Unbelievable Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I'm a bit concerned about this to be honest. Radio tonight said Nolan had been sent home with illness, so I'm not really sure who we have in midfield for tomorrow, other than Barton, Guthrie and Jonas. Uh oh..

Guest Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 He had probably the best coach of wingers and crossers of a ball there is at Villa. Milner & Young improved under Robertson & O'Neill, Routledge has stood still for years. Routledge was only at Villa for less than a year and only played twice, that's hardly giving him a chance to prove anything. He was at Spurs for a couple of years too and did nowt though as well?

Haha, yeah, we don't have any other first-team midfielders. Which is why this is so ridiculous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to Wiki - Kazenga Lua Lua (on loan?) - Harris Vuckic - Shane Ferguson - Ryan Donaldson - Bradden Inman (who??) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 He was at Spurs for a couple of years too and did nowt though as well? He played 5 games at Spurs and that was spread over a 3 or 4 year period in which he was loaned out twice. His assists record for us last season, which is more relevant than when he was 19 or 20 years old is one in almost every two games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordiemonster Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Inman was born in Australia to an English father, Dave,[1] and a Scottish mother, Lorraine,[1] as the youngest of four children. He began playing soccer at six years old. Inman played for the youth team of the Modbury Jets where he captained the side for two years. His coach said Inman was "an attacking architect, a workaholic in the midfield and [that he] has excellent vision."[2] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Displayed phenomenal form last season, but no-one in the squad has tailed off and failed to make the step-up as clearly as this guy. Really big shame cos the ability is proven to be there. Not bothered about the fact we're losing him but i see a loan as a little pointless. Hopefully there'll be a sell-on clause.

So, if Nolan is out of the running for tomorrow, how would you line up in midfield, and who would you have on the bench to come on in midfield and make an impact?

Only option I can think is to put Shane Ferguson in there somewhere and hope for the best. Just shows how weak our squad is really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you could put Ranger on the right, or Ferguson left and Jonas right, and it wouldn't have any different outcome to the way the game goes than if Routledge played.

geordiemonster Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 When you look at the midfielders Spurs have it just shows the gap between us and them. Gareth Baile Tom Huddlestone Aaron Lennon Jermaine Jenas Rafael Van Der Vart Wilson Palacios Luka Modric Niko Krankjar Jamie O'Hara Stephen Pienar All but two would walk into our squad I reckon.

Willow Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Hmm don't really agree with this loan right now unless we have other players coming in, he's an excellent squad member - at least it's just a loan though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I'm sorry to see Routledge go TBH, first because I think given a run in the team he could still do a job, secondly because our midfield squad is thinner than a really thin thing now.

Ranger needs games in the middle, not on the wing. As for Jonas, I don't think he's any better than Routledge and was getting as much stick as Routledge earlier this season, in fact he was probably getting more because I remember sticking up for Jonas.

geordiemonster Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Jamie O'Hara, but that's simply because I don't know enough about him to make a judgment. I wouldn't have Jenas back to be honest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
