He signs, he will have a song/chant for him within 8 weeks of the start of the season (a positive one! 🙄) And the slaters no Eastenders will shy away and have the red neck to praise and chant about Shanklands when he delivers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy's on a massive downward spiral, anyone who can't see that knows the sum total of eff all. Poor success rate of scoring to chances .can't take a penalty. runs about with high heels on. when confronted with an opponent, he just collapses. Ridiculously poor energy levels, breathing out his arse and subsequently slowing the game down. , No more than a squad player (hopefully) or offload to Aberdeen for £200,000 or so.we need to move on Sorry but that is absolute nonsense.

Lawrence was born in August 1995, in Glasgow, and mentioned his first footballing experience: “I started at Baillieston Juniors. I only played there for a few months and then the Hearts scout was at one of my games so I ended up going and training with them for about six months to a year. “Then I ended up going through the Academy when I was turning eight until I was 12/13.” Tefal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they rate him, of course it matches with their aspirations! They (or certainly Robbie at least) clearly think he could score plenty of goals for us and help us be more successful, which does match with their aspirations. What doesn’t match with their aspirations is your opinion of him, but I doubt even you'd expect them to base their signing targets on your opinions!

Aussie Jambo Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Not a post about players but coaching staff. We definitely need more experienced sport scientists in our camp as that Cup Final game showed the difference in fitness. Sevco played 120m full pace midweek in Euro Final then out ran us in extra time 3 days later? I really think it’s all well having good players but they need to be supreme athletes nowadays. Not fag smoking, beer swilling, pie eating players of old. Not acceptable anymore. If you’re not 100% at you peak fitness level they shouldn’t play first team.

While I don't disagree with what you are saying it is very important to remember that during the final Rangers made 5 changes to the team who played midweek and were able to bring their best midfielders and strengthen in other areas as the game wore on. The depth of their squad played as big a part as their fitness levels. Unfortunately due to finances it is unlikely we will ever have the luxury of having a squad with enough size and quality to be able to rest half a team going into a cup final and it not damaging the overall quality on the pitch.

How we were treated the season before really impacted on our team’s base level fitness. Less games, then the start stop of training meant players’ fitness was badly affected - so when we came up, we were immediately in a negative situation with regard fitness compared to the other premiership teams. Whilst they were able to improve on this during the season the damage was done and come the final there was absolutely nothing left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference in fitness was more to do with us having half a team, pretty much the whole spine, recovering from injuries and working their way back to fitness. We didn't have players of that quality on the bench. Rangers had a hard shift earlier in the week but they had more than adequate replacements in their squad to deal with that.

PapaShango Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Feels as though Shankland is signing and I'm really looking forward to seeing him in a Hearts shirt. I think his all round game is better than most give him credit for and I think for the first time in years we are going to have a proper goalscorer playing through the middle of the park. Hopefully he gets off to a good start and bangs in a few the first couple of weeks. I think if he gets motoring and we supply chances he could score a few. I think he's 26 or 27 now so is approaching his best years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
