Vrancken vision becoming clear - will it be enough for Rapid result?

[BBC] After scoring 11 goals in the past three games, it's fair to say Hearts are buying into Wouter Vrancken's attacking philosophy. The "organised chaos" now looks more like organised attacking play. That shift has produced 32 efforts on goal across the Dundee United, Benfica and Inverness Caley Thistle matches, with half of them on target. Encouragingly, most of the attackers have impressed during this run. Josh McPake and Calvin Miller have strengthened their claims for starting places with goals and assists, while Sabah Kerjota, the Albanian magician, has added creativity and end product after former boss Derek McInnes kept one of his best tricks up his sleeve last season. The early scrutiny on Vrancken, after defeats in each of his first four games, has quickly faded. The main question now is whether he can guide us into the Conference League proper. I'm expecting goals across both legs of the play-off with Rapid Vienna. Their 8-0 home win over Grazer last weekend kept them top of the Austrian Bundesliga and they look likely to be as formidable as Sturm Graz. Even so, we are in better shape for this tie than we were a month ago. I don't have many concerns in the attacking third, aside from the lack of a clear starting number nine. Defensively, we still need to tighten up, but there are signs of progress. Jamie McCart and Oisin McEntee have both delivered strong centre-half performances in the past fortnight and hopefully can carry that form into the tie against the Austrians. If Calvin Miller starts at left-back again in Harry Milne's absence, his partnership with Josh McPake could give us plenty down that side. Both work hard, have the technical quality for intricate play, understand their defensive responsibilities, and are beginning to build a productive connection. If we can get through Thursday night level in the tie - or better still, ahead - I'd strongly fancy us to finish the job, even though we haven't won a match outside of Edinburgh since late January. A win in Vienna would be one for the history books, but whatever happens next, there is finally a sense Hearts are building something with real momentum.
