useless Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Was it not Sherwood who said the reason he's so underrated is because he's one step ahead of the cameraman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villan_of_oz Posted July 5, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted July 5, 2016 Less than 2 years ago his form was very good, he played solidly for Lambert and was one of our better players. We have always made fun of him because we fans have the mentality of a big club.... the thing is we arent a big club anymore. We are in the championship and Westwood will make a very good player in the championship. Keep him, get promoted and a year from now we can argue if he is good enough for the premier league.

Westwood would fit nicely into a side that had Benteke, Delph and some other quality..... westwood is one of the last people id blame.

He was very poor in that side, our midfield was still crap and Delph really wasnt that much better. Benteke shielded a lot of the weaknesses in that squad under Lambert 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villafan306 Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 This is a tough call. £6m is a lot of money for a player like Westwood and is at the higher end of what we can realistically demand. That being said, I could see him being a very solid midfielder in the Championship. I guess a lot comes down to what RDM has seen of him and what system he wants to play. If Gana is going then I'd prefer to keep Westwood to play alongside Gardner/Tish (if he signs) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sir_gary_cahill Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 I think he's receiving a lot of hatred in this thread for some unknown reason, he's still an excellent player in my opinion, he makes us tick. I think he can still improve at this football club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he stays, it would be because RDM thinks he can do something with. If he goes I do hope he does well. Seems to have a good attitude and yes sometimes his performances were not good enough, but they were way, way better than most here and not a dick. For that reason alone he is/was one of the better players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
