Mabil to Turkey on loan is pretty crappy, ngl. Really needed to just leave Denmark two/three years ago when he had interest from the Championship and Europe. What's with our players having zero ambition, yeah he got to play Champo's, but far out. at 27 this year, this looks about as far as he'll get. 

Some of his teammates at Midtjylland during his seasons where he was racking up 20+ goal contributions have moved onto bigger and better things. Where is the ambition!? Not like there wouldn't have been concrete interest for a 20+ goal contribution player.

I would best describe him as "industrial "no more, no less.

Robbie Neilson must prefer "industrial players" then to keep selecting him.

Yeah, but you don't get those stats just by luck, there is quality there. The striker he provided all those assists to moved to Belgium and has scored 60+plus goals in over 100 games in two and a half years. He wasn't anything special as well, but I suppose a little bit of faith from a club and some motivation can do that to you. 

Something Aussies never seem to get.

he's been doing alot off field stuff, podcasts and other crap - I'll never understand it. When his career is over and he can podcast for the rest of his life, just focus on football now he has only a few years left.

You do wonder about Volpato. It's near taunting. Of course if he's getting youth minutes then it's o for now.

he not even starting in the Primavera though, they going with the 17yo Pagano. Hammond should bee back from his hammie issue soon I think he's the only one that will breakthrough this season. Once the relegation round starts he should get minutes.

Devlin was dropped to the bench after some questionable form, Atkinson seems to have picked up an injury. I wonder why AMB has been dropped. From all reports he was doing well.

Kicker app is shocking. I see he's now been added to the bench on the app. They rotated and lost to last place Dundee. That'll learn them.

AMB had a crater in his face but I fear the other keeper starting twice gives the coach a headache. At least the competition is there for AMB to fight. I expect he'll sign a permanent Scottish deal or get a lower League 1 or 2 gig for next season.

Devlin and Atkinson both didn't play in their 2-1 loss 

Interesting that the hearts fans think they were pretty horrible in midfield today without Devlin. A few comments about the fact he should have been brought on and he really helps the midfield break up play etc. 

Mcgree didn't get off the bench either, but considering he is recovering from COVID and just got back it shouldn't be surprising.

One game in how many?

And they got beat by Dundee LOL.

From Jambos fan forum:

"Devlin was missed in the middle of the park. If every player put in the effort this guy does we wouldn’t be getting beat at home to Scumdee. "

If he was the full package he wouldn’t be playing in the SPL.

He has tons of ability, just not the type of ability you obviously look for. His career is very young so he may well develop the skills you value.

Every team needs someone who can break up play. He does that very well. Better  this year, so far, than anyone else in the league. And that is not, in my view, industrial. 

it is a team game. He has a role in that.

When the rest of the Hearts team are also “ industrial “ it makes him nothing special.

I actually liked him in the A league, not so much now as he is just a dirty little bastard now.

Duncan starting in another friendly. Hope he can stay fit.
Vukovic should be starting in the Dutch cup quarters soon



By now, American Samoa must have realised that Australias 22-0 win over Tonga two days earlier was no fluke.

Arguably the most industrious in the spl in terms of ball winning. But also a decent passer. As part of a midfield unit I think he has a lot of potential beside mooy/genreau/hrustic/rogic

Good to get a full game but that score is somewhat damning when I read it's against the team dead last with quite a gap to the rest. I just hope Grdic isn't another single call up type like Mrcela or Susnjar.
