Biglia their DM has 58 caps for Argentina. He'll be the one who dictates the game from deep. Ozil if fit is one of the greatest assisters of all time. Can't give him space to pick a pass.

BossmanDaz Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Despite recent performances, looking forward to this, whether I'm watching it at home or at Tynecastle. Yes, we are up against it, yes, recent performances are a concern but it's a big European night and we need to get behind them on the night. I don't think anybody is under any illusions that they are far better in every department, but, if we get after them then maybe, just maybe, we can catch them napping with a touch of complacency and make it an uncomfortable night. Even in what is highly likely to be defeat, we at least need a performance to show the last few performances have been a blip and not a worrying trend. We need to do our part though and lift the players, even if they have been poor in the last few games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC_92 Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 On Kiomourtzoglou's work permit, I've been looking at some of the other foreign players signed in the Premiership this season to gauge how long it might take between signing and permit arriving. Kyle Rowles 9/6 - 16/7 (37 days) Elie Youan: 25/6 - 27/7 (32 days) Bojan Miovski 28/6 - 22/7 (24 days) Marijan Cabraja 13/7 - 27/7 (14 days) Duk 15/7 - 18/7 (3 days) Aziz Behich 27/7 - 10/8 (14 days) In short, **** knows. It's only been 7 days since we announced him so it seems unlikely he'll be available for this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won't like playing in Gorgie just like we don't like playing on plastic pitches at livi Yes, I've heard of them - I'd gather most that watch the champions league will remember they beat Manchester United a couple of seasons back. Yes, I've seen them play. My personal opinion is we need to watch them on the left as they are most dangerous on that side. Lucas Lima at full back and Chouiar at left wing will cause us problems. Okaka up top is just a beast, albeit not a prolific scorer. Interested to see how Bertrand Traore plays, if he does, as I've always thought he was dangerous when he gets going but he is a bit clumsy. I am certainly no expert on Turkish football but I do think they are quite a bit better than us. No team will enjoy Tynecastle but I think they are used to an atmosphere given the Turkish reputation. They don't play in front of many fans at home themselves usually but they are not well liked in Turkey so when they visit the likes of Galatasaray, Fenerbahce, Besiktas, Trabzonspor that have 30k+ attendances that don't like them then I would think they will cope at Tynecastle. Just my opinion, hopefully I've overestimated them but it will be a very difficult night imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
