jack D and coke Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Really harsh criticism of Jamie for me. I’m not saying he’s a world beater, he wouldn’t be here otherwise but he’s one player in our squad who will get us some goals if he can get his fitness back. He’s not long back from a broken leg ffs and has taken another knock yet still the blows rain down on him. I always feel he doesn’t get much protection either and seems to get kicked up and down and place and generally fouled like ****. I don’t see many other players getting fouled as badly as Jamie does, really frustrates me. I don’t know if it’s just me that seems to notice too. It’s all about opinions I guess.

I agree with much of this, however it is time Jamie stepped up to the mark. He has been almost anonymous in most of the games he's played in since he's returned here. We know he can play and be a match winner. It's just that he seems to have lost a bit of panache. Time he found it, because at this point in time we need that.

Ernie Eskilsson Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 We have players that are too old and too slow and we have players that simply aren’t good enough, Jamie is neither and has worked hard in every game I’ve seen him this season. He’s one of our few good footballers. Give him a break FFS... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lambo85 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 (edited) He's 26 years old now. Should be mature enough to know what he needs to do to get a reguar first team place. He's got a lot to prove to the fans as he was hopless for about a year before he left us. He was never good enough to go down to England and wanst suprised at all to see him back up here within a year. In fact I predicted it before he left although I guessed he would end up at somewhere like Motherwell. I personally dont think he has it in him to make it here at Hearts especially since we are fighting a hard relegation battle. He has always been a luxury player however I would love him to prove me wrong. Edited January 21, 2020 by Lambo85 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that he needs to take his chance. But we've only signed Avdijaj, and both Wighton and Mulraney are no longer in contention. Admittedly we have a few back from injury and a couple of kids back from their loans. I think it's more about him taking his chance to convince DS that he has the tenacity and drive to play in his system. I hope he can but I am not sure!

Aye the young lads are stepping up and Meshino has come onto a game. Still a good impact sub or stand in but defo needs to perform when he gets a chance if he wants to be first XI. We know what he's capable of at his best. Still a good player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victorian Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 If he knows what if takes then he might consider pushing himself to the point where he doesn't look like he needs an oxygen tent after 15 minutes running about. I've seen more energy in marathon runners crossing the finishing line. Shape up or move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnasher75 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I would love to see him back to his very best but I don't know if it will ever happen. He lacks pace which I think Stendel wants in his attacking players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamboinglasgow Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 (edited) Do some players suffer because their general body language suggests they are trying even when they are? I feel Walker is one of these kinds of players. But I think not having the spotlight of him when getting back to full match fitness will help.

Templeton, Edwards, Crawford, Reilly, Cummings, etc can all make it down south there was no reason why Walker couldn't. There was a reason Rangers were after him. If he can get back to that level he'd easily be good enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dazajmbo Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Jamie Walker hasn't been fully fit since he was 20.

SuperstarSteve Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 With Clare coming on to a game the fans need someone to moan about and walker will be that selected individual. Ability has always been clear as day and hopefully he proves any doubters wrong before they start putting the boot in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Canada Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I've seen glimpses of what I'd expect from him since he came back, but if he's not 100% fit, that's all we're going to get - the odd good goal and tracking back to help out like he did when he got injured vs Motherwell. Until he's properly fit I think he'll have to settle for a place on the bench. We need every player in every game to be on it from the first whistle.

Pasquale for King Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 He firstly needs to get fully fit and stay that way, he will be given a chance and needs to take it. He has always had a goal in him so playing further forward under Stendel with a team pressing and playing on the front foot will help him no end.

Victorian Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Surely a young man in his mid 20s can work on his basic cardiovascular / aerobic performance. All it requires is a bit of self starter motivation. Cheerio Jamie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finlay James Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 He needs to visit the same sports psychologist as Clare. Walkers issues are all in his head and have been since he was a boy.
