Traore is a decent player. Should be excellent in the championship if he is up for it. One of our longest serving players so it is a keep for me.
No lost Trarore to our club. Hes been overall very disappointing and not the sort of player we need over 46 games in the championship. As for Granero I agree another total lightweight who again will not fancy games like Burnley and Middlesboro away on a cold winter night. You can also throw in a few more but at least Harry is trying to bring a few players who will take up the challenge. I do wish he could handle Adel differently as I think he can still be a big player next season. On his day he is total class.
Totally agree, would rather see a Richard Dunne type player getting stuck in than mamby pamby types like Granero, Park, Bosingwa, Traore etc. And I really hope that Harry & Adel can patch up their differences, because he can be a match winner, and we will need his potential impact this tough NPC season. We need more of this stuff from him - a playmaker & goalscorer, both of which we are sadly lacking right now. Routledge was no slouch scoring goals either.

I always thought signing Traore immediately after Arsenal had been stuffed 8-2 at Man U was not a particularly wise move...
I will never tire of watching that goal. Westwood's hesitation shows what a fantastic pass that was, and what a magnificent finish from Routledge. Adel's goal in this match was equally magnificent.
What Routledges' goal showed is that we had players running from deep beyond the front players and that sadly is something that hasn't happened for the last 2 seasons......we need our midfielders to get running into those positions and then the goals will come and you are not reliant on the likes of BZ & AJ to score.......
