Red Army 75 Posted January 2, 2022 Report Share Posted January 2, 2022 Best signing we made in the summer. The bloke is class 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dREDful Posted January 2, 2022 Report Share Posted January 2, 2022 TBH I felt the same before last season. He's aging very well and was the "must sign" of last summer for me. Not at all surprised he's one of our most important players nowadays. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTFABM Posted January 2, 2022 Report Share Posted January 2, 2022 I don’t think weimann is either great or poor. What i do say about him is he isn’t the best footballer, the thing that stands out most about him is his work rate. Give him a chance he doesn’t have to think about he can be very good. Give him time to think and i think he looks a far worse player 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFC Grim Posted January 2, 2022 Report Share Posted January 2, 2022 Did I really read somewhere someone preferred Jamie Paterson? On for 20 goals this season. Which in this team is ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsince1994 Posted January 2, 2022 Report Share Posted January 2, 2022 Now the 'best of the rest' in terms of championship goals this season. Only behind Mitrovic, Solanke & Brereton-Diaz who are too good for the division really. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Ferret Posted January 2, 2022 Report Share Posted January 2, 2022 12 goals, can't knock it. He dissapears from time to time, but when he turns up he's a goalscorer and makes the frontline tick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KegCity Posted January 2, 2022 Report Share Posted January 2, 2022 It’s all he does when he’s shoved out wide. Needs to consistently play up front, it’s his best position and he’s always dangerous. We don’t need to sign a striker in January, just give Weimann service. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree and he can drop into midfield if we need to defend a lead which is a great asset to have. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City_USA Posted January 2, 2022 Report Share Posted January 2, 2022 IMO, stick him up front for the 2nd half of the season and use any money available to strengthen things at the back and add some creativity to get the ball into the box. More affordable than a striker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t enjoy his performance there in the first half as he often wasn’t there! Think maybe their first goal is avoidable if he was in position. Anyway, I am not his biggest fan, but can’t argue the goal return. Important goals often too. I think I’d play him up front with 3 at the back partnered with Semenyo(who is just as vital imo). Think get the best out of him there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scored a hat trick today from wide / in behind a striker It’s not complete rubbish is it? When he first turned up he scored 5 in 5 playing up front, his goals all come from being in and around the box up front. Offers far more than any other striker we’ve got and he’s got the goal record to go with it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturny Posted January 2, 2022 Report Share Posted January 2, 2022 Fine, we’ll change it to “all he does is run around” to “all he does is run around and score goals” Happy? 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonBristolian Posted January 2, 2022 Report Share Posted January 2, 2022 I think it very easy to assess player performances as individuals whereas really it is often more about how they fit into the team. Weimann runs constantly and, in a team that responds to his movement, he is very effective whereas in a team as static as we are at our worst, he looks like a headless chicken because nothing he does is being supported - either in terms of balls in to him or the movement of other players. We really missed Weimann last season and he has definitely been key for us this season but there's still a massive difference in performance between games like today when players respond to his movement and some other performances this season where he's not really been supported by the players around him. What we've really lacked in the last three years is a system and a team of players that complement each other. And that's been as true up-front as it has been elsewhere. I think Semenyo and James returning improves our options and gives us a chance to find a team that works as a unit and I think Weimann benefits from that as much as anyone. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
