He will get subbed for a midfielder

Just Google his name and you'll see all the positive articles on him

Winning FA Cup final goal coming up.

Had he been quicker and sharper our 1-1 at Villa Park would have been a win and 3 points. That would have probably kept us up

Whatever .. with Martial being injured it looks like he will be in the Man U squad at the very least in the Cup Final on Saturday. That will mean at a minimum he will have a major English football winners and runners-up medal, possibly two winners medals, in less than six months. Two more than Harry Kane has ever had!

Perhaps a good game for Burnley at Brighton apart he never floated my boat in a Burnley shirt but if he doesn't get a deal he wants if United turn him down in the summer, he will be a Burnley player on Premier League wages for another two years

but then we wouldn't have won the league at Ewood, I'm glad he missed

I Hope he scores the winning goal on Saturday.
Good luck to him. I don’t think there are many of us on here who wouldn’t have taken steps to progress our career.That’s pretty much what he did.
He’s not a Burnley fan. He’s a professional sportsman, probably nearing the end of his career.
UTC.

And the fact is we paid a lot of money for him and have had very little back, and have treat him well and gone by his wishes.

I wish him well the same as you but he's employed by us. We're not just here to give him a free ride.

Good news, a hat-trick to beat City would likely up his re-sale value.

Do you think it was optional not to go by his wishes it was conditional prior to signing him.

I think it probably was actually unless he had a release clause which if he did nobody has met it. Maybe he had a clause in his contract for a loan transfer but we will never know. Otherwise in general, no you wouldn't break a promise unless it was hard times and we had no choice.

My point though was we have facilitated not just 1 but 2 loan transfers for him and he was talking about his future at United beyond this season and speaking with them. He hasn't mentioned returning to Burnley from what I can see.

I don't see the loyalty that some fans are showing to him reciprocated.

It's in our interests & his for the loan agreements to be arranged, we don't want him & he doesn't want to play for us, it's an unhappy marriage with no future & mutually we need to work a way out of it with minimal financial loss.

Plenty of whistling in the dark here.

Damage limitation is the only game in town where Weghorst is concerned, so best get used to it.

I he's not answering his phone then hopefully Vinny has left a message for him like:
Hi Wout, we start pre-season training on (date and time), see you there. See how that pans out.

The point still stands - we had no choice not to go along with his wishes, I picked up on the other poster trying to make it sound as if we was doing the bloke a favour when we wasn't but right in every other way.

I think he’d be a good addition to the team if any lightbulbs need changing.

Not if they need fetching from the storeroom.

If we sign any of these big name players we are linked with this summer, then they will all have relegation clauses in their contracts.

Get used to it

Some glaring facts about Wout Weghorst.
• He couldn’t hit a cows arse with a banjo
• He is slower than Adrian Randall
• He is an arse

Here is another fact:

His EPL strike rate is lower than Ben Mee’s.

Get rid a.s.a.p.

That must be why he played all those games for Man United then, and their highly rated manager mustn’t have a clue what he is doing?

Wout is currently a claret and as such I hop he has an excellent game on Saturday and gets on the scoresheet. However, I have to say that I don’t think he’s what we need this season. As a forward player he consistently misses chances that he should be taking.

it wouldn't be UTC without one outlandish claim being followed by one even more outlandish

Its well weird

I wish we could just leave him alone until we know what his future is. Too many entrenched positions which might mean VK can’t resurrect his Burnley career even if he wants to.

Ten Haag finds a use for him. So it isn’t inconceivable that VK could want the same.

I guess a lot will depend on Wout’s attitude. I know some are saying his attitude is not good but from what I have seen he always seems to give it his all. If he is prepared to do what VK wants then I that’s good. But I still don’t rate him.

I still think that was a good block by Mings tbf. It’s Cornet’s miss at Norwich and pen miss at WHU I look back on.

They still annoy me because although we’ve had a great season, we could’ve had a longer uninterrupted period in the Prem. Although maybe our new style needed to be seeded in a lower division!

I think that there are a number of possible reasons why his career numbers haven’t matched his Prem Numbers. Only one of which is he isn’t very good. He has something about him but his confidence is through the floor. He may be able to come through. There have been games for us and Utd where he has been good. He works hard and has good technique. That might be enough to get VK interested in at least trying him.

Reports online that Dyche wants to buy Weghorst. Seems a strange one because it clearly didn’t work between manager and player with us. If true then his recruitment policy seems severely limited…

How do you know it didn't work between Dyche and Weghorst?

Imagine this is lazy journalism. Media will just see it as Dyche having signed Weghorst before without really do their homework.

Agent Dyche filling the Burnley coffers.

What's your evidence for this.
Weghorst started every game for Dyche until his departure. It was Jackson who dropped him.
That rather suggests that Dyche rated him.

so was WW a Dyche signing then?

Weghorst wasn't a dyche signing I don't think he had much of a say in it, he played him he had to really, can you imagine him not playing him the position the club was in, would have been an uproar with everybody excited about him & not knowing thinking he would have been a success, that much pressure you had to give the lad a go despite any misgivings.

You just know that Everton will be our first opponents next season.

Not sure why you ask?
Dyche was certainly our manager at the time, and he was always in his starting eleven.
Was Dyche told that he had to sign him and play him? I doubt that Dyche would have worn that, and based on Dyche's record with the club, he wouldn't have picked him unless they saw eye to eye and he rated him.
To be honest, I'm not really sure that he fits into a Dyche type system, but nonetheless Dyche persisted with him, so he must have been seeing something on the training ground.

Just wondered as SD had apparently been relieved of those duties by the previous chairman.

It does strike me coming from talksport and their track record that they have just linked weghorst to Everton because he played for dyche, surprised Taylor and Brownhill haven’t been linked to Everton yet

Still can’t decide on which is his worst comment he’s made about us

The brownhill for free
The cornet thinking he was a loan player and claiming he had a source who says that happens a lot
Saying we where more likely to do a Sunderland
