Good at running… bad at kicking a football

Not bad - just uninspiring.

 

[Deulofeumygod]

Good to see him run with the ball again

I'm delighted to see Godfrey back in the mix. Always felt there was an asset going to waste there

 

[ToffeeScot]

He was the only player to come out of the game on our side with any credit.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

I'll be honest - think he's done alright since coming back in under Dyche. Certainly fulfils a 'rotation' role quite well as things currently stand.

 

[JimmyK]

Obviously he's not the best using the ball but his ability to run forwards with the ball is actually about as effective as an attacking option as anything Patterson has shown.

 

[BlueCelt1878]

Provides much needed pace in the team. More of a stopper than a creator but good to see him in the team. Glad we didn’t let him go in January. Would like to see him grow in confidence.

 

[Rita_Poon]

Meant Young wasn't RB, recovery pace, improving match sharpness, no major mess up, a few positives there, and threw himself at a diving header chance in a dangerous moment. Cant fault his commitment. Good to see him back, hope he progresses.

No fault on Godfrey who I thought looked solid but sorry indictment on Dyche playing a “centre back” at fullback against Palace at home. Paterson should have played, we badly needed some attacking impetus supporting Young who has no legs.

Patterson doesn't give us attacking impetus though it seems like people assume he must be good going forward because he isn't good defensively but he's not really like I said before Godfrey running forward at pace with the ball last night offered about as much as Patterson does in an attacking sense just in a different way.

Paterson is good going forward and far better on the ball than Godfrey - think he’s got two assists in the league from little league game time. Godfrey looked like a centre back going forward last night, albeit a quick centre back. Fullback was one of the key areas for us to attack last night and playing a centre back there was absolutely the epitome of cowardice.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

I like him.

We're doing what we do, and not giving players the best platform to develop.

We're asking him to fill in, and fair play - he never hides. Always gives it everything.

But he's not a full back.

I thought his passing was a lot better than most, at least he passes forward and mixes it up.

Comparing him to other players in our team means nothing .. as they’re all shocking bar bramthwaite, garner and Onanna .

Compare him to other “average” teams players and he is championship standard
