Jambos_1874 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Very talented player but definitely played below his best today. Thought he would have been pulling out all of the stops to impress Gerrard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuart500 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 I see this as a bonus. We've done great so far without him reaching expectations. There is definitely more to come from him. When it does I suspect it will be well worth the wait. As I say, it's great to know Woodburn and one or two others have still to get up to speed. A great place to be!!

gregzy2k7 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Have seen enough to know that he is a player, of course he hasn't hit form yet but I reckon he just needs a goal and will be flying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hearts151 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 I'd say he's been absolutely excellent so far. However today I got the feeling he was desperate to shine and do well meaning he didn't relax and play naturally. Basically tried to hard meaning it just didn't flow for him today. Meh, it'll come!

Bull's-eye Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 We're in the rather nice position of having serious attacking strength in all areas of the pitch. Opposition coaches have rightly targeted Ben as our best option. He's getting doubled up on and pressed constantly. Rangers did a good job on all our players today for 60 minutes. But...Wee Boab has players with big baws and rather good ability at his disposable now 🙂 Ben is a class act. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Byyy The Light Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Didn’t have a great game today but he didn’t shy away from tracking back and doing his bit for the team. I think days like today will show the likes of Beni and Woodburn what this league is all about and hopefully (in Woodburn’s case) it’s worth signing for a club like Hearts over a mid table championship team. It’s not the cake walk most down south think it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pasquale for King Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 He needs a goal and a bit of confidence, also players moving so he can find them, not exactly seen a lot of the ball especially today. He will come good I’m sure of that, harsh as it is to say it but once he gets used to the lower standard of player he’s playing with.

Debut 4 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Don’t think he’s playing with enough intensity. Not overly influential in last two matches at Tynie. On the fringes too much. Best half for me was v Hibs. Marked difference in intensity from first half to 2nd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BackOfTheNet Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 It’s possible to both think he has shown quality as well as feel he’s not contributed enough. These opinions are not mutually exclusive. You can tell the guy has quality, but if we’re being entirely honest if his name wasn’t one we had heard of and if he wasn’t coming from Liverpool I suspect he wouldn’t be held in as high regard and his performances in a Hearts shirt to date would be criticised more than they currently are. Not saying he’s been bad or anything, but he’s not been above average either. But I’m okay with that, as if there’s more to come like there looks like there should be then I’m looking forward to it happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halliphax Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 (edited) While he hasn't scored and he had one 'off' game today; it's undeniable that he's a very intelligent player and creates pockets of space which give our other players some room to maneuver. In my opinion, whether he scores or not even if he just keeps doing what he's doing and gives other's more goal scoring opportunities then he's a massive credit to the team.
