I've lost count of how many times we've regained possession only to lose it immediately with poor passing.

We’re either very good or Hearts are very disappointing two nil 

[Rousseau 10,602]

That was a beautiful finish from Cortes. 

 

It's more of a mid-block today, but the spacing between the players and the counter-pressing has been terrific; we collapse on the ball well, giving them no space. We're not pressing high, but we're aggressive when they enter our mid-block. 

 

We're still not using the ball well enough when we win it back, but I see that as something that will improve with further coaching.

Sterling is becoming my favourite current player. Fecking love his attitude.

We are good today, no doubt. Ridvan has been outstanding (@Cammy)   😉   as have Tav and Lawrence. Dio and Cortes, what great upgrades PC has brought in.

How has Dessers missed the target with that header?! 

Because he didn't attempt it from 30 yards out with his back to the goal. 

 

He would have nailed that one. 

[Rousseau 10,602]

What a f*cking cross that was! 

 

Absolute filth from Souttar. 

[stewarty 2,025]

Terrific first half.  Finding a new gear when in front, is exactly what we all wanted to see.  More second half please!

[der Berliner 3,744]

What a game. Stunning goals, and Ridvan sensational.

Cortes has been a very impressive signing. Is he just a 6 month loan?
