Uncle Buck Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 They were both brilliant but Bednar for me. His movement was immense. Boyce is the best striker we’ve had since these two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Rabbit Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 I loved Bednar and think him getting injured, a long with the multiple sackings, was the reason our challenge drifted off quicker. Jankauskas was a player who you could tell was class but we were getting him at the end of his career. He could still produce that magic but I think Bednar due to his mobility was a bigger threat.

No doubt. Just didn't quite get the hype around bednar after he came back from his early injury. He done better in England than I expected so maybe I'm being harsh on him.

Brighton Jambo Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Has to be Janny for me too. A top player who had it all. To think we had a forward as good as Pospisil warning the bench in that period is bonkers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyCant Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Similar goals totals and probably less than you’d think unless you looked it up. On the grounds that Bednar usually gave 100% and Jankauskas, the more talented footballer, sometimes gave 50%, I’d vote Bednar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bannon Flick Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Jankauskas was a class act but I would go for Bednar. He played like he had a point to prove and a career to build. Plus he went toe to toe and boxed with Romanov 😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2 Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Jankauskas was one of the best players ever to grace the Tynecastle turf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Sanchez Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Jankauskas. Exactly the player we could do with just now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamboozy Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Roman Bednar, I always think how much a player would give me the fear if playing against us and Roman would certainly do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boag1874 Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 (edited) At Hearts? Both were brilliant but Janny by a bawhair for me, he's a huge part of the reason Skacel & Hartley were on fire that season with his link up/hold up & general footballing brain. Over a full career it's Janny by a country mile. Edited October 22, 2021 by boag1874 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambo Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Jankauskas. Nothing wrong with Bednar but Jankauskas was better player imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4marsbars Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 On the grounds that I have more vivid memories of Jankauskas that season, his amazing touch and close control, I'd go for him. Along with Fysas, made you think "what on Earth's he doing at Hearts?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Das Viertel Hearts Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Bednar. Injuries unfortunately but had what it takes to be a forward!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was way above our level, just like Takis, both came to us at the end of their careers, but we had great value from Takis Fysas while Janny was unfit for most of the time so I doubt he played a dozen games for us. Bednar was a very good player but was not in the same class as the aforementioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzz Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Very tough to decide between them but Bednar for me. Incredibly there was a guy who sat a couple of rows behind me who couldn’t stand Roman Bednar. He would give him dogs abuse every game. No idea what his problem was.

Kalamazoo Jambo Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 I’d say Jankauskis. Neither of them were particularly prolific goal scorers. Bednar had more pace, Janny had more class. Janny’s overall play was top notch, he scored a couple of screamers and he of course took on and beat Zibby in the 2006 semi. What’s not to like?

gregzy2k7 Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 If I could have one of them back in today's team I would take Bednar, I always felt like he could have hit 20+ goals if he stayed fit, Jankauskas was a phenomenal player though, both of them would walk into today's team imo.
