Popular Post ExiledAjax Posted April 22, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 22, 2023 That goal today is Weimann's 50th goal for the club. Should see him up on the honours board/web page. The last man to do it was Diedhiou. 193 matches taken to get there. 49 league goals. 1 League Cup goal.

Gazred Posted April 22, 2023 Report Share Posted April 22, 2023 He's got a good strike rate considering the variety of ways he's been played whilst here. Certainly more to his game than goals as we all know. Well done Andi. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just that 3rd season where he had that serious injury was a disappointment. Obviously the bulk of his 50 goals came last season when he got 23, but in his first two seasons he scored 10 and 9 respectively. Then today was his 6th this season, and in the aforementioned injury hit season he scored just twice. He's got a goals/minute ratio of 1 every 303 minutes. That's not stellar compared to many CFs - most would hope for more like 1 every 200 minutes or so. However, as you say for a guy who has played long spells at RWB, CM, RW, and only really a season or so as an CF, it's a good return. As an aside he's never been sent off for us, has only 29 yellows, and is by all accounts a bloody nice guy.

And, from what I`ve heard, has been a huge influence on Alex, Tommy and Sam for which the club will reap the rewards in the future. Well done Andi. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted April 22, 2023 Report Share Posted April 22, 2023 Aside from the winner, I thought he made a big impact in the minutes he was on. A few good passes, runs, etc. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some comments do stay with posters here don’t they! However I suppose Gary Johnson is managing in the conference and Matt Smith isn’t as good as he was! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted April 22, 2023 Report Share Posted April 22, 2023 What was he, £2m and then renewed on muxh lower terms. He hasn't had the best of seasons but an absolute snip overall. Well done Andi...his attitude, his self-sacrifice, his host of unluckily disallowed offside goals the tally could be better still- Will run all day and in 1at season we really struggled to pick his excellent runs. Versatility, if not for the lengthy injury 2 seasons ago would have more goals and assists. A credit, very happy for him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFCGav Posted April 22, 2023 Report Share Posted April 22, 2023 Big moment. While Fam was indeed the most recent, the last before that was Scotty Murray - this doesn’t happen too often. What a player he’s been for us ️ 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had Semenyo stayed with us I think he'd have got to 50. He was on 21 when he left so maybe would have got there in the next two or three seasons. But alas the market does what the market does. Wells is on 30 currently (151 games), Conway on 12 (47 games). So we might see Wells do it if he has a great season next term. Conway will get it if he stays fit and with us.

shelts Posted April 22, 2023 Report Share Posted April 22, 2023 He gave us a massive lift when he came on today and no mean feat getting 50 goals for us . Adds good value to the squad . Not a starter for me . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congratulations Andi, bloody good job for a bloke who just runs around and points. It only takes a second to score a goal (Source: B. Clough, 1978), so that's 50 seconds - less than one minute - scoring goals, in 193 matches (193 x 90 minutes = hours and hours. Days, probably). Therefore, we can conclude: Andi spends most of his time, when he's not pointing, running around. Hours and hours, of just running around. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he sees out his career with us I think he's got another 2 or 3 seasons in him. Averaging 40 apps and 8 goals over that time lands him on 74 goals and 310ish appearances. Proper legend territory if he wants it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garland-sweden Posted April 23, 2023 Report Share Posted April 23, 2023 A really good player! Since he came to us he has always been one of our best players. This season he played in various roles, not so dominating maybe but still gives 100. Nice for him to score our winner yesterday. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbored Posted April 23, 2023 Report Share Posted April 23, 2023 (edited) Weimann would get into most of the Championship teams. His versatility is what makes him so valuable. We’ve seen him play wide left, in behind the front two, as a ‘roving’ midfielder and as a striker. He’s class act both on and off the pitch - one of the experienced guys who along with Andy King and Matty James act as mentors and role models to the younger players. Its no surprise that he was elected captain by his team mates. He’s very well respected by everyone.

ExiledAjax Posted April 23, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2023 12 hours ago, ExiledAjax said: Wells is on 30 currently (151 games) Just looked at Wells a bit more. As above he's on 30 in 151 games and just over 9,000 minutes. As with Andi he scores roughly once every 300 minutes. If we assume he can keep that rate up then he needs 6,000 minutes to get to 50 goals. That's 66 full 90 minute games, plus 66 minutes, so 67 games. Crucially he's already contracted for the next two seasons, with a maximum of 46 league games and maybe 4 cup games each season. That gives him the time he needs to get the goals. It is quite possible that Wells will be the next man to 50 goals in a couple of years' time. This assumes no drop in performance or output, but it's possibly not going to be too long until we see the next name on the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
