    Do they? I guess that’s the luxury of watching him every game - opposition fans also thought Jobe was bang average. His distribution is absolutely abysmal and he really struggles to command his box, we can’t have a goalkeeper who’s scared to come off his line when we’re going to be conceding significantly more corners and free kicks around the box imo.

    Guess it’s all just opinions mate, my Leeds mate thinks he’s class.

    I wouldn't be too worried if it turned out Patto was starting against West Ham..but as been said, the lad is decent in the Championship...I don't think he is the long term answer in the Prem....I've always thought he doesn't command his area or make demands of his defence the way really top class keepers do. That said, his contribution to our promotion was there for all to see

    I still think there's a good chance of this Petrovic deal coming off, we move quick, I don't see the fee being a stumbling block for us, we are 100% in talks, Sacha said we had to finalise it which is probably why the other journos are saying 'not advanced' yet

    I agree he has flawes and we need an upgrade for the prem but that save in the final, not many keepers in the champ making that. As I said to other lad, my Leeds mate thinks he’s quality

    Sacha was specific on contract length. It’s not a risk you take that

    To be fair I like we are being ruthless, no place for sentiment now. These new players will push others to a new level hopefully

    Aye. It’s sad after all they’ve done but we’ll hopefully move past Patterson, O’Nien, Neil, Roberts etc

    Sink or swim mate. I think Patti for example became too uncomfortable last year, guaranteed to start etc. looked heavy before he got a rocket. Just my opinion but can’t have players comfortable

    Data isn’t necessarily who he is though. Data is just how he did in a specific time period. Defo had an up and down season last time out but the idea that he isn’t a champ keeper isn’t credible based on what we saw from him over three fulls reasons in that league. There’s growth (both technical and mental) to come from him too. Maybe our timelines no longer match but he’s miles away from the bum he’s being painted as.

    A good mate of mine works with Elliot Embletons dad or uncle, can’t remember which now and he reckons Chris Rigg is on his way out.
    No idea how he would know this and I’m sure it’s bollocks

    I didn’t say he isn’t a championship keeper. I said he wasn’t a prem one. I also said he isn’t in the top 5 for champ keepers.

    for me he’s a very solid champ keeper

    Corrected that bit. Apologies. Still being done down too much based on a few radars, mind.

    Anthony Patterson is a mid table championship goalkeeper who occasionally can pull off a world class save

    Not appropriate for a Prem side that

    I wanted a new GK regardless of what division we were in. Patterson has been a good player here but we can do a lot better and looks like we will :emoticon-0148-yes:
