We wouldn't have lost our last two games with CP in the team. Think i can say that with 99% confidence. Not a go at Neilson but Paterson single handedly turned so many losses to draws and draws to wins for that team, it almost gave us a false position, if you know what i mean. Have we ever missed a single player more after he left? Contenders i guess are Robbo, Weir, Naysmith, McCann, Cameron, Gordon, Hartley, Pressley that i can think of. All players we missed and who left gaps but did any of them carry the team as much CP did this one? Most of them left decentish teams.

main Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Despite admittedly being a bit raw defensively, people who regularly called him shite on here is one of the most staggering things I had to read on a football forum. Easily the best RB we've had since the last century. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DG_HMFC Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Probably something I've already posted on this thread, but I am definitely one of the guilt ones who underestimated Callum's worth to the team. He wasn't great defensively, and that's what I based my opinion on, but when I look at what we have replaced him with there's no doubting the guy actually was a good defender as well as being an unbelievable attacking full back. Huge miss to the team, but I wish him nothing but the best at Cardiff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me also, so much so that he takes the championship by storm, with Cardiff getting promoted and he exceeds the 10 million transfer fee that Andy Robertson generated .A 15% spin off to us would be nice.

Watt-Zeefuik Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Pleasing to see him finally playing in a 3-4-3. My biggest complaint with Neilson's tactics is that he never tried that when we had CP in the team. A back line of Rossi, Souttar, and Ozturk with Rherras and CP as wingbacks with Kitchen and Djoum in the middle would have been a great base. (We still would haven needed new strikers, but imagine we had that backline and midfield now with Lafferty and Isma in the team?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indianajones Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 I'd have zero qualms about starting Paterson up front if we still had him. He could play in goals for all I care. Said it numerous times on here before, i miss this guy a lot. He actually cares when he plays. Hope he has a hugely successful career.

Guest Paul Allen Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Apologies, not adding anything knew to the thread, just wanted to post that I've seen Cardiff a couple of times this season and they look like an impressive side who'll definitely be pushing for automatic promotion. I think they play 3-5-2 and I figured Paterson would have a big job dislodging the athletic-looking Peltier from the right wing-back position, but their left back Bennett went off injured against Millwall at the weekend so Peltier moved over to the left and Calum came on to play on his natural right back position. He floated in an inch perfect cross to Hoilett at the back post in the first half, went close with a trademark towering header in the second half, and went close with a left-foot snapshot near the end. The only other thing I noticed was his hair is going quite grey (unless my eyes were deceiving me) for a guy his age haha! Still an HMFC hero and great to see him back in action. ?

letsalldothebeattie Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Great to see Callum back in first team football. Was very surprised to hear he came on so early at the weekend but not surprised to see him have such a good game as well. Delighted he’s back in the Scotland squad and hopefully Mackay will end the stupidity of playing a left back at right back and stick Paterson back in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC CP also negotiated a sell-on clause for us, despite him having no obligation to do so. So if he gets a big money move we get a nice payday, basically entirely due to his sense of loyalty and gratitude to HMFC. PHM in the extreme.

Kiwidoug Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 With the silly money in England, if he makes a real go of it in Cardiff he could become a £15m player and we would score a decent chunk of that.
