All roads lead to Gorgie Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Really impressed not only for the way we moved the ball around but also the players willing to throw their bodies in the way to win back the ball back.

Agree with the sentiment from other posters, who I think are really saying this result would be indicative of how the season will pan out, but a 'must win' game seems a bit much. Long way to go. That said, winning this game does help create momentum and confidence that will help. Ofc, it was important to see how we'd play v a team that sits in. Never a must win tho. Folk do like a bit drama. Great for points as well as momentum! - on to Motherwell next week who have really surprised me so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

August Landmesser Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 A good day today, total dominance with a couple of lulls, but we never once looked in any bother. Devlin is bonza eh? Moore was great, I like his charges upfield. Woodburn a bit quiet but played Gnando in for what would've been a 4th if the ref hadn't blown up for FT. Nice to pump a team coached by Imrie and Bartley too, Livi a dirty crew, could be this year's Hamilton? Bring on Murderwell, I've a feeling they won't sit in as much, could be a ripsnorter next week!

5jambo1 Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Excellent win and performance. Everyone played their part and we never got out of 2nd/3rd gear against a team who made it tough by sitting in. Last season this would have been the type of game that we drew as couldn’t break them down, the extra quality we have made the difference today. Devlin looks a player, what a difference to have him and baningime in the middle of the park… pace, energy, bite and also quality on the ball. I think livi had one attempt at goal and never looked a threat at all at any point during the game. Dominated from start to finish was the most pleasing aspect for me only thing that I’m not happy about is thinking what could have been….3 draws should and have and could easily have been three wins. We are looking good. Motherwell will be a tougher test next week but we go with momentum and confidence 🇱🇻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Hardy’s Dug Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Great to see Beni and Devlin together. I said a modern midfield earlier this week - somebody asked what the **** that meant. I hope today showed it. Energetic, precise, can defend and can move it forward, can control the game… These two players can basically control most of our midfield battles moving forward. Must admit I was a little underwhelmed by McKay signing - not annoyed about it just a bit meh - but he looks like being our best wide attacker since Rudi.

Brick Tamland Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Great all round team performance and 3-0 flatters Livingston. Going through the team Gordon, had very little to do and his distribution was great. I thought Moore was excellent, absolutely solid, very good in the air, drove forward, tackled well, defended well, read the game well, a real find. Halkett, I’m not a fan but this was his best game in a Hearts jersey, very solid and good all round game. Kingsley - great performance, good all round play, link up was good, defending was good, thought his free kick was going in, performing a good partnership with Cochrane. Smith, the tactical change 10 mins into the game to switch with Mackay and play him inside right rather than outside right changed everything. Great energy, great goal and what a strike that the keeper saved. Very good performance from him. Beni - set a high bar early in his career with us and has maintained it, everything in his game today was spot on and an excellent example of how a defensive midfielder should play. Devlin - if he can play with that energy and tenacity in every game he won’t be with us long. Showed great desire and will to win and covered every blade of grass, got right into the faces of the opposition and was talking and organising everything around him. Great performance and a worthy MoM. Cochrane. Best he has played and gave a master class on how a modern day wingback should play. His lay off for Smiths goal was excellent and his positioning for the goal he scored was excellent. Forming a great understanding with Kingsley and his link play is superb. Mackay - different gravy when he came out wide, some of his touches and movement were a joy to watch. Exactly the type of player we needed against a team who had 11 players behind the ball, someone who can go by players and create space and havoc at the same time. Just finding his feet and fitness so I think we will see a lot more to come from him in the future. Woodburn - his off the ball movement was great today he creates a lot of space for other players and he wasn’t too bad on the ball either. Good with the ball at his feet and his vision and decision making today was excellent, apart from his shot/cross into the Gorgie stand another great performance. Would love to see him score as I think that’s what he needs to raise his game that wee bit more. Boyce, seemed to enjoy it a bit more today and struck his penalty well. Good at dragging defenders out of position today but would like to see a bit more grit and fire from him. Subs - good subs by Robbie and they all played their part and ensured the performance didn’t slip. Great game, great team performance with a special mention for Moore, Devlin, Beni, Cochrane, Smith and Mackay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
