 Hearts need to show more passion when they play away from Tynecastle. JJ's side have lost five out of six games away from Tynecastle since he returned to the club. Despite last weekend's result against Rangers, JJ has been happy with their form in Gorgie and he wants his team to show similar commitment when they face St Mirren in Paisley on Saturday. Speaking of last weekend's results,. Jefferies said: "On outfield play it was never a 4-1 drubbing. It was down to defensive errors and individual mistakes. On outfield play, there was a lot to be pleased about. This is not finished but there is improvement on how we see the players wanting to play. They are certainly getting the ball down and passing it. A lot of people have commented that there is a passion returning to the players that they didn't feel they had recently. We have never been able to pick the same side twice but there's no doubt the away record has to improve. We'll be asking questions if the passion we have shown in the last two games is any less." JJ's selection problems have not eased as Calum Elliot, Dawid Kucharski, Michael Stewart, Jose Goncalves plus goalkeepers Janos Balogh and Marian Kello will still be missing while Ismael Bouzid is still short of making his comeback. Added to this list, both Andrew Driver and Jason Thomson are struggling to overcome knee problems. Jefferies said: "It's all about how Andrew Driver feels just before kick-off. He is still got to be rated doubtful, Jason Thomson too." Meanwhile, JJ has doing his corporate bit by telling fans to buy into his vision for taking the club forward by snapping up season tickets, which went on sale today. He said: "The fans gave us a really warm welcome when we first arrived and they have shown great backing from day one. It would be great if the supporters showed the same enthusiasm next season and buy their season tickets in big numbers. There are loads of great offers available and it would be great if we could get this place rocking again." |
