Patto

Like another poster who loves having a go at our local players.

We were set up wrong with the wrong players, we strolled around the pitch. Plymouth missed two easy chances and generally (apart from.Hume and Neil) the outfield players were useless.

But yes it's all Patterson's fault..

But I guess if you have an agenda, nothing wrong with biased nitpicking. Yes his distribution is average, it's not awful. His shot stopping etc is way above average l, which is why premier clubs are sniffing around.

You honestly believe people enjoy pointing out faults of local players?
Shake yourself
 
I assume this is because if the second d goal where he stayed on his line. Is there a thread naming the defenders who did fuck all to deal with the ball in the box? Or is it easier to blame the keeper?
 
I think he's crap and have for a long time. However, one point that might be worth making, if it hasn't been already - Most keepers stay on their line much more now, probably not as religiously as Patto, but much more than the old days. I think this is more than likely an instruction based on data and probability. What I mean is that data has probably shown that more goals are conceded by a keeper that comes for the ball than one that stays at home. If the keeper comes, flaps and misses 3 times out of 10, it leaves the goal very vulnerable for those 3 times. Whereas one that stays on his line will still be on his line and available to make a save.
