You've decided he is shite. As have one or two others. You may turn out to be right. But I would say based on the body of evidence to date, it is inconclusive. He spent most of last season injured. He is now on his 3rd manager in a year and a brand new style of play. If we get to December and he/we dont look any better in the goals for column then you might be proved right. Until then, how about we cut him some slack and give him a little support?

I dont think he is struggling. This is the longest he has stayed fit for us, so Im kinda hoping he will get better as time goes on. In no hurry to chase him out the door as I think we will need options until Sule, Robinson, Nicholson and Stuparevic all get fit (although, I fully expect some of them wont play for us again).

The newspapers (I know!) did report an offer of £800k from a Norwegian club that was turned down. I accept that the report could be a lot of shite, but hardly something to pull someone up about.....

I know, but they might come back with an improved one before the window closes......

Lots of St Johnstone fans in the other place, being very complimentary of Hendry. All saying we have a good striker on our hands. Should come with the health warning that these are the same guys that thought Bair was shite......

Apparently his work permit hasnt gone through yet..........

Had a look at his highlights reel and most of his goals are into feet. The odd header but few and far between. Scores a few different types of goals which is good although most with his right foot. Hadnt realised he had scored 2 against us at McDairmid a couple years back. Not sure he offers anything different from Stama. Maybe we are gonna accept the money from the Norwegian team?

Dont remember him at St Johnstone so no idea if he will be any good or not. If we are using analytics to identify targets this season you have to trust he is the type of player we need. We will find out soon enough.

Hearts appear to be a team in transition with McInnes tinkering with his squad in search of his best 11. They have a lot of players and some of them are very good, so how this goes could rely on whether he finds the right formula against us. We have Slattery to come back in, but a few of our players limped off on Saturday, so it will depend on our recovery who is available. Hopefully they all just had cramp given what they put into the game! Osong, clearly isnt going to be fit enough to start, he looks a longer term project, so its likely to be Stama up top, unless we have signed Callum Hendry and he is ready to hit the ground running (unlikely). We really need to work hard on delivery in training this week. Get Said on the right (he has no left foot), TJ on the left and have Slattery and Just working on passes down the channels for Stama to run onto. I suspect it will be another very close game with only a goal in it either way. Id settle for another hard earned draw and keep the unbeaten run going for another week.

We will see. Its still a work in progress with a load of new players still trying to get to know one another and get used to the new managers style/instructions. I think its great we are still unbeaten at this stage with so much obvious growth in the team still to come. Osong will offer something different when fit and if we have signed Callum Hendrie, then we at least have options and competition for places.

We definitely see this differently. The delivery from Longelo and Sparrow from very good areas was rotten pretty much all game. Maswanhise and Said not much better. If any of the numerous opportunities that presented themselves had been delivered across the 6 yard line, we might not have had to go to extra time. For me, our problems in the last 3rd are more down to poor decision making than anything else. Of course, every player can always do better, and Stama needs to do more with the limited chances he is being given, but his work rate and movement are generally fine in this system.

And the Inverness Caley (oldskool not ICT) fans who were there, as there game had been cancelled, made more noise than us! "We are The Caley 'Well" over and over and over! Think we got scudded 3-0?

Agreed. He totally shat giving their player a second yellow on the touchline when Longelo did him down the line and he sent him up in the air. It was a yellow all day long so he should have been off. Need to see the SOD penalty again but looked like a stone waller in real time.

Lots of good performances today. Thought Watt was excellent again. He is going to be the glue that holds us together this season. Fadinger decent again and got the vital goal. Stama did a power of running and led the press well. If our delivery improves he might actually get some chances to score! Just was my MOTM though. Total buzz bomb throughout and the one trying to repeatedly unpick the St Johnstone lock. He did tire towards the end of the game and I would have probably subbed sooner. Just hope it is only cramp he was suffering from and not any sort of muscle injury.

Bailey Rice injured today. Also cup tied. Hopefully puts that one to bed....
