hearts00 Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 I can’t see him being here past the end of this season. So the question is how much money will we get for him? less than £5m need not apply. Although I sense he will have a release clause that will be triggered at a frustratingly low amount, say perhaps £2m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that attitude in a player. He clearly sees us as a stepping stone to better things, so knows he has to perform for us if he is to make that progress. Far better to bring in younger players who still have ambition than seasoned pros whose best days are behind them and might view us as their last decent pay day.

Every time he went into a challenge today I just thought he would win the ball, and almost every time he did. Then when he did win the ball, he held onto it, held off challenges and played a pass, he rarely gives the ball away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_A wehatethehibs Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Top midfield prospect in the league in my opinion and already league player of the year contender after just 5 games.

Jodami Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Incredibly impressed, great on the ball, works hard and doesn't do anything rash. Hope to see him at the club for at least 2 of the 3 years. If he continues in this vein maybe look to offer a new contract towards the end of the season with a decent release amount in it. If you were watching the team cold you would assume he is the captain as he is so authoritative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pasquale for King Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 (edited) 13 hours ago, David McCaig said: Arguably Beni's best match yet which is one hell of a compliment given how good he's been. He was much more dominant on the ball today and got further up the park to help create. Like to see more of that, he’s got quality and is beginning to show it going forward too. Brilliant signing, as much as I love Haring I’m not sure if he’s the right partner for Beni. A more attack minded player against lesser teams might be a better option.

Tom Hardy’s Dug Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 The good thing about Beni is that he has plenty EPL level pedigree behind him already. He hasn’t been knocking about at Arbroath before coming to us. That should double his price from our normal transfer fees as a starting point.

EH11 2NL Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Can't remember a Hearts player that wins so many tackles, and wins them easily.

One five Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 There is not a lot of players like Beni he is very clever at tackling not just a winner of the ball like most holding midfielders but often steals the ball with precision absolute great to have just hope we can keep him for at least a couple of seasons.

RobNox Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 He's the Gorgie Kante for me. He has bags of energy, consistently wins possession, is comfortable on the ball and rarely makes a slack pass. As was pointed out earlier in the thread, he completed 36 of 37 passes.

Guest ToqueJambo Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 (edited) Every time I watch him play I can't believe we got him for free on a 3 year contract. He's the type of quality you'd expect to get on loan for a season if you're lucky. Always looking to go forward if the space is there, does the right thing with the ball 90% of the time. Brilliant first touch. Unbelievable in the tackle. Also sets very high standards for himself it seems - Boyle got past him one time in the first half (one of the very rare times he didn't make the tackle) on the break and you could see how pissed off with himself he was Boyle got away from him. Love the guy. Him and Haring are starting to form a good partnership too. Neilson loves a solid CM two - they could be the Gomis and Bauben/Pallardo of 14/15.

Humblerogue Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 I think this is where we are looking at in the market, young very promising players coming at the end of their contract that have a point to prove. That we normally would have no chance of signing. Come up, play well and have a platform with games shown on sky sports. Then when the right bid comes in, thanks very much for your hard work. Also shows to prospective players that we are the right club for them and their careers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berra than you Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Whilst I do hope we keep him longer than this season (especially if we get European football) even just having him for a season is huge for us.
