TRon Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 I would rather he just put his head down and forced the situation more, and then if he failed miserably everyone would know he wasn't good enough and then could move on. Unfortunately, he has just completely frozen at this level. He's not even going for it when he has the chance. Just ends up getting rid of the ball too early. huge shame, because as numerous others have said, I think he would have some success if he was more aggressive/direct. Shame. Sums him up for me. Like Guthrie has the ability to be twice the player he's shown so far but just not got the desire or hunger to make it happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hakka Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 I don't want Routledge to go. Believe he can be an important squad player. His pace to bring on late in a game against tired legs is useful. Also, I still think he may have potential to become a central midfielder and use his pace through the centre. May not work, but he does have reasonable first touch and holds on to the ball well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 The problem is that clubs before us have seen this in Routledge, hence why he's never made it as a regular player in the top flight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 I hope we don't sell him unless we have another RW lined up. Beyond Barton we're woefully short on the RW. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattypnufc Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Must be another right winger in on the cards then surely? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Weird one, unless we've done it to sweeten the Taraabt move the other way. So now we have no backup on either wing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 probably due to gosling coming into the squad proper. i know he's not a winger but he has played wide right a bit. or hopefully someone coming in, if not i'd have kept routledge here.

Chris_R Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 If we get someone better to replace him, no real problem with this. If we don't, it's a pretty shite idea all round. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Think this has been in the pipeline for a while now, which was why all our primary targets this window were RWs. I suppose Pardew sees Gosling as an RW Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
