mfc88 73 Report post Posted March 5, 2020 With Aberdeen playing hibs, 3 points would be absolutely massive here. Livi playing away from home as well. Not much choice but to field the same lineup that started last night. Unless we can somehow play both long and watt? Don't see it myself but both showed their ability on wed - long was class and some finish from watt. Cant decide whether or not I'd settle for a point now, given hearts' recent rejuvenation.

Yassin 757 Report post Posted March 5, 2020 Watt seems the type to be pretty fired up about returning to Tynecastle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
couttsy 91 Report post Posted March 5, 2020 Same formation, Watt in for Hylton, Aarons on the left, Long on the right. Alternatively 3-5-2 with Tait, Gallagher & Hartley, Grimshaw, Campbell, Ohara, Polworth & Aarons, Long & Watt. I’d take a draw now...... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe at the start or maybe to mix it up a bit in second half. As mentioned with recent Hearts results a draw would be decent but I’ll go for us winning 3 to1. If any wants to give me a few quid I’ll put a bet on it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The African 481 Report post Posted March 6, 2020 Not a ground that has many happy memories for me. Hearts have shown an improvement of late, but the one thing about this league is that, through 2nd to 12th, consistency is in short supply. Let's hope we can catch them on a return to the form that sees them in the relegation dogfight. A win and three points could be massive for us, but right now I'd take a point..

GazzyB 1,290 Report post Posted March 6, 2020 Think we are gonna absolutely scud them tbh. 3-0 to us, Long, Aarons and a late Turnbull ping. Polworth to rip them apart with 3 assists. We were really good with the ball on Wednesday, Tynecastle is a big park and most of all Hearts are absolutely shite. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Smallest in the league, 100m x 64m For reference, the biggest are Celtic Park, Easter Road, Ibrox, McDiarmid Park and whatever Hamilton's ground is called this week, all at 105m x 68m. Fir Park is third smallest at 100m x 68m Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is Long available. Hopefully they took him off as precautionary measure not to aggravate the knocks he took against Ross County 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neilwell86 172 Report post Posted March 6, 2020 Polworth and Mugabi doubts, I think we need to keep three in the middle of the park otherwise risk been over run. Obviously Turnbull on the bench now and i'm sure it will remain that way. Only other option is Maguire but does that leave us lacking creativity in the middle?

We'll play 4 or 5 in the middle of the park as usual. Playing only 3 or even 4 there risks being overwhelmed. Again we'll need to bottle up our wings.

Another few days of training plus no game time on Wednesday, if he's fit enough then get him involved. Polworth and Turnbull taking turns sliding in Long on goal, ooooft.

gaz7 102 Report post Posted March 6, 2020 i was watching training for a bit today and noticed mugabi wasnt there and in their half pitch 8v8 games where there are 3 teams of 8 with 1 team sitting off for 5 minute games polworth and turnbull were just watching. they had been taking part in everything before that though and i had to go before there 11v11 game started so dont know if they took part in that. Hopefully was just a precaution as obviously that many bodies in tight space injurys are more likely. Hope 1 or other will be on pitch tomorrow. Noticed adam Livingstone there also i thought he was out on loan. Also their finishing drills ndjoli always in centre with long and watt so robinson i think sees him as central striker.

Hope Springs 77 Report post Posted March 6, 2020 We have not been so good since the winter break but Hearts have been sooo poor all season. Two results - one against a dreadfully mediocre Rangers and another in a game against local rivals that needs no motivation - doesn’t transform them into anything we should fear. I think it might be close but if our midfield is as good as they were this week I think Long is due a goal or two and we should just about edge it. COYW!
