Patterson’s kicking


It's definitely a weakness in his game at the minute like especially when we piss about with it between him and the defenders for him to just hoof it out of play or upto no one anyway. He's still class when it matters though
 
I cannot homestly believe anyone is criticising Patto after tonight’s performance.

Thought he dealt well with the few crosses Leeds put in, made a couple of saves look easy and dealt with some pretty serious Leeds high pressing in a more reassured way that some of our defenders

Mind the Leeds keeper also had a good game - first time this season I’ve seen an opposition keeper as good as Patto

Just hope we can hang on to him for a few seasons to come
 
A good young goalkeeper but needs to improve this areas of his game massively. Been in the team roughly 3 seasons now and no improvement in his kicking. The goalkeeping coaches should be really working with him on this. Kicked it straight out 3 times tonight. Great win by the way. Massive difference having a clever and experienced player like Pritchard in there
Have to agree. Also would like to see him come off his line a bit more at corners.
Still a great prospect for us.
 
Bloody hell, I hope they're alright :eek:
They're in safe hands Blandy lad 😎
His distribution is pretty terrible and wasn't great tonight. seems to be no signs of improving it lately which is a very minor worry. Best keeper at the club for though and I think he can be a good premier league keeper if he can work on it
It isn't though..it's massively over exaggerated how bad it is. Can it be improved on? Yes of course but it isn't terrible

One of the kicks towards the end of the game that went straight out was good. It's a bit like a rugby kick, gets the ball up other end, they have to then start with a throw which hopefully we can make difficult to play out, rather than a kick which a defender can potentially head 30 yrds back towards our goal. And tbf, if his long kicks is the issue we're seeing, i'll take it
 
I honestly don't know why anybody responds to this mag kernt.
Look at every one of his threads: he lights the touch paper then just sits back. He NEVER gets involved in or responds to any post, after his incendiary opening gambits.

Don't feed the troll. Just starve him of the attention he craves. I know... I know... I've responded but not to him. To the rest of you.

Time and again, moments after a win there's a negative post from this knacker.
 
Dunno what game some people are watching, his distribution was noticeably poor last night and for a team that focuses on maintaining position it's glaringly obvious that the keeper isn't quite at the level of the rest of the team in that respect. His two main weaknesses are distribution and not coming off his line enough, not sure there's anything wrong with saying that while also saying he's generally doing a decent job given his age and experience.
