Dickson-peters has 10 at u17 and 1 at u18. Lo-everton has 5 at u17, 2 at u18 and is in the U19s squad at the minute. McGlynn made his u18 debut in the training camp in Turkey last month against Cameroon. Encase you where wondering, Hickey has 3 u17 caps and is in the u19 squad.

Okay I know it's not like for like but Tomori got called up for the England squad and he's only made three premier league starts for Chelsea. Hickey has way more experience of first team football. I'd start him against San Marino or call up Nathan Patterson. Edited October 11, 2019 by Hertsscot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Dark_Knight Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Ethan Hamilton played 90 min for Southend. He's 21 next week and he's never played for the Under 21s. I'm surprised at that. I've seen him several times at youth level for Manchester United and he looks very good. A lot of United fans think he'll be better than McTominay.

Rab The Crab Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 BBC reporting that Hanley will definitely miss the next double header due to injury. I think we can safely discount him from the playoffs in that case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we can safely discount him from the playoffs in that case. Why? He’s been ruled out for 7 or 8 weeks. The playoffs are at least 20 weeks away. I don’t think you can ‘safely discount’ him from the playoffs as that would be utterly ridiculous. Personally I’m hoping we won’t need him for the playoffs because he probably won’t play if all our other central defenders are fit but with the injury problems we’ve had in that position I wouldn’t be surprised if he played in March if he’s fit.

Guest ElChris04 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Watched the Sheffield Wednesday vs Cardiff Game last night main notes - Palmer was the worst player on the pitch, fans are calling for Gary monk to sell him in January as “he’s league 2 standard” - Steven Fletcher can’t head a goal into a open net, another who was getting absolute pelters for being well and truly past it anyone who feels they should be anywhere near our team let alone the starting 11, please find the nearest mental institution.

Tierney, Hickey, McCrorie,Jack Hickey has played at right back for hearts and looks as good as he is a left back. Also double footed. He’d be called up in the next team for me, going to be a top player imo. Tierney doesn’t need any explanation. McCrorie has been playing right back for the U21’s and Portsmouth and has looked far superior. And Jack has put a better performance at right back in a Scotland Jersey than Palmer or SOD have ever done. And for Fletcher? Griffiths,Shankland,Harper,Hornby Like KT, Griff doesn’t need any explanation. Shankland is younger and hasn’t put a foot wrong. And Harper is a far more agile and pacy forward that would fit our style of play, Hornby is doing brilliant at club and U21 level and looks far superior at just 21 Than Fletcher ever did. there’s a list of players who would walk into the team over Palmer and Fletcher for me.

What has changed since then that people think he is ready for a Scotland call up? Totally agree on the other 3 you mention plus Mccrorie.

We need a right back and this lad is more than holding his own at 17 in the Hearts first team. Seems to be very highly rated and reports of Man City interested. I do have a proper bee in my bonnet about how we never 'fast track' our prospects, unlike other small nations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all for fast tracking our prospects that are ready or are nearly ready. Hickey to me looked a little under cooked for full international football last time I saw him, what's changed?

killiefaetheferry Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Hornby player of the month at Kortrijk. 3 goals and an assist in 4 games. Gilmour captained Chelsea U23s against Arsenal last night; a 3-1 victory in which, by all accounts, he ran the show. Lots of comments from reporters and social media that he is too good, at 18, for that level. Speculation he may be with first team sooner rather than later. still waiting for a couple of centre halves. Fingers crossed for McKenna. Not sure about Souttar but hope he proves me wrong. George Johnston? (Not seen him play). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I trust Mr Clarke as a good judge of a player so I'll only say maybe he could have a proper look at these lads in training. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has everything, technique, dedication, huge confidence in his ability and humility. I get the feeling the Hickey hype just now is due to this man city link. Sure hell be ready at some point but not keen on rushing guys who are too far away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killiefaetheferry Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I seem to remember a 17 year old Georgian having a no' bad game against us. I think the point is that it's not plucking a wee boy out of a youth league. Hickey is playing for Hearts first team. I'm not advocating parachuting him straight in for caps, but surely if he's the real deal we can have him in trying as part of the squad with a view to integrating him into the setup.
