RSSCsaba remains unbeat
If Hearts players respond with the passion and commitment that their manager did after last night's defeat to Dunfermline then the Tynecastle side are unlikely to have too many problems in the season ahead.
A largely experimental line-up went down to the Pars in front of about 1,000 visiting supporters, and whilst they would have been largely disappointed with what they saw, Csaba Laszlo is unequivocally aware that there is work to do.
And it is that work that inspires the new boss, who will lead his charges to Germany for the next leg of their pre-season preparations on Sunday evening.
Whilst Csaba is adamant that young players will get their chance at Hearts, he also realises that a couple of more experienced players may be required to compliment the squad.
"At the moment I think we have a lot of work," he said after the game in Fife. "At the moment it is not just the result that is important but to know that we have a very big squad. We must look to reduce the numbers and give the chances to the young players.
"This is my job to push the team. I am happy about the players. They understand what I want and need in the field.
"The quality is there but we don't have players with experience. We've used players from the Academy and given them chances to show their talent. They are new players in the team. We want to give chances to players in the Academy. We have a very clear concept.
"We want to explore this and I know 100% what I have to do. At the moment I am very confident with the club owner, my technical team, the scouting team. Everyone knows what we have to do. We are working for a better future."
When asked by the media if he knew which positions he wanted to make changes to he showed a deft touch in saying, "I know everything but this is not for the media at the moment!
"We have everything discussed about this and at the moment the most thing is that we work together. I appreciate very well this idea, this new idea in the club to work together."
At present the squad is training twice a day, but they are also working on their 'football knowledge', becoming students of the game, which Csaba believes will help them understand what makes a successful team.
"Believe me, everyone will work hard," he added. "We don't sleep and we won't talk, but we want to show everybody that we are a serious club and a good club. We are there for the fans.
"The passion is back and the fans will see this. The spirit is back and I see this. I am happy about this. I've been here three days and we've changed something. I hope we can stay a long time and being more, passion, fans, and spirit to this club."
