2021/22 Nathan Patterson

[Nymzee]

Won’t get off the bench

Desperate times call for desperate measures. I would consider trying Paterson and Gordon on the right, Godfrey and Gray on the left and Richarlison up front with DCL on the bench. We I'll probably lose against West Ham anyway, but, at least this would give us blistering pace along both flanks, with the full backs overlapping and the wingers cutting inside. If nothing else, it would make West Ham think twice about playing too far up the pitch.

Give the lad a chance ffs.

 

[Drico]

I can't imagine what this lad has done to be excluded from a side/matchday squad that includes the abominal failures that populate our full-back positions. While I have sympathy with a manager saying a young player is "not ready", this simply does not apply when we are playing supposedly more experienced players who are objectively not ready or are demonstrably oven-ready, like Coleman or Kenny or Godfrey. Turkeys in our full-back positions.

Everton concede for fun with the “experienced” players and also offer zero threat going forward... might as well have at least some threat going forward ffs! This lads exclusion is baffling, especially at the expense of 2 absolute rotters in Kenny and Coleman

 

[Nymzee]

Not even on the bench ffs lol

 

[ToffeeTim]

Ridiculous to not make the bench

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Lampard really has it in for this lad.

 

[GoldenToffee]

Get your transfer request in son.

 

[MikeH72]

Totally normal that Isaac Price is on the bench ahead of him, nothing to see here, just needs to learn to defend doesn’t he.

 

[KieronH28]

Got to be injured, if not it's shocking management. Being a Scotland fan I've watched this lad in all our recent internationals and he is a real talent. Kenny is not anywhere near his level and Colemans legs have gone unfortunately.

There’s something a bit funny going on here.

Everyone thought this when Lampard dragged him off at half time despite him being one of, if not our best performers.

Then Lampard said the change was because Patterson wasn't doing as he was told...

 

[Tony’s Carp]

Got to assume that’s a knock. If Coleman is unavailable there’s no way Patterson doesn’t make the bench if fit.

 

[Clarky cat]

Wow. If he’s not injured then Lampard is backing himself in to an absurd corner here.
