Snake Plissken Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 I liked him. A solid, versatile player who'll be very useful over the course of a season. When I heard we were looking at getting a former player back, I wouldn't have thought about this guy. I doubt his wages will be astronomical either. But like Bouzid, let's not play him up front!

Drylaw Hearts Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 I can confidently say that after my prediction last pre-season that the relationship between Manager and Owner would deteriorate to the point of no return (all because of player recruitment) there is absolutely no chance of this happening this time. No way. I will not run the risk of being of being 100% spot on for 2 summers on the trot. I've decided I'm going to run with Vic and the lads this time and just mock those pesky hat-kickers.

Charlie-Brown Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Obviously his current club (whoever that is) must be happy enough to let him go. He did okay when he played but nothing anymore special than the likes of Jonsson or even Stevenson. Seems another waste of salary to me. The traitor that is George Burley has stolen Andy Dorman from us for his Crystal Palace team so we had no option but to bring back Mrowiec on trial .... also Jefferies wanted Mulgrew to sign until Vlad seen the green & white hoops under his jumper!!

Only a Game Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 If my choice was down to picking the Ian Black of last season, or the Mroweic of the season before, I'd pick Mroweic every single time. However if our level of quality involves us having to pick either of those two players regularly, then we're not going to improve much this season. The important thing here is, I want, and we desperately need, ANY signing to be solely the choice of the manager with no pressure whatsover from the owner to take ANY player. Lets face its his neck on the line here and its a line that has no tolerance for failure. If JJ looks at him, likes him and most importantly, really wants him, and its not to the exclusion of someone else JJ wanted, I dont have much problem with it TBH. As for the laddie Snapkauskas (or whatever his name is) we've got around a 25% satisfactory rating concerning players who originated from Lithuania including several complete dumplings and at least 3 notable successes. Lets see what category he falls into before the toys go out the pram. This is what our owner does. Its a huge part of the reason he bought us in the first place. We should be used to it by now.

Jambo, Goodbye Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Adrian Mrowiec is a good player, he did well and might do even better next time round. Especially with having a 'proper' manager in charge and not some imbecile who sees fit to play him up front Get rid of Ruben and we might possibly have a better player on lesser wages. Oh and he's prob better than Bouzid at CB too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cut The Crap Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Strange one indeed. I don't remember Mrowiec the strong, midfield enforcer that many on this thread seem to. My recollection is that he was mostly injured and indeed mostly looked as if he was injured whenever he did make it onto the field. To be fair, he did provide an assist at Tannadice by falling over in the penalty box and allowing the ball to bounce off his knee. Will he improve the first-team? I doubt it. He may vie with Ryan Stevenson for a place on the bench, or with Ian Black for the coveted position of chief boot cleaner. Perhaps his main purpose is to establish to what extent the manager is prepared to play the game. Good luck, Jim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drylaw Hearts Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Mrowiec had one decent match 1st time round - v Aberdeen away. His other 5 starts (yes a whole 5 starts) he was played at LM, RM and even CF = he wasn't good enough to get a game in his favoured position. I think we'd be better giving this guy a large body swerve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Statto Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Stats on Adrian Mrowiec; Last season, his club - Arka Gdynia - finished 1 point above the relegation places in the Ekstraklasa (Poland). Mrowiec played 25 league games and 1 cup game last season. In the league games he played, Arka Gdynia won 6, drew 6 and lost 13. They also lost their cup tie AET. They conceded 31 goals in the 25 games, an average of 1.24 goals per game, in the 5 games AM didn't appear in, they conceded 8 goals, an average of 1.6 goals. Arka G. conceded 22.5% fewer goals with AM in the team. Mrowiec recieved 6 yellow cards plus one red card for a second bookable offence. He scored 1 goal last season (plus a spectacular own goal). In the 10 games Mrowiec played for Hearts, we only conceded 5 goals, we kept 4 clean sheets in his last 4 games for the club. We won 5 of the games he played, drawing 3 and losing 2.

Victor Meldrew Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Excellent news. Clearly a JJ pick, along with the Lithuanian U-21. Great to see JJ being given full autonomy and we're not just repeating the same mistakes as previous years. Plus as an added bonus this will give rossthejambo and victorian something to frantically try and convince people not to talk about. And nice to see you're not just repeating the same old posts as in previous years. This must be like christmas for you - a chance to moan about Kaunas players again. Enjoy.

JamboJen Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 I'll try and get in and out of this thread before the pavement dancers take over. I liked Mrowiec when he was here first time around and hoped we would keep both him and Kello at the start of last season so I'm happy for JJ to be having a look over him. As for the young guy, I think we all agree that bringing in young players with potential (and playing U21 for any country shows a decent level of potential IMO) is the way the club should be going so again I'm happy for JJ to make his mind up about him. I can't be bothered giving my opinions on trials etc as they're not going to make the slightest bit of a difference to anyone on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie-Brown Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Mrowiec is a limited player but he did a good job in the european run in under Csaba and as statto posted above his stats in a Hearts jersey were positive in terms of games won, goals conceded etc and he did a decent job as a stopper in various roles and his effort & commitment wasn't in question. Neil Berry was just as limited a player as Mrowiec but perhaps he was more popular because he was a local lad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
