's done nothing to prove he can play at the level Hickey is now playing at. Hickey had proven that with us within fewer games than Irving has had. He didn't suddenly turn into a better player at Bologna - he already was that player. Not knocking Irving as he's my favourite player in the squad right now, I hope he's first choice alongside Haring and we have him for a very long time.

Aye, I know DS took us from joint bottom to bottom under someone else's side after taking ages to be appointed and having no backroom staff originally while Levein still kicked about taking a wage. Daly and Macphee hanging about like leeches too. Stendel I'm sure had to pay part of his assistants wages ffs Ironically, given your obsession with him and given that this is a discussion about not giving players like Irving a chance, of all the managers you mention Levein is the one who has shown most faith in Irving. He gave him his debut and played him in almost every game until he got sacked. I do wish he'd started him more though. McPhee dropped him, Stendel eventually picked him, and Robbie has played him in most games but seems to be going with experience so far in our current situation.

They’ll all probably do to get us up but I’d empty the lot and start again. I don't disagree but why did we extend their deals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone somewhere thought it was worth it, they are still young. Maybe I’m being overly harsh but I just don’t think they’ll make it.

It was and that is my point we didn't have a Manager at the time but we extend their contracts??? Doesn't make sense to me. Let the new Manager make the decision surely.
