Routledge 18:45 - Jan 28 with 2463 views | Mattnme | Last season I thought he'd make a good prem signing for us. I asked why people thought he couldn't cut it in the prem and what's the difference between him and say SWP, Walcott , Lennon and co? The general feeling was his poor control and crossing ability. Now I think Lennon has improved alot but having seen more of the others and in particular SWP play are people of the same opinion? I know he hasn't pulled up any trees but is he really any worse? | | | | |
Routledge on 18:49 - Jan 28 with 2439 views | WeAreQPR12 | I always rated WR massively and the argument I would have is that once Jamie Mackie got injured, WR was a huge improvement in quality and I thought him and Adel were unplayable. The fact we still play Jamie means it was a mistake NOT to resign WR although I don't know how much money is was asking for and maybe he was being a tad greedy but on ability he would walk into our current lineup although against Villa I expect to see jamie dropped and Triaore playing left midfield and shaun on the right. | | | |
Routledge on 00:26 - Jan 29 with 2215 views | Neil_SI | I think the more notable observation is that the wingers in the modern day are simply no where near the level of some of those years before them, although the style has changed somewhat too and this may have impacted on that. None of those players mentioned come close to the likes of Ryan Giggs, Andrei Kanchelskis or an Arjen Robben in back in the day. I'm sure there's many more you could add to that list too. | | | |

Routledge on 02:18 - Jan 29 with 2144 views | SonofNorfolt | Wayne was superb for us last season, and had it not been for the old regime dragging their heels was happy to continue with us again. Mackie or Routledge? No contest, WR every time. | | | |
