2023/24 Nathan Patterson

He's been great since October. A revelation and has me doubting my understanding of a full back;





... that said, expectation was/is rock bottom. The thing with Mykolenko, is I couldn't see anything in his game in the final third - amazing to get 2 goals this season, but he still has 0 assists in 60+ Prem appearances.

I'm slowly being converted, but I won't be fully converted until we see the lad beat a man and whip a cross in for a league goal.

With Calvert-Lewin upfront, we need full backs who can provide. Patterson needs to improve that too, think half the games of Mykolenko but 2 league assists.

He put one on Doms head last game after beating the defender. An in form DCL buries that. its coming.

I think its about doing it for a long period too. Thats one of the things when people talk about Holgate and Godfrey dropping off like they are elsewhere it seems like a drop off if you take it from their highest ever level but that isn't really what you should look at. Anyone can have a good spell of form thats why you if you look at the list of top goal scorers in a random prem season there'll be someone like Grant Holt or DJ Campbell in it but then you'll see the names that are consistently there are the players who are a much higher class. Mykolenko has done well recently but he's a £15m player with national team caps and champions league games so its not a shock that he can play well sometimes its a case of keeping it up now to show he's definitely better than he looked. I'm not seeing much from Patterson to give me hope but he's not hopeless by any measure.
 
Not this season .... Young has played 9 games to many at right back .....

This season Young has started 10 games at right back, we have won 6, drew 1 and lost 3. In total 19 points.

This season Patterson has started 9 times at right back and we have won 2, drew 1 and lost 6. In total 7 points.

For all 23 league starts for Patterson at Everton he has won 4, drew 7 and lost 12. In total 19 points.

Amazing record considering Young has cost us 9 points this season, you would think with him out of the time we would win more???

Some are much more critical, even vicious of him because;

1. He come from Rangers.
2. He's replacing Seamus Coleman.


It's so weird.

The lad has just turned 22.

He's done alright.

Not brilliant, not terrible - just alright. He has time on his side and it's on Dyche/Everton - including our fans to help him progress his game.

Unfortunately we don't have the best environment/circumstances to allow players development time so I'd have Coleman ahead of him when he's fully fit but if we were safe I'd be starting the lad every game. He needs time, and a long run of games in a settled side.
Careful mate, that upsets some very specific posters in here

Stats will not hide Young is slow & crap imo - the cover from our cbs have to help him one good game & he was on the wing we won that one ¡
 
If you read the SJB username backwards it becomes even more obvious that it's a wum account

It does those posts that attempt to come across as earnest but are in fact just totally transparent wummery

Pure rage bait

Let's stop feeding the trolls

Being on this thread over the festive period has felt like spending Christmas with the Kranks

I personally don't rate Young, he is a useful squad player as he can cover a few roles.

But, considering he is slow, crap and has cost us 9 points this season we somehow get better results when he starts instead of Patterson.

weve won 4 games young has started at rb, he never played against west ham, went off injured early against chelsea when it was 0-0 and played on the wing vs newcastle

My mistake over the Newcastle one. I never counted the West Ham game, that was Patterson.

Chelsea game I will count as he started, so its five victories from 9 starts at rightback.
