Weimann puts 50 up

[Dan Robin]

One of the club's best signings. Great footballer and he always gives 100% on the pitch.

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.

Personally think Conway will soon become our first choice centre forward and Wells won't play enough games to get to 50 goals. Assuming we continue with 4-3-3, of course.

He obviously played a lot more games.........but had not realised that Gerry Gow scored nearly as many  goals as Super Bob  ? 

That’s why we all say we need a Gerry Gow. Flippancy aside we’ve not had a consistent goal scoring midfielder for years.

Agree it's likely Wells either does get the appearances or just drops off in terms of goals per game.

If Conway does become 1st choice then he'll likely/need to score 15+ a season. Young players that do that get sold, so he'd likely depart when on something between 25 and 35.
