If January's the soonest then we should expect that and be prepared; as I stated the other day, we'll just go and get someone like Meshino

I would expect so depending on who the manager is obviously. 
The other signings should be ready to go way before then so Its all good.

Yes, we'll just have to cross that bridge when we get there

Worst case scenario it gives Vargas 3 months to gradually bed himself in.

Anyone think that if he does well enough, he could be the first £1m signing at Hearts?

We can but hope

Said similar yesterday. If we are ever going to pay £1m for a player, it should be someone like Lowry imo.

[JAYEL]

Can he still submit a transfer request ?  😃

If we demonstrates his ability and potential through the season, I think it may be a good thing to do even at the price (especially if it puts us into group stage football next season.) I suspect though with Rangers they either bring him back into fold looking for him to play first team next season, or if they dont rate him for first team football at Rangers they will hoping a club with more money will take interest in him and put a much bigger offer in.

He already chose Hearts over clubs in England.

 

Maybe that 0-4 thrashing to their reserves did us some good as he loved playing at Tynecastle that much.

Not in terms of a contract (i.e. which clubs payroll he is on)

Rangers will recall him in January if they can I think. Great wee player.

They’ve totally changed their minds about that after 30 minutes for us and 90 minutes they’ve played ?

good shout. much as I hate the fact that we have to do business with one of the uglies from a pragmatic perspective he had one hell of a debut and was instrumental in us snagging three points. the lad is a joy to watch, there is close to zero chance we get to keep him if he continues to play like that imo. despise the sectarian baggage that comes with, but that's not on him.

From the BBC: 

”Rangers manager Beale gave his blessing to Alex Lowry's loan move to Heart of Midlothian. (Daily Record)”

 

What a guy that Beale is. I’m welling up…

 

[Mikey1874]

He'll beat his Rangers first team minutes at Hearts by the end of the month.

A bit too hesitant in the first half against Killie, his decision making could have been quicker, but he grew into the match. His corners are bloody beautiful.

I thought he was dreadful today but so was most of the others.

[alanjambo]

He's clearly a talented player but was anonymous today. I think he's probably better coming off the bench at the moment.

[whodanny]

Yep Lowry was poor today. Looked Lightweight.

[Ricardo Quaresma]

His timing for headers needs work

 

Tagawa, his timing for headers, very, very good, but I'm sure he's a bit taller than Lowry

[Prehen]

Thought Lowry was really poor. That follows a really poor show against Rosenborg.

[RS86]

Will be good once McKay is back fit so they are pushing each other. He offers a lot, but we maybe expect a lot from him too since he started out so well v St J.

Cracking signing,  big prediction here- but I think he'll be our best signing. 

 

Him, Mckay , Boycey, Oda, Shanks,  some liquid football is on the horizon.

 

Shame it's on loan but hopefully he doesn't impress that much -Would like us to sign him permanently

 

 

 

Just saw this. I think he is a mistake and could be one of our worst. Never going to roll his sleeves up. Never.

Does look more like a flair player than a worker like shanks. Boy has got talent but needs to probably up his work rate at games like killie if he ever wants to make it at Rangers or Hearts. Reckon he his better of the bench to change a games dynamic when opposition is tired . He  seemed lost on sunday not sure he knew where he was ment to be playing at times. Reckon Barry mckay is a better player as wee Barry works hard for the team but like most flair players can be frustrating at times.

Give the kid a break, like all the new arrivals it's going to take time to adjust and grow into the team.  He has bags of talent, you can see that, he just needs time to settle.

It's the instant judgements, plays first game- he's Messi 2nd game he's Jim Denny. Let's all just have a bit patience. See how things are in a month.

[Absolute Scenes]

holy fecking moly 😂

has played 3 games for us - sub appearance debut changed the game, then starts against difficult opposition away from home in a euro tie, and again against Killie at home - and is being labelled by one roaster as one of our worst ever loans

 

The term 'opinion' gets used too much as a crutch for idiots to lean on and say whatever rubbish they want, when the truth is they are as thick as pig shit

 

Writing off a player after less than 3 full games is a new low for this place

But dont entertain absolute mugs who write off players after 3 games and use the term "discussion" - what should be discussed is how their level of IQ has got them to a computer screen and logged in

I think everyone is a wee bit disappointed but I have zero doubts we'll improve. My main concern is Thursday and if we'll get it together in time.

Bang on mate it's embarrassing.

 

Then there's the other side where Vargas is being labelled a "cult hero", "star in the making" and "legend" after a 20 minute sub appearance. Mental.

Agree just a timing thing was always going to be tough getting players up to speed just being in the door and start of season. Being involved so early in Europe with no real match practice was always going to be tough. But looking at our squad we have some real good players lowry being one of them. Thursday will be tough but reckon we will scrape through  shanks and boyce to score.
