Tasavallan Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Neither Sibbick or Moore have nailed themselves starting places in Souttar's or Halkett's absence so play the strongest team.

If I was his future employer or a future team mate I wouldn't want someone who would be prepared to give less than 100% for his club. Souttar will know that Fair enough. I've always liked Souttar, but I never got the feeling he was 100% bought in to Hearts. In 6 years he rarely joins in goal celebrations and is often one of the first up the tunnel. Could be nothing, might just be that kind of guy, but never come across as overly passionate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Shoreditch Heart Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 I was as upset as anyone on here when he signed the pre contract with that shower, but if he's fully fit we have to play him from the start. He's a great footballer and I reckon he will give his all so that we will remember him positively - c'mon The Hearts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mods - if you can add a poll to this thread that would be good as I don't know how to but think it will be interesting to see how many people think he should play) I am going for yes - he is still a Hearts player and one of our best too. Has to play if fit. He will want a winners medal simple as that and is a professional. If Robbie trusts him that's good enough for me. He along with Halkett and Kingsley give us our strongest chance of winning the cup. The alternatives for me don't bear thinking about.

Marvin Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 2 hours ago, Absolute Scenes said: he is a complete professional regardless of what people of his career choices. When he pulls on a hearts jersey he only ever gives his best. In his final game for the club that helped set his career alight, he will want to lift the cup with us. I would hope he'd want to end his legacy with a cup win and winners medal. Rangers players won't go in too hard on him, aftter all they won't want to injure their future colleague.

tian447 Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 This is Souttar's last hurrah in a Hearts shirt, where he's been an integral part of the team for 6 years. He's made over 130 appearances for us, which puts him somewhere in the top 10% of all time player appearances in the history of the club (according to a quick look at London Hearts). He has spent time as club captain, and has been one of the first names on the team sheet when he hasn't been out through injury. If people think he's going to spaff that up the wall and play like shit to sabotage us over the tribute act he's signed a pre-contract with, then you need to give your head a wobble. He has never shown signs of having questionable integrity before, and has tried his hardest in every game he's played for us. Go out there for one last solid showing in maroon, and win the cup. That is how he'll want it to be on Saturday. He will not be celebrating with a team who's shirt he hasn't even pulled on for the first time yet.

Jambo 4 Ever Posted May 19, 2022 Author Share Posted May 19, 2022 Also there are plenty of players who know in the mind that they are moving on to a different team at end of season but will still give 100% in the final games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hearts1975 Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Of course we should play him if he is fit I genuinely believe first and foremost he will want to win it for us, and before he leaves.

Fans and professional football players are very different, for them it's a living, and a few years spent in the system will quickly show them that supporting a club means nothing at any level if you're not good enough.

Taffin Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Torn on this. Don't doubt his professionalism but to win this we need people willing to play out of their skin and to really want it.

joondalupjambo Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 My issue is there is physically fit and match fit. John knows where is at and Robbie has to be 100% sure on both. Like Halkett, I have my doubts in relation to both fitness requirements. I think Robbie is going to gamble on one of them and I do not know which one.
