Callum Paterson has done brilliantly, hasn't he?
"You've only got to look at the stats the amount of ground he covers, he's just a tremendous lad really.
"He'll play anywhere for me, do anything. In the old fashioned days I used to say he'd run through a brick wall for me. But if I asked him to, he probably would!

"It's great for him tonight because he does work really hard, the way he runs and puts defenders under pressure.
"I don't honestly know what we'd do without him at the minute. Gary (Madine) was on the bench today, he's only done a couple of days (training) this week, Ken Zohore has started training as well.
"So I'm really glad we've no midweek games to be honest."
You could have won by a bigger margin today...?
"I went for Mendez-Laing and Murph because I thought we could get in behind them in those areas with Paterson's work. And on another day we could have scored two or three and made it a little easier, but not to be.
"Mendez hasn't played for six months but he did enough so they knew they had somebody to deal with and takes their mind off things. And with Murphy they replaced the right back at half time so it was a good decision really.
"In midfield I thought we did well. And at the back apart from Mozza not scoring a goal, I didn't see a mistake. When will he score a goal?
"The way we're defending away from home, it looks like it'll have to be! We work hard away from home and then concede three goals in 12 minutes, miss penalties, we can't do much more can we to lose a game?"
