Damour - Yes or No?

Thu Jan 18, 2018 8:52 am

Has he been a success so far?

not for me.


dont get me wrong i dont think hes a terrible player, but just not quite good enough.

With a fully fit squad and especially as this new guy has come in, i dont think he plays.

But won't get a sniff with Marko in the side.

Yes he's been a success.

I also think he will improve.

Like Bryson he is a useful squad player - but will be behind Ralls, Gunnar (when fit) and now Grujic.

Give the guy time, big step up to championship.
Been brilliant so far.
Will need to step out on occasions to move forward.
Another pre season will mature him.

Spot on. A successful signing even if he does not start regularly in the run-in.

Of course it's a yes.
He's a good squad player. You can't just say the starting 11 only are a success.

I voted yes as an advanced midfield player. :ayatollah:

Definitely NOT as a deeper centre midfielder. Too lightweight and leaves Ralls to fend for himself.

Happy with him overall though. :bluescarf:

In my opinion he is not the finished article you get the feeling with him that with the right coaching he can offer more to the team,although he is not a automatic choice for selection,i would still put him ahead of Bryson,one last point to make is that I'm not so sure Gunnerson will be here next season and that's why Warnock is looking to bring in another midfielder who he is willing to pay a transfer fee for

Yes very cheap player making a step up and has done well overall when asked to step into the team.

I would say yes he has been a success, I think he was taken on a free and I wouldn’t have thought on huge wages.

He isn’t the finished article or a guaranteed first team starter but he is a good squad player and can get better. The type of signings we need when on a budget.

Yes, was a cheap gamble and our record with him in the side is excellent

Re: Damour - Yes or No?

Absolutely yes, He cost nothing and I believe Warnock said he was the lowest paid first team player

Not been brilliant but very useful squad player who hopefully will get better as he adapts to the championship and gets mentally and physically stronger

I think he’s been brilliant and does not look out of place in the championship !

Wow - 4 votes for no.....

Bought from the French second division and pushed in a bit earlier than probably anticipated. An off season on the weights and understanding what its all about and we;ll see a much better player.
