Thought he was getting rinsed today and was glad to see Patterson come on. But then I felt Patterson was even more exposed. Think Willian was just on it today and would clearly be a handful for anyone.

Willian made our lads look like chumps oot there.

Shame we didnt consider a short term deal for the boy.

Their number 10 Cairney left Patterson for dead. Just stepped inside him and sent Patterson for a cup of tea.
 

Felt sorry for him, Gordon just wasn’t tracking and he got left 2 on 1 constantly, as did Paterson when he came on.

One point he managed to block a cross out for a corner when Gordon was just jogging back leaving Seamus 2 on 1, again. Thought he would have gone mad at Gordon for such lazy tracking back but didn’t say a word to him. Gordon needed a bollocking yesterday, would have been furious if I was playing fullback and he was the winger playing in front of me!
 
….very tough for any RB against Willian & Robinson, especially with little or no support from Gordon.

As a Patterson fan, I was a little concerned he tucked inside too much when he came on & wasn’t always in a position to cut crosses out. Regardless, I imagine Patterson will now come back in & hopefully that improves us a little.

Big test next week against a proper speedster.
 

Gordon is a liability defensively, which makes it tricky for the right back. Personally I'd get shut of Gordon in January if the fee that's being talked about is true. If not, then he either needs to only play in home games against lower opposition or learn how to focus on the defensive side of his game. The number of times he loses a battle and the ball goes to the keeper, who just throws it to the left back in acres of space. We need a hard working right winger and then we'll see the best of Patterson.
