Hearts hitman Ricardas Beniusis admits he's not had an easy time at Tynecastle since his arrival in Edinburgh in August - but he's determined to make a real impact in the closing stages of this season.

A prolific striker back in his Lithuanian homeland he's yet to hit the mark for the men in maroon, having started just one game on the opening day of the campaign against Hibs.

While nobody would doubt that it all went wrong for Beni on that evening, few could question his appetite to succeed in Scotland.

And that's been recognised by caretaker manager Stephen Frail, who has rewarded the 27-year-old with regular appearances from the bench in recent weeks.

"I am waiting and it will be very nice," he told Hearts World when asked about the prospect of a maiden goal. "I am very happy that the manager believes in me. Of course, it is very important for me.

"I think where we are now is not honest. We know we can do better. Everybody believes in us now.

"Every day it gets better and better. I feel the [Scottish football] style. I know what the manger wants from me and I am trying to do my best.

"I am looking and waiting every day and I see in my dreams that I will score! Now I can believe how it can be."
