Not likely he’s going to get ahead of hickey anymore unless he’s injured. Hickey is miles ahead in terms of development/ability/experience all what we’re suffering from Patterson having a lack of. Both the same age think hickey might even be younger by a few months.
You are very, very bad at judging players and their development.
Hickey got his ass handed to him tonight .
Every attack down his side he was miles off it . Looked completely out of his depth.
Rushford & Co will never have an easier game.
He looked good for Bologna on the rare occasions i saw him.
I didnt watch the game last night but anyone with pace or direct play goes straight past him. Whether its Dobbin or Danjuma i think we have a chance against brentford in that area.
Garner getting experience at RB for the U21s should’ve seen as good for a future as a 6 for us where he would be expected to drop in there when the full back is caught up the pitch. Preferably in a double pivot with Onana in the future.
For the U21s it was the opposite with him coming into the 6 position to make an extra man rather than bombing on like a proper FB.
Still don’t think playing Garner at RB is the best use of him but then I rate Patterson more than you brother.
Could have Garner and Onana as a double pivot. For me, Patterson just needs to be unleashed with a proper right side partner and no move of the negative Dyche 'making up a 3rd centre back' tactics.
