Player Suggestion Wayne Routledge

[Foxy]

I don't understand why this kid always gets bigged up on Blades forums.

I've always wondered the same too, whenever i've seen him i've thought people have over-rated him.

 

[Greasy Chip Butty]

Gone to Cardiff now.

 

[Bladesman]

Played well for Cardiff today.

Oh well nevermind.

Going to be released by Swansea in January could be a decent signing for us

 

[LJBlade]

No idea how good he is any more but my first thoughts are if Swansea are releasing him why would he be good enough for us?

He’s also 34 next month

Winger

 

[Carlton Blade]

He could be a low cost, low risk 4 month contract.

Not the worst idea I've heard. Wouldn't expect a lot but he could win us a game

 

[mattbianco1]

Didn't he score for Swansea yesterday?

 

[Mouth of the South]

As a right winger, how would he fit into Utd's set-up? Please don't suggest a change of formation as CW only reverts to 4-4-2 when absolutely needed in games and usually to shore-up for the last few mins.

 

[brownie4583]

Maybe play in the Duffy role or as a striker.

 

[brownie4583]

Yeah

 

[Mouth of the South]

Maybe play in the Duffy role or as a striker.

Is he able to do that? I've only ever seen him play RW.

 

[itsinyerblood]

When it comes to replacing Duffy, I think we need the equivalent of a Championship level Modric. It's going to be hard to find someone to replace Duffy, he's been outstanding for us.

 

[S64 Blade]

I can't see where he would play for us and given he'd still want a decent wage, would rather that money is used on a long term asset to the club.
