He's about 34
It's like when I was in school playing for the U13's and the other team had a fella with a full beard playing. Something doesn't quite add upOriginally Posted by simonp_ccfc
Looks like someone's dad joined in a kickabout with the kids after coming in from an afternoon in 'spoons! Young player of the season my arse!It's like when I was in school playing for the U13's and the other team had a fella with a full beard playing. Something doesn't quite add up
Having said that I like him - weird player and nowhere near prem class but that won't matter next season.
All of this written as if you've completely forgotten that Pato was the first opposing player to score at Anfield for yonks a few months back.
Touche!All of this written as if you've completely forgotten that Pato was the first opposing player to score at Anfield for yonks a few months back.
He's a trier and seems to know here the net is, but he's clearly technically lacking, I've doubts over his ability to stay fit and he goes to ground quicker than your mum on a see-saw.
Says a lot for our youth system🤪
Says more about the pathway from youth system to senior side. We might have a brilliant youth system not being trusted for whatever reason.
Was his birth cert nicked from his car too?
I Love him
I don't recall seeing comments about exactly how Paterson was injured when playing for Scotland, so here goes.......
He was selected as the main Scottish striker (in the grand tradition of Kenny Dalglish, Dennis Law and Joe Jordan) and typically was trying his darndest to impress and score. There was a floated cross that was behind him, but he corkscrewed his body to head the ball in a creditable attempt to score (which the keeper saved with difficulty). In this contorted state, he landed awkwardly and sustained a nasty injury. This was typical of the all-action player who has endeared himself to fans and whose gutsy performances have been sadly missed recently.
He must be an integral part of next season but definitely not as a striker.
He could hold a midfield place and still be a danger at dead ball situations.
Along with a ACUMA would bring some steel into our midfield. Falls should not be in the first 11.
He's 25 in a few months! But then I guess that's young by the current squad's standards.
It's a bit patronising as well. It's the type of award that should be given to a player who is making the break through, not an established pro, there has to be some kind of cut off point.
Embarrassing is the word I'd use. Young Player Of The Year and already pushing 25!
It must be a bit embarrassing for the event organisers. The youngest first team squad member is 24.
It's a Cardiff City thing, Tom Heaton was 25 when he was our "young" Player of the Year in 10/11.
Theoretically, Patterson could win it for the next three seasons if there's nobody younger than him or better than him
Rhys Healey is 25 later this year but still seen as a “youngster” trying to make the grade.
up until recently fans would say the same about Ralls and Zohore.
Would they?
Ralls has been a fixture in the team for several seasons and I don’t think I’ve ever heard Zohore described as that tbh.
Yup, i can recall people portraying Ralls as a young prospect not so long ago.
He's about 2 months older than PFA Young Player of the Year Raheem Sterling
That's ridiculous. Both of these guys made their competitive first team debuts seven years ago!
Sterling's got nearly 50 England caps and has been to two world cups
