Alex Pattison 3 year deal

Maybe but I just feel the position, pulling out to the left, saw him isolated and he doesn't have the legs to cover the ground quick enough.

 

Thanks, much appreciated.

 

Ok signing better than Gillead but nothing to
Write home about.

 

I think he's played in a variety of different midfield positions (and shapes), or at least that's my understanding - I think he plays wide right in a 4-4-2, or can play central attacking midfield, or where you describe, left-central midfield.

I'm only guessing, but I think he's a more natural fit as a right sided attacking midfielder.

We'll find out soon enough I guess

 

Easy big man easy.

 

Very happy with this signing, our midfield now looks far better.

I think it was in the FA cup game against us when he absolutely ran the show and made Smallwood and Gilliead look more static that they have all season.

Pace and mobility in the centre, now for the wide areas please.

 

Product of Middlesbrough academy.

Gent putting McCalls iPad to good use.

Excellent.

 

Yer, he can't play on either side of a diamond. He doesn't look to have the pace any more.

 

I don’t give a damm about what system they play as long as it works

 

It’s quite a conundrum. I can see 352 moreso now

Taylor , Platt , Kelly (AnOther)
Halliday, McDonald , Smallwood , Pattinson, Oduor
Cook, XXXX?

Then there’s 451
Then there’s 4231

Fill in the boxes!

 

We'll need Gilly about the 60th minute when the oldies' legs start wobbling

 

My thoughts too.

 

He’s changed his tune

 

No Stubbs???

 

No, ney, never.
No ney never no more, will we see AG play no never no more (Hopefully).

 

Agyei. he can play up top or play as a winger. He would be perfect.

im really impressed with pattinson. Thats a quality signing in a position we were weak in.

We get agyei in and i think autos is very doable

 

Omg, yes AB . well spotted. That wasn’t a test ….my mistake!

 

According to Park he’s a no? No idea why he believes so?

 

Exactly my thinking. Smallwood and MacDonald to compete for one role alongside Pattison with a hopefully rejuvenated Walker in front of them. Chapman/Oduor on the left, two newcomers for the right, Cook up top with another signing as backup with Oliver. That would make me pretty optimistic.
