The 2 do normally go hand-in-hand

….sad that a specific poster is returning to this thread with his own personal vendetta after being quiet for so long during Pattersons good form. Strange we rarely see him posting in the Gordon thread.
From my own perspective, it’s never a question of Patterson v Coleman. I think we’re well served in the RB position and posters are right to voice concerns about our issues elsewhere in the pitch. As far as either FB is concerned, forming a partnership with the player ahead of you is vital for the team. It’s basic, the pairing know each other’s game and blend together to good effect down their flank.
Its very difficult to form partnerships with players like Gordon & Grey because they have their own agenda when in possession. Both are complicated, both wanting to look good but leaving teammates unaware of what they’re going to do.
Our back four is fine when set, but when we lose possession upfield we are vulnerable. United exposed us when Gueye was dispossessed and Leicester did yesterday with Doucoure. its not the fault of full backs if we have players who can’t look after the ball in key areas.
Patterson & Coleman are fine, concentrate your thoughts on the real problem areas.

Give him a chance on Tuesday, and if he performs well, then he keeps the shirt for Saturday.

They really need to rename this thread Nathan Patterson and Davek’s blatantly biased agenda against him. 50% of this thread is Davek.

He's had some minutes so could be worth putting in the team Tuesday. Think he didn't improve us defensively yesterday when he came on but I do think he's actually got a lot of potential.

Assuming that goal was all his fault right? While he was having to mark 2 players
Why is Davies taking corners, we are so brain dead and clueless as a team. Bring some kids in Frank for Christ said I'm already resigned to us not scoring..
Only one with an ounce of passion.
Only player who is direct & has speed..,.
Miles and miles ahead of everyone else.
