Summary
Hearts came agonisingly close to the ultimate prize before suffering heartbreak on the final day of last season. Now, a new chapter begins at Tynecastle. Andrew Petrie is joined by Heart Standard editor Joel Sked and former Hearts defender Ryan McGowan to examine one of the most dramatic summers in recent club history. The panel discuss the departure of Derek McInnes, Lawrence Shankland and Cammy Devlin, the arrival of new head coach Wouter Vrancken, and how Hearts' relationship with the Jamestown analytics model continues to shape recruitment. There's also debate over the futures of key players, including Claudio Braga, optimism around the return of Ajeu, and discussion about what progress should look like in a season of transition. After months of upheaval, can Hearts maintain their place among Scotland's leading clubs and take another step forward?
