Ashz09 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Much better. Think Russell will be dropped. All effort again tonight but no end product. Was his shot yet again a pass back to the Goal Keeper or a shot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But knowing how much Russell is protected, it'll be Weimann who's dropped. Russell was significantly below his normal s**** standard last night.

Lawrence shouldn't automatically just displace someone, would be bad for confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's like Marmite. I do want him to do well as he works hard but nothing is coming off good for him. He needs a few games with some goals to get some confidence as you can tell he has 0% confidence at the moment. Think a new club will benefit him and us in some ways.

He swapped with Russell a few times throughout the game. He clearly is happy playing RW. Lawrence is most dangerous on the LW. The whole reason we signed him was to be a threat, he needs to be played in his best position to be a threat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many times have you seen him play to conclude where he is at his most dangerous? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the goals he's scored don't seem to show him stuck on the wing tbh, but I'm no expert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RamLad1884 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Weimann and Vydra seem to be where the real link up play appeared last night. Two fast thinking and skillful players playing off each other. Hopefully both can stay fit as they're both going to be real assets this season, Throw Lawrence into the mix plus Martin/Nugent and the front 4 will be very strong this season. Long live the 4-2-3-1, Viva La Rowett Revolution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamsPolls Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Weimann to start ahead of Russell at Sheffield I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We already knew a pacy poacher who can't hold the ball up doesn't fit our main system. We can't play as a wide man in a front 3, making Russell look like Hazard, Was it because we could? For those who think this is harsh, ask yourself this question. If someone offered the £2m we paid for him would you take it? Nice to see that now we are playing in style that suits him, he is doing pretty well, especially away from home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester Ram Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Stretches the field really well on the right and gives Huddlestone an out ball. His energy suits Rowett too. Very happy he's stepped up and become the player I thought he'd be for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MackworthRamIsGod Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 I am really enjoying watching Weimann at the minute. Absolutely buzzing Wolves decided not to sign him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sexydadbod Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 I would say that I'm surprised at his good form but I'm really not. Villa fans told us that his best position is either on the wide right or down the middle but for some reason, our previous managers decided not to play him in either position consistently.

sage Posted December 16, 2017 Author Share Posted December 16, 2017 I still wouldn't start him at home against teams that are likely to sit back as counter attacking with space behind the back 4 is his strength. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gritstone Ram Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 still a strange one for me. he is the only person who can be the best and worst player on the pitch on the same day. May be recently he hasn't been the worst but still gives moments of immense frustration. Good goal today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why may I ask would you not start him against teams who sit back? He is a better finisher than any of our other wide players. I do agree we need to tweak the team in such games but would suggest lose 1 of the DM’s or 3 at the back would create the extra body we need to break down a crowded defence. He seems the embodiment of a confidence player to me. A good run of games would be far better than benching the lad in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
