Good , composed CM players are harder to find than RB’s
Most RB,LB etc where cm, at or wingers in their youth that couldn’t make the step up and changed position.
If we have a naturally talented CM then we should be playing him there.
I also agree that Patterson is ok at RB … he needs to...
He has that uncoachable ability to look like he has an extra half a second on the ball.
Midfield is where he should be playing as he has a real potential to grow there.
Reminds me a bit of Michael Carrick tbh
He has quality about him, he has a good football brain , awareness, composure and very good basic skills. He could play anywhere and do ok, I’d rather see him in cm as his passing is something we lack massively in the middle
Onanna can play some good passes , but that’s pretty common in prem midfielders tbh.
The amount of times we find ourselves overloaded while defending is because our midfielders are very bad in possession.
This has a knock on effect when setting tactics as you cannot adopt an ac at king style...
He’s an actual footballer , like , a real one , that can pass the ball to players that wear the same clothes as he does, unlike douc, gana , iwobi , gray and onnana
