Consistently getting caught out by the referee and giving fouls away even when the ball was nowhere near him.
Allows the opposition to clear the ball when there’s a chance of a second phase opportunity. Frustrating as feck.

You do know this is his first game after a long term injury don't you ?

Free kicks were conceded because of it.
It's a frustrating part of his game. Sometimes when an opposition player has the ball very deep in their own half with nowhere to go (perhaps close to the touchline) if Paterson is the player on him you just know he's going to give him a nudge from behind, concede a freekick and relieve the pressure for the opposition.
His 1st game back for quite a while and he was out on arse after about 55 mins, yet Neil took Whyte off and moved Paterson wide! Think he had a bit of frustrating game, his 1st touch didn’t seem there and the way he leaves his leg in is frustrating. But I’m sure he’ll get up to speed after a few games.
Looked some way from full fitness I thought.
Glad someone else has noticed this, I like Paterson, but it's so pointless.Quote:

there are people in the squad to fill the positions, Warnock just needs to give them a chance Tomlin for one
Paterson is fantastic, he gives it his all no matter where he is played, he seems to win every header he goes for and he just keeps going covering a lot of ground. He does look not fully fit ( his arse did look huge or was it the shorts!!) but we’re a better side with him in it giving his all
His play style, pointed out here, has nothing to do with injury. He will always play this way, he loves the contact.Quote:

I think it's down to his commitment, it's all or nothing, which restults and attracts the contact.
He reminds me of the tough no nonsense players of the 70's and 80', I know he's not for the football purest I just love his commitment and desire
Man City under guardiola do it. Barcelona did also. Foul foul foul.Quote:

It’s absolutely deliberate from him and one of the reasons he always gets in the team I think.
Agree. He seems to have bulked up considerably. Arse like a jersey cowQuote:
