After their Celtic Park humbling, are Hearts ready to take on Mo Salah’s Trabzonspor in the Conference League - will it be an even tougher test for Wouter Vrancken’s side? Is it time to rethink their risk-reward style of football - or should they stick to their organised chaos approach? And just how worrying is their away form this year? Elsewhere in the capital, why has there not been a new manager bounce for Marink Reedijk? Are issues off the park turning things too toxic at Hibs for there to be any success? Is their lacklustre recruitment the driving force behind the downturn in results? Is it time to be worried about a relegation fight? With David Currie, Mark Atkinson, and Rory Loy.
