Last night against Braga was a joy to watch for many different reasons but the thing that stood out for me was the shape and discipline of the team. It's obvious the coaching staff have drilled that into the players and each one of them have executed it to perfection.
The question remains - Are the players not giving the correct game plan when playing against lesser teams domestically or are the players simply not carrying it out?
In my opinion we show too much respect to teams we should be putting under pressure from the first whistle. Each one of us knows that spfl opposition defenders simply panic when this happens. It's what got us our points on the board and teams feared not only our ability but our work rate as well.
Up the pressure in the hearts game and I've no doubt we will pick up the victory. Sit off, show too much respect and it will be a repeat of our last head to head.
