Paterson proves himself on the wing

Monday 27th November 2017

By Dominic Booth

If Callum Paterson's late Oakwell heroics overshadowed a rather mixed display on the right wing against Barnsley, this time the Scot showed what he his capable of in a more advanced position.

Winning headers and muscling past his marker is just half the story; Paterson is about so much more than physicality. He possesses a rapid football brain and an eye for a pass that make him Warnock's cup of tea.


Perhaps it was Forest's slack defending, with Armand Traore a reluctant defender from left-back, but Paterson's channel saw the visitors forge countless forays into Nottingham territory both first and second half.

With right-back sensation Bruno Manga overlapping, Warnock has found a new right flank combination that, without the influential Mendez-Laing, has been extraordinarily effective.
