I'm not moaning at the way he tries to play. He is a capable passer of the ball, I just think we need and can do better.So who do you suggest? We paid what? 800k for him? Who could you get better than Westwood for a few million in our current situation?
Just because Westwood was relatively cheap doesn't mean he is excused from criticism.
Westwood switches off when we don't have the ball. When in possession he isn't a bad passer when keeping it short and ticking over. But when he tries to put long balls they are very hit and miss. His movement is poor and fails to create space for the rest of the team.
Didn't say it made him exempt from criticism, I just asked for better alternatives.
Won't go on about passing again but as for poor movement and not creating space, I'd say he's one of our only players that gives the player on the ball an option. It's players like Gabby and Weimann you should be aiming that at.
