Yorkie Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I wouldn't drop him, i'd just give him a fucking huge kick up the arse, and tell him to put a lot more fucking graft in on the training ground. We signed him in desperation as Ryan Taylor wasn't good enough to play the wing in the Championship. Resroting back to that is just a total non-starter. Routledge isn't playing well at the moment and he needs telling, not dropping. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmk Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I just don't think he has enough in his game to be good at premier league level. We don't have any other options really at the moment apart from Ryan Taylor though so hopefully he improves. I'd be tempted to start Ryan Taylor away from home anyway to give Perch a bit more help.

Dokko Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Aimless. Perfectly summed up in one word. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 To be fair, he did work hard for what it was worth, helped Perch out a fair bit tracking back. What pisses me off with Routledge is that after failing to make it at Spurs and Villa, you'd think he'd be busting a gut to prove himself in the premier, but he just doesn't give that impression at all. Happy just to coast it and be anonymous for most games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BONTEMPI Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Needs to play off the front man if you ask me as we are seriously lacking pace up there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Routledge just doesn't seem to have the confidence he played with last season, think he has the ability but not sure he has the belief. Has never done well at Prem level, maybe it's just a step too far for him. Not sure Ryan Taylor is much of an alternative though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I think Hughton will make the right decision and stick with him. It's such a default 'opinion'... Player X isn't playing well atm so replace him with Player Y even though it's blatantly obvious that he's even shitter. Routledge is blatantly the best right-winger in the squad and i'd rather he just recieved a bit of hair-dryer treatment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I'd rather have Routledge than Taylor. Routledge can be a threat to teams with his pace Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I'd rather have Routledge than Taylor. Routledge can be a threat to teams with his pace That's kinda like saying Nolan CAN be a threat to teams by scoring goals. It doesn't really mean a hell of a lot if they're rarely doing it.

wormy Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I'd rather have Routledge than Taylor. Routledge can be a threat to teams with his pace That's kinda like saying Nolan CAN be a threat to teams by scoring goals. It doesn't really mean a hell of a lot if they're rarely doing it. It's not that we think Routledge is good enough, we all realise he's not up to standard right now. But we'd rather have him on than Ryan Taylor. At least he's got something to throw at the opposition in his pace, rather than Taylor, except his set pieces, which I don't think are that good that they replace Routledge.

Begbie Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 IMHO Wayne Routledge is nowhere near to be a Premiership player. Everytime anyone gets near him he looses the ball, and he doesnt go into challanges at all. He is decent when noone is near him. To bad Ben Arfa is injured long time now, I was really looking forward to see him or Jonas on the right side.. Our weekest positions is Right side and we lack a good striker.

BottledDog Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 The only slight dissapointment today. Seems to have lost the confidence to take on his man. Glad that we have him though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Looks out of his depth which is a shame because he seems a down to earth person. Wonder if we might be tempted to bring back Lua Lua just to put some pressure on him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliottman Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Total no show today. He was great last year, but just looks a totally different player in this league. shame. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colocho Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Another player, like Williamson and Perch who simply isn't good enough for the Prem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BooBoo Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 He's hiding at the moment. Won't take his man on, won't come forward. Constantly takes the easy way option of playing inside or back to the full back. Seems unwilling to run forward with the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest palnese Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 He is 25 now, 26 in January. He has never made it in this league, and I think he is starting to show why that is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colocho Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 After so many knock backs he's scared of the Premiership, I'm telling you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has never made it in this league, and I think he is starting to show why that is. funny though, coz he took the piss in the championship. also, dont agree with the post above about Williamson. He can hold his own in this league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
