.... when Wayne Routledge leaves the Liberty. One of the all time Greats.
Extended to the end of the season, Naughts and Van der Hoof too! 👠| |

I often used to think 'What's the point of Wayne?' when watching him live. The infuriating outside of the foot cross into the box for a defender to gobble up, the mazy run that led nowhere, the unsuccessful tracing back. BUT, watching replays of games since lockdown I've appreciated his cleverness and awareness of the whole pitch and the rest of his own team. Turns out I was wrong, he was good. Lots of great assists. Not many goals though. | | | |

If he brought what he’s brought to the team over the last 10 years and he could finish, I doubt we’d have ever been able to sign him. | | | |

If you follow that line of thinking, then you must think Leon was pretty sh*t too. | |

Settled, happy, multi millionaire.
Thanks to Swansea folk, as I said it buys loyalty.
Sorry but my belief in any footballer as a person has entered a new low in the past 3 months. | |

He wouldn’t get in our top 50. | |

People would put Bodde in a top 50 too. | |

Routs and Dyer love them both  | | | |

Routs is up there with our best.
Loved by our best managers; loathed by our worst (and our worst uninformed fans).
Says it all. | | | |

I think he is a good intelligent footballer who has done us proud. | | | |

Loathed ?
Not sure about that. | |

Had about 10 clubs (loan and signed) before us, found his home here | | | |

Fantastic footballer, great value for money signing and plied his trade mostly at the top table.
Pound for pound one of the best signings made by the Swans. | | | |

Well said Icey. Nice to see you back. | |

Really good footballer considering he may as well have only had 1 leg. Intelligent, and good for the dressing room by all accounts. As not loyal pointed out, he has been very well rewarded by the club, but has done considerably more than some of the other jokers we've had over the last 5yrs. Had a few chats with bim over the yrs and seems a nice guy to boot. | | | |

Leon was a defensive midfielder, not an attacking forward. Can't compare the two. | |

He recouped the relatively small transfer fee we paid him. He consistently provided 5/10 performances with the occasional good game. I think it's safe to say he would have moved on had he ever been offered more money elsewhere.
Averaging 2.8 league goals per season whilst playing in attacking midfield wont attract too much attention from clubs up the food chain.
Scott Sinclair scored more league goals for us in one season than Wayne Routledge has managed for us since 2013. An all time great he certainly is not. | |

Bloody hell, that’s a bit much, I think that’s beyond loathing 🤪 | |

Honestly, Perch’s feelings toward Routledge were illogical and extreme. And he’d pick on him when there were far worse around him who’d get off scot free. | |
