Ali-1874 Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Source? Quality news if true - he's been superb since coming back from the last suspension. http://www.heartsfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/HeartsNewsDetail/0,,10289~1652665,00.html I agree with you, one of the only few players who has impressed me in the last few games.

Ibrahim Tall Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I can't read the link (work), but has he signed for Hearts from Kaunas? Or was he already signed?? Marius Zaliukas has signed a new deal which will keep him at Tynecastle until 31 December 2010. The Lithuanian international defender has been a stalwart in central defence for Hearts, playing in 26 league and cup games this season. He joined Hearts in August 2006 and has made a total of 100 appearances. Article continues The 25-year-old joins other Hearts young players such as Lee Wallace (21), Jamie MacDonald (22), Calum Elliot (22) and Jason Thomson (21) who have all recently signed new contracts as the club builds for the future. _ The December part seems a bit strange, is that the end of the Lithuanian season?

jamboinglasgow Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I think he has finally learnt to keep that temper under control and not do such rash challeneges so I am pleased that he is staying on for another year. Will be interesting to see who will be his partner in central defence next year, whether it is Jonsson or McGowan where Zal provides the experence or another experenced defender brought into the club.

londonjambo Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 _The December part seems a bit strange, is that the end of the Lithuanian season? No, its the end of December which, in 2010, is due to happen just before the start of January which, coincidentally, is the start of the transfer window. Some clubs apparently look for players at that time of year. We signed a whole team in January once ... how we laughed.

Aye, anyone who thinks he's not a good player can't be a Hearts fan. Of course, this criteria doesn't apply when you slag off Robbie Neilson though. For all those saying how well Zal has been playing of late, can I ask if you noticed which Hearts defender got under the ball from a bye kick last night, completely missing his header, thus allowing a certain Hobo player clean through on goal to win a penalty?

Who knows, could he be a captain in waiting? Yes please. A better player than Pressley, and a better human being to boot. Just what wee need wearing the armband.

Let's just gloss over the fact that Karapidis got on the wrong side of ratboy for about the 4th time in the game Not at all mate. He's been terrible over a number of seasons. Was just pointing out, to those that say he's been playing better of late (and I agree he has been a bit better of late), that despite "playing better", he still made the mistake that cost us the goal last night.....

Guest JamboRobbo Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I did notice that. But what was more important for me was the player who needlessly hauled Riordan to the floor. Could you tell me who that was? Karapidas knocked Riordon over. As to whether it was "needless", I'd say more it was "irrelvent". Whether he knocked him over for the penalty, or let him shoot, the mistake had been made (centre half missing the first ball), and if he Riordon hadn't been fouled, the goal was pretty much inevitable anyway (barring mi**** by Riordon) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Yet, somehow you've found a way to attribute blame to him. That's actually incredible. Let's also ignore that out of the two centre backs last night, Zal had a FAR better game. I'm astounded as to how Karapidis fouling Riordan is 'irrelevant' to us losing last night as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eckauskas Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Karapidis let Riordan goalside several times last night. I bet that was Zal's fault too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janie jones Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Good signing, any good side needs to build from the back and IMO we still need an experienced CB, a right back who is decent on the ball and another younger CB as cover. Not sure who is nearly ready from the youth set up but Zal and LW are two good youngish players who give us a good base to build from. If Zal can continue to curb his temper and add more concentration to his game he wil develop into a very good CB IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I said, "Great News and delighted it's been received with unanimous approval by all Hearts fans on this thread!!!" You're the one who says, "can't be a Hearts fan!" Never slag Hearts players! Haven't slagged Robbie Neilson! If I criticise on a match-to-match basis, it's not the same as a constant gripe whenever a specific player is mentioned. And, by the way, if Craig Levein had been fit and hadn't got himself born at the wrong time, he would have used his speed to cover for the fact that a defender had a ball go over his head, and thus saved another from giving away a penalty!!!
