The Patterson to Liverpool move seems strange to me. Leaving his boyhood club where he's a nailed on starter to be a back up doesn't seem like a good move to me. It also seems like a strange move for Liverpool considering his ability with the ball at his feet is probably the weakest part of his game. For us though, £12m would represent good business if we could bring Johannson (or someone of that level in) for around £1m. Matty Young is the future number 1 of this club and I'd want his route into the first team clear for a couple of years' time so no need to overspend in that position.
It'll be interesting to see the potential markets for loans that he would open up. You'd assume that both Bayern and Leipzig would trust us with their young players.
Tyrese Campbell apparently leaving Stoke on a free would anyone take him? Goal return isn’t great on paper but can’t say I’ve seen him much other than against us
I can see both sides on this one. Any fee is pure profit but like you I think good goalkeepers are hard to coms by. I appreciate the game has changed but I still think a top keeper is worth 10 points a seaaon. All the best teams are generally blessed with an elite keeper. I dont want us picking up a young lad who hasnt played much. If Patto goes we need to ensure it is an upgrade we get and that wont be cheap. Freebies wont cut it in my opinion.
I wouldnt have anyone from Stoke tbf mate, theres a reason they finished lower than us. Id have Gooch back though tbf, we should never have let him go
Birmingham have a few worth looking at, hall, James and paik, not sure on Huddersfield, Thomas looked a handful against us but we were dog **** both games, also like rudoni but not sure he’s what we need
Forgot about Bielik had injury issues hasn’t he? Seen a few suggesting Sanderson but I think it’s time to move on from him he’s not kicked on the way i though he would
Paul wanner would be one to look at from bayern, hes been on loan this season and he is highly highly rated in german football Pretty sure he played for bayern at 16 yrs old
