I think this signing makes perfect sense. I've said since the start of the season that we need two more wide-men and I'm surprised we've managed to get 2nd without that.

Perhaps this signing allows Weimann to be a central striker like he wants to be. We have enough wide players now that he doesn't need to be used out wide where he's clearly not suited.

I see us primarily sticking with 4-3-3 and then having our main options as this:

LW - Russell, Camara

RW - Ince, Blackman

ST - Martin, Weimann, Bent

One thing that I take from the above is that we now have serious pace. A frontline of Camara, Weimann, Blackman is extremely quick. Maybe Clement will look to deploy it when we're up against teams that will have a go at us, giving us the opportunity to absorb pressure with our excellent defence and then counter attack. Give the ball to Thorne or Butterfield and then hit a long diagonal to one of our new runners.

I'd like to see Phillips turn Weimann into the next Vardy! Kerrrrr-ching!
