Hearts Fans Express Distrust Following Heavy Loss to Sturm Graz
We asked for your views after Hearts were humbled by Sturm Graz in the first leg of their Champions League second-round qualifier.
Here’s what some of you had to say:
Paul: Terrible defending. I do not know why they persist with Pierre Landry Kabore – he’s bang average and his goal ratio is awful. Give young James Wilson some game time, at least he knows how to put the ball in the back of the net. We were punished due to poor defending and things have to tighten up.

Gina: I thought we looked good when attacking but we need to look at our defence, which let us down badly.
David: Real mixed emotions with this one. We looked very dangerous going forward, even with some of our better players starting on the bench. But our inability to finish moves was very frustrating. The real problem is in defence. Jamie McCart is not nearly good enough for this level, but I assume he was only in because Stuart Findlay isn’t quite ready to start after ankle surgery. We wouldn’t have had that scoreline with Findlay or Craig Halkett.
Andy: Questionable starting line-up. We conceded some really sloppy goals and looked devoid of confidence in the second half. We’ll need to learn quickly and move on.
Davie: The manager got this team selection totally wrong. For our first away leg and first competitive game, we needed to be structured better. We were far, far too open and we don’t have the killer touch at the moment to play this way. Most of the better players were sitting on the bench – why?
