Heart of Midlothian Jekyll and Hyde Hearts

- Roddy Elliott

Hearts are such a Jekyll and Hyde team. Last week’s stuttering away performanc­e was followed by a relatively comfortabl­e win against one of the best of the rest teams in the country. Craig Levein’s record against Aberdeen is extraordin­ary. The Dons hit the post early and late, but Hearts played really good football to lead 2-0 at the break and held it comfortabl­y, as well as threatenin­g to add on several occasions.

David Milinkovic again showed why he is becoming a mini cult hero and would be welcomed as a long-term signing. Why he remained on the bench last week remains a mystery. We await the split fixtures hoping for Hibs and Rangers at Tynecastle, where we remain unbeaten this season.
