So I see we've moved from "he's been given a chance" to "he's rightfully not been given a chance because he appears error prone" (even though he's not any more error prone than any other of or pensioners and non-right back options, or even less realistically).
We don't deserve young players at all and I hope for all of your sake we don't replace Coleman and bring in Johnny Evans to replace Branthwaite too just so you remain happy. x
….its nothing to do with being young or old, its about being good or bad.
Branthwaite is younger and holds down his place. Unfortunately in our predicament we’ve not been able to afford an effective RB so have had to do with converted CBs or old blokes on Bosmans.
Watch games back where Patterson plays and see how many crosses come in from his side. His positioning sense is poor, he’s either rushing at his winger making him easy to get past or standing way off. He makes me nervous when he plays, I’m sure Dyche and the coaches feel exactly the same.
As is often the case with our club, unless he can turn things around, he just looks another poor piece of business. Young players still have to be good enough.
