Chip quik is great to remove the old chip.
Very expensive though. Specially if you are in Europe, and that is when you find it somewhere.. I love their flux, but it is also very expensive. So I use it only for removing or soldering new chips with more than 32 pins :) or packages that are really small..

If you ripped those traces off you need to replace them with wires... Possible but not easy.

I did the same thing, but with "Chip Quik" I had no problem removing the old chip.
Use a lot of good flux will helps a lot.
I purchase a good solder station too, that I could control the heat and the tip size.
