Sagan Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 (edited) I would imagine that if Damour was going to sign, it would be tomorrow. English window is shut, so the chance of a big money move has gone? (not sure when the foreign windows shut) I think we can forget about Whelan now (although he's a free agent, it seems to have gone on for too long) and come friday night, we can forget about Damour as well. Just my opinion. Edited August 8, 2019 by Sagan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the league we play in I don't think we are too bad for long ball. In a wider sense, we are still pretty bad for it and the league as a whole could do with improving in that regard. I may not agree entirely with the above post, but I can respect it. Some posts, however, seem to be mocking the opinion that Hearts may not be a hoof-ball team.

Just my opinion. Re Whelan, I’m hoping he was waiting to see what his options were down south and once the window is closed he’ll sign with us. i know he’s a free agent but it may be that interested clubs were trying to move people on to free up space etc and it never happened. Have no problem with him keeping his options open and not making Hearts his number 1 priority. Especially when it’s potentially his last contract.

CJGJ Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 http://www.deadlinenews.co.uk/2019/08/08/hearts-set-to-complete-the-signing-of-loic-damour-on-friday-as-discussions-over-cardiff-release-continue-transfer-news-deadline-day-neil-warnock/ HEARTS expect to complete the signing of Cardiff City midfielder Loic Damour on a permanent deal in time for their Premiership clash against Ross County. The 28-year-old was initially offered to the Jambos on a season-long loan after falling out of favour with the Bluebirds, with reports suggesting those terms were all but agreed. However, the clubs were locked in talks throughout Thursday as the Jambos pushed to secure the former France under-20 international outright. That would require Cardiff to either annul the final year of Damour’s contract or accept a modest fee for his services, with Hearts not in a position to pay a significant transfer sum Nevertheless, sources close to the discussions were confident that an agreement will be struck by Friday. Damour was due to arrive in Edinburgh on Thursday evening for advanced contract talks and, barring any unforeseen hitches, will become their fifth summer signing on Friday. He could make a whirlwind debut against the Highlanders at Tynecastle. There was interest in Damour from his homeland, where he has previously turned out for Strasbourg, Boulogne and Frejus Saint-Raphael, but the player wanted to remain in British football.

Skacelsid Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Loic seems to play the game with a great attitude and work rate and our fans will take to him. It looks like going through and would be exciting signing, we have been missing midfield drive, energy and attacking intend. Loic can provide that, hopefully rubbing off on those around him and our youngsters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are to play are more open game, esp at home, you need a centre midfield with the ability, positional awareness and capabilities to get back in defensively very quickly. Damour sounds like he’d bring this, even Whelan if he came to Hearts. You can’t have a centre midfield who read things too late when we lose the ball and get countered. To have someone who can cover ground but read the game could make a huge difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarneyBattles44 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Before yesterday I'd no clue on Damour. The last few hours I've caught up through various news sites read good reports on his abilities . Seem he has been unlucky missing out on EPL football n is highly rated for a lad who hasn't featured in top team football since a stand out 2 seasons ago. He's got it all needs Us as We need him.

He doesn't, he has nada, therefore although my point is not 100% fact, it has far more substance in debating the point than a off the cuff comment that has absolutely no substance or foundation, but is used to score points and create arguments between Hearts fans.

We were bad for it last week with Dikamona being the worst culprit. Our players come to life when Naismith comes on and we start attempting to actually play football. We were the exact same as the last time we played at Aberdeen. Not good enough for me although I'll accept we were against a good Aberdeen side. More work needs to be done on the training pitch. Too many sidewards passes and punting it for Uche. That's not from me being 'dim-witted' or listening to other fans. I'm very much aware of what's happening when Naismith isn't on the pitch, not like some who think two 6th place finishes were down to just bad luck.
