Hearts Home/Away - Match Thread

Hatch99

I believe we couldn't train on the pitch as we couldn't get a hotel due to the Edinburgh festival :rolleyes: Shouldn't make a blind bit of difference, we should still have plenty in hand to beat them. It'll be nice to see if Livermore has developed at all.

I wont even have a stab at the team as it could be anything, although we have plenty of midfielders missing apparently, including a certain croatian strangely enough !

VDV

Defoe

I think that'll be the line up we could see Townsend in there though on one of the wings depending on if Harry wants to protect some of the players or not.

ziedth

^ I'd say that will be the team too. It SHOULD be more then enough to win, I gotta a weird feeling about it though.

SuprSi

Are there two legs in this thing or just one?

mushykeogh

Two legs.

Wendell Gee

It looks like a pile of players are being held back to not cup-tie them. It's bollox, we signed keane , defoe, rocha, and they were all cup tied. Play the best team on the night.
We should be able for hearts with what's left. They aren't barcelona ffs.
Harrys doing a lot of yapping- too much. He listed all our injured and talked of who was left- but Niko was in neither camp. He seems to be the nw Robbie Keane- top top player, great lad blah blah blah, but never played.
Why did we buy Pienaar when we had Niko.
And while I'm ranting, Bassong looks broken. If Harry doesn't want him, get rid and bring in Cahill/Samba. Otherwise, build him back up, don't leave him to rot. I really like Harry, but his management of fringe players is not good, and it's getting worse.
One last thing. The idea that we can get in 4 players of quality for the money Chelsea are willing to pay is hogwash. If he's not happy, put a price tag on him, and let them all have a look. That price should be over £35m.
Team tonight
it shouldn't matte, but we need to get a game for any fit first choices ahead of Monday, so
Charlie/Walker, Kaboul Dawson and BAE
Lennon Kranjcar Townsend Bale
Defoe Pav
Give VDV 45 mins, but let Hearts run themselves out first

Thanks - realised after posting that it was a stupid question. This is the Europa league and nothing (except the final) is settled in one match!

mushykeogh

Livermore, JD and VDV start.

davycc

He probably will, and then drop one in in 2 weeks time

davycc

van the man! 1nil

Kiith

0-1 to Spurs.

Good play so far. Everyone really looks up for it.

dabbler2004

Yep it's on ITV 4, great start an away goal in the bag!

Hatch99

Rafa was 5/1, raging I didn't back em.

dabbler2004

Spurs with lovely quick passing and JD tucks it away nicely

Kiith

0-2 to Spurs.

Cracking goal from Defoe. The team are looking very good, but Hearts are making it pretty easy.

Leinstersqspur

What a goal by JD! 2-0

Sugarlumps

It's going to be a route.

dabbler2004

Livermore pops up with number 3!

Kiith

0-3 to Spurs.

Livermore with a really well worked goal. Some fantastic 1-2 passing going on.

Sugarlumps

Why can't we play in Scotland every week.

dabbler2004

The difference in English and Scottish football is there for all to see, Hearts are a poor side. Spurs haven't had to pass 2nd gear.

Wonder which paper is going to run "Tottenham Run Riot" tomorrow?

I'm not was meant to be in NYC this year but visa fell through still in hope for the future though in Dublin at the moment now though.

Everdead; how about 'Spurs rip the Heart from Midlothain' as the headline

Sound, i know a proper tottenham fan who runs a pub over there, was gonna hook you up, maybe some day down the road.

Sandro says he'll be back training in two weeks. Some Good News

Will do

Pacing Mule

Only joined this 30 min in but saw the goals at half time. All I've seen from JD other than the goal and one great attempt that was ruled offside is some brutal efforts, poor decision making and general crapness. Is he really looking sharp ? I know that sounds like a stupid question of a striker after a goal.

RoboClam

Bale makes it 4-0

mushykeogh

Great pass by Huddlestone.

Leinstersqspur

The Scots are getting dirty!

Pacing Mule

Will be getting dirtier now it's 5 !

COYS !!!!!!!!!

Kiith

0-5 now.

Great pass from Townsend sets Defoe through, who whips it into the box for Lennon to tap it in. Very nice counter.

dabbler2004

job done. Hopefully we can bring the 1st half performance to the Man United match. BAE was man of the match for me another solid display.

Hatch99

Looked strong and sharp.
Still doesn't disguise the fact we need a couple of bodies in.

tippspur

A good display by Spurs,knocked the ball around very well.

Liam Byrne

Robbie goes to LA but Spurs do a Hawaii!!!

Leinstersqspur

I'd have Walker as Man of the Match.
He was caught out once or twice but the Hearts lads really laid into him in the second half and he stood tall.
Great prospect!

everdead.ie

We won't have a match that comfortable in the PL this season.

everdead.ie

Livermore looked great today shame opposition were so poor we might of seen just how good he is but he really looked great looking for the ball one touch passing and a great goal too.

Sugarlumps

Walker definitely impressed, I’d also give him man of the match. He’s young, so he’s going to get caught out now and then, his speed more than makes up for this...unlike Charlie.

SuprSi

Nice result, and just what needed before the game on Monday. Good to see the young lads impressing and hopefully more of them will get game time next Thursday.
