Or NRC

i should have made clear that after the pointing there was some productivity. It would have eliminated all thought of NRC.

Ha ha, yes that's true
Remember that time he couldn't control the ball and won a penalty at Liverpool for it

I'll always remember a villa game we drew - not sure who against. NRC won the ball and we had a two on one. All he had to do was slip the forward in (gabby I think) but he passed it straight at their defender. It was so bad that I almost immediately gave up on him

I suspect there may be a point in weimann's villa career where I do the same. He is capable of breathtaking shitness sometimes.

We played Chelsea in a Saturday evening game and Reo-Coker managed to find himself one on one with Cech. As soon as it was clear who was clean through, you just knew there was one outcome.

The game finished 0-0.

There was also one game late on vs Chavski (I think) and he broke clear towards The Holte. As soon as I saw it was him my confidence went. He shot wide.

There was an instance on Saturday when Weimann, with the ball at his feet, no Newcastle player within 5 yards of him, and N'Zogbia in acres of space 20 yards away, managed to pass the ball straight into the crowd. He really is one of the most technically inept players we've ever had. Even his winner last week came after a terrible first touch.

I remember that. Liverpool when we drew up there. Think it was the game Harewood scored that ridiculous overhead kick.

Think it was actually the other way around and Gabby should have played in NRC, but tried to beat the defender and failed.

I remember the moment well:

"What a shit first touch! Goal!!" said a certain someone.

Weiman annoyed me Saturday a few times but one was when there was two free players including aly in a fantastic dangerous position and he decided to do a tonev from thirty yards that hit the defender.

In his head, Weimann is a lot closer to being Messi than he really is.

I thought he was poor today. Ok, first game, and not expecting to start. But, he should have been ready to play. He looked a little lost in the middle. Hope he manages to improve.

One of the worst full debuts I can recall. Absolutely dreadful. Nothing like the player I saw in the World Cup. He will get better (I hope). But positionally he looked lost and on the ball he was way too cumbersome and was very nervy.
A debut to forget. I'm not sure whether Lamberts decision to leave him him so long was either cruel, inept,  insane, or perhaps a brave move to see Carlos walk on the coals and hopefully come out stronger the other side. I would say probably one of Lamberts insane or inept decisions.

He's clearly a few months away. Take him out the side for a bit. Get Westy back ASAP, or play Rico or Bacuna in the middle. I'd bring Sanchez gradually in through November during "easier" games, when hopefully he's more settled and his English has improved because I wonder if communication might also be a problem in training but on the pitch too. He looked lost throughout the whole game.

to be fair he probably has had very little of a pre season but he needs taking out of the firing line pronto.
