Paterson isn't gonna be starting every week is he though. Just pointing out he's not the dross everyone seems to be making him out to be. Also I'd take him in my squad over Palmer.

Paterson got as many goal contributions last season as O'Hare did in his best, and double what Palmer has ever managed. lol.

Played plenty in attacking mid, which is what Rudoni/Torp essentially do in Lampards system

but we're skint though, someone should tell him

If we actually had another winger in the squad maybe. But we don't. Not many managers are going to be able to consistently win games without their two most productive attackers and playing an unfavoured formation.

Just feels like we're in limbo at the minute, Lampard can't play the way he wants without a left winger so it's just a waiting game until EMC and Wright are back.

Don't even think it's about the long term plan, it's just having the money. Leicester's training ground cost £100m. Unless we get a proper sugar daddy our best bet will be getting promotion and the riches it brings.

I think that will be the case for a long time. You look at the facilities Leicester have compared to us, ours look Stone Age in comparison. Villa aren’t far away and are in the champions league. Even Brum have all their plans for the American investment. Until we get back to the premier league...

wonder if there's a relegation release clause in there I always assumed he would be off to Madrid or Barca in a few years, this has surprised me

Why do we send them all to scotland? It's such an odd choice.

stop being so doom and gloom :ROFLMAO:

He's played a lot as an attacking mid which is probably similar to want Lampard wants from his more advanced midfielders

He's potentially playing CM.

I'm sure if you look at games we've played 4 at the back he'd be way ahead of Dasilva.

Can't have a Pato compilation without this goal surely!

He's better than Dasilva. You'd hope the plan is to shift Dasilva and have Bidwell be the backup.

Also why would we be mocking another club? 44 apps and 13 goal contributions last year, he's not some clogger.

He's hardly going to spoil the official announcement. Don't think we can read anything into it either way, "It's just training for the moment" is a statement of fact until the contract is signed.

I saw it as a midfield 3 with Sheaf holding and Eccles/Rudoni/Torp pushing forward

These are funding the Paterson signing, fill your boots guys
