I'm not sure he's a centre-forward (as in target man) though; I think he'd be better playing off a centre-forward (as in the striker role). I think he'd get even more goals if he didn't have the responsibility of holding up the ball. 6 minutes ago, McRightSide said: It’s an interesting one. I honestly don’t know what he is. His finishing is actually pretty good - I’d imagine his conversion rate is very high...but he doesn’t really seem to get nor many chances I don’t see the energy arriving late into the box that Pulis used to mention, to me he looks like someone who needs to be right in position for when the ball arrives Defensively he looks awful - so I don’t see him playing deeper, even when he’s been in a CM role he’s been found out. I can’t believe he was ever a defensive player That probably leaves him as the primary forward, but then you have to surround him with goals and pace. That then leads me to question whether he or Nuhiu would be more effective in that ‘focal point surrounded by goals and pace role’ - and I’m not convinced he’s more effective than Nuhiu would have been in that role. It’s an interesting one, because he’s a good, effective player So, if I relate my post to yours, in my opinion, Paterson would be the striker playing off Nuhiu who would play as centre-forward.

That would be an abysmal strike force It would be Paterson or Nuhiu I think he would work best in a 3 with Kachunga and Windass supporting Westwood Lees. Dunkley. Hutchinson. Harris. Luongo. Bannan. Reach. Windass. Kachunga. Paterson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes already got 5 more goals than the big man. Whilst playing in a bottom three side. Nuhiu is playing for a team that is supposed to walk the league and not a great league either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevthelodgemoorowl Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 His Throng Low is a very potent weapon and to score without hitting the back of the net is pure genius. Long may it continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuhiu scored 6 goals and achieved 4 assists in 14 league starts last season Paterson has scored 5 goals and achieved 1 assist in 19 league starts this season What’s your point?

That right now Nuhiu has 0 goals and Paterson has 5. Are we operating in a last season for one player, and this season for another, world? If so can we just have the Jordan Rhodes from six years ago instead of the one from this year? Edited February 5, 2021 by Daizan10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIPPS_S.W.F.C Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 His best position by far is shi tting up the 2 CB's n having a go at the keeper right in their faces up close n personal..... UTO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 (edited) One of the funniest goals I’ve seen. Paterson’s trickle of a shot, goalkeeper somehow missing it. Beautiful. Edited February 5, 2021 by WalthamOwl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theowlsman Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 I rated Paterson even before he joined us, sharing his goals video whilst at Hearts. On that video he just kept on scoring for about 30 mins solid and with some crackers from 40 yards too. Much underrated player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CircleSeven Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 I was baffled by him for quite a while but the Derby goal made me a ‘Paterholoc’ just something about the way he is makes me smile. He should not have been able to get to that header against Derby but it’s like no one has ever told him the things you should and shouldn’t do on a football field so he just makes it up! Must be a horror play against Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edinburghowl Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 I love the guy, pure commitment and it helps him being a fellow Hearts man like me. I’ve been watching Paterson at games since he was 17 at Hearts, and I remember in his first pre-season being impressed with his performances but also his physique. I’m delighted he is now at Wednesday my English team. The first time I saw him was at Rotherham’s New York Stadium, Hearts were the first away team to win a game at Rotherham’s new ground. Paterson played really well, he competed physically as well as on the deck, and at that age that was impressive seeing him bully opposition players. He nearly scored right at the beginning of the game. I could tell he would be a handful later in his career and go on to have a good career and he’s doing that and more at Wednesday now. I can’t understand some of the stick that he has got at Wednesday, Callum will be our top scorer this season, he has done it and scored goals at a higher level than we are currently at, and yes he might not be the most skilful footballer to watch, but he competes, he has desire and a will to win, he is positive, he looks like he enjoys playing, and he scores goals. Callum will be a key player for us for the remainder of the season. Mon Dr Funk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
