I seen this kid play about 4 years ago at academy level for Arsenal 3 times in a season, my son was on the opposite team. Patino was prob the most raved about kid on the academy scene in the south of england at the time. In all three games if you hadn't heard about him, you'd had never have guessed, he was at best average, lacked physicality and was easily bullied, came off 'injured' in 2 of the games, mind you he was getting some heavy treatment, seemed just to shrink and hide as soon as he got kicked up in the air, which was usually 2 mins in to the game. Great talent, but fragile in body and mind, was my take away, reminded me of Josh Mchechran.
