MOTM Poll - Tottenham vs Heart of Midlothian

[Groot]

Hearts restored some pride tonight where two relatively young teams put on a decent show

 

The back 5's performance was night and day compared to last week, Eggert Jonsson didn't look out of place facing up to an EPL level midfield, Arvy looked dangerous and Gordon Smith showed clever running and movement not seen from a Hearts striker in many a year

 

Stand out for me was Ryan McGowan, faced with a tough opposition like Townsend after a nervy initial 5 minutes he put in a tremendous performance proving his showing at Ibrox was not a one off

 

Poll will close on Tuesday evening

 

Sticky please mods

 

[JAYEL]

just

[iscoredatEEP]

It was close but I went for the Eggman

[vegas-voss]

I thought McGowan and Smith first half but overall Grainger who I thought was the best player on the park in the 2nd half,That 70yrd pass to Templeton was brilliant.

That's how I saw it. Grainger was superb.

[Ricardo Quaresma]

Great penalty save and central defence making very good strides now

[jamieson-smith]

looking good for the future

[Harry Palmer]

Eggert Jonsson.

 

I realise I've said otherwise but when it comes to the crunch...the hair sways it I'm afraid.

[gadgey55]

Gowser for me

[BobbyJenkins]

Went with Ryan McGowan but almost said Robinson for that wee turn on the edge of our box. He looks tidy and composed and will only get better imo.

[Luton Jambo]

Several stand out players tonight but for me McGowan just edges it.

[nelboy1874]

Thought McGowan, Grainger, Smith and Jonsson had good games, but went for Scott Robinson. Delighted to be seeing him in his best position in midfield.

[Fraggle]

Grainger sneaks it over the rest for me.

 

 

Lee who????????????????

[coatbridgejambo]

no brainer (RM) not a bad player in the team tonight tho it has to be said

[Kid A]

Chose Jonsson, had a very good game coming back into midfield.

 

Also, some people have picked Skacel, in my opinion he just wasn't in it, gave a way passes and should've passed the ball to Smith when 1 vs 1 with Cudicini.

[The Future's Maroon]

I actually thought Rudi looked poor, he looked unfit and unable to keep up with the pace.

 

 

I went for Gowser, but Jamie Mac, Smith and Eggy were very close behind.

[1874robbo]

Gowser for me

This

[JamboAberdeen]

Picked Smith for his hard work despite being isolated.

 

Eggert and McGovan were also stand-out.

Especially Eggert added selection headache to Paulo, definitely more mobile+aggressive than Adrian.

[heartsfc_fan]

Had to think about this one for a bit (nice problem to have eh )

 

McGowan for me.

 

 

 

Jonsson, Grainger, Zalikuas, Smith and MacDonald were also good aswell.

 

In fact, there wasn't one poor performance!

[Cabbie754]

Thought Grainger did well but voted for McGowan all players deserve credit but was disapointed in Rudi tonight

[JamboJen]

First thought was McGowan so voted for him.

 

Honourable mentions also to Eggert, Robinson and Grainger.

 

Can't wait for Sunday!

[Charlie-Brown]

McGowan's had some criticism after his performances dipped a wee bit after a good opening day display at Ibrox - responded tremendously last night .... also have to mention MacDonald, Robinson & Smith - I think last night proved they are certainly good enough to play for Hearts first team!

[hearts_crazy]

McGowan by some distance

 

Who the **** voted for Rudi BTW, Rudi Skacel and his mum? He was rank rotten.

[bighusref]

I don't even think it is a contest. Scott Robinson by a country mile, imo.

[linkin- hearts]

That's how I saw it. Grainger was superb.

Yep, Grainger for me too

[rossthejambo]

Was a tough choice between McGowan, Grainger and Jonsson. Went with McGowan.

 

 

[novoman]

great team effort.....big oz for me

[rudi must stay]

Gordon Smith, gave an experienced defence a tough match.

[gogadgetlegz]

Skippy is a real player. Think he'll be able to put in a great season for us this year, but fear it'll be his only full one in maroon, he'll be on radars after that. Dunno if the pitch at Tynie is big enough for him to do his thing. He'll win us a semi at hampden with his marauding

I might be wrong (not a new experience) but I think WHL isn't much bigger than Tynie

[Vladster]

Difficult to single out 1 player but i thought Jonsson had a cracking game

[Hannibal Lecter]

The vote could go to quite a few after the other night but McGowan for me too.

[Chris Benoit]
