The Scotland international is well aware how crucial Thursday's tie abroad is for the Jambos.
Frustrated skipper Lawrence Shankland knows Hearts showed naivety at Dundee and can’t be as green in Greece - if they are to have any chance of rescuing their Europa Conference League dream.
“It’s so frustrating. I’ve said exactly these things in the dressing room, that it’s just daft, that we’re experienced boys who can’t be making mistakes like these. We all know when we’re playing well and when we’re not, when to try things and when not to. The Scotland star knows Hearts have been written off in many quarters after they lost their Euro opener at Tynecastle last week. They now travel to Thessaloniki looking for a massive win and to overturn their current 2-1 deficit.
“Last week was a bit of a missed opportunity with the way we had a goal chalked off at 1-1 then they went up the other end and scored, it’s the sod’s law of football. Shankland candidly claimed: “There shouldn’t have been a hangover from the PAOK game on Thursday, we rotated the squad enough that no one should be tired. It’s just that the performance wasn’t up to scratch
“Apart from the goal, Zander’s only had one real save to make, but fair play to Dundee – they’ve done enough to win in the end. We couldn’t break them down. We need to move on.”
