Gordon Strachan keen on taking QPR winger Wayne Routledge to Middlesbrough

[baz]

His recent form has been woeful and he was again last night, yet Buzacky scores one sets up the other gets all the stick

[qprjames]

Cardiff also want Routledge, but think he is going nowhere

Cardiff dont have a penny

I go on what I see and I think he has the touch of a rapist at times, Buzsaky has 8 goals this season but I would still drop him. Routledge for me got found out against Boro at home when he came up against 2 premier league full backs. He tried every trick in the book including swapping wings but they just sat off him and let his first touch fall and away and then closed him down quickly. Its the reason he is in the CCC despite 2 shots at the PL, he is a kick and rush player, a one trick pony if you must who more often than not goes missing in games. If he can't beat a player with pace then there is fairly little option for him and his crossing is pretty hit and miss.

So I don't think your smart #### comment does contradict my point, I'm not saying Routledge is a bad player, I'm just saying he is not a great player and if rumours are to be believed that this club needs to start selling its players to bring in necessary funds then he is one of the few players we have who would command a fee over a million.

I'd rather he wasn't sold and we kept hold off him but all I'm saying is I won't be throwing my toys out of the pram like some on here would if he does go. Personally I'd sooner sell Routledge if it meant we could buy Taarabt and stick him on the right side of midfield.

pot and kettle spring to mind.

we drop routledge and buz, so thats two players with a combined 14 goals and 14 assists between them out of the side.

play taraabt, 4 goals and 1 assist in return for his 67 shots.

who else will provide the chances? who is going to score the goals other than simpson?

all players have spells when they dont play at their best. thats when you stick with them and they play themsleves back into form. dropping them doesnt help.

He scored a penalty and took a free kick, he has done **** all from open play since October and even then he wasn't looking that sharp.

[BuzsakyIsGod]

I'm sorry but at the start of the season Routledge was flying. Now he has been utter awful with the rest of them. We should restart the whole squad

[vblockranger]

if football was like Scrabble id throw them all back in the bag and pick out a new 11 ....football should be like scrabble!

W12 I agree with alot that you are saying but to be fair you can't keep boosting up Tarrabt who's stats which lets face it are facts, don't look good.
Tarrabt has skill but he is so far away from being the player he should be it is untrue. Tarrabt is talked upon like he is superman and he certainly isn't. Buzz does need to be dropped but for me Tarrabt isn't going to change much.

need a wide player who actually does the defensive side of the game

[shania]

I have a feeling that he has to add some tactical skills to his repertoire.For now He seems to have been found out.

If Routledge was to go,I wouldn't attend another game this season,I'm hacked of enough as it is!

[sirpiechucker]

If he has got disires to play at a higher level again then he'll leave.

[QPR1234]

i got a funny feeling routledge wont want to stick about as long as this all keeps up.

he is a good player but we are so unbalanced he is sorta playing for himself.

[hhrangers]

Cardiff dont have a penny

yet they seem to sign better players than us

[Neil]

Was never convinced by Routledge,earlier in season he was changing my mindset but I aint going to fret if we do sell him.
