Gotta love anyone who is compared to Stevie Fulton, he was the most impactful player of that golden era and made the rest of the team tick. A midfielder who bossed the job, on the deck.

Jamdub Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Ok Mr Savage, get the 'Portobello Pirlo' signed asap he is the quality we require when we move up to the SPL.

Baxfee Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 he still has loads to learn. This shows in spades that he really could be very very special if he keeps focussed and grounded.

18Jambo_dave74 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Great goal today. For me the good thing with Irving is that whilst he is already a good player there is still room for lots of improvement to his game. Hopefully we can get a new contract sorted ASAP.

Pasquale for King Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 His goal today was reminiscent of another number 19 we used to have. Let’s see more of this. Still got a lot to master but where better to do it and go with our blessing like Gordon did, in fact get him to have a word with him.

alanjambo Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Andy Irving is a class player who, if he develops, will be a top class midfielder. And he loves the Hearts. He's one of ours. One of the best performances I've seen from a Hearts player in the last three years was Andy Irving against Aberdeen. He was phenomenal that day. I think Stendel really believed in him and built his confidence. He's now getting back to that level. We need to try and build a team around this boy because he is exactly what we need.

Gimme an H... Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Not that it matters what I think but I'll be absolutely seething if we dick around with his contract offer and lose him for nothing.

stuart500 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 I'm sure we will be doing everything in our power to keep him. Moving Lee on will release a wage and hopefully allow us to make him a decent offer. Would like to think we can also find money for a new deal for Cochrane. Another player who can see a forward pass.
