Robbie Neilson admits Hearts have suffered in a European school of hard knocks but he insists it's only whetted their appetite to plot a return.
The Jambos boss will end their failed Europa Conference League campaign tonight against Istanbul Basaksehir in Turkey with one eye already on Sunday's Premiership clash at Tynecastle which will take precedence. But as the curtain drops on a painful Group A experience where they're guaranteed to finish third, Neilson is adamant the focus to make continental adventures the norm.
He said: "We have tasted it and we have learned a lot of lessons, some good lessons and some hard lessons but we have to try and get back again. From our perspective we have this game on Thursday but the main objective now is to get back here next season.
