2023/24 Nathan Patterson

[Daniel Gardner]

Pickford
Mykolenko
Keane
McNeil
Harrison
Onana
DCL
All of the above were abysmal today.

Garner
Patterson
Tarkowski
We're poor

Only Branthwaite looked half decent.

Not sure why one player is singled out ( I am really ) yet 7 other players were far worse than him including our opposite Full back who was dreadful today.

Harsh on mykolenko, thought he was the best of a very bad bunch, thought Tarkowski was abysmal as well, probably his worst game for us.

2 years into his mammoth contract after commanding a hefty fee and people are comparing him to a raw kid who we took a £60k punt on from Ireland.

You seem obsessed with money
28k pw mate Mammoth contract ?

Youngs on 40k pw btw.

Me too mate, thought he played great again.

Our most improved player this season is Myko , and I like him a lot.

He was dreadful today.

Like most btw.

To be fair to Young who I think is past it and we need to buy a new right back. The results are better when he starts at right back compared to Patterson.

Patterson has started 9 games in the league this season and we have lost 6 , Drew 1 and won 2.

I thought Nathan Patterson (like most of our players) had a poor game today. Sadly, it was pretty much a poor team performance all around, so a bit unfair to single out any one player for criticism/blame.

 

[HowardsWay]

There's a player in him but he needs to learn quickly.

Maybe the team weren't good enough in them games.
Young has cost us many points this season.

Wage and transfer fee are two of the most common metrics to measure expectations of footballer players.

 

[Toffeepot]

He should be getting the game time here. He’s been fine in the games he’s played and is hardly chucking them in his own net Keane-style. No player doesn’t make mistakes, but you aren’t binning Tarkowski for his today, or Pickford for his against City. I don’t know why everyone acts like his are somehow career-defining or terminal.

The Three Amoebas are not 'everyone'

Don’t know if you remember Coleman coming through mate, he was equally as raw but you could see the tools, like you can with Nathan.

Coleman went out on loan to Blackpool then, just like Nathan needs to. Coleman came back and made a starting spot for himself in the team the following year.

I watched more of our games pre that period and more again later in Coleman's heyday but didn't really see too much of him coming through

I've seen it mentioned on the forum etc before though aye

I'm not disagreeing that a loan may work to both the team's and Nathan's benefit (assuming it worked out well with the team that he went to)

I'm more saying that it seems unrealistic to loan him out given the cover we have in that position

If we signed someone like Juranovic in January then I could definitely see the logic of a loan for Patterson

Young has cost us many points this season.

But as a team with Young as rightback we get better results.

The results prove that unfortunately.

Not sure having Colman and Young as cover is that much different to having Hibbert and Neville when Coleman went out mate.

Luckily Luton lost today too but given the way things are panning out I'd want all the options available to me if I were Dyche

Correlation is not causation as they say. There are a lot of factors that influence results, which you are completely not taking into account such as the team we are playing, the formation used, subs etc.

For example I could point to the Newcastle game where Patterson came on as a sub at 0-0, and then we scored 3 goals and won. I am not going to attribute the win and scoring of all 3 goals to Patterson (though I’ve no doubt plenty would do if they could use it against him and even though he did assist Beto for the 3rd) but you see how easily you can make a link between things that aren’t directly related?.

Results are a team game. No one player directly is responsible for them.
