AlphonseCapone Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Djoum is symbolic of our team in general. You can see the ability is there, and when the work rate is correct, the performances are very good. Too often though, especially against the bottom 6 teams, it's like the effort and desire aren't there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real midfielder, foot on the ball, head up, made probing passes. Real miss, Edwards has a good engine, Haring is a good enforcer but Djoum is the only real controlling and creative player we have. He will need replaced and not by Harry or Lee. Harry will go on to be a better player than Djoum, take that to the bank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herbert. Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Djoum is decent but not worth breaking the bank for. Lee,Bozanic and Djoum could all go and would be forgotten about very quickly and I dont think it would be noticed much on the pitch either.

Dia Liom Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 (edited) He was unreal under Robbie, exciting attacking player. Scored quite a few iirc. Last few years he has clearly been one of our best players, but has also not been able to recreate his early form - not his fault that the team has been largely poor after losing Paterson and Walker. I'd love to keep him as he is one of our best and he could easily contribute more in a better team. Wouldn't be bothered if he went though, he annoys me as a player. He does daft stuff quite often that makes me think his mentality is wrong. (Ridiculous ball to Hickey straight out of play was not the only shocker yesterday. I'd also hate to see his champ man shooting rating). Weird one! Edited May 26, 2019 by Dia Liom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ayrways Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Friends of mine were at the official club do last night after the game - Djoum definitely leaving this summer, not extending.

A_A wehatethehibs Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 I’m not on board with the love in, he played decent but there were a couple of sloppy passes from him nearly cost us yesterday. That happens all too often, and he often sticks to playing the easy ball as a result rather than taking risks. He is always up for the physical battle but for me is not a sharp enough passer of the ball, he offers no threat when he is on the ball. Hearts lack of threat from midfield has been a big part of the problem in recent years, you need players in there who put opponents on the back foot with a bit of skill, take a touch to make room for a shot. There’s no hard feelings, he’s had his ups and downs here but overall I think he can look back on his time here with some fond memories of some great wins, I wish him all the best with his next move.

Exactly. Their average wage is nearly £3k per week so guys at the top end will be close to or more than double that with a lot of younger players on £1k per week or less.

It’s absolutely bonkers that a large section of our support will apparently be happy when he leaves this summer. Funny old game. I’ll be happy enough if he goes.

Clare was last to touch the ball and did well but he hardly "set up" the goal. Djoums “intelligent play” was a mishit shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CavySlaveJambo Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 I liked Djoum as a player, but since the AFCON win with Cameroon he has been very inconsistent, if there is talk of a new contract or a move he improves his play for maybe a few weeks, but there are times he can be a passenger, for large portions of the game.

Kiwidoug Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 From all the reports I've read he's far too inconsistent and I'll be happy if he goes.
