Hearts news: Fan views on the one thing nobody is talking about

We asked you to tell us the one thing nobody is talking about at Hearts.

Here’s what some of you said:

Andy: The current league table reflects how far the rest of the teams are from Celtic! Rangers are having their worst run for decades and the gap from them to the rest is still massive. That in itself highlights just how far Hearts and other hopefuls find ourselves. European qualifications are now limited.

Steve: How on earth does Andrew McKinlay still get involved in appointing managers? His track record is abysmal. This time he’ll blame analytics. Time to go as he has no understanding of the game and what it takes. Nice to get a manager with a proven track record, not an ex-player or a failed coach.

Alexander: Despite signing Yan Danda, Blair Spittal and Sander Kartum we still lack a player like Stevie Fulton who can cut an opposition defence to pieces with a single pass. This lack of quality is hampering us. Jorge Grant is not the answer and needs to go. We need quality in midfield or we will not progress next season.

Anon: Elton Kabangu had seven goals in seven games from centre forward, but is being put out wide to accommodate Lawrence Shankland. Why is no one asking why Shankland hasn’t been benched and the armband passed back to Craig Gordon? We were much better without him, and this change seems based off one assist v Dundee which we’ve not repeated.

Kevo: The transition period from possession-based football to a more cutting approach is not easy this time of year. A third game in a week has caught us out while players acclimate to the helter-skelter nature of Scottish football. A good summer will see us return to Natural Order, no worries.

Chris: Most overlooked thing for me is our pitch. We paid a lot of money for it but when you look around other playing surfaces in Scotland I would say we have one of the best in the country. It’s a pity 80% of teams who visit refuse to play football on it and are happy with a point.

Steve: The lack of pace in our midfield has been evident for years. Shankland should have been stripped of the captaincy ages ago, he’s frustrated and petulant and too slow to play so deep. Bring back Calum Patterson as club captain to marshall the defence!
