KG1874 Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 The impact he had in 2 short spells was incredible. Double Scottish cup winner. Nearly hit 50 goals from midfield (anybody know how many assists?) A club legend who HATES the hibs, kissed the badge and told them to bolt his first goal against them and scored 2 in the final 😂 Best way to describe rudi for me is one of a kind.

Involved in 66 goals from 107 games. Could someone tag Ian black? (I dunno how to do it) to ask him his thoughts on rudi? Probably answered it a million times but surely the only one on here who’s trained and played beside him Edited October 13, 2023 by KG1874 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PapaShango Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 I remember he opted not to take a penalty for Dundee Utd in shoot out against us after we had a man sent off! 3 cup final goals and also netted in that shoot out.

It's very rare that we sign a player of that quality and then manage to hold on to him for any length of time. With a player like him in the team you've got a chance of winning any game no matter how badly the team as a whole is playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1971fozzy Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 In my 40 years following hearts he is easily in my top 5 players / legends. Some players just fit with clubs and get them. What a left peg. Easily in my all time starting 11. hated hibs with a vengeance and backed it up every time on the pitch.

Bunny Munro Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 I wonder how he would be remembered now without his second spell. He was brilliant on the first half of 05/06, did go off the boil a bit towards the end and left under a bit of a cloud. I just adore him.

Lone Striker Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Half of his entire career goals were scored for Hearts. His movement was so graceful.. Seldom injured. Had a great eye for an opening. His shots-on-target stat must have been way better than any other Hearts player I've seen. We (the club) were lucky to have him twice, and we (the fans) were lucky to witness this absolute gem of a footballer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
