Yeah Pato is frustrating, but we haven’t got many options and I suppose his good work goes a bit unnoticed with his chasing defenders down, making it more difficult for them. They know they are in a game but he lacks the basics of a good striker. His touch is awful.Originally Posted by dembethewarrior
Agree he's not a 90 minute player, and I suppose if you're going to start him and run defenders ragged you need something of equal threat or better coming on when he goes off otherwise you make it easier for the defenders when he does come off
He's just had the cutting edge that's helped the last 2 games.
I don't like Paterson as a striker, and I like Glatzel, but I'm also at this moment not sure Glatzel would be as effective over 90, even though it pains me to watch Paterson cameo up top.
I think it’s part of the tactic at the moment to have him on for 60 minutes wearing defenders down then Glatzel, who’s still getting used to the championship but showing signs of improvement to be fair, coming for last 30.
Tomlin and Bobby seem to have a good understanding too.
