The idea's a very appealing one. I don't do that kinda stuff, but it's a great way to get people involved and get himself involved with fans.
My favorite is his poacher's mentality. When he came on against Caen I constantly saw him on the back shoulder of the last defender ready to make runs.
From the few clips and short appearances I've seen of him I am impressed that he is able to play at the highest pace of the game....it's not just that he is physically fast as a runner but that his playing style works at any speed of play....I get the feeling he won't ever suffer from the game being "too fast" for him...which is huge. Also, he has the ability to take players 1 on 1 and beat them (and score)....which is also huge. he also seems to have his head in the right place...hustles, plays with high motor....
The guy he reminds me the most is actually the one he is backing up. Cavani. That's exactly why I believe PSG is absolutely perfect club for Weah.
He kind of reminds me of a young Beasley with more skill and power. Beasley was quick, agile and very smart with his runs and movement. But, his ball skills often let him down and he was so slight he fell apart and could be muscled out of good offensive positions. Tim's strengths seem to be his quickness, agility and movement, but also his ability on the ball. He's strong enough not to get pushed aside easily as well. And, his mentality seems very good, confident, a bit brash, desire and willingness to work and achieve. He wants to be king of the world and if you don't, you'll never get there. As much as I'd prefer to be patient and keep expectations lower with such a young player, it's hard not to get excited by his potential. Fingers crossed for his future.
He also acts like the kid he is which is great to see. A surprising number of players don't seem to take pleasure in what they do, and rather just see it as a means to an end
his greatest strength this season will be entering at the 70th minute and watching defenders faces register the thought of, "oh, kill me now." Intelligent runs and crazy fast... he'll have ample late game opportunities.
And Jogabo, the Tinder for soccer players looking for a pickup game, is now available in Android. Yay.
Some great commentary here on Weah's current situation with some varying opinions: http://www.beinsports.com/us/ligue-1/video/the-locker-room-tim-weah-get-chances-psg/953283
In the traveling squad for tomorrow's match.....1 player on this list won't dress. Mbappe is back, still no Cavani
For those that haven't been keeping up, there's a lot of drama sureounding Adrien Rabiot and his refusal to sign a new contract. There's been threats of him getting benched (To be fair this talk was going on before the first game too, and he still played). Will be interesting to keep an eye on. It would slide Nkunku back to the midfield and theoretically move Weah up the pecking order
Thought Mbappe would be out another game. Haven’t found any projected lineups yet for the game Sunday. Might be too early or I’m not looking in the right places. Unless PSG are tied or down I’d expect he’s a late sub again.
You'd think they would use Weah as a sub for DiMaria or Mbappe or Neymar whenever any of them come off.
Possibility that Mbappe doesn’t start. Then comes off the bench and is first sub used. Who came off the bench last game that wouldn’t come off the bench this game before Weah? Or prevent Weah from getting on the field.

I guess someone at PSG doesn’t think he’s worth enough to be on the website but Kehrer already is: https://en.psg.fr/teams/first-team/squad
