Hearts boss slams 'lazy' players
Laszlo wants to see greater desire from his players
Hearts manager Csaba Laszlo believes club owner Vladimir Romanov has been guilty of rewarding "lazy" players.
"I have come to a club where I have met a lot of nice people," he said. "Now I would like to change this. I want people who are hungry for success.
"Mr Romanov has made a big mistake and the mistake is he has given these people a very nice life. And a lot of these people - not all - are lazy.
"They are lazy. I have said to Mr Romanov we must change this."
The former Uganda boss arrived at Tynecastle earlier his month and has already talked of trimming the large squad he has inherited.
The 44-year-old is also anxious to bring in some new faces of his own.
The Romanov regime has seen several managers come and go, while highly-paid players like Mauricio Pinilla, Mirsad Beslija, Juho Makela and Jose Goncalves have failed to make an impact.
"This isn't negative but in professional football if you have players who are successful they deserve to earn very good money," added Laszlo.
"Players at clubs like Bayern Munich, Celtic and Rangers deserve money.

"But if you don't have success you can't cry out all of the time for money. "A lot of people say bad things about Mr Romanov but maybe the biggest mistake he has made is putting a lot of money in the club and hasn't got anything back. "He must change his attitude and we must look right now at which characters deserve the money. We can give players a good salary but for the bonuses and success they must work very hard."
