“We worked really hard over the last year to identify where we need to improve, and identify players we think connect to Hearts who can make a difference. I think that's what we have done, so it's been a good summer so far.
“Doing business early depends on the player and circumstances. If a player is coming out of contract then you can get a pre-contract done early.
“If there is an area of the team where we think we need to move quickly, we will do that. There might be other situations where we have identified somebody who we think fits us but is not a priority, so that might take a bit longer.

Yes, we have managed to get six signings in quickly, but four of them were pre-contracts so they were always going to happen quickly. It's nice to get our business done as early as possible, but circumstances dictate that.”
