Scott Leitch Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 It was obvious to everyone we were getting out numbered and overran in midfield. He watched this and done nothing about it. For me this is why Neilson will never be the right man. Horseshit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex member of the SaS Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 TBF I was beginning to think I was being too hard on Robbie but days like today show that he has a very limited play book. Everyone could see the defense was struggling yet he stood and watched that first half and did nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leveins Battalion Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Haring should of been on at half time at the latest,that mistake cost us massively and by the time Moore was went off the game was goosed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walter Bishop Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 100% agree. We have to be able to adjust away from home, it’s not a coincidence we don’t perform the same way as we do at Tynecastle. Dundee United played out from the back which left spaces for our front 3 to get in behind, Motherwell play hoof ball so tactics had to change for today’s game, We were totally overpowered and over run today and it was obvious to see this after 10 mins.

feej Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Not a fan of Neilson, was willing to see how we started the season, done ok however seems to have been another abject away performance, he appears not to be learning which is very worrying. If away performance s continue like this for much longer he needs to consider how much further he can take the team. I don't rate him!!!

martoon Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 He's the weakest link at the club. Hearts can do better and can afford better. Neilson is a decent coach but he's not right for us going forward. That is assuming we are as ambitious as the backroom staff appointments and summer recruitment's suggest. And before the Robbieista's pounce no, I don't have the answers replacements wise...but there's a bloke already at the club who will.

Lone Striker Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 You'd like to think that somewhere in that big folder Elbows keeps that there'd be some detailed plan on how to change a game in which we're being over-run. 🙄 The poster who reckoned 2 weeks ago we're just as likely to see another Aberdeen-type performance as a Dundee Utd-type one was spot on.

Debut 4 Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Slowly looking like a home team. The away form is drifting and it will affect our ability to keep a strong position in the top 3,4 throughout the season. You could say making Tynie a “fortress” again is a start but you can’t be picking up an odd point now and again on the road. It takes away the good work at Tynecastle.

Silvery_Moon Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 (edited) I have said this before about him and also said it during his first spell as manager. He's a safe pair of hands but limited. Overall he will have the club in a reasonable position. We won't win anything but will be stable.

Bazzas right boot Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Shout for Haring in these games isn't far of the mark imo. However, more than that we need another striker, Boyce is missed in these games. We simply can't go long/ direct if Woodburn or Gino is up top. Gnando is as good as gone it would seem.

stevie1874 Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 To be fair to Neilson we've been good to watch this season at home, but his inability to change shape during a game to combat the opponents and the timings of his changes are infuriating at times. Our away form is really becoming a joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Idle Talk Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 One win in six games. I think it is time to stop pretending everything is ok. The formation needs tweaked away from home.
