Quote from: kipeye on January 17, 2018, 08:59:45 AMI think Ryan Woods from Brentford would be the ideal replacement for Whelan. Has the same qualities but lots of energy and plays forward. for me-we still need this kind of playmaker in the centre of midfield.I rate Woods, always looks a good player to me.

I just remember Westwood struggling with that side of the game in the top flight during his time with us and just wonder if Woods would as well, even though he is sound technically and good on the ball. I have noticed since we have been in the championship that there seem to be a lot more smaller players playing at that level than there is in the top flight (especially in central midfield).
Apprently we couldn’t even compete with Cardiff for that Liverpool midfielder.

He has had the habit of always standing out when he plays against us.Very much in the Barry Bannon mould but better. Am always amazed how everything goes through him yet we always stand off and let him play

I always said if Westwood was 2" taller and borrowed Gabby's Gold's Gym membership card he'd be world class.
