    His parents need a good slap, at 14 years old he was already at one of the best clubs for him to progress with , as a keeper you'll be really lucky to be starting for a premier league club before your in your early 20s if not later, so why go to a premier league club only to spend the early part of your career at l1 and l2 clubs on loan. Patterson is a prime example of been given the chance, has already been linked with PL clubs and could even be there with us next season, when was the last time any of the top club brought a keeper through to play first team football, they are renowned for buying the top keepers available at the time, his parents could probably be responsible for helping him make the worst decision of his career and he's only 14 ffs

    Why would a keeper leave the club that produced the current England keeper and a current u21 keeper.

    Daft.

    My secret source suggests we've more than tripled our money on Lihadji.

    We paid nowt for him, so I'd suggest your source's maths is poor


    £0 x 3 = £0

    I got told £4mill the other day and posted that here, hence I’m annoyed it’s undisclosed as wanted to see how good this info was ha.

    Life changing money for his family, I suppose. As has been said it’s probably the wrong decision on a football and financial level in the long term. Too much too young for the young lad as well probably. Motivation must be difficult when you feel you’ve already made it.

    There’s always exceptions to the rule and I hope Bell proves to be one.

    Blimey. Well played the club if so.

    Official sources listed the initial transfer as undisclosed. We didn't get him for free.

    Considerably less than what Nads said, that should give you a rough estimate.

    [
    Start with Qatari Riyals and work backwards. You'll get closer.

    My knowledge of Qatari Riyals is non existant, so there's not much chance I'm afraid
