wedge Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Maybe McLiesh wants to give Weimann a chance now after seeing the Fonz being pretty inaffective in the games he's seen so far. . Bit harsh considering he's played out on th fecking wing when he's clearly a centre-forward... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condimentalist Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Wonder if he'll go straight in, the more I think about it, the more I think it could be a possibility. I doubt it. It'll be Gabby up top with N'Zogbia, Bannan and Ireland/Jenas behind. He may get a run out from the bench but I'd be surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 He looked good while he was out there today. I think he should start upfront with Gabby against Wigan, if Bent is still out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Think he is ahead of Fonz in pecking order and he looked quite decent and positive. If only Albrighton played him in last few minutes he might have ended game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanky Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 I like the look of Weimann I must say. Looks quite stocky and gets into some good positions as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shillzz Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Agree, he didnt have the opportunity to do a lot, but I quite like the look of him. Such a shame Albrighton didnt play him in, poor decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overdubber Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Strange to see all the compliments about the young austrian after yesterdays performance.

He got us a corner that wasn't given, and QPR happened to score from the events following the goal kick. We'd have won the game if we got that corner. Albrighton could have played him in also for a better crack at goal. He picked up a position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forgive me for saying so, but I found that he got in the right places, just didn`t know what to do beyond that. Sure, bringing the ball to the corner flag and holding can, in the eyes of some, be considered a skill. Maybe AM had told him to run down time though, which in itself is a different issue, as we should have had the game decided well before that.

But on the whole I agree with your post. Didn't do much wrong. 10 minutes ain't much to do anything on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papillon Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 We could have put on Ronaldo last night and still not be able to make an impact. Our tactics are disasterous, and when we got that corner and McLeish signalled for 7 people to stay behind (or was it more?) I was shaking my head in disbelief. This was QPR away, not Barcelona mate. He looked like he was managing a new miracle, when QPR is one of the top 5 of easy games this season... It is such a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure myself either as didn't care too much when it happened, just wanted game to end, but Ray Wilkin's post match was running on about how we should have had a corner then, but was wrongfully given as a goal kick, which in turn led to the goal. I'll try find a replay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theunderstudy Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 QPR is one of the top 5 of easy games this season... It is such a shame. Whilst it's not the hardest of games, I wouldn't exactly consider it one of the 5 easiest, especially considering the form they're in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure McLiesh probably would have told him to come on to close the game out, taking the ball to the corner flag. To be fair, he was on for less than 10 minutes and didn't have many touches of the ball or opportunties too do much. His best chance was when Albrighton took on the shot when he could have quite easily played in Weimann. That was more Albrighton's fault, putting personal glory, before the team.

AdamLL Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 In the very short spell he looked good to me, showed a willingness to chase the ball which I liked. Also showed good pace to catch up to Albrighton (only to be ignored). Would like to see him given a little more game time if we are few goals up agaisnt Wigan.

Woodytom Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Strange to see all the compliments about the young austrian after yesterdays performance. I actually thought he looked a little lost and overwhelmed, but that`s just my opinion..... agreed, he looked way out of his depth, delfouneso would've done a much better job Total nonsense, he was only on for 6 minutes. He didnt do anything wrong. Sure he needs to have a bit more composure on the ball but the desire to do well oozes out of him. Something weve never seen with Delfounseo Slightly off topic but taking the ball to the corner is where we really miss James Milner. Very very good at killing a game off imo.

Agreed, I have always liked the look of Weimann and he deserves some chances. The Fonz has had a hatful over the last two or three seasons and never really proved himself (to me at least).

Agreed that Milner would have handled such situations better, but the lad is still young, and he diud actually look like he wanted the ball, but when he got it, seemed not to know what to do with it. Didn`t get his head up to look for a pass either. As mentioned, he was only on for a few minutes, so I suppose it really is the issue of giving the boy some time on the pitch.
