Now, as development manager, some are moaning. Only on JKB!

That was down to the 3 at the back model that allowed GMS to come inside and impact on play from the middle. By all accounts we are back to 4 in defence next season and i expect GMS to be back on the wing first and foremost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 I think folk have forgotten Naismith took a cut early days of COVID, his decision is to become a member of staff, rather than a contractor in every day life; this provides job security, probably other perks (he wont really need) but will come with a significant drop in salary. Steven Naismith is a wealthy man, this is now about his future career development, realising his legs have probably just about gone, he has made the bright forward thinking move, to take 1 back to take 2 forward. Boab, pressure is on, your successor is in waiting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasted on the wing. Neilson is obviously not Bielsa and we are not Leeds but would expect a front 3 or 4 to be very interchangeable when the season begins, need another piece though or we would require to rely on Hendo. Hendo improved dramatically towards the end for the system, Boyce as the pinnacle, Ginnelly, GMS and Hendo/AN other buzzing round Boyce, that could be quite exciting. Problem we still have is winning the ball back, hopefully Pete stays fit, McEneff improves, 2 rock solid midfield options still lacking, as good a passer and striker of the ball as Irving is/was, he had significant holes in his game. Halliday needs to play left, if he reappears in the middle think I will end Neilson myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sub4TiddlerMurray Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Naismith could have sat on the remaining lucrative (by our standards rather than his) contract. He didn't. He did the honourable thing, hung up his boots and freed money in the club's playing budget. Let's take a moment and applaud that. He has now moved to a salaried position with the cub. That's a great thing for him and for Hearts. I'm sure smart young players would see him as an attractive option for developing their careers and as such he will help us to sign better young talent. Moving from a playing contract to a salaried employee means the former has ceased and the latter will be consistent with other salaried employees remuneration and conditions (i.e. it is absurd to assume he's on anything close to what he earned before) Upshot: brilliant for the club and brilliant for him. Reading anything else into this is pant-wetting of the highest order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having said that have we advertised the job on the open market to see if there were any better options out there? Don't think we did. I honestly don't see any better options out there for us as a club. He has the most footballing experience at the club, played at the exceptional high level and is been a proven mentor and leader for the last few years. Granted he doesn't have the "experience" or had a similar role before, but I think this is a very good move by the club to help out young players transition and develop further towards the first team. I have high hopes for him and this role, hopefully this will provide our youngsters with the mentality needed in order to succeed, and the likes of Hickey and Patterson will become more frequent!
