2021/22 Nathan Patterson

[kiss the crest]

Has to start on Thursday, that is very clear after today

So Benitez gave the go ahead for them to be signed.

No mate. Apparently scouting them means you’ve signed them.

 

[Blue Parkender]

Not counting this lad we have the worst fullbacks In the Prem, and remember this kid could not get into Rangers team. We were robbed of £13m.

Patterson and Mykolenko were Brands targets by all accounts.

Yes but he wasn't here and none of his recruitment team were when they actually signed. It's been well documented that Benitez had full control over who came and went in the summer and Jan. Largely I think it was the only stuff he did right.

It will not have been on Everton's to-do list to sell Digne in January, for example, until Benitez and the player fell out, which meant Mykolenko wouldn't have been needed. But it will have helped wage wise with FFP, obviously.

While having left the club. Impressive work from Marcel.

Well I'm not sure on that. He could get given a go and be really good. It's far too early to judge. But that's just the thing. He's 20, got next to no experience and we signed him for a position that needed a first-choice, PL-ready starter 2 years ago.

It was strange business to say the least. But I just dont like the criticism of this kid when the defenders who are playing are letting down the fans every week. I'm fed up with them, they are an embarrassment to the shirt.

The 'criticism' is that the manager has made an assessment.

Well my assessment of the defence who played today, and over the course of the season, is they are not fit to wear the shirt. Its a pity they couldn't be assessed to the same level as a kid making his way in the game.

There was a good reason why he couldn't get a regular game at Rangers and it wasn't due to his ability.

 

[MACCA75]

I’m not sure he’s going to throw him in against St Maximin tbh

 

[davek]

Getting dragged off at half time against Boreham Wood when he was our best player says to me that he is not going to get any game time under Lampard.

lol

Find me some more quotes from Coleman’s swashbuckling performance against Leeds a month ago Dave.

At least he's capapble of one.

Pinning your hopes on some SPL sub who the manager has been alarmed at in training.

Unreal.


Tbf, if he played him as an out and out winger it'd make more sense. But the lad is about as useful as a chocolate fire-guard in any back line.

That’s a bit overboard mate, He’s played a decent level at international level. He is on an upward trajectory, it’s clear Coleman is on his last legs and it’s horrible to see mate.

...not as a defender mate. He's been played high up the pitch and out wide for Scotland.

Hand him a game playing wide right getting balls in the box like he does for his country and it *might* be worth a gamble.

But defence?

Nah. He's appalling from the games I've watched ...and that must be being replicated at FF for him not to be trusted by Lampard.
