Godden isn’t comparable to Patterson. Godden was younger, in a position where you can play older, had longer on his contract, was on the up and performing. Patterson is Waghorn Mk2

Have it on rather good authority now the agreement is imminent.

Loan with a view to permanent.

Fuck me-hope this is bollocks.

If it does happen hope he doesn’t turn into a Keith O’Neil/ David Prutton/Tim Sherwood etc

If he plays anywhere near the form Garry Mac/Denis Wise got to in their 30’s with us I’ll be pleasantly surprised.

This idea that all 31 year olds are like Waghorn is ridiculous. I have no idea whether Patterson is worth it or not. However, most footballers go on to be ok in their 30s and there have been plenty of over 30s we have bought who have turned out to be excellent signings. Some players fall away quickly around 30 but most are fine for at least another 3-4 years.

Is anyone with Championship experience at the age of around 30 now going to be Waghorn mk2 based on one player?

Is every Dutch midfielder we sign from Eredivisie the next Hamer? Let’s sign them all up!

Except Godden was decidedly not on the up. He had been deemed surplus to requirements at Peterborough and was squeezed out by Toney and Eisa.

It turned out well for him and us but we paid a repeorted £750k on a Peterborough reserve in League One. I don’t know what this means about Paterson but as for Godden your assessment of where he was in 2019 is just wrong.

Comparisons to Waghorn are mental.

Comparisons to Sherwood and O’Neill are another level (genuinely no offensive FB

He isn’t a crock, he isn’t past his prime and if (and it’s still a big if) he comes here it’s certainly not for the money.

He’ll add to our squad. Don’t see that as a bad thing.

The question for me: Now COH is out is Yesterdays midfield our strongest I’d say yes so would Paterson get into it and improve it imo yes. If MR decided to nab him fine by me.

He’d moved from NL to L2 to L1 and scored 14 goals the season before. He was improving his standing, which he continued with us scoring 14 in fewer games then getting promoted to the Championship.

Patterson has bummed around a bunch of Championship clubs being consistently let go because he can’t get in the side. First at Forest, then Huddersfield didn’t take up the option to buy after a loan, then again at Brizzle with rumoured attitude issues where he was loaned out again before being let go to Swansea where he’s been bomb squadded after more attitude issues and looks like being let go for a knock down price well before his contract is up.

Peterborough got Ivan Toney in and Godden got dropped to the bench after a brilliant start to the season. It’s not even close to the same.

As in he’s a journeyman player living off a purple patch and only getting worse. Waghorn at least seems to have a decent attitude.

Waghorn had 10 the season before we signed him and 16 before that.

Last season was by far Paterson’s best ever for goal involvements.

Not quite. Peterborough got Mohammed Eisa in to displace Godden.

As for Paterson his reputation at Bristol City was excellent. Fans loved him. He ran out his contract and moved on. No point pretending otherwise.

You're normally good with stats and using them in context but I think you know this one is meaningless.

It's the sort of stat I would expect from someone else. It's likethe one about that Stoke player who scored a goal in one substitute appearance and as a result had a better scoring record than Godden last season.

Well Hilssner takes all kind of flak for being paid £200k a year for doing nothing, but according to you it’s a small, nominal sum, so what’s the big problem?

He scored 5 in his final year at Derby. He only really had one quite good goalscoring year at this level with Ipswich. He's normally a 1 in 5 games striker. He was clearly on the decline when we signed him and sounds like we basically paid well over the odds salary wise for him. He genuinely didn't have one good game for the club. Paterson would be an improvement on what we have. Would like us to try for Ayoub Assal at Wimbledon.
