I thought Paterson was trimmer than last season if still looking weighty.

NML is just a pure muscle beast.

Hasn't NML been working hard in the gym over the summer, could just be muscle mass

For me he has made himself too big

One thing I noted last time in the premier was how much stronger the players looked I think Paterson have bulked up too much thou One thing bulking up it is another thing keeping you speed at the same time for football

yeah it was particularly obvious with Gunnar last time,who likes to take a little extra time to shield the ball but found himself a bit more exposed.


hopefully hes learned from that this time around

i can understand the need to be stronger in the prem but to me he looked to have conceded some speed in the process??

I thought he looked like a boxer. We shall see in a few weeks if this has had a negative effect on his speed.

I think he's lost acceleration rather than speed he seen to take longer to get to top speed.

Both strong boys. Not everyone looks like Ronaldo.
