Been an excellent servant, if he wants to move on fine, doesn't deserve the " get rid of " happy to have in the squad | |

Best winger we have, why would we sell him? | | | |
| Wayne routledge on 15:45 - Jul 23 with 4781 views | Headmaster |
We should have no time for sentiment. Yes he's been good for us, but is no longer. If he was as good as Leon still is, I wouldn't say so much. He needs to go, like Taylor before him, so we can get an upgrade. Montero and Barrow should also go too. Free up their wages and spend the money on players who can start regularly.
We still need a winger, right back, and a midfielder. That's without replacing Sigurdsson should he leave. Starters, not squad players. [Post edited 23 Jul 2017 15:46]

There's a difference between no sentiment and the lack of respect signified by "get rid". | |

We need squad players too. We can't go into the season with a squad of 18. He shouldn't be any more than a squad player next season, but if he goes, we need to replace him in that capacity. Montero and Barrow will probably go if anyone wants them. No issue with Routledge going, he looked shot at times last season, but he does provide cover on both sides and in an emergency, in the middle. We would need to replace him with another squad player who can cover those positions. | | | |

Fine servant. Respectfully, I'd let him go.
There was a period last season where a very high percentages of his passes were not finding our player. Also he cant seem to find the net when given a half chance. I think the Premier League has improved immeasurably over the past 3 years or so and left Wayne behind.
Will he take the cut in wages in return for first team football? | |

I'd let Monty and Mo go before Routs. | |

Fair comment. I'd love us to sign a winger with his brain, but more pace and especially composure | | | |

This..
Ridiculous sentiment for a player who has very little impact at this level now.
And a three year contract WTF [Post edited 23 Jul 2017 17:04]

Narsingh is better IMO.
Best of luck to Wayne if he goes.
I must say I was usually disappointed when he was selected last season | |
| |
| Wayne routledge on 17:32 - Jul 23 with 4224 views | Dewi1jack |
Trouble is, although we need better I know, he is better to have on the bench or on the park than Jeff or Barrow.
At least Routs will help out the defence.
And I don't see us buying 2 wingers let alone 3 or 4
For me, keep as a squad player.
We're woefully short in the starters let alone the squad | |

That's how I see it too, though I'd put him much further down the pecking order now than I would have in the past. In truth, we probably need to replace him, even as a squad player, but he can do a job until we do. | | | |

If he really has the footballing brain that some of our fans believe then he would have averaged more than 2 goals and 2 assists a season since he's been here. We need wingers with far superior ability than routledge has ever had to really progress. | | | |

No room for sentiment especially on the back of last season
Needs to be moved on | |

He does. The managers who have kept picking him believed it too. He has always suffered from stage fright when through on goal or looking to play a killer pass though. It's massively frustrating and I can't defend him on it, it's a glaring weakness.
He probably does need moving on, but not until we have better backup options. | | | |

I'd add Dyer to that list it's seems sentiment is forgotten when it comes to little Nath | | | |

Routledge played a major part in our success story in the premiership.
Unfortunately his consistency has faltered over last 18 months. ( Difficult undercurrent
at the club granted ) . Good luck to him if he leaves.
Gylfi going to Everton will surely see 'statement' signings throughout side.
Gylfi saga aside I think Paul Clement would have wanted to trim squad and get better competition in certain positions. The wide position needs strengthening. | | | |

Says more about the lack of quality in the rest of our wingers I'm afraid.
Great servant but I'd sell at the the right price. | | | |
| Wayne routledge on 18:36 - Jul 23 with 3880 views | JackSomething |
How's that average compare to our other wingers in the PL era? I wouldn't have thought any of them other than Sinclair would be much better. | |

It's one of the truths of football. Fans abuse their own players like this yet expect them to show total loyalty in return. | |
