See above....that extra £6-8m certainly starts to help reduce the need to sell, sell, sell each season. 6 minutes ago, AppyDAZE said: Known as "Bill" in the dressing room. Lock up yer daughters!

After all, we are building this new look team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fjmcity Posted July 4, 2018 Report Share Posted July 4, 2018 20 hours ago, JonDolman said: Bit of a gamble Johnson thinking he can turn Weimann into an effective goalscoring central striker. When Lambert at Villa, Rowett and McLaren at Derby have all played him on the wing. If we are sticking with the 4411/442 of last season then Id go with Paterson in behind Diedhiou. We were saying last season how we love seeing Paterson in behind the striker. Well now Bobby has gone, he has to play there surely. Weimann nowhere near as good on the ball. Pato is unplayable when on form. Lets not forget about Matty Taylor too. Very good option with Diedhiou. He was superb in the cup games in that role. If he wasn't fit all last season like Johnson says, then maybe he is a better player than what we have seen, and he still has an important role in the squad. I think maybe us buying Marriott now depends on whether Johnson wants to keep Taylor or not. I think Weimann might get a number of games but in various roles depending on players fitness and availability. I expect he will play as the main striker in those first 6 league games if we don't bring in another forward if only Johnson had some history of successful player conversions..

marcofisher Posted July 4, 2018 Report Share Posted July 4, 2018 Not sure how I feel about this signing. Over 100 appearances in the Prem as well as playing for Derby I can't imagine he would be on low wages. My Step-father who is a Villa supporter rates him and mentions his work rate is incredible. Heres hoping that his poor scoring record for Derby was from being played out of position and that in a different role for us he will flourish like he did at Villa under Lambert.

I think its a good signing, and he'll be played in the same way that Bobby was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weimann's not previously been known as a high goalscorer but neither was Bobby and I can see Weimann easily getting into double figures - and more - if City keep on producing the chances they did for Bobby. Very optimistic about this signing, and Hakeeb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
