Any1 heards we are looking to bring Patterson back.
08 Apr 2026 23:53:39
Can't see that happening ows, not something I'd like happening either.
09 Apr 2026 01:06:33
If the Naderi rumours are true, then we need to be staying away from injury prone players like Patterson, as Naderi already had a bad record and looks like a bad mistake already.
Maybe, we should actually try players who aren't prone to constant injuries. 100% against this move.
09 Apr 2026 07:04:23
We will be liked with about 100 Rb this summer. It was Luca Stephenson yesterday.
09 Apr 2026 07:05:55
Big Jim, add Rommens to that lost.
09 Apr 2026 07:19:55
Sick of the sentimental stuff way Patterson we robbed Everton blind. He will be making a packet himself. He's played less than 80
Pro club games and is 25 this year. Shouldn't be anywhere near him for the fee and wage that he will command.
09 Apr 2026 07:22:37
John Rommens doesn't have a bad injury record. He has missed a total of 8 games through injury in his career. 6 games in 1 with an ankle injury. Naderi missed 35, 3 x torn muscles among other muscle injuries.
09 Apr 2026 07:25:06
The problem is that many many young players now have a history of injury:
Partly down to the science improving:
Is Naderi even confirmed as out for the season?
Think you are over reacting, BlueJim.
09 Apr 2026 09:11:15
imo I think Luca replacing Tav and Lissah replacing Meghoma would be 2 not so expensive decent signings. Both have played well this season, you would think they would be even better with us. Just my opinion.
09 Apr 2026 10:24:15
We've scouted Diogo Travassos multiple times. Right Back from Sporting Lisbon currently on loan at Moreirense.
09 Apr 2026 11:20:47
Gdog, I don't think it's overreacting since this is a boy we paid over the top for anyway and one quick check and we can see these past 3 years his injuries have been ramping up and missing big chunks of games.
So, no, I want us staying away from players with these kinds of records.
John, when I looked at Rommens, he hadn't had many injury periods or missed that many games.
09 Apr 2026 11:23:15
Interest in Fredrick Sjovold. 💙
09 Apr 2026 11:43:00
Plenty would have signed Shankland who has missed nearly 100 days injured in the last 2 seasons.
Unfortunately it's part and parcel of football.
09 Apr 2026 11:50:05
Rommens has a bone issue in his spine, missed games when he arrived, been out twice since.
09 Apr 2026 11:55:55
This was well explained to us by a very good poster, as very common in young players. Let's hope this is not the case and just a blip.
09 Apr 2026 12:26:32
Would love Patterson back. ✌️👍
09 Apr 2026 12:27:41
The injuries could be a barrier to bringing Nathan back, but ability wise we couldn't do much better. Stephenson is a midfielder converted to a wing back in a back 5. Does he really fit with what we need for our right back? I can't comment on Lissah, but that's somebody suggesting now that he would be cover for left back, although previously stated as a right back.
Another right footed left back, we don't need.
09 Apr 2026 12:38:57
Since signing for Everton just over four years ago, Patterson has missed over 400 days through injury
He has participated in 66 games in over four seasons for Everton. Not for me.
09 Apr 2026 12:56:21
John, the issue Rommens has, I assume, showed up in his medical. Can only assume the medical staff think it's something they can deal with.
09 Apr 2026 13:19:51
Chelsea might have 20 right backs on their books, maybe have a chat, btw anyone know where Aarons is?
09 Apr 2026 13:22:21
Rommens definitely has missed more than 6 games in his career. Did he not miss the first 4 or 5 when he arrived?
09 Apr 2026 13:23:45
Lissah, I'd be bringing in as a rb. He can play anywhere along the back line, but better at rb though, I'd love us signing him, with a more experienced rb, Lissah would be a very good back up, but wouldn't be surprised if he our number one rb very soon, Swansea player mind.
09 Apr 2026 14:29:54
Bluebear, is that the left back from Dundee United? He was built like a centre back, but I thought he looked a good player when we played them last week. I liked the look of him.
09 Apr 2026 14:39:25
NP is not robust enough for any team. He has only managed 99 games in 6 years. We need a solid defender that can manage 40-60 games a season. NP will never be that player. Robustness must be a key metric when scouting a player.
Yes, injuries can happen to any player and do, but there are plenty of players who get injuries but over their career manage a high volume of games. These are the players that give you success.
09 Apr 2026 14:58:19
Not the Dundee United player, plays in Norway, cost 6/8m, this could come down to money coming in from transfer out, 25/30m will be spent without transfer out, it's a good time for Rangers fans. 💙
09 Apr 2026 15:21:38
Bluebear, cheers mate. Name was quite similar to the Dundee United left back mate.
What position is this guy?
09 Apr 2026 16:14:11
Not doubting your info, John. Rohl said it was his Quad. 👍
09 Apr 2026 16:49:21
But it's another injury fork.
09 Apr 2026 18:04:04
No worries bud. 👍
10 Apr 2026 00:13:34
He's a rb fella. 💙
10 Apr 2026 00:53:07
Bb69, cheers mate.
10 Apr 2026 10:13:27
Yateley, what is your rationale for bringing Patterson back, 400 days out injured since leaving Rangers?
10 Apr 2026 13:06:32
John, there isn't a rationale, mate. It would be like Roofe all over again. I'll never understand the calls for Patterson. I get players get injured now and again, but his injuries are just constant, and I feel it'll be the same until he retires.
Some players' bodies just can't handle the intensity of top football, and unfortunately for Patterson, he's one of them. I honestly wouldn't take him on a free.
10 Apr 2026 13:25:50
Good response from u bb.
Best is Everton, value Patterson circa 10 million.
Not just Roofe, add Sterling, he lander Jack Davi's, Cortez Matondo, mb Rommens, Naderi Olosen, obviously most only signed as they r injured, we have to stop this.
Best used phrase on here xxxx starts in first 11 if fit, never fit.
10 Apr 2026 16:12:25
Would it be fair to say we only get these players who are very good ability wise, because of the injury problems they have?
We wouldn't get Roofe or Sterling if they were 💯 fitness wise, I don't think.
Same with Rommens if he does, in fact, have a bad injury issue.
He looks like he'd cruise it in any top league. I said when we signed him it was like watching Numan when I watched him online.
He's pure class, and I was surprised we got him when he played his first 2 games, but obviously the injury issues have put off bigger clubs.
