The verdict

Weimann’s form at the start of the new Championship season has been excellent and he is proving to be just what the Robins need in the final third.

Pearson seems to have given the attacker a lot of confidence and he looks like he has the belief that everytime he enters the field he is going to make a real difference and add to his goal tally.

Against Cardiff, Weimann was able to demonstrate his work rate and also his quality throughout the 89 minutes he was on the field for. He managed to register three efforts on target, completed one successful dribble, made one tackle and also three clearances in an all-round display.

If Bristol City can keep Weimann fit and firing then they will have a chance of doing something this season under Pearson. The forward will need to maintain his form in front of goal and he could be on track to reach well into double figures considering he already has four league strikes to his name.
