Love the player in the background. Who he?

Bannan from what I can make out.

It would be a very big mistake from Weimann to leave, plus to be honest we stood by him through injury and if we offer him a good deal he should stay.

It would be up there with Downing for me if he decided to go this summer, and despite only 12 months I would expect 8 to 10 million for him if he did go.

I think he is a very good player, but misses a lot of very very decent chances and the attack breaks down with him on the ball far more often than the other two. He has a long way to go.

Agree with the last point. He fits in with our forward line well but I think we could get better if he goes. If he thinks he could find better than what he currently has, then go and find it. I don't want himto go but he's barely ready for our 1st team if we are to be at minimum a mid-table team.

Think his agent may be doing a bit of posturing with the intention of getting his client a new deal. I like Weimann a lot, but really feel at this time he is better staying at Villa and really learning his trade. I am not sure he is ready for the top 5 clubs yet, but am sure he will continue to improve

100% agree

100% agree

If he develops properly he can be a top 5 club player with us, or at the very least with us as the business end of the table on a regular basis.

[villan from luton]

I think the lad himself will realise that the way the team is set up suits him and that he is best staying here. His agrent is the one doing the talking, not Weimann, who has always seemed to love it at the club from his comments. Lambert has really given him a chance as well

This is something I hope, when together, is pointed out to this squad. They have a unique opportunity of growing into a top side together. All the same sort of age, all with massive potential. When you look at some clubs and the players that have left from certain eras they would have been right at the top had most stayed and stuck it out but they chased glory the fast route. I hope our management team can convince this group to give 3-4 years to have a chance of success as a group.

That's clear for all to see but bloody agents keep chipping away and turn the heads of some players. I am really hoping and praying this team does get a chance to grow but the sharks are circling already.

[villan from luton]

My main fear is Benteke going, but think Lambert is correct in saying he should stay until the world cup at least. I think the rest of the team will stay together, including Weimann. The likes of Lowton and Westwood seem to be level headed lads as well. The player I expect to really shine next season is Delph if he stays clear of injury, has had an excellent last few months. Lambert said to sky today that Lowton only cost 1 million and Westwood and Sylla even less, what superb signings

[Toronto Villa]

The one thing I find reassuring, at least as much as you can as the season ends and speculation builds is that I believe we have exactly the right man in charge as manager. Listening to his press conference yesterday, having initially fucked around with one or two of the reporters I at least got the impression he was very aware of the situation with Benteke, as much as the other players that have done well this year. For us as a club this is exactly what we should be doing as opposed to buying finished goods that often come to the highest bidder. Not saying we shouldn't be after one or two of them too in the right spots but in reference to Weimann in particular, having a sqaud of players grow up together and creating a pipeline of replacements is precisely the model we should be looking to build.

[SoccerHQ]

Weimann is a promising young player at the moment, nothing more, nothing less. He works hard and has scored some important goals this season but there are games recently where I've barely noticed him. I don't believe any Champions League would want to pay significant money for him as things stand. His awareness and decision making isn't good enough for that level.

Fulham (or some club of that standard) might come in for him. However I agree with BDE especially his last sentence. Orginally I said hes no more than another David Geddis, scores useful goals but short of absolute class ,but he has improved a lot. Hes a bit like Shearer very single minded and always goes for goal aggressively. Doesnt always work out but like one or two others he is coming along nicely.

He's like Dirk Kuyt I think.

Good player who will improve further. I hope and expect him to stay. Think he'll get 15 league goals next season.

[villan from luton]

I think the comparisons with Dirk Kuyt are quite valid, works hard for the team and scores goals. Cant see him getting a better club than us at all. Other than the top 5, where would he be better off. And lets be honest, how many games would he get in a top 5 club, not many I reckon

[peter w]

Althoughwehaveplayed wellfor a few months we forget that's all we've done. Well donefor what they'veproduced but seriously for most of theseason most players have been largely poor. weimann included. He'll go nowhere better.

[villan from luton]

Peter W, I would not say he has been poor for the majority of the season tbh, has given a good account of himself
