Aston Villa boss Tim Sherwood has told Andreas Weimann he can leave and the 23-year-old Austria international could become new Derby County manager Paul Clement's first signing. (Daily Mail)


Now he would do for us!

[Fordy]

Good little player him.

[Yousef]

He is 23 and has been at Villa since 2010 with 112 games. This is the type player we should exactly AVOID signing because a move to the Championship will not excite him and is step back for him.

We need a striker who view us a step up just like when we signed Charlie Austin otherwise he won't give 100%. Andre Gary, Jordan Rhodes (at a reasonable price not £12m) or any potential striker who plays for PL side but has not got his chance like Patrick Bamford 2 years ago (not now). Another option is a young European striker who needs a good scouting.

Utter nonsense, imho... You must never have seen him play.

A good little player, who has personally destroyed us with his play on at least one occasion.

And following your logic,

1.) we are not and should not, be spending £12 million again
2.) Rhodes - would he see us as a step up ??? No chance.

[Ginger Ninja]

Sign him up!

[West Acton]

I suggested getting him last August for the prem but got told he was s hit

I would snap him up now; proper pocket rocket makes defenders work for the whole game and never gives them a minutes rest. Very similar to Mackie but a better version in my book. Would be a hit in the Bush

Get him in Rangers

I disagree but that's what makes this game fun, I think if we are looking at fast paced football, then he is exactly the type of player we should be looking at.

Rhodes is a player I wanted at Rangers since he was at Huddersfield, can't believe he is still at Blackburn and MCCormack got an £11m move to Fulham.

If we structure a deal with Blackburn similar to the way Fulham and Leeds did that deal, we could well get him, a portion of that £11m is based on promotion.

Same as west Acton, and I even made a thread concerning this player.

I like him, he always seems to play with the right attitude.

He was on loan at Watford where he was decent and scored quite a few.

Definitely someone that would help us progress I'd say.

[dave58]

Descent player, would do well for us, not sure a couple of prem or bigger teams with a real chance of going up will be in for him, that he would prefer/

[Shepherds Mush]

Scored 4 in 18 games for Watford.....

Not a prolific striker by any means but useful. Could be a good fit for us though but alongside an out and out goalscorer.

[bakes8]

Not a bad player.

[acricketer]

Would CR want a player his best mate doesn't rate?

[californiahoop]

Doesn't rate in the prem: would do very well for us in the champ: and young enough to improve.

[swede]

Not good enough as a fw, and if we keep Phillips I can't see where we should fit him in.
