Ibrahim Tall Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Logan’s a good player, I don’t think that’s really anyone’s issue tbh. Certainly isn’t mine. Issue is more that we apparently ‘needed’ to sign a senior and probably well paid player for the sake of winning a league that’s basically already over because Neilson is too much of clueless shitebag to have accommodated a single youth player into the team that should already be battering everyone in this division.

Smithee Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 He's a good player I've always liked him, and he showed that he's still got it today. But it's Hearts all over just now - we don't have any left backs left, better sign a right back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

wishawjambo Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Thought logan played well today, regarding aidy white there's a player in there but he's got no confidence seen it today and against QoS ball played to him and he turned back and played it back to centre half instead of taking it a hurl think our game might be a bit 100mph for him as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It’s taken him until now though to do it, he’s been able to sign someone since January.

DETTY29 Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 (edited) 14 hours ago, gowestjambo said: On a couple of occassions he drove forward with the ball, passed to another Hearts player - who promptly passed the ball backwards losing all momentum. He looked composed on the ball and was looking for runners, which never materialised..... Thought he had a good first 30, very positive going forward until he figured out his job wasn't to drive forward or run into space but pass the ball back to Smith or forward to Irving on condition Irving was facing Smith or Halkett to pass back to. Quality rant at Popescu's lazy hospital pass in the second half. Think he may even have stamped his feet. Edited April 4 by DETTY29 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
