I know it's only a friendly but Patterson looks very good and promising!
Did he have a ton on this,?feel for the poster @Defoe_9 unlucky mate
This is Coventry's second 11 on the park for the 2nd half
Helander can’t start next week
I get that people don’t like him and he’s a huffy bastard at times. But reading the comments you’d think he was just some expendable striker and not the player who really drove us on during our best spells of the last 2 seasons, or the player with whom his loss of form saw more or less the collapse of our entire season.
Watching on phone via streaming channel it def did go to Villa v Leeds mate
Yep.Did he have a ton on this,?
That’s because if we repeat that 1st half showing in our domestic games then we’ll do nothing this seasonSo far:
Played: 4
Won: 4
Goals For: 10
Goals Against: 0
If you read the comments on here at half time you'd be forgiven for thinking we'd be as well just throwing in the towel and locking the gates!
Can definitely see Barjonas fulfilling the Andy Halliday utility man role this year if we don’t send him out on loan again.
Thought Patterson showed up well there as well.
Decent workout all in, which is what you want from pre-season ultimately.
He’s blind.100% sure collum is disabled.
Well i'm happy with our pre season, let's see next sat before we kick off so to speak.
FF would find faults in the Brazil 1970 team
What the assist for the 1st goal?Despite another questionable episode from Morelos that was a pleasing run out, 4 clean sheets regardless of them being friendlies is brilliant.
He in myGood Break, Patterson has done well
At last an attacking full back that doesn't give the ball away often.I really like the look of Patterson, hope to see a lot more of him this season
Covers the ground very well and has consistently got into good areas in the final third every time I've seen him. Also love the fact he obviously seems to have a bit about him too in having a nibble at the ref about the lack of a pen and then leaving one on the opponent at the end there to stop their counter attack
Forget all the theatrics, he had a good game. Unselfish, link up play, just needed a goal. Which I'm sure he will save for next weekend! Then we can all love him again, huffs and allAs a player I love the guy. When he's on his game, he can ragdoll just about any centre back you can think of, he scores all kinds of goals, and we will be very lucky to find a replacement near as good.
But at the same time, we shouldn't let our admiration for him hide his glaring deficiencies. Every season so far he has had spells he looked hopeless in front of goal, but worse also spells he blatantly disrespected his team mates with either huffs or indiscipline. He's been great for us, but by God we've been every bit as good for him.
Running up the tunnel in a huff today in a friendly was ridiculous. And no matter how much I love the guy, it needs called out as not good enough.
Morelos comments get painted as either fanboy stuff or as hating him.
You can actually criticise but like him too.
In fairness, they were awful in the first half but they deserve all the plaudits going for their second half performance.So far:
Played: 4
Won: 4
Goals For: 10
Goals Against: 0

Ooft!Yep.
Are you on glue! We have a young striker worth 8 figures scored 14 goals in Europe last year.You’re ignoring the critical point though.
We simply cannot afford an Alfredo Morelos who only scores 1 or two goals in 20 odd games.
If he stays and is our main striker, then we don’t have much of a chance of winning the league if his 2020 output continues as it has.
Yeah and it showed, the first half team were far more organised.
As per fn usualThought the officiating was absolutely brutal.
Alfie had lots of touches and never gave the ball away once.Despite another questionable episode from Morelos that was a pleasing run out, 4 clean sheets regardless of them being friendlies is brilliant.
I have to be honest with you.
I haven’t seen anything that says Alfredo is expendable. He isn’t and he’s single handedly hauled us through so many big games.
which is why it’s so galling to see his current slump. Actually to call it a mere slump is doing it a disservice.
Expendable ? No. But also not beyond criticism. Fanboys seem to act like any criticism of Alfredo is doing a disservice to what he has achieved for us in the past.
I know what he can do for us, and we need him to start doing it again.
Rather than telling you what I really think, I'll respectfully say I disagree with you.That’s because if we repeat that 1st half showing in our domestic games then we’ll do nothing this season
Infuriating mate and I love his passion at being removed from a FRIENDLY! he lives for goalsSome of them are either dim, or just vindictive. There’s a number of players I’d be looking at before him, some of them are on the protected list though.
3 points in the bag!

The manager having a laugh about Alfredo there.
Just the panty wetters on here that couldn't see it.
