2024/25 Nathan Patterson

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

It's not about whether he's the "real deal", it's about the undue criticism he gets for merely breathing. He played well today, but because he made one mistake against one of the best players in the world, any praise is caveated. Do I think he's a starting player for Everton? Most likely not. Did he choose his transfer fee? Did he choose to get assaulted by his manager?

@Eggs , try having a conversation about it? I'm not Zatara, you don't need to play the boomer emoji game with me.

….sadly, that’s a moot point and Young is not the benchmark to be judging him by.

The reality is Coleman, Young, Godfrey, O’Brien and even Garner have been selected ahead of Patterson yet posters criticise those who have doubts about him. If he was the real deal, he’d be in this Everton team, that’s the reality.

The reality is he played well today when osp Young came on they they got joy down the left side
Too slow past it is our Ashley

….if posters have a different opinion to you it doesn’t mean they’re stupid or prejudiced, it doesn’t even mean they’re necessarily wrong. Thing is, Dyche and now Moyes rarely pick him, I don’t think it’s because they’re prejudiced or stupid.

I’m sure those of us who see how much he’s lacking want him to be good, I know I do but I judge on what I see.

Maybe it’s because he lacks application? You seem to suggest that a lot for other players…

If he was assaulted, did he report it to the police? If he thought it wasn't serious enough to involve the police, did he lodge a grievance after being assaulted by a superior in the workplace?

There were a few moments where he looked in two minds about how to challenge for the ball, but don’t blame him given he was on the wrong side.

Thought he played well.

Pipe down Mr Young Snr.

You've cast your opinion well and truly on Patterson, whereas Eggs is actually capable of having a conversation. You voted MOTM for Young vs Liverpool after he played for 60 seconds and have berated this player for no reason at all constantly. So yeah, have a seat.

I post fair and balanced assessments of his performances, I don't berate him for no reason. That's a really silly thing for you to think.

 

[Groucho]

Did well

These are fair and balanced assessments, posted when he wasn't even playing:

Retire.

Sulking because he didn't get a move in the transfer window apparently.

Any update on the wage thief?

If you were fair and balanced you'd be posting these in the Coleman thread.

 

[blulouie]

Kept 2 very good wing players very quiet today.
Played very well.

You've picked out my constructively critical posts about him without quoting the countless posts I've praised and encouraged him.

Find me one that doesn't have a caveat or isn't sarcastic.
