ARE WE TRYING TO GET A STRIKER BECAUSE OF PATERSON?

We obviously need a defender but since we are after a striker this means Paterson can go back to right back with Manga an Bamba filling out the central areas

Patterson is a terrible defender. Warnock has already said this. Manga and peltier would be played at right back before Patterson

If Patterson is such a poor defender why in gods name did Warnock sign him as a fuu back

Played right wing back the other day. Pretty well I thought.

There can’t be anyone who says that Paterson was anything other than a bargain at 400k.

Either playing at RB or RWB otherwise the bench

No one should say anything about Paterson at right back until they’ve seen him play there, I’ve watched Paterson play right back for Scotland 3 or 4 times and gets ruined every time, wingers too sharp for him, he’s too clumsy, got hooked nearly every game, gives away fouls constantly, you can’t have that with our set piece defending, especially with some of the premier league players with there set pieces and great crossing. Playing him at right wing back is completely different to right back, right wing back would work, right back wouldn’t

No idea. Glad he did though, he was our top scorer last season!
