Think O’Brien does ok in that role can’t question his work rate but he’s limited on the ball. Would like to see how Dan Neil would do playing in that role ahead of a midfield 2. He’s got a great range of passing and vision
Quote from Johnson about Patterson: "He looks the part in terms of him filling the goal, and he’s got lovely agility. I never felt unconfident when the balls were coming into the box. He claimed a couple and, for a young goalkeeper, normally they’re good shot-stoppers because of the training they do, but it’s the box management. I thought his box management was excellent and he put his foot on a few good connections that could have been a bit risky." Also from the same article "Patterson was given an opportunity to start at Boundary Park, with Johnson receiving rave reviews about his progress from staff at the Academy of Light." Rave reviews from the staff at the Academy of Light, highly rated as I said.
“Bursting”! Not exactly sure ones fast enough to “burst!” Wish he was as, IMO, he has the brains and Ability to do it
