I like Weimann. He struggled this season but in fairness most of them did. He's one i'd be keeping hold of because i think he'll get better as he gets older.
only if he is played as a striker. Not a wide player. He'd pretty shite out wide.

Cresswell? We get linked with him every summer. He must be in his late 30's now.

I reckon Weimann as a central striker would get you 13-15 goals a season.

This.

Also it'd help if he was rested from time to time instead of being made to play every week even though the lad is clearly physically and mentally shot

Weimann is a pretty good centre forward to be fair. An instinctive finisher, a good work rate, fox in the box. Completely wasted on the flanks.

Not for me.

I also think that. I'd fuck him off. Just for that (I think I'm Alan Shearer, who the fuck are you?) Cupped-ear-goal-celebration...

Bertrand was fairly crap really. Poor positioning and all too easily shouldered off the ball. Which makes those preening selfies of him all the more twattish.

His form steadily declined the longer he was with us, worryingly.

Thought Neil (?) Taylor at Swansea looked like a decent left back.

his lack of regular football since he started his career has obviously not helped him. He should have left Chelsea years ago.

He was ok until he got his injury at the start of 12/13 - Ben Davies is much better than him. He'd probably be for sale if someone offered.

Yep and obviously being around all those Chelsea show pony wankers has rubbed off on him if his ridiculous picture collection is anything to go by.
He's an okay player, but I'd be looking elsewhere. I'd also loath doing business with Mourinho who'll make damn sure he gets as much as possible for Bertrand.

I don't think coming into the coaching orbit of the Tweedles helped much to be fair. When he first arrived from 'The Bridge', there was definitely a footballer there, then C & K went to work and you were just left with another narcissistic prat.

Our original agent is now a free agent after the Baggies let him go. Says it all when he'd be an upgrade on all the eejits we've tried-out at left back in the past 18 months (Enda, Moon, Gordon Bennett and Plastic).

Not sure whose 'lifestyle' pics are in worse taste though, his or Bertrand...
