@owlstalk Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 "Paterson has been a big shining light here in the two games that we have played. He has been outstanding for us and he will have a big, big part to play over the next few months." "He has got so many strings to his bow," he said, "If we get it all fixed an identity to the team which takes longer than two weeks to do, I’d love to see Callum arriving in the box late.

I think he could get you 10 to 15 goals from midfield and that's something that every club in this league would love to have. 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shetland Owl Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Someone who can score goals from midfield would be an added bonus, just need the forwards to start scoring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HillsboroughOwlNI Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 He looks very different to the Paterson we see on the pitch right now?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorfolkNChance Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 He’s aged about 10 years in the 2-3 months he’s been here. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not fit enough to be arriving late in the box, then having to do his midfield role when teams break on us. We would be left very exposed.

Guest wilyfox Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 It’s possible. He did it at Cardiff playing off Zohore. Maybe we need that powerhouse centre-forward to help other pieces fall into place. At Stoke had Fuller, Jerome, and Jones. That is the type he needs to source for us to make the team function better.

I would settle for 15 home goals in a season..... which is a marked improvement on the last 12 months Actually I wouldn't, I want to see a lot more.....

cowl Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 From what I saw of him against Swansea I could actually see this. Well, maybe 7 or 8 goals anyway—but that alone would be fantastic. In any case, he looks a much better prospect in midfield than up top. Yes, his ability in the air is useful up there, but otherwise his game seems to lack far more there than it possesses when he plays there. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prowl Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 He's a decent player and works hard but we have been trying to use him like we did Fletcher and he's not up to it. If the manager can find a position that suits him we might see the best of him. We know Pulis likes Westwood, Luongo, Bannan and Paterson from his praise for them. That's 4/11ths of the side sorted. I wonder who else he likes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc_Degryse Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 I think the key takeaway here is that Tony sees him as a MIDFIELDER and not a STRIKER which was what Monk tried to pass him off as when he was signed! In effect then with Marriot going back to Derby the situation is no different to where we were at 2-3 months ago squadwise, as Rhodes is still the only recognised striker on the books (and that's being generous given his track record). I mean really, how did Monk expect we would win enough games with no attack? 0-0 our way to safety? Awful squad building! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
