Wayne Routledge signs 3 year deal with Swansea

[Guest firetotheworks]

Why does anyone even think that S.Taylor will be playing at RB? Is it even worth mentioning? It was only that mad old cunt, Kinnear who tried it. iirc, Hughton has never played him there.

Hughton played him at RB in all his games in the 08/09 season. Starting with WBA away, ending at SJP against Arsenal.

 

Don't know if that was the case in Hughton's first spell as well, though.

I'd like to see Tavernier get a few cup games behind Routledge, I like what I've seen this pre-season.

Really? I must have just totally erased that from my memory.

[Super Duper Branko Strupar]

I still think S Taylor is our best bet at RB, physical presence, decent pace and that. Shame he's injured and/or won't get tried out there.

 

Not on the ball

Looking good for the lad. Im excited about what he can do for Carroll as well. Totally right about needing a better quality RB to help him out, someone he won't need to think about having to cover for all the time so he can concentrate on his game and get some support.

Without knowing much I think Perch sounds better at this than either Simpson, Saylor or Ryalor. Don't know why he's been playing CB mind, kind of worries me.

 

Can't play Williamson every pre-season game, Campbell isn't fit, we have nobody else aside from young Tavernier.

 

Pourquoi?

[TaylorJ_01]

Would be good to give Tavernier a bash at right back.

at right back he did, very attacking aswell when he played there.

[madras]

the main worry i have with routledge is that most everywhere he's been (and theres been a few clubs for one so young) he's started off very well then tailed off after a few months.

Not for QPR. Or Palace.

Or Spurs

Daft.

yes,pompey and fulham, even spurs to some point. and he defeinitly taikled off at palace.

[midds]

It's up to Hughton to keep him interested and motivated enough to produce from August til May tbh.

 

On the positive side, he should be number 1 choice at RW (not sure if he was at Spurs or Fulham?) so he'll get plenty of games and should see plenty of the ball to perform. We'll just have to wait and see.

 

 

[Pilko]

The difference is that at other PL teams he wasn't first choice - unless we sign a far-better out and out right winger (very unlikely) then he's pretty much guaranteed a start here.

Because he probably isn't fit enough to. Pre-season is all about conditioning after all.

[TaylorJ_01]

Ryan Taylor is a decent option to have if Routledge misses a game or two. Would be a bit concerned if he got injured for a while though.

 

What's surprised me is Routledge's crossing and shooting. It's really very impressive. He's like the opposite of Jonas.

[Keefaz]

Brilliant signing by Hughton, tbh. Hope to god he stays fit.

[Disco]

No he fucking isn't. He is absolute dross.

 

We have 0 out and out replacements if Jonas/Routledge get injured currently. Will mean shunting Guthrie, Barton or Vuckic out there I'd imagine or god forbid one of the strikers. Lets hope Chris saw Shola's efforts on the wing back in the day - woeful.

[Ronaldo]

Ryan Taylor is a terrible player with very good delivery.

You reckon?

 

I'm really not in the 'Saylor can do a job at RB' camp, not one little bit.

Decent option doesn't mean I think he's good. Ryan Taylor will at least pick up a couple of assists and will allow us to be a threat from set-pieces (Guthrie too). Dare I say with half the games Ryan Taylor could probably rack up the same amount of assists as Jonas.

 

We aren't in a position to get cover and good, cheap wingers are hard to come by. For me, Ryan Taylor provides decent cover in the right-back and right-mid areas.

Which is why we should've bought Miroslav Stoch for £2.5m.

 

Ronaldo's post sums R.Taylor up perfectly.

[Guest Heneage]

Early days I know, but I'd be looking at trying to get Weiss next year or someone to at least challenge him, he was the weakest outfield player today imo.
