Does that one terrific performance against Hull make up for all the really poor ones this season? Only because of the importance of the game? A great pity he couldn't be bothered to perform earlier in the season, we wouldn't have been in this mess in the first place. Squad player for me, news thing more.
I'm sure it is nothing to do with him being "bothered". He has had a poor season because (i) Benteke has been in and out of the team (Weimanns goals last season were often a result of linking up with the Beast), (ii) the midfield has been poor this season, and (iii) he's been playing in a poor side generally.
Weimann is a goal scorer and I think we will see him hit lots more for Villa in the future.

I wasn't impressed with his cupped ears dig at the fans. He's been a sack of shit this season and if he disses the fans again then he can leave as far as I'm concerned.
He needs a much better season next time .

each player at the end of the season should be given a compilation dvd of a previous villa player in there position.

full backs- john gidman, kenny swain,gary williams and charlie aitken
centre backs- evans, mcnaught, mellberg and laursen
midfield- mortimer ,cowans,cropley, carrodus and taylor
forwards-gray,little,yorke,withe and shaw

then be told when you pull on that villa shirt that is the level of performance that is expected of you and nothing less than that will be tolerated

He probably doesn't think much of you either.

Do people still think players instigate comments that are reported in the media, rather than being led by the interviewer.  The days of the thinking footballer who can be bothered to go beyond the standard football clichés is long gone.  Life seems too short for that now.  Damn you www.iamintoomuchhurry.com

Yes that was unnecessary. Not only he has been poor all this season  before he scored on Saturday he made of mess of at least 3 good attacking positions/scoring opportunities. He has not earned the right to have a go at the fans just yest.

Tbh, im dissapointed with him and his celebration. Yes he has had some criticsism but its been all justified as his performances have been poor along with the majority of other players and they have had stick also. Andi seems to think he is some 'big time' player and this season should have brought his ego down a level, he needs to just get his head down and perform like we know he can because he can be a decent player just needs to show it more

Why the sarcastic comment? People are entitled to opinions. Wiemann might think he's not been deserving of the criticism but many of us think he is.

I think you've answered your first sentence with your second sentence. Your third sentence is probably answered by that also!

Just remember the gnashing and wailing last summer because we thought we might lose him.  Young player 2nd full season and does something rash when he finally scores to get a monkey off his back.  I rate him and glad we've got him, yes he's been played through a lean patch by the manager who should have given him a rest and taken him out of the firing line, but with injuries he was needed.  Plus he's scored the winners in games that have kept us up twice in three seasons!

I interpreted the ear-cupping thing as aimed at the hull fans after they taunted us with 'going down' chants when they equalised? Could well be wrong though. Very poor if it was aimed at us.

Does anybody think some of his disappointing form this season could be due to not being as fit as he should be, owing to the alleged lack of training sessions as directed by Karsa and Culverhouse?

No you're wrong. He stood right in front of the Villa fans in the lower North and cupped his ears. It was clearly a dig at the fans. What a nerve considering the pile of shit he has served up this season.

It was poor on his part, but I think we have to take into account it was an emotional reaction and it's not like he hasn't got some stick from the crowd. He's human after all, it was an error and I think everyone should move on.
