Tour22 Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 (edited) The next signings could make or break our season. Especially if we don't get them over the line in time for the first couple of matches. No Mckay, and Oda seems to have a niggling injury. That leaves Shankland and Forrest our only match fit attackers. Thats an extremely scary thought. How could we even judge our new management team if we do deal them with that situation.

Maybe more if an opportunity presents itself or unexpected outgoings happen. As for injuries, if we get a series of them again then I want us out of the Oriam and the next available transfer budget spent on the best available sports scientists and fitness coaches money can buy.

Funds from them go to non playing projects. Which is fair enough but surely frees up the money that would've been spent on non playing projects for other purposes?

Renoir Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 I'm sorry but if the hearts management team are satisfied with the recruitment then there are fundamental questions to be asked. I get the ask for first team players rather than squad fillers but surely they need to be in and playing together before competitive football starts!? We're a right back and pacey forward player away from that and need at least another forward in as backup. The likes of Connor Smith will never make it at Hearts and youth should be challenging the first team squad, not filling it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think we'll stick with Atkinson for RB, and he was decent after Naismith came in, plus we probably have guys we can put in there as cover, like Neilson and Sibbick. We feel a bit short in forward areas now. Shanks, mckay, Boyce and Oda probably the starters but not great options outwith those 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
