AVTuco Posted October 25, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted October 25, 2013 If the choice is between Andi and Tonev, I wouldn't hesitate a second. Let Andi continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted October 25, 2013 Moderator Share Posted October 25, 2013 We need to stop the 'yeah but' and the 'what if' stuff and just play the man from the start and see how he does. Isn't that what I was arguing? I'm saying play him. You're saying it's too risky when we need the points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was arguing that there is no game where it wouldn't be a risk so I'd have no problem starting him tomorrow regardless of the opposition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heid3ster Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 I find it interesting that before signing his new contract he was bursting a gut and playing exceptionally well and now that he has got his new contract, his form has dipped considerably. Sometimes security takes the edge of hunger. Weimann's going through a bad patch of form to be sure, but it ain't from lack of trying. I don't think we have a single player who works harder than he does. This isn't the problem. I'd say lack of confidence more than anything, he's rushing his shots when he should be taking a little more time and/or looking for the pass.

Andi is definitely a player whose form is based off his confidence, once he bangs in 1 or 2, he will kick it up to where most expect him to be. What also has to be considered is that both Andi and Gabby both have been struggling a bit the past couple of weeks form wise and I think alot of that comes down to Benteke being out of the side. Benteke, Gabby, and Andi have excellent chemistry up top and it will take time before Kozak has that same rapport with the other strikers. So I think in the next few matches we will hopefully see a resurgance of our strikers with Benteke fit again.

Hopefully Andi will return to form tomorrow with a couple of goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 Needs to be dropped like a hot potato. Can't do anything right at the moment and it's been the same all season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LxYoungAVFC Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 (edited) Sh*t. Offers nothing on the ball. No composure, No pace, No heading, No ability to beat a man. Edited October 26, 2013 by LxYoungAVFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 His end product is absolutely criminal right now, he needs to be a dropped for a few games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.Bear Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 Rubbish player. No composure. Cant pass, no pace, cant shoot. Offers nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 Clearly needs to be dropped. He's put so many shots beyond the 20th row, it's criminal. Has pace and commitment, but his guile is lacking. He's looking more and more like Gabby, really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunnski Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 Better than Gabby though, at least he was trying his heart out and he made a great chance for Gabby. He started out on the wings which is not his position so it's not ideal for the kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 Awful... Andi fan too... But this guy is playing some really bad football, with limited moments where he does something above average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did he create our best chance of the second half by making a great run and then playing the right ball?? Is that offering nothing?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samjp26 Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 (edited) Another Andi fan here but he really needs to be dropped, his composure is awful and he's snatching at everything, how nobody has been given a chance over him is beyond me. As a striker, he needs to be able to put the ball in the net. Edited October 26, 2013 by samjp26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this was the case Weimann could be rested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonic_bouma Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 He's playing on the wing I mean that is MON tactics from Lambert He's a got a winger at right back who could take Weimanns place and a right back who has had the kick up the arse he needs sat on the bench Lowton and Bacuna down the right for next game Fat chance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
