Tom Hardy’s Dug Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 (edited) Another thing. He’s a hard man DM that can get stuck in but he can play, make and find a pass that gets us in behind and splits a defence - the sort of pass every pundit wanks over Scott Allan making.

Debut 4 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 (edited) Aside from his quality, some others should be watching the work he puts in. Rarely wastes a ball and picks a pass when you’re half expecting a punt up the park. Top man. Edited September 22, 2019 by Debut 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bull's-eye Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Must be quite frustrating for him having players around him that aren't quite up to what he's used to. He really is a class act and the thought of Haring in beside him has my juices flowing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Mulk Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 I watched on tv, he looked impressive. Defensive midfielders often look better in the flesh too, due to their work off the ball.

AlphonseCapone Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 (edited) He's my sort of football player. Hard working, always wants the ball, moves with it if there's space, plays the simple pass to keep the ball moving and let space open up, can play that cutting pass when it presents, can tackle, shows leadership, reads the game. Top players who I've no doubt will absolutely stamp his authority up here as the season progresses.

Debut 4 Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Top player but was looking a bit frustrated tonight. Think he needs a wily, clever runner off him to give him more room. Damour just seemed to draw Aberdeen into our half and cramp the space up. It’s not good enough. He needs to run more, take people up the park.

Needs to waken up & realise quickly that tempo is more appropriate. Haring & Whelan....mmmmm. Agree and hope so. Damour is one of those players that looks like his mind drifts easily.

The Future's Maroon Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 MotM on Sunday for me, have just skimmed this thread and not sure that anyone has mentioned the potential of him and Haring as our defensive midfielders? Never mind Naisy, Walker, Washington, Meshino and Soapy still to come back... Not convinced with the management but the squad is as strong as I can remember for a good few decades, maybe CL is right, once it comes together/clicks it will be rosey...time will tell.
