Anyone familiar with the rumoured CEO? Hearts have been brilliantly ran above the pitch the last few years imo so seems sensible at least.

We have looked better out of possession recently though. There's a semblance of a press at least. Plug in players who can run and all of a sudden it sharpens up. I have hope. Gerrard used to drive me up the wall in his first couple of seasons with his selections and choices.

Mate with the best will in the world, you simply can't rebuild a whole entire squad and first XI in one window and expect to be successful. Certainly not in the professional game. This will take this window, the next, the one after and probably the one after that. Maybe more. We're not a part time outfit in the lowland league even if the governance of the club resembles it.

I'm of that mindset. Lawrence and Dessers just aren't up to it technically imo. Or physically. If you've got 2 players upfront who can't run, make a simple pass or hold the ball up then you're f***ed.

I went for McCausland - probably our brightest spark when he was on the pitch. I do think Clement is mishandling him a wee bit though.

We were probably shading the game as the better team until the sending off. You could see the ref was going to be a problem within the first 5 minutes.

In all my time watching the team I've never known players break down as much as this lot do tbf. At least the 9IAR lads were on the drink, these boys are just crocked. Or shitebags. Bit of both probably.

It's going to take the rest of this season and the next before we have a chance at the title imo.

Idc if they put us out, this Kyiv team are pish. We're not great like but they can barely register a shot on goal against 10 men.

That's an atrocious decision from the ref. His first wasn't a yellow either.

24% possession for us that half but 0 shots or on target for Kyiv. Dare I say, defensive masterclass?!

Good point.

Get to 60 level and put on Dujon and Cerny. Better yet get a goal and make those subs.

Says a lot that him and Barron are similar in that regard.

Probably been our best attacker tbf.

This refs terrible.

Damning trait of the whole team.

Is the stadium as empty as it looks? Looks half full on screen.

We look okay oop but can barely string 5 passes together.

Don't let Arteta hear that mate.

Plus, it is YOUNG. Hopefully we see that youthful enthusiasm.

Don't mind that lineup at all. Having Sterling and Cerny to come off the bench is probably sensible.

Would love sterling to start, Clement just doesn't want to know about it for some reason. Will seemingly only throw him into the midfield when we're ragged rather than start him.

Before anyone asks, idk how you can garner the ability of a striker through his shot placement. Roughly speaking though, I could see why Harry Kane would score highly hypothetically. Darwin Nunez would probably be one that flatters to deceive, because he just blams it at the keeper.

Saw some account come in for some heat because he reckons that with his shot placement data Miovski is a mid level championship striker.
