(Maybe one or two small things but not worth mentioning when your team has won 5-0🙂). A beautiful night. You could see they were beat after the first goal. How did they run the Huns so close?

Sloppy at times still but completely clinical and our attitude was spot on. Never hid, and there was a distinct lack of taking the safe option, which was good to see. Although easier to take risks when so far ahead I guess The clinicality has been all that's been missing; we simply need to replicate that on Sunday and it won't matter who the officials are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

151 Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Just home, absolutely delighted with that. It was always going to happen where there was a week where everything clicked and we started hitting the net more than not - and what a better week to do it. Cannot pick faults in any player tonight at all, special mentions for me to Hill, Smith, Snodgrass and Devlin. Obviously Gino was clinical aswell and every player was excellent but those 4 were fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems to vary his penalties quite a bit, making it hard for keepers to anticipate where he might put it. He puts them low to either side of the keeper, some he lifts above the keeper, some he places, some he smashes. That's 11 from 11 since joining us. Given our inconsistency in converting penalties over recent seasons, it's great to have a guy you could almost put your house on to score.

All roads lead to Gorgie Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 What a great performance from the team. Shanks might be slightly off form but he and Gino were working their socks off and Snodgrass controlled the game. What a finish from Smithy, there's still life in the old dog. Grant and Humphry should have made it more emphatic and Oda look sharp in his Cameo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaggy2 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 8 hours ago, thegreatsd said: I weirdly still have a fond memory of this game. I was a youngster back then. I was early to bed as my dad said he would record it off the radio onto a cassette and I could listen to it in the morning before school. I woke up early and listened to it in my bed and walked off to school with a big smile! My Dad used to have stacks of C-90 cassettes with the second half of Hearts away games on them. 1548 (Forth 2) used to cover Hearts/Hibs away games and were only allowed to broadcast the 2nd half. I obviously love football but back then felt a lot better than the overkill we suffer from these days. That run in 1985/86 we were on Radio Scotland most weeks.

TBF there were four clubs this afternoon before the match. . . 3 hours ago, JimmyCant said: Aberdeens whole game plan was to swamp Snodgrass. They didn’t account for Devlin returning to form or Sibbick firing a 60 yard missile in to Smith. Or Ginelly opening his bag of amazing soccer tricks. Snodgrass taking the heat allowed us to play. Yes he lost easy possession a few times when he just wanted too much time but St Mirren had made the tactic work quite well. Teams have a decision to make now. Man mark him deep and stop him running the game or leave him and hope he doesn’t. He’s a tremendous player. I believe the coaching staff saw what St. Mirren did and knew that it would become the book on us. We went long and with high wings all night looking for those chances in behind. Aberdeen played as high a line as you'll see against us trying to get that pressure on the midfield, and we went right around it. Enormous credit to Smith as well. The right and midfield combo of Sibbick, Snodgrass, Hill, Smith, Shankland, and Gino was rampant tonight, just pouring in chance after chance after getting behind them.

Luckies1874 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Not long home after a few drinks. What a result. Another fantastic night for Heart of Midlothian Football Club. The momentum we have going for us right now both on and off the park is a credit to everyone who loves our team. So many people are contributing to making Hearts something we have all craved. Robbie and the squad deserve huge credit for their focus since the WC break, to take 17pts form 21 has been an absolutely excellent return and the great thing is we still, despite tonights score, haven't clicked like we can and will. So many good performances and positives but it was great to see Smith and Devlin scoring after taking a bit of stick recently (I've been guilty of it too). Delighted for them. Hill looks a sensational loan signing, Sibbick improving by the week and Zander a brilliant replacement for big Craig. What was noticeable to me today is that there is all of a sudden serious competition for places and a far greater depth to our subs; Humphrys, Oda, Grant, Forrest and Kingsley coming on shows that. On to Sunday. As ever it's all about what we do and how we go about things. My impression is this one means a hell of a lot to RN and he is going to have us seriously fired up. Lets ****ing do it.

Possibly his best ever game for us. This humble pie is going down a treat. I’d have given him MOTM but Hill looks like he’s been here for ages. For all the slack passes I STILL thought Snodric was quality too. That’s a couple of teams targeted him and if the Hobos do it too more fool em. Also delighted for Devlin.

The thing is, there were elements of our performance last night that were not that impressive - some of the passing in midfield was very sloppy. But that's what makes last night so telling about the gulf in class between the two teams - we strolled to victory whilst rarely getting out of second gear.
