Confirmed Signing Nathan Patterson

[davek]

£34m for 2 unproven full backs
Brave or stupid?

Reckless.

I think he's been panicked into paying over the odds.

 

[Nymzee]

Can’t believe Marcel is overpaying for these young full-backs

 

[ToffeeTim]

I heard it’s €10m + €15m in addons.

Nowhere has 25m euros been mentioned

 

[davek]

Minimal issues with this one, Scottish international, 20 years old, plays in a position we've needed to get sorted for quite some time, he's decient.

Decent going forward; defensively a basket case.

That should have been a £5M punt at most.

rangers will be sashing it up and pissing themselves at Everton's expense...again.

I;d like toi be able bot to hate a player we just signed.

This lad is signed as a defender, and Ilm telling you right now he cannot defend. Positionally he is utterly clueless and he likes to spend all his time in the opposition half.

Imagine a non-defender like Alexander-Arnold and then imagine a player with 10x less ability.

Your opinion is he can’t defend. That’s fine. Just know that the large majority of our opinions happen to be that you don’t know what your talking about.

Strap ons.

It’s a panic move from Moshiri

It’s a vote of no confidence in the manager

 

[Oasis1878]

Never seen him play personally, but only seem to be good things mentioned (other than Dave). Could turn out to be a steal…

 

[Cow kecks]

Gamble like, but I'd rather be going after kids with high ceilings than absolute wasters like iwobi

Plus, I don't think it's possible to be worse than Coleman so hea an improvement to the first team

Do you think he's going to replace Coleman at left back? I thought the kid plays on the right but who knows with this manager, I mean he seems to see Seamus as left footed.

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

£14M for a sub from an ale house league.

No wonder the club's a financial basket case.

Of the many, many, many, many, many examples of this club being a financial basket case, I’m not sure paying what is a pretty middling fee these days, for a 19yo player in a problem position is the prime example you think it is.

 

[john jako]

This lad is the future. Be the best full back in Europe in a few years.

 

[Carloblues]

That should have been a £5M punt at most.

Dave I know you like to believe it's 2005 when benitez was a decent manager, but these prices are miles away, 5m gets you nothing in 2021/22

 

[BlueStevie35]

Rangers fans are gutted to lose him, they’ve wanted him playing more over Tavernier

 

[UltraVires]

we need a RB, this kid comes highly rated and could be here for a decade if all goes well. The fee might be higher than some would like but in modern terms it’s not a lot and if he’s on a 5 year deal then it’s virtually nothing per year on our books.

No they're not. Go and check their forums: by and large they cant believe they got the cash Everton are paying for him and know that the player they have, Tavernier, is 10x the player Patterson is.
