Korobochka issues Hearts warning

Anatoly Korobochka says Hearts' results must improve
Hearts sporting director Anatoly Korobochka has promised major changes in squad personnel if the Tynecastle side's dismal run of results continues.

The Edinburgh club have slipped to ninth place in the Scottish Premier League after picking up only two points from their last five matches.

"January sees the opening of the transfer window and we expect there to be changes," Korobochka said.

"We'll be looking to strengthen the team and improve our results."

Korobochka was writing in the club's matchday programme for the crucial Boxing Day clash with St Mirren at Tynecastle.

Over Christmas week and into New Year is a key period for us

"You always expect some kind of movement during the window," the 53-year-old former CSKA Moscow boss continued.

"We have some quality players here but nevertheless we always have positions we might want to strengthen."

"If it so happens that the clubs and players can agree something, then new faces will more than likely arrive here."

"Over Christmas week and into New Year is a key period for us and if the current team proves to be incapable of getting the right results, then something will have to happen as regards changes."
