Was I don’t think he has the pace anymore at nearly 30 years of age looks more comfortable playing more central.

Coulson is a winger. Maybe push him forward, bring back Eck to LB and get Cammy more central.

He’s a left back and looks like he’s brought in to play left back.

I think he would suit us much better playing further toward as he the only one with the ability to run at people and beat them.

Doesn’t look like eck will be coming back into the squad

Anyone know if we trying to get Liam Smith back ? Did we even ask ? Haven't seen him mentioned/featuring in any Hearts games recently.

Liam was a  Jack Ross signing. New manager has his own plans. In fact, when you think about, with Jack signing Paul McGinn, he maybe already accepted that there was no chance of getting Smith back.

Very decent player to have at the Club. Was given a contract by Jack. Important part of the team and dressing room. No reason to  offload him when the recruits are so poor.

Missing 22 league games last season is reason enough to offload him.

No point in having a decent player if he is sitting in the stands most weeks.

Does Stubbs know anything about him.

Did he start the other 14 games, there were a good few games where he was an unused sub as Davis and Baird were both playing.

Kpekwa lumbering about the box and diving in for the Sunderland penalty was a painful sight.  If that's the speed this guy is going to move at we are going to need someone with the pace of Usian Bolt alongside him to cover his endless mistakes.

He said in an interview after killie that he's not fully match fit but will be by the start of the season

Backed it up further on Saturday by asking for big Yards shorts.

He seemed to get positive comments after the Killin match, along with King. They didn't become bad players in a week. They all need time.

Not making an excuse for them, but perhaps a few of the more recent arrivals are building up fitness still and were basically knackered playing three games in a week, and catching up in training?

we'll see how they look tomorrow night, bit early to write them all off.

And.... only have players there who are committed to the management team and club. 

M and S used to say........ Nobody here doesn't want to work with us.  Another way of saying buy in OR move on.

Mario Bilate, who was training with us, has returned to Holland.

(Shame his new club got his name wrong)!
