Is it me or does Paterson look a little overweight?

Just a question, not an attack on him as I think he's been awesome for us recently, but tonight I saw Dave Edwards out pace him and he seemed slow and sluggish tonight and a bit heavy legged.

Yes I mentioned this earlier definitely looked sluggish and carrying weight unless he had extra clothing on to keep warm? :laughing6:

Think it's just his build mate, if he was overweight or unfit he wouldn't be anywhere near the team, Warnock, Blackwell and Jespson wouldn't have none of it. I wouldn't read to much into it tbh, he's never going to be the quickest.

Didn’t look match fit tbh
Was yard off the pace but that’s to be expected considering the injury he had?
Mendez-Laing looked yard short imo didn’t look explosive over the first few yards

Not match fit but still getting up to speed. think he's just stocky build. Def not a midfielder for me though.

I thought he was mediocre at best.

I thought the same and I also thought Mendez looked overweight. I think 5 layers of clothing plus that Lime kit did not make anyone look like they had a 6 pack. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I would've said he's not a full back and plays better going forward. :laughing6:

Bit of a learning curve for Patterson,the Scottish Prem this ain't. I don't think we'll see him at his best until next season.A bit like Hoilet was last season.
