He’s pretty poor in my opinion. Can see him leaving in the summer, especially if Dhanda comes in. Got tait coming through too who will be a far better player than Grant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grant is a more a 10, which Dhanda definitely has the ability to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be brutal, especially if the ref gives no protection. Hang on a minute, what am I saying "IF" for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiger Rudi Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Good addition to the squad. Not certain who will start next season.... Grant, Fraser or Dhanda? Will depend on Charlton's valuation of Fraser I suppose, he might not even be here. He will play his part no doubt in the coming weeks trying to impress. Loved his assist yesterday, lots more to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homme Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Yeah I seen one or two comments today about him not being the best. He was ok tbh. One of only one or two with urgency in that first half. A welcome addition to the squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slashishere Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 People writing him off already, seriously when are people going to accept that not every player hits the ground running. He's been here two minutes, he could be a seriously good player for us, and one not to be tempted in the long term by lower league England. Thank **** social media wasn't as rife in Sir Paul Hartley's first bit part season cause we might have lost out on something special Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

been here before Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 (edited) Nah he's shite. Thats 3 or 4 appearances he's had now and none of them have been a full game to get him up to speed. He's scored less than Shankland and about the same as Craig Gordon whose 40 and been out injured for a year. Imposter, wage thief and that. Get him punted the Kickback Peps have spoken.

Dia Liom Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Ok! Nothing between him and Grant at the moment, but Fraser has only been in the door a few weeks.

Philfigo Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Started well and showing for the ball but fell right out of it. If I was Grant i would be a bit pissed that he is getting game time ahead of me. Grants a strange one fought himself back into the team after Naismith says he wasn't really needed. Now he look to be back out the team again for Fraser and in all honesty I would be giving Tait and Denholm starts ahead of both Grant and Fraser.

But, but that mean the sentence "I am glad to having proven wrong" can't be used! Hoof haters must have another midfielder to moan about...Beni is apparently not good enough either (laughable) I see a tidy, midfielders who mops up AND can bring the game forward. Yes, he is a bit rusty, but he is a good addition and is likely to grow in stature as the end of the season progresses. How can that be s bad thing??

RobNox Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Have seen things in flashes from him that suggest he could be a decent addition, but it's still early doors and he's clearly still getting back to full match fitness, so the jury is still very much out in my opinion. Good thing for us is it's a low risk signing, he's only here on loan so if he doesn't make the grade he's at least a handy squad player to have for the rest of the season. He's clearly desperate to come back to Scotland and we're the best option he's going to have, so he has all the incentive to work as hard as he can to potentially secure a permanent deal, assuming we can work things out with Charlton.

Very harsh on Grant who in the last 10 games or so has played his part in an exceptional run of results. Despite his rather unatheletic running style Fraser (so far) has looked competent enough but surely Grant deserves a start over him, Grant must yet again be pretty pissed off.

Uncle Buck Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 He was quite quiet today but one thing I like about him is that he never watches a pass he makes. Constantly passing and moving, always asking for the ball. His set pieces are very good too. Snodgrassesque. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tynecastle Valhalla Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 He is a tidy player - good vision and passing abilities. he had that shot edge of the box that got blocked but looked like he connected well and was on target but his positioning wasn’t great for receiving the ball most of the first half we played better when he went off and introduced genuine pace and width Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All roads lead to Gorgie Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 He was always trying to get involved but I felt that he was playing too much in the area where Cochrane is most effective in the first half. In fact they were getting in each others way at times. Like Forrest as an example he needs time before we rush to judge and he does add to the options and already looks better than Lowry for what it's worth.

Thought he had a very good first half in an attacking role though, always looking for the ball and trying to play it forward. He's like Forrest with more energy but a bit less maturity to his play. He was no good playing the Beni role though, credit to Naismith for changing it and getting Tait on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fila Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 To early to make a call, don’t think he is up to match speed yet. Midfield will be interesting next year, as I think Grant and Beni will move Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
We_are_the_Hearts Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Like alll our players looked lost with this 3 at the back nonsense at home. No surprise everyone improved when went to a 4. Away to the old firm maybe but otherwise stick to a 4. Felt sorry for Dexter who was isolated, assuming Hof was meant to be giving him the same support Fraser gave Cochrane first half?
