Hearts boss threatens strikers with transfer

With Hearts strikers scoring just four times this season, boss Csaba Laszlo has warned them they risk being sold if they don't start finding the back of the net. Laszlo told the Edinburgh Evening News: "My first choice is to look for goals from my strikers, like Jamie Mole, Juho Makela, Christian Nade and also Mike Tullberg.

"But I think also in professional football you don't have so much time to tell the fans that we are playing fantastic football.

"If you play fantastic football, after the game you must have three points. We must look to be better and if you like to be better, you must have new blood. This should not be alarming for anybody.

"When the transfer window is open, we must look at the possibilities. This is not only to buy but also to sell. At the moment the club is heading in the right way to bring stability."

"The problem we always have is we don't score," the manager continued. "We dominated the game against Aberdeen and had a lot of chances, especially from the wings. We have to be decisive in games.

"The defenders and midfielders are scoring, now I would like to see strikers scoring."
